Too expensive, and in this game you need to take care of the credits if you want to reach higher tiers. The only thing I often use in the profitable tiers (4-7) is camouflage.

Mirrors pretty much my experience with the ships up to tier 5: 2 & 3 are OK, 4 is an absolute disaster, and 5 is great.

I reached rank 9, and you could still have idiots in your team at those levels. After downgraded to rank10 again I gave up playing. Good effort that game mode, but bad players can get pretty high and ruin the experience of the rest of players. The minimum level to get access to play these games should be much higher. Just having a tier 6-7 and reach account level 9 is not enough.

I think its easier to put Southampton-Gloucester in tier7. and Belfast-HypotheticalBelfast in tier8.

Not sure if you're trolling or simply playing the idiot, but it starts to be annoying. You've been complaining since the German cruiser line was announced. Up to tier 5 (the ones I've played) the only lemon is Karlsruhe. The rest are perfectly playable, and Konigsberg is borderly OP.

The only thing Cleveland is blatantly superior to Königsberg or Nürnberg (and Aoba, and possibly any other tier 5/6 cruiser developers may put in other nation's trees) is armor. It is not "much faster" (actually, Königsberg has the same top speed), and the differences in turning radius and rudder shift are not too big. The advantage of 3 guns I think is compensated by the difficult aiming in Cleveland.

That picture you posted is from ONI, which is US Naval Intelligence, and depicts a Mutsuki in pre-war state. Later in the war some Mutsukis were given more AA power (25mm mounts) in exchange for main guns. Some had 3 main guns left, some had 2. If you don't like it that way, you can keep the 4 guns with the 2nd hull.

Superb job!

And who decides who is a bad player? What if the one that decides puts you in the bad player bunch?

It's a game, and it's been like this since at least closed beta. I expect a pro player like you to know this things

EU Community Contributors are showing it in streamings, so probably will be soon for sale.

I can proudly say that I did too. "Buffs are for pussies" could be the text in the back. PS: and we could consider another T-shirt for the Karlsruhe.

I was holding my answer because I tried Königsberg last week but hadn't played it again when finally introduced in the German cruiser line, and we know that WG secretly nerfs ships very often so I suspected that it could have been the case. Not at all. Guns on Königsberg are still amazing, and even better after the pile of crapthat is Karlsruhe.

Finished with it. Ended up using a few XP flags (earned, not paid.. FY WG). My conclusion is that its roughly playable at tier 4 games, hopeless at tier 5 battles and a nice XP for the enemy team at tier 6 battles. Now I got Königsberg and in two games got more damage than in 5 or 6 games with Karlsruhe. I'll enjoy it while it lasts, because I'm sure Königsberg will get nerfed hard soon (and that soon means really soon).

Ignore that player. I killed him once in ranked battles with his Myoko COMPLETELY STOPPED next to a rock in Fault Line... He had been complaining a bit earlier that the other BB took 26K health from him (after I watched the replay it had been just 20K), and a salvo from my New Mexico took out the rest... In the chat pre battle, he considered himself a pro-player... :facepalm:

After a couple of tier 5 and 6 games this evening, I've been really tempted to expend free XP in a low tier ship (which is something I don't do). Thank God then came a couple of tier 4 games, and could do something (not much, I feel like I can top the list of my team with any other tier4 cruiser, but not with this one). But 18k XP is so far away with 400 averageXP per game...

I've seen a Community Contributor this morning playing it, and looked like a quite decent ship. But as usual, package with gold, premium flags etc is a no-no for me.

This is what Wiki says about that matter The submerged tubes are never added to any ship in this game (most notably low tier BBs). And as the later torpedo tubes were not added to all ships in the class, it's not completely wrong.

wow, 2 weeks... such a long time... Do you guys think patches grow on trees or something?

The fact that WG almost immediately broke a similar mod during CBT should give you a hint on WG's opinion about the matter.

Even the most inept of the testers would have realised that this ship is a tier 3 at best. Don't rule out that WG has simply ignored the comments and gone forward with the ship at tier4 due to whatever reasons.

I just expressed the same concern in another thread. Only that I didn't enjoy the Dresden at all...

I wonder why they put Kolberg in tier3. Differences with Dresden are minimum. I say remove Kolberg, downtier Karlsruhe to 3 where its 15cm guns can be of some use, and add Emden at tier 4, which at least has a 6-gun broadside and is a bit faster. My experience up to tier 4... I don't like them. They're fragile as silk (I've been detonated with each and every one of them), they lack punch, not specially fast and the gun arc is cleveland-esque, which is not good. I did try tier 5 Königsberg last week and did really enjoy it. Now I'm afraid that with the patch they secretly nerfed it and will be as bad as their previous cousins. If that's the case. It will be a good number of battles for nothing.

Citadel hits are counted separately. 23+3=26 hits

Quite large? As large as a big destroyer or a small Light cruiser. Abdiel class: 122m, 2615 tons standard Tribal class: 115m, 1854 tons standard Yubari: 138.9m, 2890 tons standard Six rapid fire 4in DP guns and a few AA 2-pounders... I'll take it for tier 4 (at a reasonable price not in a bundle)
