I do believe so. Ive learned it from Flamu and he usually knows his crap and when i started to aim lower i get much better hits. That said i still think this plane-aim can get a bit buggy at times, specially if ships hide behind islands. I also mostly use this to melt BBs with long range HE spam, not using it to much to get citadells on broadsiding targets.

Another point. Why are compliments anonymous? I often compliment good players on the red team and I would wish WG to make it possible for them to see that someone on the other side felt they played great, its a feelgood thing! I would even want the reports to be seen, this anonymous-i-can-crap-on-you-from-stealth-because-internet-crap is way to much. If you cant report a player like a man then dont do it at all!

Have you seen the Premium camo for Cleveland? A clown Pinata on Crack!!

Problem is that if u like to play Zao or Hinden its one of the most OP consumables, because you can burn down any T10 BB with eaze using that. Dont know how many kiting/running BB i have melted using the plane. What ive learned using it is that u always need to aim lower then you think to hit the right spot. I only wish there was a button allowing me to switch between plane view and ship view when the plane is in the air, because if you suddenly awitch to a target much close you tend to over shoot a mile or two, and using the RMB to quickswitch between zoomed in and out can be a bit tricky.

Dont have neither Eugen or kidd but can strongly recommend Lo Yang, great ships with strong hydro and if you dare to equip the 6,7k torps it can be really mean to the red team (those torps are also very good when you bully enemy DDs out of caps with your hydro).

10 years later after playing WOW as a full time job ..... "YEAH! I unlocked my second special upgrade ......!" Is anyone going for them all? I will only focus on Hinden since its my most played T10 and the upgrade apparently makes it immune to fires?! So thats nice.

So i log in today to try and grind the new US cruiser line. I tried to access the Dallas both from port and from the tech tree to start and grind to the Helena (have the Cleveland from before) but every time i clicked on Dallas i got CTD:ed?! So finally i re-bought the Omaha to research Dallas from Omaha port and then it worked, but as soon as i equiped the ships and pressed Battle-button i got CTD:ed again? Then when i tried to re-login to the game i just entered its just crash after crash? Its just like something with the new ships (Dallas) that bugs my game out? I sent a report to support and waiting for response, but im just curious if im the only one here?

So i finally got into the game and tried to enter another battle in another ships since my probably dead Dallas was stuck in a game and i get CTD:ed again?! Tried to re-log in 4 times to reach this ship in the match but just crash after crash?! Finally after 15 minutes i could re-log in to tha game again and i received this ..... So banned to Co-Op for 10 matches before i can try and play Dallas again and probably receive another ban? Can still not access the Dallas in port even tho that match is long over? Stellar patchwork there WG!! And i had no trouble playing the game all day yesterday so this is just a new "bonus"...

36k coal, had the same experience as you in ranked, never made it passed 10-12.

Hindenburg, always fun!

Got the Monagan in a crate. Haventfinished the mission yet tho...

Quite slow thank you for asking! Ive actually done worse then you. Think i have 2 stars on second level, doing the old 1+1+1+1 rinse-repeat! But going on vacation now so i bet my pace will pick up a bit!

Had a pretty stellar game in the Yamamoto - Akizuki! 6 kills and over 170k damage done! Kraken with the Yamamoto captain triggering that amazing special skill that gives you 1.6 second reload (i think) and a crazy Conqueror heal on the Akizuki. Kraken, Confederate and High Caliber. If you want to check out all my other Yamamoto Kraken and First blood games check out my Akizuki Playlist on my channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjTFH4vF-jnNdTSppCezDIw/playlists?view_as=subscriber If you guys dont have Yamamoto on your Akizuki, you are missing out! Have a good Saturday folks!

I think you hit a teammate with a torp and when he let it flood the damage gets transferred over to you and you kill yoursrlf and get the penalty since you actually did team damage

I am in pretty much the same situation as you right now. Wondering if i should buy Nelson or save the XP for another T9 (not Musashi tho since i already own Yamato and dont like to play even her). But in your case i would recommend you to buy Musashi because you will loose your will to live trying to grind Yamato the ordinary way and i dont think Musashi is so much worse (just a bit nerfed AA i believe). Just be aware that Yamato/Musashi is a really static and boring ship to play, you pretty much need to sit bow in at the back sniping, because showing any broadside in that ship and you get deleted. Nelson is pretty much the same type of playstyle, but at T7 (nice matchmaking) and with Conqueror heal. So im considering her. Prioritize Hinden, absolutely the best cruiser in the game, only cruiser i fear to face in a BB. YY is great, all around great ship, if you cant torp it you kill it with guns! And please reconsider the Shimakaze, its a harder ship to get great games in then YY usually but when you do ......

1.800.000 credits in a loss!

So if you wanna go a full retard troll-secondary build on youre Alsace whats the best skills and modules? Is for instance 4 points cap.skills Manual secondarys better then IFHE? Anyone has some great experience with trying a build like this. Thing is i sold my Bismarck a while back since i have the Tirpitz which is pretty much the same ship but with torps. And im grinding the French line right now and i just want to have a ship to troll with when youre not that regular Die Hard mode. I recon i will stop at T9 Alsace because i really dislike the gun setup on the Republique. So whats youre recommendations?

