This. Thing is the enemy does the same. Even sheep bunch up so they can all die to the same lightning, so thats no skill they had to actively learn. I went into several enemy ships, threw my ship away, traded a ok healthy T7 BB for a full hpT9 BBs - allowed us to win that way. You cant do that in cruiser because you lack everything from armor to concealment to weapons to speed, to manoeuvrability to do that. Go figure, it the general problem with cruiser just amplified and forced into a zone, where the BB shell flight times are 1/2 of you ruddershift at best, and his dispersion doesnt matter at all. With a german BB now its even debatable if a cruiser is a valid target for the main battery at all. Lets say its damaged from the earlier game -> lol 2ndaries + fire will deal with it.

The heresy is now over 9000! Or something more waifu-ish: Well Id openly embrace chaos if it came with a free Dashie. Well we are certainly beating all those lame4ss "*bump*-threads" - thats for sure. Well for the rest ......... I solely blame everything, whatever it is, on AO - that works usually best. See all my detonations are already there. *smirk-fatality*

You can do nothing. Sure depending on circumstance you can go cap, lay a torp ambush, find a lonely cruiser or anything - but most of the time a BB will shoot you over a Tirpitz even launching Torps form 2 km into his side. Why? Because he can delete your shitty cruiser as it pleases him - and by now they know that. You cant even hope to kill a 3k hp Tirpitz before he deletes you ....... Cyclone is just another buff-mode for a class that doesnt need it at all. After everything you can just hope to make that 1 salvo into 3 - max. If your team isnt potato that BB, that certainly didnt need the buff, will get the kill on you, and your BB may get some free damage on the enemy BB. You get 500 creds and 1 pts of base xp out of that - max. Which only really helps if you are coming from-completely THE OTHER side as BB nowadays have better turret rotation than cruisers (ofc! why woulnt they) and 1 salvos reload time is usually enough for them to get their guns 180 ° turned around - go figure. The only thing that really helps: Having a cruiser that is notorious for being even shittier than you in front. German CLs will do, a Shores is also a good target. Next thing is a DD (because thats an actual threat) - but those cant get to close anyway thanks to reg.-pens along their lengths and crazy 2ndaries if its a german BB. (And lets face it, it usually is. P2W-itz really need that buff so I can both torp-rush shít, shoot crap, AND cover its entire cyclon-bubble with 2ndaries. He really outplayed you with that open-wallet-move, so you should just accept your defeat like a good silver peasant should do anyway). Another secret hack is that BB players are more than ever complete idiots. Sure that doesnt involve you outplaying him (also you shouldnt anyway - he might complain on the forums and WG buffs BBs even further), but you would be amazed what stupid bs you get to see from time to time. Even the ones firing nothing but HE havent died out yet, although most of the die-hard-fúcktards have learnt by now (and thats telling a lot about how shitty cruisers truly are!) that loading the "skill" and aiming in the general direction of a cruiser will reliably let that black icon popping up, that "Jingles keeps talking about ..... so thats good, right?" At this point I think the most promising tactic would be to get a transportation-ticket to a WG headquarters, Paris, Cyprus, Saint Petersburg and take a dumps on a variation of desks after visits to all an All-you-can-eat. You might have to repeat the process a few times, but if a population as stupid as our BB players can learn how shitty a cruiser is and what magic AP does to them, then I think even WG will get the message at some point. Question is: Faster or slower than the BB-population, because: You got to keep in mind: Those are the "brilliant minds" that thought "Tears of the Desert" and "Epicenter" is a good combination - just as one of many examples.

I still blame WG for this as they started this against competent advice from everyone with at least a little perspective. I dont blame the roaches for going where the sugar is openly laying around for them. Id torch all those roaches if I could, or I would have them dying horribly in a roach motel ofc, but I wouldnt blame them. The bigger question is: Where do we get a roach motel big enough for those players ..... and for WG, well: Yep definitely a two system-agent is needed: Can1: Reverts anything p2w and everything screwed up by WG. Can2: Prevents WG from further screwed up and putting more p2w into the game. "Game is roaming with p2w" "..... and more p2w is on its way". Yeah well that, or WG filing for bankruptcy would also help.

