  1. It's okay as a popcorn flick and there are a bunch of references to both actual naval battles and fandom, but don't expect any super serious plot developments. Also the CG is awful.
  2. Profitability or some sort of language barrier most likely isn't what made them region lock the EN version as that'd make no sense at all. In my mind the only sensible reason left is not wanting or not having the resources to bother with age ratings. Also built my first AR. It's an AK-47.

    Double CV matches... Why?

    I will talk whatever I want about Evasive Maneuver! Your waifu is trash! Seriously though, if it wasn't an essential part of my income I'd not even bother to kill the planes of potatoes who took EM. They're hindering themselves harder than I could ever hope to do. Even with proper micro EM impacts the amount of strikes you can fly per match, though. If you believe that's a worthwhile trade off, fine. I certainly don't. If you get killed by auto drop you deserve it. Nothing in this game is easier to dodge than a TB auto drop.

    Four torp hits - no damage?

    Eh? For me it just failed a bunch of times. Guess even forum has RNG now. :D

    .......well, I got another one. Even made it myself. A to embed though, so I'll just post a link: https://imgur.com/8gD4ArX

    Double CV matches... Why?

    Pff, nothing easier than that. - remove noob trap mechanics, upgrades and skills (auto drop, Evasive Maneuvers, Emergency Takeoff just to name a few) - implement thorough tutorial explaining the basics of CV play You know, just like CV players have demanded for years. Anything beyond that can simply be labeled as "git gud". I hope you realize that this can be said about every class in the game. And please, I can easily kill 3-4 opposing same tier DDs on my own, then have disproportionate impact on the battle compared to cruisers and BBs. Yet for some reason I never see people crying out about how unfair it is that skilled DD players can influence a battle to such an extend. The actual reason why CVs are "broken" is because average player skill is so low that if you'd jump down into that abyss you'll die of old age before you hit the bottom. Skilled CV players decide games because literally no one knows how to play this game beyond a very few people across all classes. If given the chance I am able to win games on my own in CVs not only because I'm capable of dominating the opposing CV, but because everyone else is also serving themselves up to me on a silver platter. Heck, I can (and even have to) take caps in my CV on a semi-regular basis because almost everyone in this game is too stupid to do so or deny me from doing it. Are there issues with CVs in their current state? Sure. But the primary problems lie elsewhere. Skilled CV players simply benefit from a lot of the failures WG has piled up over the years. - BB overpopulation? More DDs as victims and less AA cruisers to worry about. - Lack of CVs? Less people running AA builds or DFAA - Removal of alt attacks in low tiers? Fewer CVs that will learn how to play, yay! - The captain skill rework? Even fewer people running AA as now other builds become viable. - More AA buffs and AA on ships? Even less CVs, also hello CV divs! - Abysmal average player skill? yes, gotta love that target rich environment. - Smoke nerf? Oh, thank you for even more spotting and striking potential. - RN BBs? Sure, why not wipe entire ships of their AA suite in just 2-3 hits. - AP bombs? Gotta love the ability to wipe out AA cruisers, the direct counter to CVs, in a single strike. The list goes on and on. Thus the need is born to dumb down CVs so that unskilled play can go along unpunished. The CV rework is a monument to WG's failure to educate their playerbase and complete and utter disregard of skilled play or progression, preferring to let braindead potatoes run rampant. To say that this is some problem isolated to how CVs work is stupid beyond belief.
  7. Eh, it's out? Never received a mail despite signing up. *checks spam folder* ...., there it is. EDIT: Seems to be region locked, can't find it in the Play Store on my emulator. Apk can be obtained here, though: https://girlsfrontlineguide.com/girls-frontline-en-apk-and-download-links/ EDIT2: Defnitely region locked. An update requires you to go to the Play Store to download it directly which you cannot do if you're not living in one of the countries specified on the above website. I got around that by using APKPure on my emulator.

    Could you do something with bots?

    Bots are vastly better than approx. 90% of the playerbase. If you see something incredibly stupid, that's most likely an actual human playing. No, I'm not joking.

    The CV Captains Cabin

    If he actually knows what he's doing: You don't. Best you can hope for is getting some strikes in when he's distracted. A single fighter is not enough to outplay three opposing ones.
  10. Shino actually. Proceeded to bs about how he has played Atlanta despite not having one in port, too.
  11. Makes me wish I could teamkill without repercussions, really. Also - detonate 3 minutes into the game - still better than some BBaby who survived
  12. Afaik floatplane fighters did exist though they usually performed poorly in combat against real fighters. The only model I know is a Japanese one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nakajima_A6M2-N Generally floatplanes were used for scouting and spotting for artillery. During the war they were also used for Search & Rescue to recover downed pilots and ASW. After the war they were replaced by helicopters.

    Shinonome

    Shinonome is the closest you'll ever get to T8 Fubuki, which was one of the best DDs tier for tier.

    0 FPS Random but 60+ Co-Op?

    Tried clocking your CPU back to default values? Other than that, can't see anything wrong really. Perhaps you're better off contacting customer support.

    Essex takes 3rd place. Wat.

    0 FPS Random but 60+ Co-Op?

    Well, coop does have fewer players in it, so that could be the reason why you're getting better performance there than in randoms. Could maybe help if you post your specs and OS here.

    0 FPS Random but 60+ Co-Op?

    Have you tried the usual stuff such as checking if your system is overheating or throttling?

    Friedrich der Große - How do you play this thing?

    I just played her like a Bismarck and she worked out just fine tbh.

    [PSA] Basic guide when you have CV in battle

    Not exactly the fault of CVs when everyone is running hydro, radar & survivability skills or sailing ships that are weak to airstrikes, innit? Best embodiment of that is the much praised radar YY. Drop a CV into the match and suddenly radar YY becomes the most horrible DD to play in ranked ever. Make just 2-3 out of 7 ships AA cruisers on the other hand and suddenly CVs won't have such a good time anymore. Ranked may be a playground for CVs currently but that has little to do with CVs themselves. Last time I played ranked (which to be fair was well over a year ago) everyone and their mother was running AA which made striking anything, even DDs, pretty much impossible. Below rank 5 I frequently went out of a match with ~10k damage dealt.

    The Legendary US Captain William Halsey

    , missed the 3 key without checking. 1 DD for each TB + AP DB strike on vulnerable targets.

    The Legendary US Captain William Halsey

    Gonna put him on Enterprise (or Midway once I weeb out the AL collab hits). If RNGesus is kind I'll only need 3 full strikes for Confederate.
