  1. Strategy games, in case you've missed, are very niche market compared to shooters of varying sorts. I mean, name alone implies putting at least pinch of thought
  2. Most people DON'T want to put any mental effort when playing games, WoWs or otherwise. Any "obligatory" tutorials, even with meaty rewards will simply discourage people and thus reduce WG potential revenue. Basically games for normies are bit more interactive version of TV, something you turn on and turn your brain off.

    What the PR PR fiasco cost wargaming?

    Precisely why WG will follow on with that kind of events, as spreadshiet will probably show Christmas 2019 being financial success and usual "haters gonna hate".

    Returning CV player...wtf happend to CVs?

    Just like showing broadside = bad memo?

    Whole ship, combined with lack of effective AA is broken A/F

    Get tier 6, where you actually might bump into actual AA to practice flak evasion and target selection. And then you can bring Ryujo into PvE operations as well. Or just set up training room against tier 4-5 ships with "long range AA" present and notice correlation between fancy black puffs and planes dying Its not like Enterprise was turned into "Belfast tier" by accident when she was repeatedly buffed over and over and over again Even more so as 0.8.7 also removed whole "lower tier planes" balancing feature from Kaga as well, which if not for overall lacking rockets and so-so dive bombers would be just as balans.

    CV REEEworked gameplay devolved into constant throwing at the red ones while weaving between flak bursts. While Midway have potentially the highest damage per torpedo run, aiming time and overall handling of these TB is... questionable. In comparison, Haku twin TB are joy to handle and drop stuff with. And Hosho AP bombs are hilariously bad, thats why you keep throwing torps left right and center. From tier 8 AP bombs turn into borderline gamebreaking "feature", able to shave half of the cruiser hp in one pass, assuming all three bombs hit in citadel.

    EA level I presume is (re)releasing the same game every year, asking full price for it and then throwing disturbing amount of "microtransactions", which are "entirely optional" if you play against bots. Obviously any progress or expenditure doesn't carry over from previous game

    Are you not having fun with glorious CV REEEwork? You can't. Though you might try setting full speed when controlling hull and then mark point somewhere with autopilot

    Which coal ship is best?

    You mean 16mm deck and upper hull, which will only increase overpens when caught broadside? Bow and stern are already 16mm, so no difference here. If anything, DD guns (finally) won't be entirely helpless against Smol. And whole IFHE REEEwork is nerf for everyone... everyone except battleships of lidl and glorious variety

    Any compensations for Narai sto0len stars ?

    I guess WG replaced CVs in operations/coop with battleship mostly to not embarass themselves with their glorious AI failing to carry out attack runs against moving targets... like they still do.

    Which is BS excuse, as since day 1 of the REEEwork AI could "operate" aircraft in training rooms. And WG barely, if at all improved AI aircraft handling since then.

    Tons of Coal with nothing to spend it on..

    And then you discover superior Aliexpress Gnevny class, with much more handy kind of smoke AND decent set of fishes with no setback once you get EM

    Tons of Coal with nothing to spend it on..

    God forbid you discovering Jaguar or whatever baguette DD is at tier 5 Still, what made Grem "OP" was stealth firing combined with "standard" firing penalty of 30m*[gun caliber], instead usual Russian 30m*[gun caliber]+2km. So, with CE you had stealth firing past 10km

    5 gulag tickets are needed for not enough bias I'm afraid.
  16. Daring class at tier 3 would be absolute nut
  17. Panocek

    Indomitable. Just plain bad.

    Only Midway have that luxury (among HE bombers) and that ship is tier 10 AND had dispersion nerf already applied Whole concept of carpet bombing with firecrackers is just bad.

    Or you can modelswap planes on carrier of your choice, certainly cheaper solution

    But its british, so dreams of grandeur of old should suffice for them Indy also uses 7.5tier rockets, 2100dmg compared to 2350 on Implacable/Audacious.

    Only if squadron size would bring hp/squadron to acceptable levels Saipan was testbed for Brit CVs to start with, to see if concept of small high hp squadrons can work. Except there is no slingshot with carpet bombers, while turning radius seems so atrocious you might as well go with single attack wing and call it a day.

    Why would they, as there are always people who buy their garbage?
