This poster played all off them as supertester though, so he at least should have some experience with them. Then he's admittedly not a BB main, and doesn't like Tirpitz at all ( even though most of the bad stats are from the testing period suddenly showing up in public stats ). He also always points to freely available server stats which support the fact that German high tier BB's are currently the main reason of the surplus of tier eight battleships at the very least, with both of them combined more games as all tier 8 cruisers put together ( at the time of posting, using past two weeks prior as timeframe reference ). With one of them being a premium, and this being a grind based game and all those cruisers leading to end tiers, this doesn't look to healthy. He also just checks those stats for incompetence and bias Your argument would be better aimed at my his Shimakaze and comments on IJN DD's ( as you might have a better case there as with German battleships ;) ).

My reply to what is 'snide' can be read in that other thread. I'll but out of this thread, as I do think it's at least proof that WG does listen to feedback and acknowledges mistakes which was my whole point I wanted to make there. Also I got two kids fighting over their minecraft server so priorities have to be set...

Ow wow it's mr Belfast is balanced ( yes it is, it is his most played ship off course! ) Back to his old tricks of lying through his teeth ( if he has them, I hear they haven't broken through yet ). Also, go read again, you're entitled to have an opinion, and we're entitled to point at you and laugh about it,

Yeah summize to say I didn't share his opinion on that at all. Ofc he is free to have one, but I think it's a factually wrong And that was the FIRST time I directly read: you have no right on that opinion, and it didn't even relate to something on forum. So I still feel your opening post might be a bit off with stating that people use profiles to tell people to be quiet. They are just told their opinions are entirely irrelevant, and rightfully so.

I have so many 4-10 point commanders in there, I just don't have a need for them atm. I only need 'reserve' while switching ships from and to premiums ( sometimes mixing them up :D ). I also got so many reserve spaces from missions I think it's an absolute non issue.

They shouldn't take up actual space anymore afaik? I mean they are there ofc, but they don't occupy your normal commander reserve.

Point me to one please? I never see: your stats suck you have no right to speak. Everyone has a right to speak. Just not everyone has a right to be taken serious. http://theconversation.com/no-youre-not-entitled-to-your-opinion-9978 Opinions aren't limited to those who should have one sadly WR is most important metric since it's the goal of the game. But everything is related, I could boost my wr in divisions ( but this can be filtered so it's a non issue really ), or I can boost my win rate with playing certain over performing ships but again that is a non issue since it can be checked. Usually one doesn't get decent win ratio when the other stats are bad ( and if someone does, his sample size in battles is to small ).

You should stop making sense, and only say things which don't hurt the babies or WG will not even reply to you.

I just found this part funny ( if that is appropriate for this thread.. guess not but it did make me chuckle ;) ). Like I said, BB's switch in game, WG wants destroyers to choose before they start the game. And I actually said I thought that preloading ( like normal ammo ) makes the most sense, and it were others who said it should be selectable with the spread button, and you shouldn't have to preload. edit: btw you do realize how weak this argument is because no BB would preload HE for DD's now anyway. WG isn't 'fixing' BB AP on DD's because we have smelly socks. About WoT, I don't play it atm. Also a lot of messing around, concealment values, changing maps, removing bushes, extending light tanks ( good thing I think ), changing SPG mechanics ( probably a good change, it was discussed for such a long time before... ). I guess if I hit that battle button right now I will get to play a game which is vaguely similar to what I'm remembering but a lot of it would be like a new game. Anyway what is your solution then, for WoWs I mean? Soft cap lowered from 5 to 3 is not original btw

Of high quality I guess

You're the one who went ad hominem with your unfounded accusations, don't be surprised to be replied in kind. My experience is enough to cover most topics concerning WoWs excluding carrier gameplay, the many cbt and MANY games on ST server in addition to my regular games have given me ample opportunity, you trying to question that shows how much actual arguments you have ( none ). It is also funny to try and critique my games played when tier 8 is my most played tier ( and ... wait for it.... the exact same tier occupied by a certain Tirpitz and Bismarck... ). Which just proves you're trying to throw crap at the wall wanting some to stick. It's usually how people who don't have any actual arguments behave if they still want to be part of a discussion or they feel left out. really? I hope you grow up and recover from your brain damage. Still repeating crap without reading answers I see. The problem isn't CHOICE, it is having to choose before a battle starts, and having a MM incapable of even now just balancing radar on teams. The problem isn't CHOICE, the problem is NOT having a choice because you mounted 'the wrong torpedo type' before you hit battle, and you're now FORCED into roles by MM which don't fit your loadout. The problem isn't CHOICE, the problem is teamplay going down the drain since your 'insert any DD' choose to go ignore cap zone's as it's set up for deep water torps, and your team being 4 caps down after 4 minutes of gameplay. The problem isn't CHOICE, it's WG's reluctance to actually do something which HURTS battleships and not other classes. This is my last reply to you, as you just made it to my ignore list.

Emden is officially a premium ship. Just like Mikasa. Just like Tachibana. Just like Smith. Just like Marblehead. Just like Prins Pudding. And I don't think people told me Harekaze is p2w even while I feel it's the most interesting recent premium. There are still a lot of 'mediocre' premiums as well.

