    Apparently WG/WoT is doing some colab with Sabaton. https://worldoftanks.eu/en/news/general-news/wg-sabaton/ I mean I haven't touched that game in a long time and don't feel inclined to ever do so again but still its kind of neat.

    Brilliant, so now we don't even have to chose from which direction we attack, we just put the circle on the enemy. They managed to make GZ gameplay even less appealing. Not going to get that boat if this is all there is to it. Looks boring as hell. Only thing nice about her is the model. Also I am now terribly confused as to what heal is now on the Conqueror/Lion. Does it get the OP heal or a toned down sane and more balanced version that doesn't condemn the Montana to obsolescence and that leaves some room for counterplay by non-BBs?

    British battleships incoming

    Verdius replied to anonym_u5USg8CcK96I's topic in General Discussion

    Just posting this here. TL;DR/I hate Flamu so won't watch version: Conqueror in current state with its super heal is OP, otherwise likely best BB at tier 10. Does everything a Montana does but better in general (except long range AA). It can citadel Hindenburg in close quarters quite easily and gets a lot of full penetrations on DDs. Has weakish turrets. Nelson with its heal will be even more powercreep at T7 after Belfast, Flint, Saipan.

    Normal penetration damage on DDs

    Verdius replied to _Teob_'s topic in General Discussion

    It's ridiculous. 'WoWs has a BB overpopulation' and a month later they announce RN BBs. 'AP shouldn't be more reliable when shooting lightly armoured targets than HE' and now we get a line where the HE is mostly there to shoot at bowtanking BBs and that oneshots DDs with AP even more.
  6. Verdius
    I can remember S_O saying something along the lines of: Yeah good job. HE is mostly for fighting bow on BBs in these ships. I've seen some disgusting AP full penetration salvo's oneshotting ships like full HP IJN DDs from 15km on Flamu's stream
  7. Verdius
    No he's not. The Devblog mentions shorter work time, which means that it will heal at the same speed as it does now but heal less overall than it does now.

    I do have KC, even have Taihou, I-401 and Musashi when it comes to slightly harder to get LSC ships, but I haven't really played it much and am still quite low level. I haven't really done any events either. Haven't logged in in months by now.

    Deep water torps do beg the question: Why is WG ok with DW torp concealment but not with, for example IJN torp concealment? DW's do comparable damage to IJN, and have decent speed and comparable range due to WG's nerf sprees. The main difference is that they don't hurt DDs and I highly doubt that IJN torps were gimped by WG because they 'were too dangerous to other DDs', which becomes an even weirder argument when you consider that the PA DDs have far more dangerous guns than the IJN DDs do. So I really don't see why concealment is an 'issue' on IJN but not on PA DDs. I mean if we can have a (extra stealthy) PA Fletcher with (improved damage) torps that give 4-5 seconds reaction time, why can't Yuugumo torps at least have comparable reaction times to the USN Fletcher? I mean I know this might well never make it into the game but still... I can't find the reasoning behind this.

    To be honest I don't really like most high tier maps. Mountain range, Okinawa and Tears of the Desert are extremely open which leads to teams camping because nobody wants to push into everyones guns. Especially cruisers can't be aggresive because they'll just get shat on by BBs due to lack of cover, which in turn lets DDs reign supreme in the center, and then the baBBies come to the forums to complain. They could all use a redesign.

    Shinano wie ein T9 Saipan mit T10 Flieger vielleicht? Oder WG Magie gibt Shinano ein Hangar-Upgrade. WG kann natürlich auch T8 zum Endpunkt machen.

    Yamamoto Campain broken?!

    You were in a Khabarovsk in a cruiser mission. I know it's an easy mistake to make

    Update 0.6.9 Feedback - Yamamoto Campaign

    Verdius replied to Kandly's topic in Archive

    You might want someone to do a check on the translation because I am fairly certain Yamamoto spend did not spend his time aboard Nisshin fighting small animals.

    I'm not sure what to think of deepwater torps/PA DDs. On the one hand more counters to BBs is good. On the other hand stealthy boats with high damage torps was supposedly the IJN niche, so getting a new line that will be even better (not to mention still has USN gun power) at it only makes them more obsolete. It depends on how you switch between the two types of torp as well. If you need to decide pre battle than DW torps are a terrible idea, since it only encourages people to go whale hunting by diminishing their ability to contest caps.

    Because it has better concealment than a Hipper/Eugen No but seriously WG buff Hipper/Pudding

    German cruisers tir 5-8

    Verdius replied to Mangrey's topic in Cruisers

    New tier 8 RN BB will have better concealment than Hipper/Eugen
  20. Verdius
    Remember when heavy hitting torps on stealthy ships used to be the Japanese DD niche?

    Carrier state: Calling out devs

    2-1-2 not unique enough, WG said after announcing an entire line of reskinned 'Pan-Asian' DDs, including such unique ships as Fletcher #4 and Gnevny #4.
  23. Verdius
    2-1-2 is boring. 2-0-3 is riveting though Please WG. Gameplay wise divebombers are the most uninteresting part of possibly the entire game. Sure it will do good damage, but you are just relying 100% on RNG, not to mention that it is not very skill intensive on the part of the player on the receiving end nor on the part of the CV player. Not to mention getting completely boned by Hood. This kind of 'interesting' gameplay makes me fall asleep.

    The weird thing is that AA is one of it's strong suits which is A. unhistorical, B uncharacteristic of IJN BBs, but the guns are completely the opposite of the IJN BB line as well. 1.7 sigma 35 second reload. I really don't get these desing decisions, especially in the IJN BB line of all places.
  25. Verdius
    Kii right now is a incomprehensibly weird ship For example: Kii AA: Seems pretty good and completely uncharacteristic for IJN BBs right? I mean never mind that the 100mm guns are not a historic armament for her since those weapons weren't around at the time of her design. And her guns are like this: That is some bad sigma uncharacteristic of IJN BBs right? So is it for brawling then? Its turrets don't really turn 25 % torpdo belt seems quite uncharacteristic for IJN BBs as well. It sucks at the typical IJN BB playstyle, but it also isn't suited to brawling with its traverse and torp protection. It really shares no characteristics with IJN BBs at all actually. I really don't get this ship.
