    Yorck vs Pensacola

    My impressions: Pensacola 203mm AP hits really hard and is easy to use. Yorck AP is almost unusable at all but short ranges, but the ship seems to withstand more punishment, specially at short distance, and has 6Km torpedoes. Pensacola is more of a long range sniper, and Yorck can be used at closer engagements. I have similar damage stats in them.

    The Return of the Katori!

    But as an AA platform Yubari is quite decent. Check the typical tier 4 cruiser average number of planes shot down per battle and compare with Yubari: Quite a difference. I don't think it really needs a buff in AA, but it needs it in the areas I explained in my previous post. But let's nor forget that this thread is about Katori, not Yubari

    The Return of the Katori!

    The problems with Katori and Yubari (I don't have Iwaki) have never been the quality of the guns or the secondaries. 140mm guns' dispersion is minimal, and they're accurate, and the secondaries... are irrelevant at those tiers. Half of the problems with Yubari would be solved creating an earlier hull with the 6x140mm guns in exchange for some of the AAA and the pitiful DP gun, for the people who don't want to spend the game escorting the big boys in AA duty. The other half can be solved by giving the engine a bit more of armour/health points. Fix that and you have a decent tier 4. I consider Katori more or less fine for a tier 3 Premium.

    Wait, the Kamikaze is for sale?

    I know this perfectly. I didn't like it then, and I don't like it now.

    Wait, the Kamikaze is for sale?

    I wonder what would happen if WG decided to sell in the Premium shop the special vehicles they gave in WoT to excellent players in Clan Wars. The shitstorm would be of epic proportions.

    Wait, the Kamikaze is for sale?

    Well, the fact that the ship is called Kamikaze R and was awarded during Project R may have given the "wrong" impression that it was purposely created for that event. Specially when you have a virtual clone called Fujin to sell in the shop and then a normal Kamikaze in the game files.

    Specific question about Grand Naval Battles

    As far as I know, ending date is June 8th, not 14th.

    sending doubloons

    You can't with the doubloons you already have bought, but you can send him a gift from the premium shop.
  9. 820+20 from the 100k XP mission that I'll finish this afternoon. Missed one of the 100k XP missions due to technical problems on my Internet line. Apart from that, I didn't bother with any of the carrier missions and the mission that needed 100 ships sunk in a DD. Bought Katori and Tachibana, a port slot and the two flag packs. 40 diamonds left, but nothing costs less than 50, so...

    Possible price change for Atlanta?

    Always thought Atlanta was overly expensive for its tier and for what it is. Even taking into account that most in WoWs is more expensive than in WoT.

    HMS Hood discussion

    I repeat. Tier 4 regular Battleships only see tier 5 battles (and premiums as well, only Nikolai is the exception). Obviously, in normal conditions, not if you do a poorly thought division. Of course, you can go to a tier 10 battle with your Myogi if you want so.

    Events: R vs GNB

    Project R was much better, as you could get a good ship by doing relatively easy missions, even though they had to change the goal because, as usual, WG screwed up at the beginning with the lottery of a number of Kamikazes as final reward. In GNB there were too many bad things: too long missions (WG, long =/= challenging), the boxes were 90% meh, the premium ships you can get as awards are cheap tier 3s at best, and then there is the famous 12M "It's a secret"... Another thing that didn't improve: information on WG's part. It was terrible back then, it's still the same 3 months later.

    GNB "its a secret"

    I never expected a premium ship as the final reward, but 10 camos for reaching the 12M diamonds is a disgrace and an insult to all the people who grinded like mad this last month. # D I S G R A C E

    Click in the missions box in the top left corner, and instead of "Daily missions" check "Missions".

    Oh god, here we go again... PS: No, I'm not going to answer.
  17. Seems like they are absolutely incapable of bringing new people to play their game other than with events, constant events, new events, and when you think it's over, still some more. And events are awful for the game play, and probably get more people tired than any other thing. I for one will ignore the ARP thing and probably the ranked battles season, which usually attracts the worst kind of players.
  18. Now something was added to my counters, but it's wrong. I wrote down where my battle counter and my XP counter were frozen this morning. That was at 486 battles and 66099XP. Since then I've played 3 games, for 1602, 1237 and 1441 XP. Now the battle counter lacks 1 game, and the XP counter is 68776 which could be the initial 66099+1237+1441. The first game for 1602 XP has vanished from my counter. How many more games have not added since the event started? Seriously WG EU, can you do a single event, only one, without screwing up things?
  19. The thing is that the permanent mission of playing games and the weekly XP mission are not counting any new games. I assume no other missions do, so no diamonds can get collected. If this is working as intended, it is completely useless.
  20. Then there's no need to add that goal. I cant get any more diamonds (supposedly the reason for that, so people can get a few more diamonds and open more boxes) if my battles don't count for nothing. Spare that farce, claim the event has finished due to the goal reached and move on.
  21. Played one game, no mission counters moved. Refreshed with the arrows, nothing. F5 nothing, logged out and in again, nothing. How do they expect us to reach 15M if no missions add to the counters?

    Shooting torpedoes out of the water with cannons.

    Torpedoes don't run close to the surface. They run much deeper (specially magnetic torps designed to explode underneath the keel of the target), and also much more forward than the bubbles you see on the surface.
