...title says it all. T10 "silver" cruisers (with 2 exceptions: Des Moines, Petro) have become obsolete in current random games. They have close to "0" impact on game outcome. Congrats WG, this is turning into WoT more and more...

...which sole and only purpose is to try to frustrate players to the point where they start to spend money to progress faster. WG admitted back in WoT that they are doing this, even patented it. But just like in WoT they reached the point where intelligent players realize this and will leave. Because there is no way that players that allways have been way above 50% WR suddenly, in the course of some patches - despite regular play, have become below 40% WR players. Keep all your "it´s random and will average out over the course of 100000 battles BS" to yourself...if seasoned players, with thousands of games played, over the course of a couple of patches "suddenly" become below 40% WR players, no matter what they do, because they e.g. more often than not spawn on the weak, losing flank - because of asymetrical spawns that no one asked for, and never were anounced, but are suddenly in the game...than it has nothing to do with random distribution and statistics. It is set-up matchmaking to maximazine income. It´s about "frustrating" players to the edge they dont leave but start spending". Its a thin red line and of course WG aims for maximum players spending, but in that process they will lose the "thinking man´s action game" playerbase, because these players arent stupid enough to fall for this BS. So, good bye WOWS. Premium time will run out from now on, just like in WoT. And the reason is the same...BS matchmaking.

It's purpose is to make you spend freexp to skip it, like most tech tree T9 ships. The good ones are the T9 premiums.

..and that is NOT because of submarines, they are annoying to play against, but when you play them for yourself, you will realize how weak they truelly are. It´s purely because of Superships and CV´s, and than especially for super CV´s. Until now reaching T9 was something like "preferable" matchmaking, because a T9, when played well, was at least able to keep up with T10, but gettin into games with 5-6 Superships as a T9... Remove Supership missions! Dont reward people for playing them, they should be a pure and expensive moneysink. And to top this [edited], you get even forced to play Armsrace...it´s the same PITA as Epicentre on Tears of the Desert was. 90% DO NOT WANT IT! "Well done WG, well done" It´s just not fun at all

Obviously WG is so afraid of repeating the CV disaster (THEY ARE STILL THE MOST BROKEN THING IN THE GAME), they nerfed submarines completely into oblivion just before relasing them. Submarines are usless. They are annoying to play againts, but they contribute nothing to the game. The T10 german submarine is a POS. No torps in the rear, seriously? The only thing submarines are currently good at, is burning enemy repair skill. If you use your ping, even Kurfürst will dodge your torps, and you give away your position and get hard focused (enemy DD will suicide just to get you). Double ping on the same location is currently more or less impossible, so your torps are easily dodgable (contrary to CV torps dropped 2 km from you) and deal pityful damage. No, submarines are not OP, they are just in the game to distract the playerbase from the still not fixed CV disaster.

...is as annoying as Epicentre on Tears of the Desert or the Ocean map. 75% of players dislike it, no one wanted or asked for it in random battle, and it "spawns" way too frequently. I just had it 2 times in a row. Remove it. Thx.

Short answer: Please limit the BB per team in high tigers to 3. Why? BB long range sniping campers "punishing" cruisers that try to support their DD near cap. So less BB means more cruisers, means less DD's, or at least DD's need to work with their cruisers... The problem is the numbers of BB!

Hahaha...just played my first and last brawl-battle. Matchmaking is even worse than in regular randoms. One team had a CV (of course not mine), the other not. Enemy Team had multiple Divisions, mine had one...gues how it went! Dead Gamedmode. You want to implement skillbased matchmaking? Then dont allow Divisions in it or make a Solo-Queue (just like Mechwarrior Online did, because they realized, Divisions rigg the chances in their favour), and of course REMOVE CV´s from it.

...you can make DD work after rework. BB now rule the Sea with Dead Eye and kill every Cruiser that gets random spotted by CV within the first 2 minutes with Dead Eye Skill. Extra, extra slow "*edit* WG" clap.

