Basically, one can get Hizen by completing all missions and paying 7800 doubloons or if they already have a Yahagi at port, by paying 3800 doubloons only.

@Humorpalanta I'm sure it was super fun for the surface ships of both teams to start the day with a 9 vs.9 double CV game.

He's been away from forum since Santagate started cuz he's been busy helping customer support. You should've done the same

1. Most of his videos are click bait. 2. Zoup's basing his comments on numbers without a link to the source and in a general fashion. 3. He also cannot grasp the meaning of game is dying motto used by the players. Game's dying does not necessarily mean the average number of players have been decreasing. In this forum and in some threads we have previously discussed this issue multiple times and saw that there are new comers as much or more than quitters. However, the amount of joy one gets out of the games is much less compared to past. Of course it would be perfectly okay for new comers not to know this difference since they can't do the past & present comparison but the old timers can do and this is one of the reasons many veterans stopped playing since last a couple of years. Is the game still enjoyable? I guess, yes to a degree. Casual players are casual, they don't care much about their own stats, game mechanics or new ships/classes being added, removed, buffed, nerfed. They come, play some games and go. So, for them it could be enjoyable. For some veterans, game is still enjoyable in the sense of playing some ships (and with their friends) in various modes but if you ask them whether it was more enjoyable 3-4 years ago, some would say yes because when they say game is dying, they are actually implying to the negative changes game has gone through as these changes lowered the quality of matches and hence the amount of joy. In the long run, a game with low quality of game play would also lose its player base. For instance, years ago we used to see 36K online players daily. Now what I see is between 24-26K at peak. Let's remember due to lack of sufficient amount of low tier players, bots have been introduced to tier 5 and lower tier games. So, to answer your question shortly, the game is not that bad otherwise most of us would not be here but it's been much better in the past.

The main problem is CVs' endless spotting mechanics. There is no way to develop and apply a strat. when everything is lit up.

Count me in pls, thanks!

Austin has almost double the reload time of shells, weaker HE but SAP, 75% RB, Fletcher torps and 30K HP pool with standard heal in comparison to Worcester's 45.5K HP and radar. Sounds like a mutated higher tier Anchorage with different gimmicks (and ofc without the smoke or radar).

I have 70 games in Somers in my alt account and I'm glad i didn't get it on my main account. In other words, not having Somers is not a loss really especially if you have other DDs including Shima and when you think its steel price tag. FDR however, seems like a more annoyingly fun ship to torment enemy teams.

Creating hype for an overpriced Somers. It will probably find its way into the loot boxes. No loss. It needed this. Good, except Minnesota. People will camp even more now. Nice Although they could have done this long time ago. I'm not sure about this ellipse change. The maximum amount of citadels i got with MvR was 3, while I can do 5 cita in one salvo with Enty dive bombers. Not sure if this is the cure or a sip of the cure for Implacable. Number of rockets are reduced because DD lives matter. Not sure about the slight buffs. Not interested in these.

And the skilled CV players are as seldom as running into Satan Claus.

You ignored my questions. If a T4 CV has no counter to Kamikaze, it has no counter to T-22, Nicholas, Acasta, Mutsuki, Minekaze, Jianwei, etc. either which means according to you, Tier 4 CVs cannot counter DDs. To say tier 4 CVs can't counter DDs shows lack of CV skills because any okayish CV player can counter any ship including DDs. Also saying a ship not having any weaknesses again shows lack of game and ship knowledge. The counters have been presented to you previously in many posts. I am not sure if you read them and didn't understand or if you didn't read the posts at all.

All IJN DDs have the same aerial detection of 2.5km, why are you only pointing out Kamikaze? Also Acasta practically has the same 2.57km, Jianwei 2.59km, Sirocco 2.7km T-22 has even lower 2.37km now what, nerf T-22? Or Nicholas has 2.45km which is also lower than Kamikaze, again nerf Nicholas?

