I wonder why nobody (except one person) reacted on this glorious tidbit... Even with the diverse examples of the skills partially being utterly atrocious we will get to keep them. Because, hey, feedback is not important unless it's not "da, da, gud job comrades... we lov your work, have more vodka and cheap females on us, take my rubles.." Not I really expected it end different, after all the reework taught me.

The real pain is that there are enough people who would really appreciated getting utterly idiotic OP CVs - russian or not - because reasons. And most of them would still ending up with potatoish stats in them..

Objection, Your Honor! When I my BBs I usually send shells up to my maximum range in direction any spotted enemy DD in my range and not obstructed by obstacles... Nothing better do get a hit - even when it's only one shell from a slavo and it's only a couple hundred HP done - over 17+ klicks range.. tells the enemy DD that he had to watch for lead coming his way from a loooong range... And at least at medium tier - so 5 to 7 - some (!) BBs are nicely equipped to go a-hunting for DDs (Normandie, Dunkerque and Strasbourg especially, but also a few others) when one has mastered the art of Adjusting Your Shell Type and Knowing When To Expect The Torps Coming Your Way. Yeah, not something advised against Unicorn DDs... but against the average potato in a Fubuki seeing a Dunkerque sailing full speed - Damn the Torpedoes! - ahead towards him, with those 8 barrelholes getting bigger and bigger and pointing at it... I think (!) that some people get a slight bit nervous seeing it... Sooo... I guess (!) those among us, who don't see themselves as "(insert whatever class here) Main" but play all classes kinda equally would (should?) not make the mistake to ignore the chance to stick some hard nasty things into an enemy DD when spotted...

Strange day today... Somehow I managed to win 13 of 16 battles today... random... solo... With my Yubari I got a nice T4/5 battle with 2 T4 CV (Hosho and Hermes) took a fancy for me... it helped a bit that an Orion was sailing close to me for a bit of the way that took me right beside the enemy Hosho, to get my third kill of that battle by sticking a bunch of torps into it from point-blank (which ended the battle with a win, with 50k damage done and a 3.7k PR... and 44 planes shot down (39 from the Hosho... Hermes was more intelligent)) I also played my four french BBs - Normandie, Dunkerque, Strasbourg and Jean Bart - and won all four battles. Most notably in the Normandie in a T7 battles, which often surprises me. Like today, when I gathered 108k damage and a PR of 2.9k, even though I only sank one ship... I can also say that it is not impossible to play (medium tier) Cruisers (in random battle) as in my Yahagi (4 sinkers, 69k damage, 5k PR, win), Southern Dragon (60k damage, no sinker, 2.1k PR, win) and Fiji (1 sinker, 70k damage, 2.2k PR win) I obviously wasn't instantly annihilated and even sometimes lived until the end of the battle...

Time to feel like a really, really REALLY dirrty sealclubber again.. Potao Alert showed me my team with 48% WR and the opponents with 47.4% Each team had three players > 50% Winrate (account) Didn't expect it to turn out like this... Call me sealclubber... (even though 5 player on the enemy team had 2000+ battles each

Not much different to people putting that much effort posting "helpful" comments on the forum methinks. ^v^

Fixed that for You

Play better. Just hiding Your stats won't change a thing.

Nah, no need... I think I could imagine Your choices if would care to bother...

so.. two examples... not even really two, as increased torp speed isn't new and shima could profit from it before... so in fact one example... massive... one... nope, don't see any connection between these two words....

I still fail to see any "massively improvement" there

Please define "massively"... and maybe also define "improved", too... Just to clear things up a bit...

Considering of amount of it that You usually produce, this is an interesting statement.

AreYou sure you're playing these ships as they are supposed to be played? 'Cause even now there are quite a few people who don't not get burned down while getting into secondaries range...

It's not programmed to understand irony, I think... Never had that. And I answer any survey I get offered. Had in fact never any survey that asked of my opinion of any game mechanics or changes of them in detail.

The surveys are either a popup asking how satisfied one was with the last battle, with no options to give any reasons or details for the rating one gives or quite a bunch of questions about which social medias I don't use, where I don't follow WGs news and shieet and nothing really about how I think about specific changes in the game mechanics so.. yeah, marketing cosmetics... nothing more.

You just described the perfect game mode for the implementation for submarines... ^^

fixed that for You. That "T7 problem gets into T9" doesn't differ much for the one that T5 BBs have meeting T7 BBs... or T6 BBs getting r*ped by T8 CVs etc. etc. And contrary to the "it's the tier, not the players..." I think the player themselves are a large part of the problem themselves. Those who have enough experience and knowledge about the abilities and flaws of their ships usually do better when uptiered. But of course that's only my opinion...

Busi.... *yawn* Ranger, win, 56k damage, 2 sinkers... still no fun... Furious, win, 36k (lots of T8s there and I'm too potato to heavy damage against them... lost only 29 planes total though... so probably just playing not aggressive enough... but idc) and 1 DD sunk... Now to the real battles: Got in a battle in my Normandie, in which only did 37k damage, but 3 sinkers, as some DDs thought themselves immune against BB HE... and an enemy BB that thought that showing it's broadside after I switched to AP was a good idea... we also did win the battle... In the end I won 6 out of 7 today, most in a less than glorious manner, but a win is a win is a win... I didn't notice much "DeadEye" going around me. On the other hand using french secondaries specced BBs didn't lead to horrendous battles.

Aaaaaand here it started to go wrong. Could only have been worse if You would have been in a Smolensk. I wonder though the where outcry was when there was this lol-boat divisions - 2 Yamato+spotter planes + CV spotting enemy CV - taking out enemy CVs right at when the battle started (okay, technically at around the what? 40 second mark or so, due to guns loading and planes having to cross the map... but started-ish enough...)

Weeaboos took over this part of the forum and don't even have the decency to post boobs or at least fan service pics.

So paying a bounty for attracting new paying customers? Sounds to be a wee bit on the desperate side to me... I mean, giving stuff in game away for it.. ooookay... But even paying real money instead of in-game goods or their own imaginary in-game currency... Have the player numbers on the US server dwindled away lately?

And after doing the global reset before the 18th Feb there's of course the option to go into the Dark Depths of T2 brawling with a ship with an untrained captain... or just play CoOp for a while until all the dreg of the skill reeework has settled

fixed that for you

Business etc. etc. Got a T6 battle for my Ranger today. I barely managed 1 sinker and 30k damage done before the battle was won... so it's easy T6 battle wins or getting a T8 battle and hoping for a non-potato team for me when playing CVs... For Furious it was the other option: T8 battle with a team getting sunk everywhere around me... 3 sinkers and 48k damage, but a loss... *sigh* All in all I managed to win 9 of 12 today, with mostly average results... except: Normandie - in a T6 battle, where it's easy to shine for her - even though I only concentrated on taking down a DD and a BB on my flank... and getting a bit damage done after taking these two down.. so 2 sinkers, 116k damage, 3.4k PR... Krispy Kreme... good old trusty KK... a T5 battle with a poor little T4 CV which didn't waste too many planes on me (only 7) while I was able to do "my thing" - meaning: sending HE at everything in the (now shorter) range of my guns and wiggling my KK's tushy to not get hit myself - allowing me two sinkers, 88k damage and a 5k PR Seems the skill reeework didn't hit the KK as hard as some other cruisers and that DeadBrain DeadEye skill isn't that usefull for T4 to T6 BBs due to they smaller maps they have to fight on...
