I mean ..... 100% of all WOW-videos on YouTube is "cherry picked" videos, including mine! That said it seems to show quite consistent a shot gun monster. Will probably trade in my GK which I never even played before Special status for a chance to explore a potential new monster T8 Premium. (always loved my Asashio)

Just like most Subs and CVs to be fair.

Hold on just one moment........ Isn't this that totally broken/OP/unbalanced King of Shot-gunning submarine?! A submarine with barely any dispersion on its torps and massive damage?

So, I had problem with the Armory for a couple of patches where whenever I try and click on anything in the Armory, I get kicked out to some login screen where I cant even login btw...... But since last update I cant even see my current currency on the top of the screen (Dabloons, Coal, Steel, special events etc etc). Is this just me?! Im logged in in game during both these events. For some reason if I login the Armory outside the game via the webbrowser I don't have any issues collecting daily rewards and seeing my currency's?!

So the damage of about 4000 HP per mine is actually, correct?! Daaamn

I haven't read the stats or the release notes but is it normal for ONE mine out of a 200-ish mine field do 4000 damage?! Imagine a bulky cruiser or a BB going thru smashing into a crap ton of those. Or did I just "get lucky"?

CV rework and Subs are considered a success so what do you think?

Its just another ROFL moment. Unfortunately, there are so many gullible players that will fall for it that WG will say it was a success. Only ships worth getting on that list is US Hybrid Kearsarge (shocker....) and OP/Unbalanced CV Malta (also a huge shocker...), rest is just WG trying to fool some players into spending cash/doubloons on their really sad, powercrept, not fitting the Meta any more ships that probably never get sold in the armory or Premium shop. So they try and dust of and polish some old turds and try to get us to spend a little for the trade. This could have been a huge success if WG actually added some strong and fun ships to the list, like ships from the "forbidden list", then they could have made huge profit. Flambass said something in one of his latest videos that baffled him, and it also baffled me. Since WG is only in it for the money and haven't cared for the game or balance in years, why not just rent out Press accounts for limited time for a pretty sum of money? Lets say for 15 Euros for a 24 hrs period you have access to a press account with every ship in the game available for you. You are finally able to try out ships that you will never EVER get access to otherwise. Ships like Benham, Småland etc or steel or RB ships like Bourgogne, Vampire 2 etc etc, so all ships in the game. After 24 hrs it goes away and you have to pay again to be able to access. Its such an easy fool proof way for WG to make a ton of money, but they havent thought about it?! And for those of you that think this would ruin the game, have you played the game lately? At least then some of us could get SOME enjoyment out of this game again.

Dont think we had a new one in ages but has there been a public announcement that they have given up on them completely?! I think it was very fun to have something to grind for that isn't any kind of BS like the Dry dock or the Battle Pass. Sure, WG couldn't fool as much players into throwing money at them as they can in these two but at least they had many players playing their game. And some offered some great rewards like ships and legendary captains. Any words on this? Or was this to fun for the community?

Not really, its just what that ship does in semi-competent hands.

Yeah BOI! Either get 2 200 BASE XP by doing nothing and scoring ZERO damage ..... or.... Get 3 000 BASE XP with Eeezz with 49 K damage done! Why play stooopid surface ship ever? When you can sit and grief on the bottom all day and get nr.1 spot for free?!

AND a Funnybutton, which means you pretty much kill of any DD that encounters you and you dev strike any cruiser showing broadside to you. Only Supership i made a profit with on a regular basis.

Annapolis is the most OP/Broken Supership in the game right now .... just saying. Perhaps you not interested in T11. Annapolis can do everything that Conde can but with better maneuverability. It can also kill of every enemy DD which secures the win with its long duration almost stealth radar and Funny button. In many games I killed of 2 or 3 of the enemy DDs. And it can melt BBs from 19 km. And after getting Confederate with Halsey your 4 turret Des Moines turns into a Minigun from Hell.

The Meta is: Getting spam pinged by subs that can curve torps around corners ......... that you will never see and will never shoot at More CVs and Super CVs that can destroy you while taking zero risk. ......... that you will never see and will never shoot at HE spam ......... from ships 20 km away More and more overmatch Soon Mine fields everywhere ......... from ships that you will never see and will never shoot at Questions? So basically play a long-range ship and snipe from base without moving ever. In base you will be the last to be targeted by Subs, CVs, DD torps and Mine fields Sounds fun eeh? And Nations aint strong ... subs and CVs are strong, because you wont see them.

I got a crap-ton of Premiums that are bad/nerfed/I never play, but the problem with trading those is that then I probably will get those back whenever in a thousand years I will get a ship in a crate in the future, which means ZERO.ZERO chance of me ever getting Benham. Benham is probably the only ship that would make me interested but im guessing these "SPECIAL SPECIAL" ships is not available in this as well. I could maybe be interested in some great RB or Steele ships, but guessing those are of the table as well. All the rest of the good premiums and special ships I already have.

So you mean he just broke the game code and got gode mode?! Jingles uploaded a game of a Mainz killing entire enemy team ín raned today and that ship isn't even broken as subs are. Upload the game.

I think you know this is just wishful thinking ..... like actually working AA. 95 % of the time it will be you and me banging our heads against the screen yelling bad words against WG.

You probably totally right. That said my money is still on Conq, dont know any tanky BB that breaks crap, like gun turrets and torp turrets like Conq HE.