I did not analyze overall events and daily grinds along with the containers, hence can't really comment whether altogether they offer an excessive amount of rewards or not. My comments are for the daily containers specifically and there are inconsistencies within the items which still could be fixed (i.e. SCs).

If you mean the daily container drops are too much or already too rewarding, can you elaborate it more?

My Comments; The daily container set ups are not exciting. Keeping in mind that these containers are given to the players as incentives to make them play the game daily, they are far from being enough incentive and stand rather at the very stingy side. We get below daily containers if we play roughly around 5-10 games depending on the game results; --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- More Credits Three items: 50,000 Credits . 50,000 Credits , 3x standard signals, or 400 Coal . 50,000 Credits , 3x standard signals, 2x Type 5 camouflages, or 500 Free XP (FXP). More Signals and Camouflages Three items: 4x standard signals. 4x standard signals, 5x Type 1 or 2 camouflages, 2x Type 5 camouflages, 500 FXP , or 400 Coal . The same possibilities as the second item. More Resources Three items. 400 Coal  400 Coal , 500 FXP , or 3x Equal Speed Charlie London signals. 400 Coal , 500 FXP , or 3x signals (Hotel Yankee , November Foxtrot , Juliet Charlie , Zulu , Zulu Hotel , or Papa Papa ). Try Your Luck Each daily container has a chance to become a Super Container when manually collected. The Try Your Luck (TYL) option is twice as likely to produce a Super Container. If one is not produced the award is one of the following: 4x non-special signals (most common) 2x Type 5 camouflages 2x consumable camouflages (not Type 1, 2, or 5) 750 Free XP 75,000 Credits  900 Coal  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ My Comments; I doubt the majority of players choose More Credits containers as 50,000 credit is so underwhelming. WG can either make this container reward more attractive by increasing the silver amount or add 400 coal to each items -1,2&3 or by merging More Credits with More Signals and Camouflages containers. More Signals and Camouflages containers may be more popular over More Credits containers but I think most of us choose between More Resources and Try Your Luck containers. The amount of items in More Resources containers can be increased. I.e. 500 coal instead of 400, 750 FXP instead of 500 and better signals instead of least useful, cheapest signals. Try Your Luck containers are mostly preferred by players who already posses huge amount of silver credits, FXP, coal, etc. which can drop a Super Container. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Super Containers Super Containers hold much more valuable rewards than standard containers. Every collected daily container has a small chance (~1.5%) to become a Super Container. Super Containers are occasionally awarded directly. Possible contents include:[4] 100x standard signals; 50x camouflages; 25x, 50x, or 100x special signals; 1,000, 2,500, or 5,000 Doubloons ; 50,000 or 100,000 Free XP ; 7, 14, or 30 days Premium account ; 15,000 Coal ; 1,500 Steel ; A premium ship, with a 10 point commander and a port slot, The more valuable the item (e.g. premium ship), the less likely it is to occur. The same rule applies for the amount: 1,000  is received more often than 2,500 , 25x than 100x special signals, etc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ My Comments; Since SCs are rare containers with low probability of getting one, their rewards should pay off. I know some players sometimes get multiple SCs in a month time while some others don't get any in a year although those who get 2 SCs in a month time are more likely not to get any SC the following month. Hence, the SCs rewards should really reflect the quality of a true SC. I can elaborate it; 1) 100xstandard signals could be some useful signals such as guaranteed 100xVictor Lima, India X-Ray, X-Ray Papa Unaone, Sierra Bravo or India Delta instead of the current ones. 2) 50xCamouflages can be guaranteed Special Camouflages OR 100x instead of 50x and Mars, FTW, Victory Salute, This is your day commander, Type-59, Gamescom Blue, etc. instead of camos with low effects. 3) 25x, 50x or 100x Special Signals. Okay now, WG must decide which one to give as a SC drop. Obviously a Super Container drop would be nice if it had 100x Special Signals. Not 25,x not 50x. How can 25 and 100 be equal drops or how can they both be called Super Containers? If a SC drops 100 signals, what is it called when it drops 25 signals...Quarter Super Container? or 50x drops, Half/Semi Super Container? -Looks like a Super Container but it's actually an Oil Can? -A Super Container, Yay!!! Oh damn, this is the Fake one with 25 signals? 4) 1000, 2500 and 5000 Doubloons. Exactly same as above. 5) 50000 or 100,000 FXP. Which one is Super Container? If 50,000FXP is a Super Container (SC), then 100,000FXP is a Double Super Container (DCS), Fat Super Container (FSC), Deluxe Super Container? or if 100,000FXP is a Super Container (SC) then 50,000FXP is a Half Super container (HSC), Robbed Super Container (RSC), A Honda that looks like a Mercedes or a Ferrari with Hyundai engine? 6. 7,14 or 30 Days Premium Days. Exactly same inconsistency and inaccuracy. 7. 15,000 Coal. Too small of an amount for a Super Container drop. Imagine a player who will get one, two SCs every six months or a year. If at least one or the only SC drops them a Coal Reward, it should worth it. How about 30K Coal, 40 or 50K Coal? 8. 1,500 Steel. Exactly same logic as above. Should be around 3000-5000 parameters. 9. A premium ship is made extremely difficult to drop in the first place, hence i won't even get into drop details. It is just ridiculous. As can be clearly seen, The Super Container drops are chosen carefully in a very stingy manner. Not only the SC drop rate is low but also the reward amounts are low, far from being satisfactory, and even fake reward amounts exist within the same reward category (pls see items 3, 4, 5 and 6). I'd rather like to call them Super Stingy Containers (SSC) until (if) they ever get fixed. Thanks for reading.

