Probably because they don't clutter their databases up with millions of rows of data about dismissed commanders that people had but got rid of. They already added the 5 min dismissal cooldown to make it harder to make such a mistake.

There was talk of some normalisation changes which I think have landed or are about to but otherwise, in answer to have things got worse? no because we would have been told. I know there are conspiracies about changes but they would tell us about changes to the mechanics. The RNG has always been there and it has always been trolling you or trolling your target since the game started. Randomly. This game is about picking the right target, firing at the right time and getting your shells into the right ballpark to improve your chances of getting a citadel. On the flipside it is about angling to reduce the chances of an enemy getting great hits on you. The rest is up to RNG.

So with the given example someone could go 1/2/1 in the Saipan with 1 fighter, 2 TBs and 1 DB. How many DBs do you get in this setup? The same 8-9 as you do in the current AS? EDIT: or a 1/0/3 with 3 DBs? Potential of 27 DBs in the air at one time?

I sort of understand what you are saying, but with WoT you tend to sit still and point to get the reticle smaller but in WoWs you and your target are both generally moving, and as such your guns are moving too. If you don't move your guns for 5 seconds then there is a good chance that you are not aiming in the right place any more.

Where the armour is stronger? For OP - if he is AFK then HE/fires is a thing...

But you let yourself get angry about these things. For me, I have ships that I am grinding at tiers 4, 5, 7, 8 (4 of them) and then I have my 2 tier 10 ships. When I'm playing I try yo make some progress on my grinds and I make credits in the process. Then I sometimes take my tier 10s out for a ride but I don't really ever look at my credit earnings at any tier. I might look at my overall credits at the end of the evening nad as a rule they generally go up and that is what I want them to do. However if I played tier 10 exclusively for an evening and ended up 1 mil down I wouldn't care if I had enjoyed myself. Sure -150k credits seems a lot for playing a match but it is not hard to earn back in one of your premiums and you have a few of them. I play my Tirpitz because it is fun to play as well as a credit earner.

...and I am 'the idiot' apparently. Says one of our dead guys. Shame we lost in the end as they had a less than half health Mutsuki and a 5k health Konig (had just halved his health to that) but time ran out before I reloaded. We had me with low health and a Nicholas who after capping A decided spectating was his best tactic. If I had managed to kill him then points win for us. If we had had an extra perhaps 20-30 seconds then the 3 flags we had would have meant points win for us.

Yea, their AS guy was actually more of a pain than most AS guys but the main problem was I missed my first 2 TB drops without any interference - it was entirely my fault. Luckily you and your div mate did as I expected and dragged us to a win. EDIT: still in touch with FiFo peeps. Will say hi.

Perhaps they should remove credits, XPs and even the tech tree from the game... just let anyone start it up and dive right into playing any ship they wish... I mean, we don't to segregate people right?

To add to Synth_FG, the amount of credits you earn depends on the damage you do and you simply do not do enough damage. I know you are only at 10 games in the Montana but your average damage is only 60% of the server average in the Montana and certainly not enough to turn a profit if your ship dies. And you might say that it is because it is a new ship but looking at your Iowa and other BBs leads me to think it won't get that much higher.

Why not adding one more consumable to Tier VIII+ non-German BBs? ...because it isn't at all necessary?

Yep, being able to protect your vulnerable sides isn't that great when it is only protected by your vulnerable front...

People keep going on about the long queue time and it is a pain but for me whether it says 100 BBs or 600-800 the queue has been around about the 2 minute mark consistently. I get people have limited play time but that extra wait is not work 50k of my hard earned free EXP. p.s. I will agree that the Kaiser is pretty dull... but it is 22k exp to the Konig after the modules (7k for the modules) so it is not like you are stuck with her for long...

Eight. Hundred. Credits. I don't even...

Amagi is better. Don't be afraid.

quoted post removed What an angry little man. Grow up.

I like the idea of this ship but I don't think I will get it because: The reviews don't sound that great. In principle you would think sitting bow on and punishing people would be the way forwards but bad armour in general and specifically on the turrets which would be exposed by sitting bow on just make it sound underwhelming. I bought the shiny horse. They told me HMS Belfast was going to arrive and I will have to buy that. Combine 2 and 3 to mean they are getting enough of my money! EDIT: I reserve the right to change my mind the second time it comes on sale :p

Gremyaschy. Carry potential is immense meaning I have a good chance making myself be the difference between a win and a loss... or perhaps just taking out 4-5 ships even if the team wants you to lose. Other good ships for getting rid of some frutrations are my Yamato and Benson.

I want to play them all... besides I only have about 80k free exp. I'm using mine mainly for the hulls and grinding to the next ship.

I guess those Yamatos are both hard to spot and unpredictable with their speed/manoeuvrability. It is a nice story though as I would probably have auto-repaired if it happened to me so now I know to leave there to get the idiot who did it.

I agree with all of this. You have great speed which coupled with map awareness can help you control engagements quite well. And even if your damage rolls seem a little underwhelming sometimes, the RoF (coupled with fast turning turrets) means that your overall damage output can consistently push upwards to a respectable level.

Played only 5 games. Snap judgement. Your average damage in it is about the same as your other tier 7 ships. If you are only getting 2k salvoes then you are doing it wrong. I expect you are leading targets by the sae as your other BBs when actually you need a much shorter lead with the Scharnhorst as her shell arc/speed mean your shells get to the target much faster.

As has been pointed out by everyone (apparently it wasn't blindingly obvious) the HP pools per team are massively inflated currently but this will die down over the next week or so. I'm only at tier 3 still but from the various videos I have watched I think maybe the tier 6 & 8 ships will be strong... but then they are both strong tiers for BBs anyway so they will perhaps fit right in.

The bogatyr I saw this morning set me on fire once but decided that sitting in my range was a good idea. Sure it took 2 salvoes to get a citadel but it effectively ended his game right there. The Nassau is quite accurate and citadels are easy on cruisers.