Regarding the subject of Flambass video. I didnt see any thread that talked about this exact topic so i created this one because i wanted to get your opinion on this matter. I feel like Flambass hit the nail on the head in this video. I feel pretty much the same as he does. Im not a DD-main by any stretch, i play BBs and cruisers just as much. But like Flambass says they have everything to their disposal (HP, armour, range, heals, radars, hydros etc etc.) and thay can stay at range doing massive amounts of damage and kills without ever risking their ships and health. Then we have destroyers, smallest most fragile ships in the game that up to this point also could take massive damage from a BB AP shell, lazy BB drivers didnt even have to change ammo type to wreck a DD. With all the new US cruisers and with all the old cruisers you can run into a stealthy high tier US cruiser and suddenly be in their 30-40-50 second radar where all enemy team uses you as a pinata! This is starting to become a issue, specially since every lazy and scared BB and cruiser driver in the game demand you as a destroyer should push into the caps all match long while 5-6 US cruisers are lurking behind the islands. I dont want to write a wall of text here, i just want to get the ball rolling, but i want to know what you feel about this? Because i had to seriously change up my gameplay in a DD since the first split (Cleveland) happened, and its just gonna get worse. What are you gonna do as a DD in a 3 cap domination game with 3 Worshesters and 3-4 Des moines, Buffalos, Clevelands etc etc on the enemy team? Not to talk about the CVs, hydros, spotterplanes, DD hydros and radars etc etc...... No DD captain in their right mind will go for any caps!! So DDs will start playing the flanks, well out of US/Russian radar range trying to atleast do some damage. I see a lot of Asashio, Shima, Gearing in my future. Its gonna be fun to catch all the rage and reports from the team just because you dont want to suicide in to the caps?! So i actually would love to see WG take away all the domination games and just have standard battles if they are gonna continue down this line (this is almost a joke but sadly isnt), we all now what a huge misstake for gameplay that would have been. But seriously? Or maybe have 3 caps dom game only on Ocean map? So those 4-5-6 US cruisers actually had to take the same risk as the DDs to push in and radar them! But ..... naaah..... we dont want the poor cruisers with their defensive AA, hydros, radars, armour, heals etc. to take any risks do we?

But i dont really think you can call it that when the situation you are refereing to is finding an island near a cap! What does ALL domination games have? Islands right outside caps! So a Des Moines and a Worchester and all the other 30-40-55 sec radar cruisers can pretty much sit there, wait for the cap to turn and when it does just glide a quarter of the ship forward and get all 12 guns on target for almost a minute! And the DDs player didnt even had to know he was there. I can only speak for myself but i will probably wait to atleast half time mark before i try and push a cap, hopefully alot of the cruisers are dead by then, just wondering if it will be to late to secure the win?

But i dont think the velocity will help much at the ranges we are talking about (below 10k). And i think the high DPM 12 guns of the Worchester will become a little more then a nuisance, specially if they also change the armour setup on the DDs as they are planning. I think that ship will devestate any DD in 2-3 salvos. Believe me, i always have one eye on the minimap, up to a point where im starting to look like Marty Feldman. But there is much the minimap doesnt tell me, for instance how many unspotted US cruisers hide behind an island? Or will a still unspotted Worchester radar me because i turned the cap because his radar outrange his detection etc etc. And sure, team focus firering is a beautiful thing, but my clan has trouble to succeed with this 100% even in clan battle where all sit on coms with each other, to get this to work in randoms .......... well ...... See answer above + you dont always know how many ships are around a cap when you start to turn it. A 55 sec radar gets popped and suddenly a wild Conqueror lights up at 12k range when he just fired his 12 shells of devestating HE against your DD! And also a Minotaur and perhaps a Worchester that sat behind the island right outside the cap. It seems like most of the answers result in if you cant count all ships on enemy team at all times dont go for caps! Guess whos gonna be very popular with his team? I really think WG either should take away domination games or at least have the caps in open water area. I dont mind have adrenaline filled games, thats pretty much the reason i play DDs, but there is a difference between adrenaline and suicide.

Is it only me that doesnt feel that a 1 sec reload nerf is a big thing with AR and all the other good traits od the Hinden?

I really hope you are right, because with the upcoming patch/es i see a lot of new and old players starting to grind the new alternative US line and also the guys who is still grinding the Des Moines is gonna play the game, which of course will mean a whole lot of 30-40-55 sec duration radars, so i dont really see the hype going away any time soon. And is Grozovoi radar still a thing or were they gonna change it to heal instead? Anyways, its gonna be even more interesting times playing a DD in the future. Thank god i have my 20k torp spamming Asashio as a backup plan.....

Ok, yes, i agree that it may be to early to call yet. but im concerned about the way the game is heading. I feel like it was a conscious decision by WG to implement deep water torps and the Asashio because there is 100 ways for ordinary torps to get spotted in the game and soon there will be 100 ways for DDs to be pretty much permaspotted by radars if you even think about getting close to a cap. I just fear the day i happen to run into a Worchester in the open seas. Not even a super unicum DD player can avoid or survive that i feel.

Yeah, the problem is that the team will never understand this and you will catch a ton of crap and reports just because you dont wanna YOLO/suicide in. But then again Karma is good for absolutely nothing. Ok, i couldnt find any recent, i only found someone talking about some counterradar/interference mechanic.

Quick fix. Only Ocean map, all the time. Let see those radarcruiser push in to radar then! And extra bonus, it wont effect my Hinden!