Says an alt account... Camping that causes losses is a toxic play.

I don't ignore anything. I have over 1K game experience in Kami sisters only which help me form my own opinion unlike you having to rely on others' opinions blindly to label a ship op. This ship is not broken. You still can't comprehend it after ten pages. Just because you think a ship is OP doesn't mean it is OP. You can't even differentiate the spectrum of player skills and go berserk when I give you same examples from the same player, following your own logic. Come on bro, get real...

You are showing a video from one of the best players in WoWs and this is the skill difference we have been talking about. But following your logic, here; Nueve de Julio is Op too, Or Mogami is broken, Or, Z-46 is straight op; And Mino, Lyon all ships are OP when you watch him.

I sure won't even when I have enough spare steel. I mean the steel prices are inflated, don't you guys think so? Imo; FDR is 33K / Should be max 29K Shiki is 32K / Should be max 27K Bourgogne is 30K / Should be max 26K Stalingrad is 28K / Should be max 24K Plymouth 27K / Should be max 22K Somers 25K / Should be max 20K or even lower.

Also you have hydro and smoke or hydro and radar combo in Mino. The only difference with consumables is Plymouth has another slot for its radar. As a ship in comparison, it is an Edinburgh and inferior to Mino in many aspects, i.e. shorter range radar , in other words it cannot stealth radar like Mino. So, it may be effective in some games due to potato average player base and being top tier but my point is, 27K steel is way too much for this ship.

I just watched some Plymouth videos. It is actually not a Belfast clone as it has no access to HE but only AP with Edinburgh hull. So, it is a tier 10 Edinburgh with no AA compared to Mino, worse gun reload and maneuverability again compared to Mino but radar (9km vs Mino's 10km radar) and smoke in different slots. Doesn't seem like it justifies 27K steel at all to me.

Just try it when there is a free captain re-spec. You give up from your torp reload but fire faster.

I had 12 lose streak once during a weekend.

If you want to get a Tier 7 Premium DD, I'd suggest Haida instead. But if you are open to other tiers, you have more options like, Tier 6 T-61, Tier 8 Kidd, Lo Yang, etc.

Congratz for getting the FDR I still have to wait for it.