Ah that reminds me so much of the old Onion-voi. Turrets are overrated anyway, eh? I actually took the wrong screen here .... buts it 4 pts on the first try WITH a division. We lost a power plant or something unluckily to a Gneisenau. But without to much pressure I got to see the friendly CV arriving, as well as an Izumo charging us. Now I at least know what people are talking about. Still [edited]impossible with the usual potato fest you get with random MM. Next game is rather unremarkable, except that we got to answer the old question: What happens if a ship with arcs that cant hit, fights a ships that cant turn and dodge - at all? (Just to be clear: A properly played DM would have handed my [edited]to me ......) Last one: Well WG quality of patching is here again. I can reliably crash my game just by doing some stuff in the harbour like assigning captains, flags etc ...... I suspect this is why taking screenshots didnt work in this case: Can only show it this way : Screen doesnt tell it all, as it was the sweetest of all the Krakens: Final kill on the enemy CV. Sheer willpower forced the AP shells into his citadel before OUR CV could steal the kill. Rest of the games mostly sucked. I had a 34k Chaplin game and I can say I worked my butt of for that. Ie ofc nearly 80 shellhits and 15k k damage on a Amagi (yep thats WITH the firedmg and IFHE) didnt help either. HE OP and Fire OP, plz nerf. Or games like this; you think MM hands you one, but in reality its a turd. Top tier cruiser afk, and CV bot. Isnt that great? Not afk, bot! Went to the closest border, launched planes (achieved nothing with them ofc), had even dive bombers still circling at the end (and the did that for I think 10 minutes straight), but the bot when defunct long before that. Dont worry chaps, one day he will be ruining games in a T10 CV.

A big day in Scrub-History ....... was a few days ago I suppose: Lets: You know, with my joining true greatness ......... of the number of co-op battles/player was achieved. Then more and more newbs joined; without a single T10 co-op game, can you believe that? - and the number dwindled down. Now its back to part of its former glory! I bet our Overlords are pleased with how healthy the Scrub-pve-part is: (To prospective recruits: Yes some, most actually, are pvp exclusive players. )

As you know WG is on a 100 % international pissing me off tour for months now. As part of that show they have acquired the unexplainable talent to release patches only when I have to work a lot towards the WE. Thu -> Morning -> no patch -> evening -> Immediately went to bed. Fr -> Came home, slept a few hrs ( go figure ), lost those 5 games, went to bed again, slept till now. And tbf it not even so much about the rewards. -> Ranked has immoral rewards, yet I simply cant play the parasites paradise. Or take Bismarck mission -> over 60 k noobs failed their way towards it, I failed with being stuck halfway ..... Together with the rest of WG mission design (CotE, weekly, Mikasa, whatever) I am used and more than happy to get nothing at all and still tell them know where to stuff it on the ones I could/can do. So I was actually hoping to get a game mode here that I could play, ie late at night, without fellow Scrubs because they are none. What I see (random ofc) is a uncarryable mess, of rewards not even 1/4 of co-op (!!!!!, which is 1/4 of random anyway!). On the other side if you do happen to win, parasites again cash in. We had already players dying to the first T 2-3 ships (in a T6!), those would still get 600 xp on a win thx to non linear parasite-rewards; so they will queue in enough games to get exactly that. Parasite account taken into account, its easy to make decent coin from just a few T6 ships.

