I am usualy more succesfull at shooting Citadells in the ammo magazines below the gun turrets. They are above the waterline, and for me they feel alot easier to hit than the underwater citadell.

But when you go full speed, and keep going full speed, you should create multiple puffs, just like DD do right? This doesnt happen with my Leander if i am correct.

I capped all 3 caps and was about to cap a 4th, but the team was unable to hold them.

I think less BB per game would be good for BB themself. Most BB get killed by BB fire, not torpedo's as many believe. I can tank 2 BB in a BB, but being focussed by 3-4 i will get sunk. It would also be better for CA, for the same reasons.

indeed, it could work like this. Would have been alot easier to have a toggle function on the planes, like the AA/secondaries "p" on ships.

Seems to me he has a point, RL doesnt say anything about the distance. So seeing you are RL'd might as well be by a BB far in the back, or a CA halfway. Only if the DD flanks it will be obvious.

You already know how mines are going to be implemented?

Thats what they call a self fullfilling prophecy, you believe you wil lose if you dont rush that cap, get sunk and you lose because your team lost a DD early.

Actualy, the game rewards bad gameplay. Had a battle where our only T10 Yamato ran straight into the enemy team and died a heroic death. We ofcourse lost the game, and he was rewarded a top 3 in the endscore

Dont blame the team for your failure, if you dont get any support in a cap, dont enter it. You are exactly the player he is talking about.

​Yes, i agree on having a more survivable "tanky" BB in the frontlines, but i would like it to be a tank in the World of Warcraft way: able to take a huge beating, but not deal much damage, just enough that you cannot ignore it. I think reducing the secondaries range to 7-8km would be reasonable for a t8, and keep the fire chance.

weird, if i check on German BB stats, they have the highest hit % of all

I dont get this dicussion. Many times i have seen players defend mods because of the arguement that "the data it shows, is already available in the game, its just easier to see". Player stats are always visible, unless hidden. I only have to ALT-TAB my game, type a name and i got his stats. During the countdown of a match me and my friends often check out enemy or friendly players. WG decides that we are able to see each others statistics, so blame WG for the toxic chat. And by the way, people dont get angry on players with bad stats, they get angry on players who play bad in their eyes.

I just got a Saipan, and i love it. Uptil now i have owned almost every cv i faced in air combat, and the torpedobombers own because they are so fast. I have not tried the divebombers yet, since i dont think i need a 3rd fighter sqd.

Detonations are just suprises, fun if you detonate some poor guy, crap when you get detonated. For my feeling, i detonate more than i get detonated.

Ok didnt read the entire topic, but does the OP know there are 2 mechanics to fight fires? I usualy REPAIR the first fire, just as the cruisers 2nd salvo is to hit, since while repair is active u cannot get a fire again. After that, the next fire i get, i wait to have 28 sec left on it, then use HEAL. It will completely heal that fire. After that, usualy REPAIR is back up to counter the next fire. With some luck i can make it to my next heal. I can keep my BB alive for quit some time, enought to kill at least 1, maybe 2 of those 3 cruisers, but never beat them (maybe Bismarck will)

and, if WG would control the MM to regulate winrates, there would not be <40% or 60%> players, all would be around 49%. The fact that these players exist, proves there is no MM rigging.

Ending up 1-3 but losing always? You are doing your damage too late, like leeching damage from the back. Its always those crap players who live longest because all they do is run away, not fighting for caps.

OP is spot on about the German BB, especialy the T7 and 8 (dont have the 9 and 10, cannot judge those). The Gneissenau with superior AA, and the Bismarck with Acoustic pulse are in fact heavily armored cruisers, they dont need support. Also both are fast and turn well so dodging torps is easy.

The only moving thing realy noticed was the Artillery fire control rangefinders, looks realy stupid if they dont move with the guns.

This. And how about giving ship in smoke a lower chance to get hit like the cammo does? For example 75% less chance to get hit?

Indeed i find them also a bit too strong for T8, range is equal to Yamato, and damage feels also as strong. Same goes for Gneissenau AA, that ship can get over 100 AA points.

"And that plane game" made me smile

Drigtol, here is a free and honest advice how to improve your winrate: Buy some (bordeline op) premium ship, find some players who also own one, make a division and profit. For me, buying the Leningrad raised my winrate by almost 1% over the last week.

there we go, a good player will never get in that situation.
