Exactly, it's about making the most money. So you wait with new content until you are confident that people start leaving for lack of content, because that's where you make the most of new content. I.e. we've seen the data for German BB guns quite a while back and we already know that they'll going to be released in August this year. Does that not make you suspicious whether or not those ships aren't already ready to go right now? Gamescon in Cologne 2016 is a fixed date and it appears that they've been planning to present the German BBs there for at least 3/4 of a year beforehand. Same with the British lines. People have been asking about the Brits at least since closed beta, probably even during alpha already.

Agreed. There'll probably be a lot more players who complain to Sega and CA about how much they disagree with their DLC policy!

Frustratingly, it wouldn't need that much of a buff. Increase the turret traverse time a bit, give it just slightly larger Torpedo angles, make her a bit less vulnerable.

AA stuff requires Carriers to be around in the first place. Granted, not that much of an issue at Tier 4, but still a prequesite you have to bring along to make the floating citadel worth bringing along in the first place. 10% chance for fire isn't that surprisingly high when you consider that you only got four barrels to work with, which can also be quite easily knocked out. Kuma, Phonix and Karlsruhe don't need the better concealment, because they're very much gunboats. The Kuma incidently has even 7km range torps where the Yubari has 6 km range. Torp reload is 49 seconds. You only get to 44 with the captains perk, where I'd argue for the turret traverse perk instead.

Ok, so the ship can dish out good AA cover fire once per battle. It's maneuverable. Cons: - slow turret traverse speed - horrible torp angle - 2 turrets which are often knocked out - few torps - huge citadel - not very good AA to start with, which makes the AA skill rather dubious. I.e. in a dedicated AA ship I'd expect it to be able to protect allied ships within the AA curtain from most air attacks. However, you'll likely only get a plane or two out of an attacking squadron.

Ich empfehle einen Beruhigungstee zum Hanfkeks. Das ist ja nur erstmal ne ganz, ganz grobe Umfrage. Ob, wann und mit welcher Ausstattung ein möglicher premium CV kommt steht noch sowas von in den Sternen, da lohnt es sich wirklich nicht über ein Loadout zu spekulieren.

Die Nikolai ist einigermaßen wendig für ein Schlachtschiff, ganz so einfach zu treffen ist sie nicht. Die Kanonen reichen um einigermaßen regelmässig Kreuzer zu onehitten, auch bis T6. T5 Schlachtschiffe können noch Zitadellentreffer durch die Nikolai kassieren. Sie ist zwar langam aber sie kann wirklich viel austeilen. Und man munkelt das schon das eine oder andere Flugzeug abgeschossen wurde ;-)

Finde es immer wieder beeindruckend wie so mancher wie du daher kommt und sich beschwert das er nicht unverwundbar ist, dann noch absoluten Unsinn zu den Abwurfdistanzen von sich gibt und darüber hinaus absolut unbelehrbar ist. Du macht ganz viele Dinge ganz furchtbar falsch wenn du ständig volle Torpedodrops abbgekommst, so einfach ist das.

I'd second a refund. I haven't touched the thing much since we left CBT and considering how poor it's performance is, I don't intend to either. Let us know what their response was, I could want to join on the refund thing. The whole notion that MK needed the buff after they changed BFT and AFT is just... well. It may be justified, but there is no explaination why they wouldn't buff other ships as well, such as Mogami (which is on the same friggin tier) or other, much neglected ships such as the Yubari.

If you're attending there, can you please whip some sense into those people at Creative Assembly and Sega? Unless they stop doing their shitty DLC policy, they ought to have their stuff burned down... -.-

Reminds me of a Mogami player in ranked who insisted on dropping all his torps towards the enemy, regardless of whether there were friendlies bloody obviously in the way or not. Yes, ranked of all places. Yes, gold bracket (rank 10 - 6).

Don't shoot the messanger.

Maybe you hit P somewhere during the fight? Kinda odd because while I don't use that perk, my secondaries are always firing when they should.

You realize you have to assign the target to make your secondaries fire? 'cause the tooltip says: "Secondary guns only open fire at targets designated by the player. [...]"

Yeah, no technical issues for me either (FPS drops or the such).

Ladies and Gentlenerds, fasten your seatbelts. https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=ru&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fforum.worldofwarships.ru%2Findex.php%3Fshowtopic%3D45418%26view%3Dfindpost%26p%3D1897096 It'd seem that WG RU asks the players (only those in RU community of course) what they'd think about a premium aircraft carrier.

So you drop torps regardless of whether blue ships are potentially in the way and then blame them if they run into your carelessly dropped torps.... Erm... yeah, right...

Hier sind auch Bilder von den russischen Kreuzern: http://www.himmelsdorf.de/russische-kreuzer-t2-bis-t10-bilder/

AFAIK those were paper designs only. May be the AA guns were earmarked for that ship, but they never went there.

H39 and H41 were just paper studies as well. Granted, the other ships are or could be based on actual ships, but T9 and T10 are not. German CVs also are ... well, they'll have to be rather inventive to come with that branch.

Unless of course you are a company and try to have something at the ready to drop in in case you need to. However, the Russian cruisers have been announced quite a while back, in context with German BBs if I recall correctly. I still can't stop wondering how WG can make the argument that they want to push out branches which were there historically so they have fewer paper ships to come up with and at the same time push out Russian branches instead of, say, British, French or Italians. Try to come up with Russian battleship or carrier branches without including 80% paper designs. Nevermind that German branches would be not that much better in BB and CV respects.

Ähm... nunja, laut russischem Forum: (Links siehe weiter oben)

Ich bin mal so frei und schmeisse die Links dazu hinterher: Weiterhin möchte ich daran erinnern, dass ingesamt vier neue Forschungszweige für dieses Jahr angekündigt sind. Einer fehlt also noch in der Aufzählung. Was mich besonders verwirrt: Bisher war ich der Ansicht, dass die britischen Kreuzer als erstes erscheinen werden, nun scheint es als ob die russischen Kreuzer zuerst kommen.

Kurbain, I wouldn't know if I'd recommend Last stand over the perk which increases turret traverse. Take the Ashan for example. Without said perk, the guns rotate so slow that you can't set your ship to 1/2 turn without losing the ability to shoot on your target.