Clearly OverConfident. He can ask whatever he wants, truth hurts and there is no point in trying to be diplomatic when I'm already being accused of wanting to cather game to 'unicums' in destroyers just because I don't think being able to switch ammo on a destroyer is an overly complex mechanic. Also, I can link you to several quotes directed to ME PERSONALLY where I asked about IJN DD's ( they were fine, I just need to 'adapt' ). So no, I don't like acting all 'let's sit around camp fire and sing Kumbaya', I don't see the benefits of that at all. Let's keep discussion FACTUAL, and not go buthurt because you feel you're being 'attacked' just by pointing out WG made mistakes in the past.

<sarcasm> Ahhhhhh So the line I grinded which was supposed to be the ULTIMATE battleship hunters, now suddenly shouldn't mount DW torps to hunt battleships more effective. Yeah sounds like an excellent idea, I hope WG puts it in tomorrow! </sarcasm> Just to clarify: I agree with what you're saying, I just think this whole concept is beyond retarded.

See, let's go down to ad hominem levels right Pathetic little lying excrement, I don't care about how good you are or what you play as long as you can present an informed and unbiased opinion. That is why we need to see profiles, not to judge if someone is good enough but if someone should be taken serious. Go read up about how harmful 'opinions' can be, like those who claim that for instance, getting your children vaccinated, actually will cause your children to develop autism for instance... http://theconversation.com/no-youre-not-entitled-to-your-opinion-9978 Yeah we should really allow everyone to spew their opinions without scrutiny right I'm going to ignore you in this topic from now on before the mods find an excuse to lock it so I can't bump if when RN BB is released, this whole 'test' goes belly up and the amount of battleships is queue is even higher. Everything I said is simply factual, everything you been blabbing is what WG's PR department has told you. We will see what happens, PR department has made some bold claims in the past, about DD's just being overconfident ( ok was a wrong word... what did it mean: DD's own fault for playing to aggressive... ow wait that's the same thing. ). IJN DD's are fine as well, didn't need... ow wait they actually came back on that as well. They even admit that battleships do to much damage and live to long. And that there are to many of them around ( geeh wonder why ). But hey, WG buffed flooding chances on higher tier so that surely makes up for it right! Keep drinking the kool aid, I'm not. yeah you're really in a position to make that promise Pathetic.

Lol.. Everyone who doesn't agree with me is reluctant on changes!!!!1111oneone!!!!111 Yeah let's forgo on actual arguments and go blab WG's pr bs.

I missed your Edin, my apologies, thought you were still stuck at Fiji. Not really, lack of relevant experience is a serious issue in these discussions. Doesn't mean people can avoid their lacking experience by making the statements more generic so they aren't tied with personal experience anymore. Uhh yeah I posted a table earlier.. Nope, Bismarck and Tirpitz together played as much as all tier 8 cruisers is not 'torpedo's/IFHE' ..... And Bismarck was given away yeah but the numbers weren't that much less before that. It's probably more WG BUFFING German BB's even more which caused the babies to all flock to it. Type59 was both directly nerved a couple of times and got nerved by gold ammo for credits, don't need to tell me I was there. Were you? edit: and if you reply, reply to my previous post as well instead of just the one line where I missed your Edin.... very 'interested' to see you try and wiggle yourself out of that hole you dug yourself in.

This is a complex mechanic, like switching ammo on DD's. I am not sure it's possible to manage things that complex

This is why I usually don't even bother. The agony of having those people as one out of seven in my team is to big.

Yeah well if they go on split up destroyers even more like this they should change the MM to take into account roles. Edit: I don't need mirroring, I just want MM to atleast try and yes that does imply I'm ok with actually WAITING five minutes if I had to as long a that means I will always get balanced teams.

Imbalanced games aren't fun. Why are CV's mirrored? The fact that match distributions are not large enough for everyone to have a level playing field is also something I don't enjoy.... I mean I keep getting people telling me how they constantly have only 3 or maybe 4 battleships, and how there are constantly 5 or more destroyers. I which I would get their MM, maybe I will someday though..

It's a thin line between showing off how ludicrous something is, and trolling. Trolling is against forum rules

Most important part of that article I linked is this -> It can be argued what you're saying is opinion and everyone has the right to HAVE one. The problem is when people who have opinions, think those opinions outweigh the opinions of those who use actual arguments to substantiate their opinions. Someone who only plays battleships, has a 38% win ratio with 10k damage on a Yamato ( all secondaries btw ) is still entitled to say "I think fires are OP". But this opinion has no value at all. Someone who says: fires are game breaking and we should try another method, well that's at least more as just claiming something is broken. Even with a hidden profile. And especially since as been pointed out, a lot of those 'effects' are already in play so it's not even that far out. You loose secondaries/aaa to HE ( which is needed to start fires ). Direct causality is not needed I think there.

I know some decent players who hide them just to piss me off. I even know some GOOD players with hidden profiles Though the combination of hidden profile + his 'argument'.. it's not giving me a warm and fuzzy feeling inside. edit: http://theconversation.com/no-youre-not-entitled-to-your-opinion-9978 this would apply I guess, but yeah can't be 100% sure.

His recents look average enough, since it's an old snapshot I guess he might be decent now. Sadly, no way to check for bias or just incompetence.