Kaba in dry-dock for re-assembly? And so it begins: I know what I did, I know what most of the rest of the team did ...... lets just say thanks to non-linear rewards, the kills are probably more representative. Also: 1. Amazing, WG invented a game-mode that even gives LESS rewards (!!!) than co-op if your team throws it away; its been a while since I lost money on a T6 co-op (!!!) ........... 2. Amazing, the mode is totally new, yet our (full hp, what else?) Murmansk was trying already to get into the Docks to camp harder instead of taking his share of shells fired at him, take the pressure of his teammates and keep their guns in the game. We lost so hard ....... it wasnt even close. So ......... another mode that cant be played without a division. I hope it doesnt end like ranked and I am not able to play it at all ......... €: Amazing, if your team doesnt consists of complete mouth breathers its actually doable. (2nd try: ) I mean dont get me wrong, we got a mighty 2 out 5 stars in this one ......... but with a random bunch of people and this early in a new game mode I dont expect more than just to try to win as best of possible. Indeed, if you compare it to the slaughter of the battle before that ...... Just like in PVP: All games so far ......... and I do see a pattern here. I havent figured out this game mode at all - and I dont need to! What do you mean? I never will get to see the dreaded Izumo - the potatoes have lost the game long before that! Hard setting? Just play it without a division, thats already hard-mode! What I did figure out so far: 1. If you are a ok player, you get 1 ok player on the team always. 2. Usually there is a second ok guy, and maybe even a 3rd ok-ish - but thats not guaranteed. 3. Rest is varying degrees of "should uninstall" up to "should be paying Oxygen-Squandering-Fee" as you could do so much more useful things with said Oxygen: Ie lighting farts would already qualify as "more useful". 4. You cant carry this alone - or I havent found the carry ship yet as I mostly focus on cruiser now. 5. With only 1-3 players on your side, this is not winnable.

Have we ever been about anything else? I can even "bribe" AO now to Pony again, because his favourite series is back: Should be good, as I have absolutely no clue wth is going on; but the part with all the blah blah blah - while the subtitles way just "ouch", is still amusing in its own way. I can help you there with the gif; BB pov ofc: Yeah and its getting freaking hot here again too - with no perspective of redemption ........ To the fresh meat: Ah dont worry we are more of a random bunch anyway. After all, whats the worst that could happen? Stay away from AO tough - he is way to "volatile" lately in his Kaba ( ).

Your Princess awaits you : ofc only for: or else: done for today ....... maybe. (probably, tired and .....

Well I had a good day at work (although my eyes hurt somewhat and I have some problems seeing - hope I didnt accidentally get/rub crap into them ... or it may be more then "somewhat" soon .....) and am in a good mood (because I also had 0 noob-contact today so far) so lets say its Blogis big day: Some pseudo-waifu with ..... "similar cloths-coverage" (and still more cute than just (or at all) nsfw , imho).

Yesterday I played the Charlie Chaplin stock (well I could only free xp range) and ........ omg what an atrocious pos. Seriously I know my NC (!!!) can outmanoeuvre this thing any time. Thing is: You are already fragile as hell, so you have to do the "diagonal dodge" (as I call it) with it, compared to a cruiser that actually turns less like a continental plate and more like a dead whale. If you cant even do that, you have to play so passive, you are guaranteed to be utterly useless. (The only good moment was, when I was with my fellow Scrub lup3s and I counter-batteried a smoked up fletcher _without radar_ (A-hull again ......). He moved around a lot in the smoke and it wasnt easy, but he was dead before I died, so: ) Anyway two horrible games (defeats) with camo and flag gave me enough xp to pay the rest in free xp. Means I also got radar now. And lo and behold, it took exactly 0 days for the first haccusastion to happen; and its not some newbie in his first T 6 ....... or a Bismarck player for that matter. The playerbase of this game is real damn amazing - in all the wrong ways. So I am contesting against 2 DDs, a british CL and 3 BBs - easy, because I am invincible-Cruiser. HMS Invincible 1907 BattleCruiser ofc. You cant believe the cruiser-hate nowadays ...... they are so immeasurable crap that everybody fights over a piece of you. Ofc I have help - anyone attacking me is getting flanking shots (which is part of the plan after all), and our CVs is striking too - although there really not much to strike elsewhere. Timing was perfect, I went medieval on his noob-4ss the moment the Neptune was occupied - enjoy the on-screen-h4x. ofc: Much hax, so Modpack, little skill. Honestly: At Tier fúcking 10 and after so long after the radarintroduction? I am used to being late to any party since I dont do p2w - just like now: Radar, dunno how to use it correctly - and how would I know? Its my first radar ship after all! But I still knew its there and what is does. This guy? How? Just how with a freaking T 10 DD! (and hundreds of high tier DD games) Next time you have oxygen thieves in DDs on your side think of this lvl of uneducated ignorance and stupidity ...... it explains a lot. Anyway the result screen: Dmg is not stellar but I also killed that Tashkent I battered off earlier. Also ofc failing the Bismarck-Campaign - well thats a shocker! I think I didnt complete anything in this year yet.

