Stop thinking it's a DD, it's a light cruiser After checking your profile, how can you say you lack fun in playing her, but have 128 games with her I like the Akizuki for one reason and one reason only -> daka daka lots off daka daka and ofc, stealth daka daka against BBabies when the chance arises. It's also a very nice support DD for your allied DD's trying to cap, the shell speed/arc makes it not that hard to hit DD's at medium ranges. It is NOT a spearhead destroyer, I never go into a cap first it's not Akizuki's job. You're to slow to get away if need be, you're the perfect supporter of others. IFHE on PT was quite nice against higher tier DD's, and more reliable then AP on angled DD's.

That's coming in 0.6.3 I think

My greatest achievement today ->

Wrong. Cruisers can't go in because of abundance of BBabies. Wrong, we had this in CBT to ( and even worse as the IJN torps weren't nerved... ) and yet we had dynamic gameplay. Wrong -> new wallhack equiped USN DD's will just crap all over stealth IJN torpedo boats and THEN run rampant stealth firing and stealth torping Yup. Wrong, the problem isn't ' torpedo soup ' it's bad players and lack of class synergy ( bad players are not the only cause of lacking class synergy, good players also don't provide synergy anymore since there are so many worthless bad players and without knowing if it's worth it to risk something for someone else, playing it ' safe ' is the better option. That goes for the map design as well. Some maps are bad, but WG is making map design better lately. It's not the cause of static gameplay. It's us, the players, which cause static gameplay, and with some valid reasons. BB's complain about lacking support from DD's and CA/CL's, and yes if I play BB's I do feel this to. CA/CL complain about camping BB's so they can't play aggressive and support allied DD's and if I play CA/CL I do feel this to. DD players complain about passive BB's who don't move up to support, and about CA/CL which also does not support, and when I play DD's I feel this to. And I imagine others feeling the same about me, how I play in any class which they feel should support them more. But the route WG is taking to fix this is the wrong one imo, people flock to BB's because they are forgiving and WG reacts with making them even easier to play, while also acknowledging they are easy to play, live to long, and are showing disconcerting population growth. The think that the lack of dynamic gameplay is due to cruisers not being able to hunt DD's because they don't have wallhack, when it's not wallhack but the abundance of their natural counter ( battleships ) which is the cause of their passive play. WG seems to think IJN DD's are the cause of passive play, so after nerving their torpedoes they also give their natural counter ( USN DD's ) even more tools to shut them down. When top tier USN DD's already outperform IJN. They see that the BBabies camp to much, and think that buffing FP and nerfing DE will get them to play more aggressive, well we already have some people who are still crying about fires being OP and HE needing more nerfs. BB's won't play more aggressive because of these skills. WG needs to change the attitude of the players, and that's not working with these changes. There needs to be more incentive for proper teamwork. That is the only way the class synergy will return and this game will be fun again for all classes ( well and the CV UI rework but as I don't play them I don't really mention them enough ).

Hey I got a founders account it's not like I didn't stop playing for a reason. But it's still more appealing atm Ign is the same as here

For my cruisers that is. Since I can then stay at max range and I can hit the BB and slowly wither him down while he won't land a single shell I rather see limits of 4 for both DD and BB, and even that is to high imo as it would still leave cruisers as the least populated class in any single match. Two or three BB's and DD;s is much better imo.

If you followed the steps mentioned this patch would have done exactly what you wanted Should have moved captain to ship you wanted him to be trained in and started free retraining. That was all you had to do. My captains which I moved all finished retraining now.

Lets agree to disagree that ' this is *insert disease flavor of the month* is ;' just words ' aka a normal method of communication.

Yup I use AAA consumable to on my Sims ( don't have manual AAA though since it was to expensive.. and I only have a Clemson as regular DD so it doesn't seem to make much sense speccing that manual AAA

Just logged in to check my captains, all is fine. Now closing the client as there is no reason to actually play.

That might be true but comparing elements from a game with a desease which kills people in real life is just sad. Yeah well some of us have had closer encounters with cancer then others, and some of us might have kids which we hope will grow up without finding ' this is cancer / ebola / *insert whatever disease is flavor of the month* a normal method of communicating.

I saw that. To bad there isn't more consensus amongst all the participants. I don't want to involve myself directly it's not my place but I appreciated the attempt greatly. A line has to been drawn somewhere so why not here with RDF. The reasoning behind it is totally flawed conceptually and I have no doubt it won't do what they described they wanted it to do, but waiting for that to become abundantly clear for them through their precious statistics will take a long time. I got a founders account for MWO but haven't played it since release I think. Might try to not be a total potato in that game for a while, until WG realizes it wasn't a lack off wallhack which meant cruisers couldn't hunt dd's, or that BBadies don't need wallhack for late game as diaper for not being potty trained but instead should learn that doing their thing in the proper place and time is going to either prevent this season situations and that if they still happen they got outplayed and shouldn't be asking for for diapers but accept their failure. Ow and that buffing USN dd's hunting capabilities in comparison with IJN dd's ' high skill requirement' torpedo strike capabilities is also pretty comical when looking for at the server stats. Ow and when they stop claiming feedback was positive when, sure overall the changes to having four point skills as maximum is great, RDF certainly was not well received at all.

No you typed something Just like you typed it has good HE.

Tier 5 -7 won't give a clear message and it wouldn't influence player retention.Tier 4 though falls within the protected MM range and will surely make new players quit the game in disgust of meeting experienced high skill captain equipped seal clubbing divisions Imperator - Yubari don't need a trained captain for them, but I did put a 16p captain on my newly bought Clemson edit untill the 22nd if nothing is done, be it from WG themselves or from the entire competitive scene ( like.. banning RPF from a certain tournament even if not done by organizers then by consensus amongst participating clans just to make a strong statement towards WG ) I will to take a long break and go play something without wallhack to pamper the BBadies with.

What would be even better, and what would actually show us WG wants to spoil us, is them putting this up in an announcement themselves PRIOR to the patch hitting us.

Premium ships are but only if you never played a single battle with them.

You're fishing for a ban on this account as well how nice I have a feeling I know your real account, something to do with calling a spade a spade right

He's back and removed his " go to hell " That's already more then I expected really Now OP, could you please link us your main account? edit: wew two edits, he put it back in

he hasn't played a single game... well not on that account anyway

Now post with your real account please You fell for this? Really?

No that leak was not intended for this patch in the first place ( if you mean the one where premium consumables are nerved and normal one's buffed ). They might have leaked that on purpose to hope it would make community happy ( well the bad part which used stock consumables because they couldn't afford the good stuff ) and they would ignore the WallHack drama addition to the game.

Wait until WG adds auto WASD hax to the game ...

I think Sub_Octavian said that minimap mod will be in the vanilla client in next patch.. ( which would make me very happy if they didn't add WallHack to the game ).

Play tests for premium would likely result in lower amount of sales, which is also why you don't get premiums on PT server
