I wish the Flags could be more historical. Give us Nation battle ensigns. Or State/County flags. Nation flags. Stuff like that. Flags for the nations Marine Corp

Well role on the complaints. Mission is up and EU server mission is a little MEH https://worldofwarships.eu/en/news/special/rainin-on-my-parade/ 3x XP first win is nice.. Role out those Flags and camo and jump you ship grinds ahead personally don't really care what other servers have

Its a simple fact.. The CA/BB that support there DD at mid range (maybe not close. though Bismark is good at this). this team tends to win

Thing is beercrazy old chap..this is not the case its just an incorrect perception. Same source, same time period BB over population yes. But look below the DD to CA/CL is very similar. 24% CA/CL to 27% DD and of that 27% DD 3% are Udaloi/Tashkent and Khabarovsk DDs that many count as light Cruisers Souce http://maplesyrup.sw...king/index.html High tier 8-10 BB 45% CA/CL 24%% CV 3.5% DD 27%%

from a another thread about DD Percentage of ships brought to battle week ending 22/04 on EU server http://forum.worldofwarships.eu/index.php?/topic/79109-the-amount-of-destroyers-in-each-batlle/page__st__20__p__1795164#entry1795164 Souce http://maplesyrup.sw...king/index.html High tier 6-10 BB 39.46% CA/CL 33.29% CV 2.89% DD 24% As you can see Tier 6-10 a lot more CA/CL and BB are brought to battle than DD

You have no life you Dirty Scrub.... Me, I got 530 coins. Will get 175 Zulu Hotel flags Upgrades. I have 15 in inventory so don't need/want any more I have plenty of credits and Free XP and already have Missori. So Zulu Hotel flags is the only choice

All the Blooming Time in matches i play in... The team that win the DD fight tend to be the team that the BB/CA/CL support there teams DD. Only time DD players tend to ignore the enemy DDs is when there are only 1 or 2 on each team.THEN and only then do we DD players ignore each other and go after the BBabies

What a Load of tosh... There are 5 counters to Destroyers on each team...The 5 DESTROYERS on the other team. This game is fun because of its variance. Sometimes you are in BB heavy, sometimes DD heavy. CA/CL not so often as at high tier they are hard to play.. Funny thing is BB players think they will do better with Lass DD in match.. Dream on baby. Most DD players smile insanely when they see only 1 or 2 DD per team. As I posted on another thread High tier (6-10) DD make up 25% of ships brought to battle. There is no issue. -2 match making.. Again tosh. More of a challenge yes. But the only ships really Adversely affected by -2 MM is CVs. In a CV you can forget attacking a BB or CA/CL in the first half of the battle, as they still have most of there AA Do they? what limits are they? only one I can think off is a limit to SPG.. Just look at latest MM fix and it says nothing about limiting class of tank There is rely only 1 issue with DD match making which if i remember correctly has been fixed. That was the matches when you got 5 DD on 1 team and 2 on the other

Good point missed that bit. Strange

She comes with her original colour. These alternative camo's I have no problem with.. Thing is she was a peace time ship that was Sunk early in the war. This makes it hard to come up with alternative skins. She came in Gray Gray or well Gray. Lets face it people would complain if the different camos Just mounted up to some alternative recognition symbol on the turret top.. Far better the one you buy her with being correct

This Comment is just Dumb beyond belief.... HIS PROFILE SAYS HE HAS A CLUE Well above average stats Extensively played ALL Classes of ship at all tiers up to and including tier X.

You are the one missing the point and showing NO understanding. The Balance/Counter to Destroyers is OTHER DESTROYERS with Cruisers Supporting those DDs. Destroyers were designed to counter them self's Its what Destroyer stands for. You proposal is just short sited. 5 DD in the game with 5 CA/CL just makes BBs king of the sea. with almost no Opposition. It also wont stop your So called TORPEDO SPAM as of the 6 CA/CL tech lines 5 have torpedoes. OR suggestion of equal DD/CA would acheave absolutely nothing balance wise.