And I even got my first haccusation on day 1 of playing the Chaplin with the radar enabled via B-Hull because I radared and raped a Gearing (!!!). Much hax, so Modpack, little skill. Random mood here, so have some of the 2 under-represented characters discovering our tasty windows: Strictly speaking this is not even Pony, or funny, or even that hilarious ......... still I quite like it: Them feelz. Just like cruiser when you have to realise you have to solo that BB in order to even have a chance to win. (And thx to lup3s taking of a good quarter of his hp and forcing his damage con I recently solod a Scharnhorst in a freaking Shores!) I recently just tried for shitz and giggles "Novasonic - For Adun" in YT ...... and what do you know: That crappy song from old SC times is still there. Also: At least in a cruiser you are always playing with: "My life for Aiur"- enabled.

Just bought and equipped the Charlie Chaplin - first radar cruiser ...... well when I get the B-hull ofc. Guess Leander equipment and T6 Jojo will have to wait ........ (Really crappy AA on Chaplin tough, had forgotten thats its more than just 2x2 37 mm ) Certainly no other T10 besides my Banjo anytime soon. (I cant even do WGs missions that would earn some coin ......)

Take a look at my stats, I play cruiser as a main and an even greater problem than any number of BBs or DDs is if a CV is present that can rape and pillage at leisure. Ofc your can CV out-damage-whoring the enemy and DD spotting/killing helps a lot, but I prefer balanced games over MM lottery. Cruisers had not even a AA role during the total CV-fukaroo that was open-beta as they cant counter them - at all - and nothing has changed in that regard. Want to know why cruisers usually dont get targeted immediately by a good CV? Because he knows that DDs win games, and wounded/bad positioned BBs are important too; oh and ofc the enemy CV as thats actual opposition. Congrats Cruiser are "protected by not being destruction worthy" enough until they pose a thread to caps, DDs or its cleanup time anyway. Also everyone knows that of the 2-3 cruisers present, most of them are dead within minutes anyway. Why waste a strike on them anyway when there is more important stuff to kill? So take a guess what happens when when you up the rape-quota for CV? hmmm? We already have the CV apologists that dont see a problem when 1/4-1/3 of the team comes together (inkl. useless cruiser) and the CV still gets damage in; only to strike elsewhere later thanks to reserves an sitting behind even the campiest of BBs. So before you up the rape-quota against BBs, you first gotta make cruiser actually counter CVs hard, because lets not forget: The CV chooses to attack where a cruiser is - and that cruiser is sooner or later randomly removed for doing nothing wrong at all. On the other side a cruiser cant magically beam himself next to a CV. (And even that wouldnt guarantee a cruiser win ) If I get to pick between ending once and for all the CV rampage or the catering to the BBabies, I chose the first one any time - again totally from the perspective of a cruiser main for the game as it is now. ....... and I am so god dam fed up with WG catering to horde of brain-dead wallet-warriors and noobs that I basically switched to (shitty silver) cruisers exclusively to not add to the plague - that should tell you something. btw: Remember that A1 spawn on Land of fire? How is ie a Colorado supposed to "reach his fleet", before a CVs plane come for rape and pillage? Are you willing to guarantee with MM that there are at least 1 cruiser WITH defensive fire per 2 ships present?

Its amazing how it goes every time: cruiser are shi7 -> buff cvs. Cant wait for: DDs are crap, buff CVs! Buff the god forsaken cruisers! Take a wild guess who has shitty AA, weak deck armor, huge citadels, is a huge target that is also not very manoeuvrable, has no heal and not a lot HP to begin with. Congratz we have a winner: Its the shitty cruisers! - and WG already made DB suffer less from defensive fire, if you happen to even pack it. AP bombs on CVs are like radar on BBs, nothing else. How about those CVs drop unarmed target buoys instead so the cruisers get something they can actually fight .....

At least division up with me when you do that. It might hurt the WR in the long run, but its entertaining as all hell. €: If its any consolation: Yet another damn co-op detonation - and not even 10 lousy flags.

