But if you add radar to mid tier cruisers... you change the balance.

Hmm... IMO one of the problems with the meta is that it makes the DD's relatively OP the longer they stay in the battle. This means, that the side that loses its DD's early on will more likely end up losing and vice versa. I'm not sure if giving the DD's heal would solve this problem or make it worse.

At least they are not a US corporation.

Super Containers are still super.... rare. .. but the contents are most likely to be super disappointing after having waited for one to drop like half a year....

I barely got into two...

Sake in the glass.

Not well. In part because the mission requirements are so completely messed up I can't figure out which ships would be my best choices.

I must be dyslexic...

Also, note, that IMO these are the exact situations where the role of the CC's is crucial.

'Unwise to Spend' would be a good clan motto.

Looks like I go back to collecting dusty old books then...

We get into that gray area I think. Also, if they state maximum damage is 7000HP it does not necessarily mean it will be that in practice due to.. RNG. Or it might only be when everything is optimal, including RNG... They can delete premiums now!

I'm sure the product details didn't include any other information apart from say, having smoke. If they make universal/meta changes they can still claim it matches the product description, even if it does not match your expectations.

Don't know how the EU law applies, not a lawyer myself. Does it require corporations to actually do what the law says, or does it work more like it works over in the USA.....

Hmm... but the servers are in the HRE... I mean the EU.

Legendary Russian taste for bureaucratic procedures and attitudes?....

My Albert failed to hit a stationary Kohlberg parked and broadsiding within easy reach.... all shots just landed all around the enemy. It sank me...

Balancing in this game is like trying to play solitaire with a deck that is a few cards short. My approach would have been to make combat performance as close to historical accuracy as possible, including ballistics and ship/plane capabilities. They could have instead handled the balancing with dynamically adjusted MM by assigning every a ship a 'combat efficiency stat' based on recent server wide performance. Not that I pretend to know a bloody thing about software or game development, but that kind of an approach would have made better sense to me. Would also, IMHO, be easier to manage and quite likely produce better results.

Three successful changes.. they must have failed at scummy monetization then?

I bet they nerfed Mikasa too!

The Russian ships quite understandably need to be nerfed to bring their performance level closer to the fleets of lesser naval powers.

Hope they won't neglect to mention my Admiral cousins...... on second thought, considering the things that happened in the Far East maybe they should....

I never realised this... ... what a cunning plan!

My sentiments exactly! I'd like to add at least the Mikasa to that list. For me, what makes an interesting ship is maybe half performance, half historic significance. Oleg is an interesting ship, having been part of the Battle of Tsushima and the flagship of Rear-Admiral O.A. Enkqvist (who is not one of my many distant potential cousins though there were some who were Admirals and officers of the 'War Fleet'. Could do name dropping but won't. ). Rozhestvensky apparently did not have a very high opinion of Enkqvist though.... There really should be more stuff to do with these ships. Of course, if I just forget about missions and stuff, I can play these ships more often, but another problem is that the queue times get longer when you go below tier 5. Bad thing, WeeGee, muy bad.

Everyone seems to be politely waiting for someone else have the first go at this cake thread. The only thing I would say is that the spawn positions on all maps are kinda crappy IMO. I'd prefer spawning like we do in the Operations.