Wont Work.. Limits like this will just extend MM waiting times Exponentially. @Dave_Lister this is indeed a Wine thread with someone with almost no Experience with DDs. A high DD count is better for BBs than a low count. Why? 1st Well it means at the start of the game DDs are fighting each other not chasing BBs. 2nd That screen of DDs in front are spotting Torps when they are still a long way of the BBs Also you comments do not fit the numbers.. Percentage of ships brought to battle week ending 22/04 on EU server Souce http://maplesyrup.sweet.coocan.jp/wows/ranking/index.html High tier 6-10 BB 39.46% CA/CL 33.29% CV 2.89% DD 24% Low Tier 1-5 BB 29.77% CA/CL 44.72% CV 3.8% DD 21.67% Souce http://maplesyrup.sweet.coocan.jp/wows/ranking/index.html 24% of ships are DD thats an Avarage of 3 per team at high tier Low tier its more like 2 per team. Restricting MM to X of this class of ship and Y of that will just increase Que Times. Also it gives more Variance to the game. It gives all classes and Flavours of ship a chance to shine. Torpedo boat in Low DD count game = bring it on. High DD count in a Gun boat lots of shiny targets. Lots of CA/CL when in a BB.. World of citadels. Restricting any of the 3 main classes to as you Suggest will just make BB players King of the sea. Do that no one will want to play anything but BB and that brakes MM and increases Que times. Top tier BB are more than Capable of Handling DD's. Its a rare DD Torp strike that takes 20% health of a BB that is switched on and manoeuvring. Then said DD must wait 2 mins to fire again

@Takru Blatantly farming Forum Karma Points.............. Vielen Dank main Liebe Worked a treat thanks a lot +1 from me as well

lol I am I have split the post WW1 DD into 8 distinctive classes of DD by guns alone proving beoned a doubt that the vast majority or post WW1 DD designs were not 4x4.7 inch guns and 8 torpedo tubes. V and W had 4x 4inch (68 ships) A to I had 4 or 5 4.7s (89 ships) Tribal had 8x4.7 (27 ships) J,K,N,L and M had 6x4.7 (40ships) O,P had 5x4inch guns (16 ships) Q,R,S,T,U,V had 4x4.7inch guns (DP)(80 ships) Battles had 4x4.5inch DP guns (24 ships) Weapons had 4x4inch DP guns (4 ships) Adding to that torpedoes/speed/AA armement means a RN DD tech line could easily be the most varied of any DD tech line I the game. And not a mass of DD'S with 4x4.7 and 8 torpedoes like you stated.

Why DDs All the DD classes i have listed served in WW2. V and W class DD have a place in this Conversation. Even if we Exclude them you still cant say the Vast majority of DD had 4x4.7.

But you emply it by saying RN DDs are all the same and not saying USN tech line are also all teh same. Also Go look at my updated post I have done the Math less than Half RN DDs post WW1 had 4 or 5 4.7inch guns and that 48% can be devided in to DP and None DP making said DD very very diferent

Yes in total number of DDs that served yes as the RN built 68 V and W class DD and of the A - I class DD we launched a massive 89DD. But the . If we use you argument why do we have the Faragut or the Mahan Class USN DD in game as there was only 8 and 18 of them built respectively and 24 Bensons. as these 3 ship classes together only constitute 50DDs there were 175 Fletchers built. From the Faragut to the Gearing the Armament is basically the same (using you argument) They all have 4-6 5inch guns (all DP) and 8-10 Torpedo Tubes. so why do WG bother to have a tier 6-10 USN DD + A prem and up until tier 10 all in single mounts. As all USN DDs from 6-9 are very very similar so will play the same. Same sort of tier RN destroyers however can have 4-8 guns or 4/4.5 or 4.7 inch Calibre both DP and Non DP. We can have between 4 and 10 Torpedoes But from 1919-1945 there were Many different types of DD for the reasons I stated above So no when talking about different classes of DDs (not the number of DD of each class commissioned) the Vast majority of RN DD Were not 4x4.7 and 8 torpedo tubes How can you Say RN DDs are basically the same but USN ones are not?