...and people realized how low it´s hp pool is and focus it relentlessly as soon as spotted, it´s actually even worse in the current meta than Preussen and GK. It really sucks compared to them in the current passive games, where almost in every match there are CV´s. Schlieffen is a one trick pony like many others. If there is a CV in the game and get spotted early on, which is inevitable as a "BB" - it´s a cruiser labeld as BB, it has 0 survivability compared to BB´s, IF you manage to get into CQC, your often down to 1 heal, half dead and are lucky if you manage to get nearly your own hp as damage donw. So after the initial hype and the abuse by early accessers...objectively it sucks, except in that 1 out of 10 games when you get complete potatoes as enemies that let you yolo into them full health.

I even think WG should implemented the option "report...for playing CV". Because right now it's allways "...poor play", which to some extent is correct, but doesn't hit the nail... Can someone please start a poll "Do you think a "report...for playing CV" in the current karma system is needed? NOW!?

This is sarcasm, right? I mean, he cant really be serious, is he?

...people start to realize, start to trust their "guts" feeling. even ex-cc´s start to commit they wont be surprised if "you" are rigging matchmaking in favour of paying costumers. if they would follow this sh.t company long enoug, they would know wg patented "rigged" matchmaking back in their glorious wot days. so...just like in wot, after a few years when "hitting the mm wall" of defeat, this time my wallet closes forever. so, wg...you released a code "FCK U "insertyourpayingcustomer/critcal-ccnamehere"", it´s time for me to say a fullheartedly FU.K YOUWG!". from now on my wallet will be closed and my money´ll spent on silver, gold, ammunition and fuel. and when this bullcrap is over, where companies can crap on their kings = customers, we´ll (the people, politicians and bigtech owners) meet again, under our conditions. ;) have fun, cu.

Looks like I partied too hard...obviously it took me almost a year to get sober and wake up and according to the thread title it must be april 1st 2022.😱🤪

1. revert commander skill rework. 2. remove cv's (at least until they come up with a better system, otherwise completely) 3. reduce general BB range, accuracy and agility, buff reload slightly. 4. increase cruiser agility so they can actually "just dodge", especially of light cruisers with no armor. 5. reduce amount and duration of radars and especially reduce range on russian radar.

Are you serious?

so you want destroyable cover to further nerf cruisers and dd's?

good luck getting to the cap with worse concealment than Petro, and the "trollish" armor is a myth from the past. Maybe it works at max range, that's where you have to stay with it for the first half of a match, thus it's useless. You just dont have any influence at the outcome of a match...HE spamming might look great in damage numbers, but that's it...same gods for Zao/Henry...currently they are useless.

T8...every cruiser without a heal. T9 Seattle and Buffalo, T10 I habe to say Hindenburg. It is just useless, and if you compare it to e.g. the Petropavlosk, the ampunt of crappiness of the Hindenburg really comes to light and it's just a sad joke!

until you realize the slice of pizza is a 70% hp daring, with torps and heal ready, yolo-charging you...😱😎

of course you mean stealthradar! 😎

It wasn't stat-shaming, he made that clear. It was animal research. 🤷‍♂️😎

So we can look forward to the Comrades Admiral Becherovska, Stolichnoya, Taiga, Eristoff and Smirnoff? That would actually have some self-irony coming from WG... Best fit into the secret Austrian blueprint premium DD "Roter Bulle". 😎

I voted for option 3. I think cruisers should get a mobility buff (ruddershift/accel/decel), except the russian ones, they are allready the most forgiving to play, either they have real armor or are really agile, comparee to all others. On the other side there should be a global concealment nerf to BB's, so they cant ambush cruisers anymore. E.g. remove "concealment expert" and/or the concealment module. This way cruisers get more time to take evasive actions, get a chance to avoid their predators...🤷‍♂️

easy...dont play "dead eye" build bb and support your team. 🤷‍♂️
