  1. Do you know what the benefit will be?

    German BB Accuracy

    Good to see that the stats ate slowly moving towards the average after a somewhat spectacular start. Many factors come into play but I think the stats will even out in the future. Asking for a buff might be a little too much but all in all the balance seems ok. You can still argue about hydro but that should be it.

    Missouri Confirmed

    Wenn es eine L20a wäre sehe die Welt anders aus für mich. Aber ne Iowa Klasse - meh.. Obwohl sie dank Radar gnadenlos OP werden könnte. Mach ich trotzdem nicht mit.

    Wieso "Event" Premium? Kann WG nicht mal mit diesem pseudo-rarmachen aufhören? Und den komischen "events"? Seit der König Albert bin ich da echt allergisch. Da kriegt man ja Sodbrennen!

    Premium Ship Review: Shinonome

    Nice review! I am actually looking quite forward to get her :-)
  7. Nice attitude mate ("right players") :-) Don't get me wrong, I don't have a problem with neither stealth torping nor invisi fire myself - while I admit that overly artificial mechanics tend to annoy me. However this is a commercial game that tries to attract a broader audience. And there is a HUGE difference between giving a program to a limited and skilled testing group or if you go into real production where you find all kinds of use and misuse. While I agree a 100% with your wish for more teamplay I won't agree that invisi fire is a smart way to achieve it. A game should make the player feel to be mostly in control. That said WG has not found a smart way to promote teamplay. The fact they used caused damage as only measurement for more than a year won't make any change if habits any easier. Ppl already developed bad habits by now. WOT might give you an outlook where things go if you don't try to actively shape it'
  8. There is a big difference between HE fire - which is WG's mechanic to give small guns a way to hurt big armour - and invisi fire from the open. The problem with the latter is (at least in PvP game) that it is frustrating if you can't see your opponent who is shooting at you. Situations like this don't add to the overall happiness because it totally takes one of the player out of the active role. A similar problem is the "one-shot" on cruisers. It makes the cruiser player feel he can't do anything. And even if that is the normal case in a real war situation it shouldn't be like that in a video game. WG is moving away from stealth torping at the moment so invisi fire is a logical next step. They try to make the game fun for everyone - sometimes they do good sometimes they fail. Imo the problem with BBs is overdone versatility (eg. This misguided AA buff or Radar/hydro). However it doesn't mean that the rest of the mechanics are perfect

    USS Alabama tier 8 US premium BB preliminary stats (5.16)

    Are you sure??? I have her in port and the shot grouping feels incredible tight (maybe also because of 12 barrels which is a lot more tha I am usually using). Koenig has 10 guns with Sigma 2.0 iirc - and it might be perception but I think you feel a difference to eg. Bayern or Kaiser. What's default on the US BBs? Is it 1.8 as well?

    USS Alabama tier 8 US premium BB preliminary stats (5.16)

    Are you talking about Ishizuchi? She's gorgeous!! And while I happily skip Missouri I might be tempted by a South Dakota class. Let's see how she works out. Sigma 1.9 is better than the 1.8 we are usually shooting with. Not Arizona like 2.0 but Arizona is borderline strong for her tier I admit.

    I like when rumours come true :-) Isn't she a South Dakota class?

    Das dachte ich mir. Und die mit Abstand langweiligsten.

    Neue persönliche Angebote?!

    Ich denke auch, dass die PAs Spieler, die eher wenig ausgeben "motivieren" sollen. Das, oder WGs Algorithmus für personalisierte Angebote ist komplett im Eimer. Ich hatte Belfast und Leningrad - die beiden Schiffe, die mich im gesamten Spiel am allerwenigsten interessieren! :-)
  14. Cut off 1918 makes sense but Amagi also has a 1920s hull. Not sure how she'd compare to my Koenig Albert but the long range would be a problem either way.

    Dreadnought Era Appreciation Thread

    I would be all for it and really hope they do something like that! When the German BBs came out we had a discussion about the fantasy modernizations. If I remember correctly it was Ev1n or Tuccy who said that WW1 hulls are not ideal for their game concept and that they would look into a PvE mode for these ships instead. However - no details or anything so it seems to be rather a vague idea than a real plan. I mean - if there are enough ppl interested we could see if we can set something up within the community with the dreadnoughts in the game (stock)?
  16. My bad. How did I mix that up? I meant Soviet ... Something or whatever ;-)

    Neid muss man sich verdienen, Mitleid gibt's umsonst ;-) Viel Spass mit dem Eimer!!

    Dreadnought Era Appreciation Thread

    Welcome sharpie! The ships in the list are actually meant to be the ones you can use in WOWS in a dreadnought era configuration. So I am 100% sure Dreadnought will make it into the game one day - and the first thing once this happens is that I will add her to the list :-) Being the prototype of the modern battleship she certainly deserves a special spot!
  19. True to some extend BUT there are still tons of really relevant lines missing. Enough to go well beyond a reasonable lifecycle in the current pace! Problem is they waste time with content no one is interested in. Italy? France? New CV gameplay? Battlecruiser split lines? CA/CL split lines? Nope - Soviet patrol boats...

    Den Glücklichen mit dem Impregnator sei's gegönnt ;-) Bei mir war nur Müll drin
  21. Akagi T7 would be my guess. One of the famous single ships.
  22. 1MajorKoenig

    Struggling with the Bayern.

    You don't like Koenig?? I absolutely love her!!! She's my absolute favorite ship at the moment :-) However, agree with aiming higher. For whatever reason I find the Japanese aim-at-the-waterline less successful on German BBs.
  23. That's what you'd expect... but the RU cluster was pretty upset as far as I heard after the release of the CAs ("not patriotic enough"). And I think I read even the RU cluster would have preferred Brits or any other "famous" navy but I don't remember the source. As far as I know the bet to put in RU ships did not pay off at all - even not on RU cluster with regards to rising player numbers, customer perception and so on. That's why I thought WG would have changed their strategy but they seem to be more stubborn that I thought :-)
  24. I guess so... Just compare the release of the Russian ships (DD/CA doesn't matter) to the release of the German BBs or even now to the IJN split. You'll see a difference. Truth is, nobody seems to give a damn about the fictional Soviet fleet as long as the ships are not insanely obvious overpowered to spark a little quantum of interest. One would have thought WG learned their lesson - and now they talk about more insignificant DDs and even BBs. Heck, Rusdia had three classes of dreadnoughts. I am not against putting in Russian ships per se but there are already beyond enough - we need real ships from real navies now!!!! Ones that played a role!
  25. War auch Farth_Glorious Eindruck in seinem Fred obwohl die Daten eigentlich besseres erwarten lassen würden. Da hilf nur selbst Hand anlegen und "Go & See"
