What about lowering the time your detection range is increased after firing for cruisers by at least 50% ? This way you can shoot the BB's go back to stealth in a more reasonable amount of time so that the BB doesn't have forever to swing its guns on you. I think this would drastically increase cruiser survivability without having to tweak ship balance beyond this minor change.

I have to agree that cruisers need to be fixed to make them relevant again but how ? I tend to think that cruisers need a survivability buff and the best way to achieve that is by reducing imo the duration where the detectability is increased after firing. If this is reduced by at least 50% its easier to fire at a battleship without it having all the time in the world to turn its guns to you and firing them but if you keep on shooting then the battleship deserves that potentially devastating salvo you have coming your way. This shoot and scoot gameplay is of course not to be confused as an argument for stealth firing where you can keep shooting at long range without getting seen. Battleships imo are in a reasonably good position balance wise though they should be nerfed in their ability to see torpedoes so quickly making it more important to have your team mates nearer the front line to spot those dastardly torps for you. DD's i havent played enough recently to form an opinion on.

Hmm i don't know i think i saw Mr.Conway loitering suspiciously around my harbor gotta keep an eye on that ruffian before he runs off with precious camo's or my port sluts.

Naturally the yankees are already aware of this and not very pleased EU gets the announcement first. http://forum.worldofwarships.com/index.php?/topic/115789-wg-europe-alabama-inbound/ Cant say i blame them ships should have a universal release date imo.

no its a south dakota class.

http://forum.worldofwarships.eu/index.php?/topic/75226-event-calendar-for-march/ Interesting concept of soon wargaming is using. Also what more testing does the regular Alabama need over the squid Alabama ?

Hmm Alabama will commence live server testing ? https://twitter.com/Wargaming_netEN/status/830752083099934720/photo/1?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw I am fascinated by the concept of "Soon" now.

Just in case the WG staff is unaware of this thread http://forum.worldofwarships.eu/index.php?/topic/71026-suggestions-thread/

Removal of open water stealth firing ? Yeah nothing could possibly go wrong with such a big gameplay change.

Funny thats the same resolution on the pc at work that is powered by a 32mb tnt 2 card coincidence ? i think not.

I always look at the support page as they do their server maintenance posts long before any patch announcements show up on the mainpage so its a good indicator of us getting a new patch.

I think that spam section of rules will be heavily used come the next forum riot.

:-( i was trying to have some fun here.

Unfortunately supercontainer probability is no part of any education method that i am aware off.

Well i gave you a well deserved +rep for your admirable hard carry that game.

You where the hero of that match with a well deserved kraken.

Im not sure what this means.

A nice moning read with a cup of coffee before work.

Maybe this is just a way for wargaming to save money to ensure matches end quicker because the hide and seek game of finding the last survivor will happen less they get to limit the time servers have to be dedicated to such matches.

Why does it have to be "special circumstances" ? If unified account is excluded this would be the only customer friendly alternative that could be offered.

We dont need them to think things through we need them to listen to their testers for better results.

That means you then have a spare boat after the first one is destroyed.

Good work on getting that list made.

Now that would be something ! Turn it into a tier X equivalent of the missouri for 2,5 million free xp i bet we would have hundreds of them nuking everything in sight on day 1.
