If the RN ones are in 3D, then they're probably ready in February or March. German DDs are a quick line to make for 3D and it's been a while since the DE BBs, so March should be the latest (imo).

Hopefully this will finally end all those SN BB conspiracy theories.

The Spee camo is literally a bastardized Baltic scheme, so I don't think there's anything to complain about. The only problem IMO is that you can't train German captains on it.

It's a different cartoon. The colors are normal. Not historical, but plausible colors for a warship. Maybe someone will link a screenshot of the cartoon for you.

The Kagero is basically a given. Then Spee and Hiei. That's actually a pretty decent mini-faction, and they look less dumb than the ARP stuff too.

Haifuri collaboration... So it's an ARP style anime ship that you can't train German captains on, but it is the Spee.

I'm just going to grab the free version next year... or the MM gets revamped on EU.

Bei schwerer Artillerie wird der Begriff 'Kaliber' sowohl für die Rohrlänge als auch für den Durchmesser verwendet, besonders im Angelsächsischen.

It's not about range, it's about caliber and overmatch. With Nagato I just shoot the Kongo straight through the bow for 10k+ damage and can even citadel him like that, whereas Kongo can't do this to Nagato. Kongo can get some pen damage on the superstructure, sure, but the rest will bounce. With every salvo a Nagato will do at least 4x as much damage as Kongo and Nagato has better accuracy too. It's just completely impossible to win. You can run away, but the speed difference is only 5kn and you're not going to win by running away either.

T5 able to hold its own against T7?! Omaha is trash against any other T7 cruiser. Furutaka is also rough. New York doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell against Nagato and Colorado. Kongo has a chance, but it's small. König doesn't have a chance against Nagato and Colorado. All these ships will lose 10/10 games in the training room against a T7 equivalent.

Thanks for this info, I wasn't aware the disparity was that extreme. That's just insane. In that case, the problem is a lot broader like you said and T5/T6 are just the ones who suffer at the end of a very long chain.

T5/T6 is not just a bracket of stat padders and seal clubbers. A lot of people used to play those tiers because it's the best bracket to make money if you don't have premium ships. The meta at those tiers also used to be very balanced class-wise because it was halfway between the YOLO torpedo insanity of the low tiers and the boring BB camp meta of the high tiers. Before the change to the matchmaking, T5 and T6 had probably the most fun and balanced gameplay out of all tiers in the game. Not everyone plays this game with the goal of actually getting to T10. I have 3000 battles and no T10, and maybe I never will. T10 gameplay is slow and boring and now the best way to get interesting games is playing T7/T8 because the current matchmaking sucks you down towards more interesting brackets. Is that good for those tiers? Of course not. I played Nagato for 450 games before buying Amagi, and every game I play Amagi I wish I'd never bought it and just kept playing my Nagato. Screw the high tiers and their dumb meta.

Wenn man kein Geld ausgeben will, kann man auch einfach bis nächstes Jahr warten und die Animeversion für lau abgreifen.

Spee

lmao

They will not play 'similar'. Did you see the citadel hitbox? Please.

Yes.

Ja, das ist in der Tat ein Nachteil. Aber man kriegt viele Papa Papas über Ranked und die Kampagnen... Ich habe glaube ich 300 oder so.

Mit T10 camo, Papa Papa und Premium Account kriegst du 1000 freie Erfahrung pro Spiel (ohne andere Flaggen und ohne tägliche Boni). Wenn man dann noch die täglichen Boni bedenkt, kann man Missouri sicherlich innerhalb von 500 Spielen oder so bekommen. Klar, auch das ist viel, aber Missouri ist halt auch ein wirklich fantastisches Premium Schiff. Ich finde die Anforderung von 750k absolut fair.

Wir wissen definitiv von Sub_Octavian (russischer Entwickler) das WG eine 'interessante' (Wortlaut) Art in petto hat, den Seelenverkäufer unter die Leute zu bringen. Aber man kann nicht einfach T6 Schiffe für lau weg geben, deshalb werden die Missionen denke ich schwierig. Und weil es Beschwerden gibt, wenn nicht jeder eine Chance hat an Spee zu kommen, wird er halt zusätzlich nochmal verkauft. Das es eine Möglichkeit geben wird, ohne Geldaufwand an Spee zu kommen, halte ich für gesichert. Die Frage ist eigentlich nur, wie schwierig es genau wird.

Such a consumable wouldn't just alter the penetration but also the ballistics. It's not impossible that this could be coded into the game, but I find it highly unlikely.

I think this is a great gift for supertesters who invest a lot of time without having asked for a reward. However, it shouldn't be Alabama in my opinion: - Teasing the community with a highly-anticipated SoDak design and then restricting it until the lead ship arrives (next year?!) seems a little harsh. - If it has to be a SoDak nonetheless, then as others have said, it's a museum ship. Some people, especially on NA, probably have an emotional connection to this ship and want to play it. Indiana would have been a better choice since she was scrapped after the war. - Tier 8 is the bracket both for Ranked and for competitive play. If the ship turns out to be very strong (not saying it is, just hypothetically) then this would give clans with supertesters an advantage until the regular (and probably similar) SoDak arrives. I'm truly happy for the supertesters that they will be rewarded for their hard work. I just don't think this is the right ship at the right time.

Denke ich auch. Über die Tage wird es ein bockschweres Weihnachtsevent geben um an Spee zu kommen und dann im neuen Jahr den Pott für 20€ so. Schaut euch einfach Pearl Harbor an und addiert Eins und Eins zusammen.

Remember, ladies, you have another two days to apply for your personal Alabam— I mean, for the supertest.

The smoke is a big deal, but I guess you can use your hydro to displace enemies from their smoke and steal it.
