USN/Polish DD: DE for randoms, SE for TB and Ranked. Simply because in randoms you can burn lots of stuff. -T7 IJN DD SE. Fubuki in randoms I have AFT. Russian DD: SE+AFT..no CE

I would actually rather live in Thailand than USA. I just like rapidfiring guns

I compare them by playing them all and in addition comparing hard ship stats

Yes, killing destroyer is always priority

Yeah. It is much easier to take Benson/Fletcher/Gearing captain and put it to Sims and get the same results. IMO Blyska/Mahan/Sims are very equal in performance and all 3 can give great results in ranked. That said I would not take Hatsu or Kiev for ranked. I tried Kiev in ranked and will not try again. I have all DD's in T7.

I am liking Sims more than I expected. So far all wins in ranked and randoms.

I've had similar lag issues earlier, but they were very rare. After this patch they happen all than time. like every 2-3 games. I think it is worth noting that Nvidia drivers of GFX970 were also upgraded in the same day to new version. PS. Just now managed only 1 game and the UI went crazy again. Buttons don't work

Sims reload is 3.3 seconds which makes 72 shells per minute.

American DD should be played from close, if using guns. With Mahan you can use "area denial" tactics how ever, when you can launch 4 torp spread every 22 seconds, to 9.2km

That is what someone ELSE said today here in the forum. Don't remember who that was, according to winrates...

Overpens are very common with those 203 guns, specially vs cruisers in close range.

Atlanta my most played... so what does that make me?

Last time I checked Mahan Dpm was still better. Have they buffed it recently?

Sims problem is not gun arc. It is poor torpedoes and dpm

Because good Mahan players play it in ranked instead of randoms?

Hatsu and Sims are mediocre. Kiev is good, but suffers from bad concealment which makes it weak for ranked. Blyska is amazing in randoms and ranked. Mahan is the best T7 DD not only in my opinion, but also statistically(ranked). People who critisize Mahan either played it before buffs, don't have 5th skill captain, or need to L2P.

Lies. T7 DD's are not poor. Only Hatsuharu and Sims are. Others are amazing

Pink is the new green. It's just a thing that people wear nowadays. I am sure it is just a phase...

I also experienced massive lag issues. happened 4 times. Sometimes ship won't turn at all... keeps going straight. Can not type to chat. Then can type to chat but doesn't display while writing. Also Aiming reticle disappearing completely due massive lag. I ran speedtests and everything and network seems to be fine. it's the game lagging. I also had problems logging out of the game because could not press exit button. All this started after update AND Nvidia also updated their drivers exactly the same day. I suspect these 2 are related. Using GTX970

I've had the opposite problem. Refusing to exit game. Could not press "exit game" button.... other buttons worked.... now where is my tinfoil hat?

Good trick to not get frustrated, is to assume you will lose some FOR SURE and keep focus and smart play in every battle. If you must win all thsn time, or "grind", you end up being frustrated, which leads to more losses. So ACCEPT that those defeats come and focus on EACH GAME, not the grind.

Never sell module. If you sell. 4 patches later WG make sure you need that module... like increasing detonation chance...

You don't need irrevocable ranks for that. In fact WITHOUT them players spread more evenly based on their skill. Current method slows down progress of good players(in the middle ranks), because bad players are there to ruin your games. It is impossible to carry with too many bots. Too much random. Good player with solid good results can progress faster. Now you will get extra losses due bots, which would require much much harder carry... the real problem is that you stop getting extra star when you go up in rank

You are thinking this completely wrong way around. Regular player should nevet reach rank1. That exactly is the problem that poor players can play in high ranks, just by playing a lot. It should be limited by skill, so that only good players reach highest ranks, and poor ones should never get there, even with 1000 battles.

When you see Ranger/Independence bombers in your team. It is more or less autoloss, because enemy will permaspot your DD's, and you can't cap.
