How to play CV. Easy way not to be useless.
Karkong_the_Impaler replied to UltraShirou's topic in General Discussion
I even posted an example that would improve his damage by a factor of 16 in Haku alone. So really, no matter how bad the advice is, it's still not the worst. -
How about giving US light cruisers AA that actually works?
Karkong_the_Impaler replied to ReverendFlashback's topic in General Discussion
They don't care. "Ohlolol, look a Colbert, let's focus him, I have planes that can deal with light cruisers hurr durr". And it's even the smart move to remove the close support for the DD, because the BBabies sail the A line again. Flip over one domino and you win the flank. Ah, let's not forget while being casually spotted, the BBs snipe you, too - one very badly aimed but lucky salvo is enough to ruin your day, because, you know, overmatch. The very same guys that keep bitching about HE spammers. And you know what? It's entirely unfun on the receiving end. The CV deceides you need to die, you die. Why the flying can a player deceide this? At the cost of a few planes? A player that usually dies last that can't even be sniped (hurr durr 50mm deck) and then, when they had the chance to do something about that protected gameplay, they gave them automated nuclear derp charges and made it so that one unguided torp salvo isn't enough to delete the in the first place. Ah, also one minute DCP immunity, so you can't ping them and by the way, just sailing into the border makes all guided torps miss anyway. How about you enlighten us how? -

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/U-Boot Also what I didn't know, U-Boats are strictly military. But the issue is solved thanks to WG https://wiki.wargaming.net/en/Ship:U-2501 Besides, it's not world of warboats anyway... -

Ok...ok, so - do you believe you are a good player? -

Afaik you do not have to stop shooting for the dual purpose guns to work on airplanes. You just get a higher AA DPM or more flak bursts if you have them. -

Any def AA should get a separate slot and actually do something apart from fireworks. -

Apart from the Type XXI submarines, all WWII and earlier submarines were basically submergeable torpedo boats. Just calling them boats is an english quirk. Other languages do make this distinction. -

I made an animated explanation on how CVs and AA currently interact - I hope it's enlightening: Also: US light cruisers, any nations light cruisers should be able to provide noteworthy AA and not only fireworks. -

Thinking about it, this "guide" is one step up from rolling your face on the keyboard. So yes, I believe it can improve gameplay of some players: -
Worst possible rare drop
Karkong_the_Impaler replied to Isoruku_Yamamoto's topic in General Discussion
Maybe in conjunction with a 10% reload nerf for all BBs, as we have way too many of these in the first place. -

Don't know how to tell you this, but... well, know your limits. It's not the team, it's you. -

Also, there is another T9 italian: Trashkent! I think it's the only russian ship above tier 8 that was actually a thing. -

Common sense should be enough. But yes, maybe this helps... -

Which forum members have you seen in random battles?
Karkong_the_Impaler replied to Cobra6's topic in General Discussion
Fixed it for you. -
Please, I really don't mind you disagreeing, I would even love to hear your opinion. With colberts slow shells I notice very often how far off my aim is when I look at the minimap and sometimes the aim on the minimap jumps very much with just a very small movement with the mouse as you enter and leave the aim assist area. You can even use that to shoot farther than your 12.8km range when you zoom out and just use the minimap, then you can still lead your target where the binocular won't go.
-
But... but what will everyone else think of me? I wouldn't drive a acid green ferrari even though I was colour blind, either! On a more serious side that's exactly what I am doing. But mostly I use ships that come with decent camo right out of the box, so it's a non issue for me.

This. @Aethervoxx I understand that you have a personal dislike for some players, but don't you feel petty and immature? I blame the modern inability to agree to disagree, anyone with a diverging opinion must be destroyed, cancelled or ridiculed, but I really would like to know why you downvoted the very sensible suggestion if there was a real reason.
-
If you show an enemy the golden shower of love, often you are better off using the minimap to lead the target instead of the binocular view

Soviet submarine K-1, Tier X -
... make sure to accidentally eat them all so you can enter the next coop game faster and are done with the annoying snow flake farming earlier. Yes, this is impolite towards your team, you could leave some of the torps for your teammates - but if too many die early, there are none left to finish the game sucessfully if only coop mains remain.
-
If you move your mouse over the target you see the atrocious things the inbuilt aim assist does to your aim when you watch the minimap. Especially when a target vanishes due to line of sight isues while you aim at his hull. Suddenly your reticle is far behind him without you moving the mouse one bit. I believe precision is only useful up to a certain level, then dispersion takes over. And even the most accurate ship (Tiger '59), you also need to factor in the enemy movement and the flight time, so you miss shots where the more shotgun type ships still hit stray shells. Colbert especially has another issue that you can't lead far enough with that auto aim at long ranges....

Play more Colbert...
