Sorry, was working over the week, and tonight with the RB starting I'm having a few games of that. Results will be here tomorrow

One beautiful thing about playing a BB rather than a CA / CL or even a DD is that you can track your shells , their hits and damage way more easily. Half-damage pens, even on full hp targets, for some reason are a thing. Tin foil hats on boys - almost like sometimes game is holding you back, not allowing you to perform to your full potential 0 dmg pens should be HE on spaced armour or AP penetrating a "non-damaging zone" like, for example, turrets and barbettes or damage depleted zones. Sadly enough you still can score 0 dmg pens on damageable zones aswell, if the game decides so. let me quote 2 points to you You see, saturation would affect both players at the same time, and only when the area is saturated. A full HP target is not saturated, yet you still can score 0 dmg / half dmg hits on it where they should have been a full damage penetrations.

Afaik they were playing around / testing this idea of allowing mirrored 2-man divisions in ranked because of all the complaints of absolute elimination of the last shreds of teamwork you could find in this game. Seeing how we can't do it right now - they decided either "no" or "not yet"

Try logging out of the website for some extra fun, the only way how I can do it is by clearing all the history, website data, saved passwords and all that good stuff so my browser is basically fresh and clean

Stop intentionally changing your text colour to something dark, it's impossible to read with Dark Mode on!

1st I as a BB / CV saw it in some guys post, thought it's from some mod, then got that myself in my Baguette-6 and got really confused... Not a single word about it in patchnotes, great way to let people know that it's going to be changed @MrConway@Tuccy@Crysantos@Sub_Octavian While I can understand "shadow changes" for something like MM, can we please at least get a heads up in the patchnotes for something like this that actually affects the match itself?

And that's kinda why it's here you know

Yeah, I'm sure all 3 of the current premiums and eventually the GZ will be purchasable. At tier 4 and 5 US have clearly the superior fighter, and the single fighter squad keeps being superior to japanese 1 squad. But what IJN lacks in straight up power they make up in numbers by having 2 fighters. At tier 6 I recommend paying a lot of attention to learning manual attacks - hold down Alt and do more precise drops and fighter strafes. Maybe even get a training room and practice in it. While at 6 you can still go around without knowing it, at 7+ you really need to know how to use it. Saipan is a great example of really bad design. It's too strong but not straight up completely OP. You don't have to be even average to do very well with it because it has tier 9 planes while everyone else at tier7 has t6 & t7 planes If you are interested in learning playing CVs I'd recommend checking Farazelleth, as it happens he's doing video series on the reworked US CVs right now.

While the meaning of it has been given, you guys seem to be missing a point Why is russian congratulations popping up in a client that's (I'm assuming here) in non-russian language (for example english)?

All premium CVs are at tier 7 and 8, your highest is 6. I do strongly suggest you get to the correct tier before buying a premium ship of that type, otherwise you'll get crushed more often than you do now. I mean, sure, it's a game and you play for fun, but that's no reason to ruin the fun for at least 11 other players just because MM put you in their team in a ship that's as impactful and important as a CV. As for the original question - was there even a CV that's "permamently" in the store like, for example, the Atago is? Personally would expect Enterprise to be here as a tier 8 a.k.a. "welcome to RB". Saipan simply shouldn't be sold and Kaga probably will pop up again sometime sooner or later.

3 is a ship 5 is a ship 7 - expected a ship aswell not camos Also rewards overall seem a bit meh, get to rank 12 and you've pretty much got all the flags, get 11 for 250 gold. After that there's basically no incentive to play apart from Rank4...2 which would be a grind anyway

They're working for me since 6.14.1 - just that I had to re-select the Nachi while I had the standard english

But if there is a Bismark right in front of me, and another Bismark (identical one) pops up next to him, still takes time to pop up on screen. Had the same idea, but this point would kind-of break it, wouldn't it?

Just wait for a NewOrleans with Floatplane Fighter

This is a thing, I always expect at least 2...3 second delay between minimap and vision. Just another reason to pay more attention to minimap to know who's spotted where. Also when for some reason PC is working under more pressure (a.k.a. slower) (for example I open Firefox and it decided to update bcuz reasons) that visual appearance can get wayyy more delayed

Harder to pay attention to them in full speed. Record the same salvo multiple times at normal speed, then play them back at lower speed. Should see the difference

Any chance we see the 2 BB per team limit ever again? Would be sad to see this season too devolve into 6 Bismarks & Tirpitzs vs 6 Bismarks & Tirpitzs every game with 1 random DD thrown somewhere in the middle.

Go into a replay and follow your 1st salvo you fired in that game multiple times in slower motion ( you can slow the replays down with Delete, go to minimal speed with End, speed them up with Insert, go to normal speed with Home). I'm currently "investigating" (with the help of DFens and ForlornSailor) if in the game we have the same (a.k.a. correct) trajectories, replays definitely have them somewhat random.

Stop colouring your text in dark colours, in dark mode you can’t read it

The best part by far is when you kick that guy from the division but he instantly rejoins it bcuz why the hell not

Definitely agree that spotting dmg always comes out far lower than it was expected... This should be testable in trainig room? Like, 1 ship in smoke on team A, and 2 ships in team B - one ship spotting (radar / hydro / proximity / gunfire) and the other one sits far enough back and kills the one who’s smoked up. Then check the results tab, should show the result there

While the new hamburg port looks to be a good one, I couldn't help but notice one little detail in the "6.15 patch notes with Dasha" video Ahh, World of Bugships, can't even present something new without slipping up <3

I think WG has to pick their "Top10" before we get to vote, right? Expect it to come in the following days

A while ago I saw Tuccy commenting that (and I'm paraphrasing here of course) "those previews and pictures and all that came from very early in development, way earlier than usually, which means that they will come out with a bigger gap in between the announcement and release. FR BBs might not even make it for February, and US CLs are scheduled after them". I mean, that was back in November so things might have changed, but the fact is that we just got PA DD line, and there will be at least 2...3 months before the next one.

Well, no Yamato wouldn't HE citadel a CA, but neither does Conq. What Conq can do is to citadel a few CLs, but the damage would still be basically 2x higher if he was using AP. Also to score that HE cit you will need to hit that side armour belt of the CL, meanwhile 419mm AP is more than capable of overmatching cruiser bows. You compare a BB with the BBs that it could be replaced with and targets with other targets that could be in that same '"enemy" slot. You compare how other t10 BBs would do in that same situation, not how this BB does only against certain ships ignoring literally two thirds (or even more with all the premiums) of its potential target list If you can't close in as a BB there will be more camping and sniping That's your missing puzzle piece