But they are not similar at all the very wildly. If we look at DDs from Tribal onwards We have ships with 4 to 10 Torpedoes. We have ships with 4 inch 4.5 and 4.7inch guns some DP(Can be AA guns) guns some not. We have ships with 4-5 6 or even 8 guns We have speeds of 30 to 37 knots. 4 inch guns will play completely different from 4.7 inch in the same way the guns on the two Tier 8 IJN DDs guns play completely different Just look at the C and the Battle class DDs (late war) main gun and Torp Armament is the same. Speed also almost the same. They were both entering service 1943-46 But Battles are a Lot bigger ships 3290 times full load apposed to 2570 of the Cs. Guns in the C 4 single mounts 2 bow 2 stern. The battles however have ALL 4 guns on the bow in double mounts. These ships will play completely diferently Royal Navy designed there DDs for different roles and as such they varied much more than the USN for example. WW2 USN built 3 classes of DD Fletcher/Alan m Summer and Gearing and the Gearing was just a Stretched Summer

This can be said for the USN DD but not RN ones Yes the ships from the 1918-30 like the V and W were similar. But go look at the DDs in WW1 or the War Emergency Programme classes DDs(WW2) they very Wildly With many different Guns and configurations Speed and the like War Emergency Programme DDs alone(WW2), 8 distinct classes had 3 diferent Caibre of main gun and then Sub Veriants of those guns QF 4.7-inch (120 mm) Mk XII guns QF 4 in Mk.V (102 mm L/45), QF 4.5-inch (113 mm) L/45 Mk IV guns They had between 4 and 5 guns of the above calibres in single or double turrets and 4 to 10 Torpedoes tubes. they had speeds of between 31 and 37knots and significantly different AA. So the same Defiantly not. When i say over 40 DD classes i do mean ones with distinct differences. So no they were not similar at all Where do you get the idea that RN DD were basically the same.. Well thats quite easy.at the start of WW2 the Navy had a huge amount of V-W DD (late WW1) and a large number of A to H class DD that were also very similar to each other. But for my purpus of 40 classes of DD I count the V-W and the A to H as 2 classes.. Go look at the Late 1930s DD. They are also very different to each other

delaci76, on 25 April 2017 - 12:17 PM, said: And why on earth are we the last to receive our full compliment of ships? Really Really simple. Access. RN NAval Archives are on an Active naval base. and are harder to access (ok not sure i believe this one) But the main reason is just the shier VOLUME of Classes.. 16 classes of FLEET Carrier. Look at USN tech tree they could not even cobble together 7 without Escort and training CV. 17 classes of BB that were ether built or at least started 12 CA/CL we were actually quite light on these ships hence them being first Tech tree If you esclude Ships with Mixed Calbre Guns or Protected ships. If we include them again low tiers the choice is HUGE DDs well here the List is Huge i will just post the wiki page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_destroyer_classes_of_the_Royal_Navy

on this you are wrong. As i said above RN used Many many more distinct classes of DD in this time period than any other Navy in the World

MMM Please read.. I said nothing about the Guns in my post.. I said range finders. Simple. Because they have yet to design the RN DD tech tree or the Flavor of RN DD's SO using an American Lend lease Gives them time. Campeltown Gave players what they were Clamouring for. Another Ship with a white Ensign with out to much work for the WG team They have done this Multiple times.. Murmansk Yo Lang Anshan There will be British DD but they will take time. There are So many major Classes to choose from when compared to any other navy. There are over 40 major Classes or RN DD compatible for the time period of the game and that's linking Classes like the V and W DDs as one class
