Too bad. If the ship was 30-40 € without bundle I would have considered buying it (I love BB-brawling). But this...meh. Maybe I get lucky and win one with the papership-contest, but the competition is strong^^
-
I think I will see how it works out. Also, it's good to see new maps (and not repainted ones) and I like the new flags. Anyone playing Tier8+ and can comment, if the changes of torp-detection and ruddershift have impact on top-tiers?
-
let me guess, your favourite map is north? Cute idea!
-
It would be enough to create a kind of soft "smokering", so the fog at the borders would be thicker, maybe more white compared to the center (without changing the ship-visibility in the center of course) I don't think glowing smoke would be necessary.
-
Isn't that the opposite to the awareness-skill (that every DD should have)? If you are spotted, you are outside of the smoke-area, or someone is 2km (or about 7km for cruisers with sonar) close to you. So I don't really see the reason for this icon. What would be better? let us see borders of the smoke-clouds more clearly, so we avoid sailing out of them.

I don't know why any BB-captain would hate CV...they are great. They spot, they keep enemy BB's busy and may even force them to show their sweet sides. Of course an enemy CV is something you have to be aware of, but it's not a big difference, as you need companions against DD's and (multiple) cruisers too. So keep their AA close and watch your minimaps for planes coming your direction. No CV would try to attack you, if you got 2 cruisers next to you and if he tries, he maybe get 1-3 torpedoes wet...and that was before 5.1. I never understand why it was necessary to nerf them to hell.
-
There are some points I agree with iChase, but not all of them. For BB to controll a scoutplane besides maneuvering, target selecting and watching the air for enemy bombers it would be too much. On the other hand, some manual AA-mechanic for cruisers would do some good, especially for the US-tree. My main problem is the way how WG handles balancing: nerf the most played class dead, until noone plays it and then, after a few months, buff it and repeat with the new most played class. I'm afraid now it's BB's turn, because the strong nerf of the CV was unnecessary (you had to watch your surroundings and react to enemy bombers BEFORE they arrive..now I can see US BB's avoiding torps during the drop)...and surprise, the BB had nothing to fear (only some roaming DD's, maybe). When BB's are nerfed and DD's are buffed...guess who is next? Yes, play cruisers as long as they are dominant.

Deutsche Kreuzer sind eine Zumutung !
Myrmix replied to Dimli_Gloinssohn's topic in Allgemeine Diskussionen
Dann fahr sie nicht. Deutsche Kreuzer auf dem niedrigen Tiers, sind extrem dünn gepanzert, verglichen mit ihren Kontrahenten. Dafür kriegen sie gute Geschwindigkeit, hervorragende Feuergenauigkeit gekoppelt mit ausgezeichneter Reichweite, 6km-Torpedos (für sowas würde eine Cleveland töten). Der Haken ist, dass die Kreuzerlinie sehr fordernd ist, weil ein Fehler schnell deinen Tod bedeuten kann. Wenn du davor noch nie Kreuzer gefahren bist, wirst du dir sehr schwer tun, vielleicht schaust du dir lieber die Japaner (exzellent bis tier 10) oder Amerikaner (zumindest bis tier 6) an -
I'm mostly a BB-player, but I'm can't agree with OP. Compared to other classes, BBs only get sunk, when you mess something up as captain. If you swim around alone, get too close to a DD, don't watch your surroundings for torpplanes or just drive broadside for the whole game, you get sunk. On the other hand, I would love to see the other classes be like that...skillbased. Smart cruiser-captains get sunk, because some lucky rng-shell by a BB blow them up, even though they play smart, angle and try to show very little side. A DD and/or his torps get spotted much too early, just because a scout plane happens to be above them at that moment. A whole squad of carrier-planes can get caught by the same ship-launched planes and even making a retreat impossible.

Looks promising

While I hate fire in a BB, it's absolutely ridiculous to not reward the dmg (that can be quite substancial). devs say, cruisers are underperforming, and how they try to fix it? not rewarding damage?! wtf.

Poll about bundles, player spending and the reputation of Wargaming EU.
Myrmix replied to MrFingers's topic in General Discussion
We are discussing this problem at the moment in this thread: http://forum.worldofwarships.eu/index.php?/topic/39079-can-we-please-push-for-clansfleetsetc-integration-into-this-game/ Nice to see, that there is some reaction from the french too. -
When I read about the contest, I was asking myself: what IS the best battleship? Of course none, because every ship has it's weaknesses (in the game at least) and so I tried to combine the best parts of my favourite ships

Myrmix replied to MrFingers's topic in General Discussion
Yes, that's true, but it's a good example how to get people to spend money by taking them seriously. -

To be honest, I would buy bundles, if I see effort, dedication and communication by the developers. Here's an example: I buyed the 40€ package for Star Citizen and a lot of people put much more money in that (barely finished) game. Why? Because they have the feeling to be part of something. There is non-stop communication between devs and playerbase and they listen and answer to them. In most of the WG-forums (maybe Ru is more lucky) the devs and staff are shielded by the community-managers, so they don't have to put up with us. Sure, there are a lot of trolls and raged kids, but also people with honest criticism and really good suggestions to make this game great. If I can see Wargaming (and the companies working for them) loving this game as much as we do (and it has soo much potential), I would be happy to support them. But if i buy a bundle now, I support bad communication, halfhearted events and fixes/improvements that seem more like a shot in the dark than listening to the community. -
This. Maybe the devs think, the CA would support BB better, if they make them sluggisher, but that won't happen...it will end up like you said. more sniping and frustrated BB-players.

Sind das die Piloten, die da verbrennen?^^

I think the upgrade to detect torps earlier will not be available for BB, but for cruisers, that would force more teamplay into the game (a BB without support should be weak against anything but cruisers and other BB)

WG are you trying to sink your own game?
Myrmix replied to anonym_T3XTXn9riZRR's topic in General Discussion
god, i wish i would be. maybe could sneak out some goodies. -

Myrmix replied to anonym_T3XTXn9riZRR's topic in General Discussion
N1- who cares? you are able to ignore the anime-event completely. N2- just because you are lacking skill to expect destroyer-attacks at certain points and changing speed/course to make it harder for them to hit you; and lacking knowledge about the spotting-mechanic in the game, doesn't mean the class is OP Warships sure has some problems, but yours are easily solved by reading the guides on the newcomer-section or just searching for "world of warships tutorial" on youtube. -
Special : 12-15 December: Combat Lessons
Myrmix replied to _falcon007_'s topic in General Discussion
...and 1000 doubloons and 1 week premium. neat. -
I'm curious how the devs get in contact with feedback from their playerbase. is it a one-way from communitymanagers who show them subjects in the forums, or do they look at the forums themselves? Also, do they get input only from RU or from every server (especially eu with the largest playerbase)