Maybe not the best but Conqueror usually breaks a lot of crap on all types of classes of ships in a single volley with its HE, so maybe 2-3 games in Co-op with that? A single volley at a German BB can usually break tons of AA and secondary mounts. Even at small DDs you usually break 3-4 things with some hits.

I totally get your point, but heres a point to WG, if your shitty servers can't handle the stress of a new BS mechanic ...... maybe not implement the new BS mechanic?! (just a thought) Would have been really crap if you in a team-oriented game with divisions said divisions and teammates could actually .... work as a team and help each other out in situations like that This is so stupid by WG, "How to make a stale, campy, non-fun game even more so 2023". In a previous post I suggested that WG should use a "gas cloud" like in PUB G to make sure all Hooman players actually try and play the objective instead of trying to leave the map each game, but all new things they implement makes sure to do the exact opposite of that, Its like they starting the gas cloud in the middle and get it to expand outwards to make sure that NO ONE actually brawls, go for objektives etc. Why would anyone want to try and push and "make a play" with all new sheiit that gets introduced. Why not all 3? Lets introduce 3 CVs per side in WOW 2023. 1 regular CV or Super CV, 1 support CV that drops mines on everything and last 1 new CV that can EMP blast a big area and make all ships dead in the water and then say "Just Dodge" to the playerbase.... Why not just re-name the game World of CVs and make all play God tier CVs and rest of the classes in both teams are just bots. This could have been a ray of sunshine except for the fact that 97% of all CV players just sit there stationary all game. So a minefield would just sit there as well all around the stationary CV and never bother it. Aaaand im guessing WG already are working on something that will make any mine attacks on their precious CV class mute. Probably some fully automated anti mine ASW that covers 8 grid squares on the map.

Haven't you heard? You only get ONE ship ever in this game so if you get sunk its game over for you! Thats why you need to always head away from battle and save your HP to the next game. No, understanding basic mechanics and purpose of game modes isn't this player base strong suit unfortunately. You see the same behavior in all game modes that has any type of purpose, like Ranked, Asymmetric, Arms Race, Brawl ... you name it and there will be 40 % of your team trying to sail thru the border of the map into another match (where ship don't shoot at you). We all seen the crutches WG gives to CV players, auto pilot, auto damage con, auto headshot ASW etc etc. They need to do something to teach the rest of the classes to play as well. All game modes I mentioned before needs to have the same gas cloud as PUB G has, that shrinks all along the game until the last remaining ships are all in the middle circle and battle it out in a brawl otherwise they die a sad death and gets like 200% repair costs or something. Implement this and suddenly you will see all ships moving like a team (in a team game) and actually push the objective.

I dont even know what to say any more ....... So Airplane dropped ASW sucks to clear mines apparently, ship dropped is way better so finally something good for HEAVY cruisers Venezia and Hindenburg that for some reason gets ship dropped ..... Hydro doesn't spot mines for some reason ..... ?! Anyone else thinks this is a bit weird? Anyone?! You cant see the mines a teammate that is 4 km away from you sees ....?! So forget about maybe be able to help a division mate to get out of a field, you wont see the field unless your in it.... Also BIG BUFF to already BS class Submarines (just by chance....) .... now everyone will be busy throwing their BS ASW against BS minefields so no more trying to hit BS Subs with BS ASWs, so BS Subs can just throw BS pings at you with impunity. You guys that still play this game ....... Enjoy!

Haven't played it but looking at videos and stats I get the feeling WG wants the part of the community that missed out on the BS summer holiday event that gave some the Benham to chase this ship like maniacs because its in their mind a similar ship .... but its not. Sure its surface conceal is good but surface conceal is not what it used to be before WG flooded the game with subs, more CVs, US hybrids and a radar on each and every ship. Suddenly a torp spammer like Jaeger with shitty HP and no smoke to help out with constant plane spotting and only 12 km torps with no such dev strike ability as Benham, seems a bit lack luster. But if I can get it for free just by playing my normal amount then I take it, but I wont grind for it.

Played a couple of games in Venezia the last couple of days, and even tho it a very fun and strong cruiser I was suddenly faced by an enemy Balau .... which ment I had to just run away and switch flank mid game since Venezia, being a heavy cruiser for some reason got BS ship launched ASW just like Hindenburg (good reasoning there WedGie) and its just pure suicide to try and do something with that cosmetic armament. Was it fun to sail across the map in the middle of the game to try and fight on the other side? Not really, but much better than being pinged and torped to death by something you cant counter. Air based ASW isn't better then the so called AA on most ships so there's really no reason for WedGie to not give them to every ship. Its usually like seeing a kitten playing "Whack a Mole".

This! WG created this mess with YOLO-ing bots, which means any player with half a brain will finish all: "set fires on enemy" (because bots ALWAYS repair one fire so you can set 4 additional ones on each ship, hence get mission done in 2-3 games) "torp hits on enemy", just spam Kleber and get it done in 2-3 games "kill X amount of enemys", just spam Kleber and get it done in 4-5 games (I usually get about 3 kills in every Kleber game and in about 6-7 min, then just to "Battle on" All these also stack together since you will get a lot of them in every game (fires, torp hits and kills), playing Kleber. All these are 100 times faster to just spam in Co-Op than trying to get them in Randoms. Dont blame the players, its WGs game design.