Impressive. I mean I dont want to belittle your feats, but I think thats quite something. We probably could only do that if we detonated on the first shell ........ Anyway, so co-op, much win : Yep, definitely "GORLARSO!" (Sound like an laxative agent but .......) Yep that Chester was toast a few seconds later. Only thing missing would be accusation of a real pvp match *sigh* cant have it all. H4x! No detonation!

Comrade, this is what happen when Russian constructor/WG designer goes cold turkey off the vodka. You have to have to have them on a bottle/hour at least - its gud for game.

When it comes to little demon girls (or whatever this is ;)) I prefer my ol': Hard to decide which one to put the focus on, the beginning or this last few seconds. Anyway ... got a sudden craving for SC 2 now . Or should I just stay with WoWs and try the good old: "I am the cruiser, vengeance shall be mine! I am going to find the CV and make him pay!" (The bigger question is, how many of you got intrigued enough to watch the whole thing? )

A Russian premium battleship. Amazing. The information density about whats BS about the whole matter is so dense that you can only spare to take the "A" away without destroying crucial information. Realistic speaking only WG themselves is more dense (well and Sagittarius A, maybe).

Doesnt look like much, but oh boy. We had fúcking Sky-cancer on our team (not talking about the enemy CV!) that left me to die when all I needed was a spot to deter and deny them a cap. So with ássface McFucktard working for the enemy I still managed to tie up 3 top tier BBs and didnt die ........ but I couldnt deny them the cap or do much damage. Ofc we also had another (other player) Sky-Cancer 2 times in a row on our team and accordingly lost 2 times without a chance .......... . Extremely hard division carry - 2 guys, 8 Kills, Confederate, High calibre, Kraken. Disappointed tough: Seems like I have to step up my game to deserve more reports. Or maybe more PONY in the chat? Maybe it was to late, and they were all out of reports ........ yeah, lets stick with that to save face. And another Confederate, High Caliber, Kraken ....... and its a loss. Nearly ~2500 base XP (would have been on a win ofc) in a Budyoni with a retraining 9 pts captain without CE or IFHE. Tbh I am also blaming myself. I took a torp because I felt I needed to remove a BB as fast as possible. Could have used that health later on. Then again if a DD doesnt want to get spotted and has the points advantage, you can do nothing about it anyway. Because cruiser counter DDs right? Must be the reason why 1 random torp already cripples one. Also a lot of Sky-Cancer around so I had DF loaded (didnt get to use it ofc). Seriously the only people worse than those playing the game, are those that are developing it .......... With games and teams like that, I would be more than happy to play in a 3rd faction of my own. _______________ Btw, and this may sound like an odd question: What is the base detection range of the New Orleans diplayed to you without a captain, without camo, without the T8 module (10 %) but with the B-Hull? Preferably if you also dont own it and just look at it from the tech-tree with the B-Hull selected?

Not throwing the PC on the floor .......... I shouldnt give a [edited], but I just had to check: Jep thats dark purple (who came up with that anyway?) on barely above 50 % WR in the class conceived by WG to be the shittest around ....... lets begin: Co-op game to kick things off ....... (dont have always all the screens that would be interesting ..... dunno why) now for the PvP: Unsalvageable - basicly complete WG-Allstars team on our side ..... being bottom also doesnt help ...... oh, and this fúcking map ...... Random confederate - and division-carry. Random Confederate + High Caliber + divison carry - Kraken denied. This game in general: Honestly I think if you are not dead and you did less than 30 k damage in a Zao by the end of the game - you need to uninstall. In this case I call on mitigating circumstance ...... to be completely honest, I would have had a lot to say if I were in the enemy team ...... Bottom line: Battles with or against crapteams are not fun or good for anybody. There is this picture limitation - so I will split

And to be fair AO left something out entirely: He was slugging in out with another Kaba - in a sense that the other DD got his 4ss handed to him until RNG stepped in and just decided, nope - the other one catched all those shells in his basket so he deserves the win and to detonate somebody. Yeah an thankfully thoughts transmitted over an open TS-chan cant kill, or else we would have gotten force choked by AO and died laughing our 4sses of.

AO didnt mention what happened in TS. I laughed so hard I couldlnt aim anymore - still doesnt rebuke the issue at hand ........
