And this is the main problem. DDs are supposed to counter BBs, yet any BB captain with half a brain is basically immune to DDs. Therefore noone plays DDs, therefore cruisers are useless (not that they are particularily good against DDs anyway), therefore BBs rule the seas. (not counting CVs)

You can see internal armor on gamemodels3d. But a payed site can not be a substitue for something that should be availiable for free. Armor models and shell velocity/penetration curves should be provided by WG.

50€ for a 3D-model and some numbers in a spreadsheet... I'd pay five.

It's a pretty obvious cash grab. Dev1: "I heard people like the Yamato." Dev2: "Let's put an insanely bad ship right before of it, so people will skip it with "free" xp." Dev1: "On it. What should I do?" Dev3: "How about a horrible turret layout?" Dev1: "Good idea. Anyone else?" Dev2: "Let's make it a BC that has shitty armour..." Dev1: ".. while also being slow for a BC, [edited]yeah! I'm also going to give it a terrible stock hull without AA for the lulz." Dev2 and Dev3 laughing

Just stay at range and a Cleveland will never hit you. In my ~100 ranked battles in Aoba/Myoko I died to a Cleveland in what could be considered a semi fair 1on1 once. It was entirely my fault because I let him get close. And you see a lot of Clevelands in ranked. I'm totally comfortable engaging two Clevelands at the same time in an Aoba. As long as you can dictate range they are rather harmless.

It used to have way higher muzzle velocity (and better AAA) in CBT. It was a very strong ship back then, but it's mediocre at best now.

Pretty bad ship since the shell velocity nerf, only dangerous to noobs who engage it at close distance. Needs its AAA, RPM and shell velocity unnerfed and go to ~T8.

Clevelands are horrible in ranked. Myoko is the best cruiser. Edit: Nürnberg might take that spot soon.

Just had a 5BB vs. 4BB match. Rest was Cruisers. Guess which side won... It was rather obvious that the 2BB per match restriction wouldn't work, tho. Cruisers and DDs are crap compared to BBs, so people will want to play BBs in ranked.

Bin halt nicht so pro wie du, und setzte nicht mit 150mm Kanonen jede Salve 2-3 Cits auf DDs (die keine Cit haben) und BBs (durch die du nie im Leben durch kommst). Du solltest dich vielleicht mal mit deinem Dunnig-Kruger-Effekt konfrontieren, bevor du andere Leute dumm nennst. http://iqtest.sueddeutsche.de/ Viel Spass.

Vielleicht sollst du garkein AP ballern, sondern mit Sinn und Verstand überlegen, wann es angebracht ist HE zu schießen, wenn du den Gegner nicht penetrieren kannst, um dadurch den Schaden zu maximieren, anstatt völlig verblödet und ohne Skill AP zu spammen.Wer allerdings nur in Ansätzen fähig ist, von Wand bis Tapete zu denken, kommt darauf vielleicht garnicht. Mach's mir doch nicht so einfach. Das ist langweilig.

Blah, blah. Nur mal so z.B. Die deutschen 8" HE Granaten machen weniger Schaden als die japanischen 6" Granaten. Trotz mehr als doppelt so viel Sprengstoff in Wirklichkeit. Historisch korrekt...

The lack of balance between classes will ruin ranked. CV and BB queues will take ages, as people will actually want to influence the outcome of the game. No point in playing ranked in a subpar class. Without a limit to shipclasses it would be CVs only.

Good old beta excuse, i like it. Obviously WG will hire a guy tasked with balancing the moment the game is released, they just don't have the money yet, because this game is still being tested and they aren't teking any money yet ..oh wait. For the 1vs11: I won a 1vs7 back in CBT and i bet people have done better. Guess which ship class i was in ... You do know that the wiki article is about reallife, right? Do i have to quote what i asked? Do i have to quote your stupid definition of capital ship again? I never suggested doing all of the above at the same time. But as long as CVs can spot and anvil DDs, DDs will be useless, so if you want to fix this game you either have to reduce all CVs to one squad of TBs or remove their ability to spot DDs. Unless you have some better idea. And don't give me the "they'll get the AA ability" crap. It can at best delay the inevitable.

So if DDs had the most influence you would call them capital ships? Yeah right ... I never said i want CVs pounded into the ground, I mearly made suggestions how they could possibly be brought down to the strength of the other ship classes. Nice strawman, tho. Uhm, this game has ships with a hp bar going around at 300km/h, I think we are far past any concerns for realism. The rest of your rambling... what does that have to do with anything i said?

WTF is a capital ship in the context of this game supposed to be? Who is "you people"? I'm mostly playing CVs these days as i want to be able to affect the outcome of a battle. Doesn't mean i'll defend the op at any cost like certain other people whom i remember talking quite differently back in CBT.

Remove spotting from planes, nerf loadouts, nerf manual tb drops, etc

Lots of people would just quit if you told them how bad they are at playing the game. They need the illusion that bad luck with teammates is at fault for their 42% WR over 1k games.

Carriers always being matched against carriers doesn't change carriers being op. Just like a SMG in a pistol only CS match wouldn't be balanced just because there is a guy with a SMG on the other team too. But i totally expect WG to not get this and buff US CVs (which are op already) just because they are matched against ijn CVs (which are even more op).

Any detailed patchnotes?

There are completely legitimate complains about BBs, like -the TIII ones being horrible in T5 games -the Myogi comparing very unfavorably to the Wyoming -the Izumo being a piece of crap But all these whine threads by horrible players devalue the correct criticism and lead to stupid changes like buffing BB accuracy below 3km, which is both not needed and yet another nerf to US DDs, which already are the weakest class in the game.

0 would be a decent value for this

Did anyone make it past the first ten words?

You have 18% with the Kongo. Maybe you should learn to shut up and listen to obviously better players so you can improve your gameplay instead of whining like a baby.
