    I picked the third option since balancing the ship for other tiers would be more time consuming and tedious than simply trying to do it in it's current bracket. (unless that it would simply be far more logical to move it up or down a tier for it too be balanced in the first place). Too be honest i preferred the whole, worse or slightly worse than elited vehicles but better or slightly better than stock vehicles approach to balancing. Which of course said vehicles would get a big bonus to free exp, credits and crew/captain training to compensate (and not make silver ships irrelevant or pointless).

    one of the best covers for this song. original done by the legendary isley brothers. conveys an important message that will most likely be prominent throughout time immorial till this species ends.

    CV's - Good looking, but that's about it.

    Basically artillery 2.0 but with guided missles instead in the shape of planes.

    Why this CV rework is FAIL

    CptBarney replied to OOAndreasOO's topic in General Discussion

    Well at least i know what its like to be focused by cv’s. In my queen elizabeth trying to push up with two cruisers and a dd and ended up getting killed eventually due to both lexington and shokaku focusing me and the other cruisers. Kinda horrible trying to dodge torps and cruiser plus some bb fire. Was shocked to see four torps coming my way. (Almost made me scream). Ended with 51k damage as one of the few tier 6’s and a kill (couldnt kill the hipper in time). While this rework is fun, it does have obvious glaring issues and these most likely wont be solved just in the same way artillery in wot’s will never really be solved entirely. wish cv’s had more team based abilities like dropping heal packs or reload boosts or something. I dont know something else that doesnt just force them into a purely damage role and in clan wars a spot and damage maniac.

    And there we have it: CVs in Clan Battles

    CptBarney replied to FixCVs_Nautical_Metaphor's topic in General Discussion

    Oh i thought they were going to hold cv’s off untill they were decently balanced or fine tune mechanics. Kinda glad im not in a clan
  10. CptBarney
    Wasnt expecting the barrage of reply’s lol. But thanks anyways. I think they should do something like the ponies but with ship girls to pee people off my luck has been non existant in this event so ive given up. Im gonna save meh cubes untill the french ladies arrive or anything interesting comes my way. suprised yamato and musashi arent in yet. Also any word on that azur lane anime? I hope yorkie is in it...
  11. CptBarney
    So azur lane ships might be a thing then in wows?

    personal opinion on WG, CV, no tldr

    CptBarney replied to Yosha_AtaIante's topic in General Discussion

    That's quite a nice post too be honest. Because im not a good player i always found myself fully concentrating regardless of mode (rts or tps). Also nice to know your taking the time to teach people the in's and out's as well. I just wish CV's had other utilities like dropping smoke or a small spotting bobbing boye, something more team based but i guess that can wait. I have to admit games damages vary quite a bit from around 36k in my ranger to as much as 89k (what i managed so far after 8.1.1) and i've noticed that my influence isn't as strong as it was. Although in some situations where you need to spot the last ships in a point based game mode and your dead can make your blood pressure raise to no end lol. now for yorkie and misss booooogue to appear.

    CV- The DD scourge (DDs need Nerfs)

    CptBarney replied to sgtmarple's topic in General Discussion

    Another example of CV's not running away was a tier 7 game with two furiouses on both sides. both died but our furious died by the most hilarious way with a fubuko ramming into it after messing up its torps at like 2.5km away xD. I saw the secondaries blaze away but they did below avg damage but because of the range they werent able to do much else and so the fubuki rammed the furious before it could get taken out by our friendly schaernhorst. This CV had ages to move and was in the same position for quite sometime especially with me and this aboa defending the right side of spawn for awhile with a duke of york and a mahan (both died). Think it shows how important map awareness and even prediciting where enemies might turn up plus future team locations to prevent yourself or lessen your chances of getting killed. But DD's shouldn't be nerfed because they are able to breakthrough/sneak through enemy lines (the whole point of them usually). I doubt secondaries will do much even if buffed unless more guns are given. but that could prevent dd's from getting to close causing issues. (i think i liek secondaries too much )

    HVAR vs Tiny Tim and CV captain build

    CptBarney replied to elblancogringo's topic in General Discussion

    Im guessing IFHE also doesn't work on the ranger? wish i respecced now since i have a 14 point captain on her atm. I didn't go for concealment since from the almost 90 games i've played so far, it probably won't make that much of a difference anyways. Good thing the lexington sounds good though.

    [Poll] CV's Rework vs Rollback

    CptBarney replied to Gojuadorai's topic in General Discussion

    I tend to fly my Rocket planes up first then suicide them into the enemy fleet while doing around 6-10k damage on avg (depending on tier and if any fires aren't put out got as high as 14k at one point). while also looking at the minimap to see where the entire team is going so i can position and move my carrier as needed. Then go for Dive bombers or torp bombers if i see lots of bb's especially ones sailing in straight lines although they still work against cruisers. I've also had this waypoint bug where i set my ranger to go forwards but will start reversing and/or start going in werid circles (sometimes). i've also had a thing where my planes teleported off the map (lol bad el2azer) and even a GUI error where i couldn't see the icons and only the press f to return message for awhile.

    CV- The DD scourge (DDs need Nerfs)

    CptBarney replied to sgtmarple's topic in General Discussion

    I don't find DD's to be overpowered, i mean im still able to kill tier 8 dd's in my ranger even if they are chasing me with dive bombers and some rocket planes (torp bombers are useless only good if you can attack rapidly or if you want to force the dd into another direction. Rockets where the go to weapon to kill dd's but their damage and accuracy (i think for both) got nerfed so it's dive bombers usually for DD's. at least for me anyways. ive noticed some players in CV's rarely move in their CV's and when they do its usually in the wrong direction (or because the team is too bad to actually increase the amount of map they control). I have been attacked by DD's on smaller maps but thats because the team fails epicly at basic map control and/or because the map is pretty small so they can slip by sometimes and your easier to spot.

    De Grasse weak without healing abilty ?

    CptBarney replied to Beastofwar's topic in General Discussion

    How does this compare to the la galissonaire? Im wondering since thats one of my fav cruisers (not sure why french vehicles get played the most by me) and i wouldn't mind a captain trainer at somepoint.
  22. CptBarney
    Its been going nicely despite the fact that i only play like 5-10 games at a time. p.s also liked your post since i like these discussions and that guy seriously needs to get some friends.

    Is this how it works??

    CptBarney replied to Ruffnecks's topic in Off-Topic

    probably a replay bug or an error on youtubes part.

    CptBarney replied to Black_Prince42's topic in General Discussion

    For the sake of clarity lets just call them attackers even if they werent called that historically, as people are getting confused with you praising the fighter consumable which is quite literally useless atm.
