    [0.5.1] Wargaming actually fixed the US cruisers

    Look for the changes stating AP 203mm ricochet angles IIRC.

    German G7e torpedo - Range 7.5KM

    They'll prolly reduce the speed though, since the USN DDs got a different longer range/slower running setting in exchange for their range.

    [Not listed in patch notes] Speed nerf ?

    Another poor translation no doubt, but other ships now either have x.5 knots for just nice round number top speeds. Revised the acceleration and deceleration characteristics for all ships (changes within half a knot)

    Issue with the concept of armor penetration

    Wasn't there a spalling damaging thing also?
  5. byronicasian

    Tirpitz firing rate reduced by 1 shot per minute

    Didn't that "max" fire rate break the hoists? Not to mention, the Tirpitz is doing rather well at T8 atm, I don't think any new buffs are justified.

    German flag

    If y'all missed the SHS flag discussion, tl;dr is that some right wing groups use the Reichskriegflagge as a dog-whistle, and as such some municipalities/provinces have ordinances against its use in specific contexts. WG took a look at it and went f-that, and decided not to use the WW1 era flag (which is already in the game files btw).

    Accuracy Nerf on many ships.

    Could it be a display bug? Like from before, where the purchasable modules don't change the port screen display data?

    Ships of Paper and Steel

    Wasn't the Chinese WoT tree a jumbled line of captured IJA, US lend-lease, and USSR mod-cops, jumping from lights to mediums to heavies to mediums? Would imagine the ship tree to be similar, maybe throw in one or two papers. T1 Paper or ex-IJN gunboat (ex Hashidate) T2 1st Sino-JPN Armored Cruiser or something T3 Ning Hai/Ping Hai T4 Ex-IJN DD (stuff a nerfed Minekaze here) T5 Ex- RN CL (Chongqing ex. Arethusa class CL) T6 Ex VMF DD (Anshan class, ex Gveny , w. aritifical buffs?) T7 Ex IJN DD Fen Yang (ex Yoizuki of Akizuki Class) T8 Ex USN DD - ex Benson Class T9 Ex USN/IJN DD - stuff ex Fletchers here or Tan Yang (ex Yukikaze) T10 Ex USN DD - stuff anyone of the Allen Sumners here

    Upcoming tech trees: England, France, China, Italy ...

    I would imagine it would be something like the WoT Chinese tree (cobbled together, no distinct lines, full of loaners, and captured stuff). Hell, would be cheap too, WG can reuse assets from other trees. T1 Paper or ex-IJN gunboat (ex Hashidate) T2 1st Sino-JPN War Armored Cruiser or something T3 Ning Hai/Ping Hai T4 Ex-IJN DD (stuff a nerfed Minekaze here) T5 Ex- RN CL (Chongqing ex. Arethusa class CL) T6 Ex VMF DD (Anshan class, ex Gveny , w. aritifical buffs?)

    5.1 IJN DDs nerf

    Another poor translation no doubt, but other ships now either have x.5 knots for just nice round number top speeds. Revised the acceleration and deceleration characteristics for all ships (changes within half a knot)
  11. byronicasian

    Upcoming tech trees: England, France, China, Italy ...

    It'll be like the WoT tree. Some indiginous stuff (a paper gunboat), the Ning/Ping Hais , Chongqing, IJN-prize ships, USN/VMF DDs. You'll be jumping between the Cruiser and DD lines. Plus like what Exocet said,
  12. byronicasian

    French, Italian and ..... Chinese fleets

    Wasn't the Chinese branch a mish-mosh of Japanese/Lend Lease/Russian tanks in WoT? I presume they can cobble together some old gunboats, mid-tier CLs, and upper tier ex-IJN/USN DDs and call it a tree. Hell they can reuse other nation's gfx assets.

    German Destroyers

    Fairly certain that's outside of WG's preferred upper limit of time period.

    0.5.1 German changes

    The Adm Hipper got its profile lowered a bit. (stealth fix basically). http://forum.worldofwarships.com/index.php?/topic/56585-rejoice-fellow-german-cruiser-players/page__pid__1387053#entry1387053

    german crusiers v my Aoba - they are like paper

    Well, it took WG from OBT to 5.1 to give the Des Moines an ahisotircal armor buff. I would expect a similar pattern with German cruisers.

    Comically embarassing - Mikhail Kutuzov

    God, the incessant RN butthurt gets old. Your beloved RN was originally slated to be the 3rd fleet to be released. http://forum.worldofwarships.com/index.php?/topic/53840-adding-more-ships/page__st__40__pid__1324431#entry1324431 Switched to piecemeal RU/GER because of marketing/cost (there is scuttlebutt about difficulties WG has with accessing UK Naval records). Said difficulty would not surprise me given how hard of a time this guy had, getting manuals for his Merlin because all the official manuals still had 80 year old classified markings on them. Christ, if WG is bottlenecked by limited access to UK naval records, I don't think other ships should be delayed just for BNP e-peen.

    In game Khabarovsk is not a Cold War RU DD. It was a DD Leader project from the 40s. T7 Kiev is Project 48 (modified Tashkent) T9 Udaloy - Project 35 T0 Khabarovsk - Project 40

    who cares about these russian ships

    Your beloved RN was originally slated to be the 3rd fleet to be released. http://forum.worldofwarships.com/index.php?/topic/53840-adding-more-ships/page__st__40__pid__1324431#entry1324431 Switched to piecemeal RU/GER because of marketing/cost (there is scuttlebutt about difficulties WG has with accessing UK Naval records).

    Why are British always last in these types of games?

    Look mate, we already explained that the RN was originally slated to be the 3rd branch released but changed to piecemeal RU/GER because of marketing/cost (there is scuttlebutt about difficulties WG has with accessing UK Naval records), which would extend research/dev time on a single faction for little return. The reason seems quite possible as you Brits don't have a very good system of declassifying technical details of military systems even 80 years after the war. Like that time the guy who put a Merlin-derived tank engine in a car as a project (), but couldn't easily get a motor because all the official manuals still had 80 year old classified markings on them.

    http://forum.worldofwarships.com/index.php?/topic/53840-adding-more-ships/page__st__40__pid__1324431#entry1324431 RN was original planned 3rd, switched to piecemeal RU/GER due to marketing and research difficulty reasons (prolly some cost/benefit reasons also given how many catchalls he's using). Soon™.

    German Cruisers

    http://forum.worldofwarships.com/index.php?/topic/54595-the-real-0503-patchnotes/ The data mine (from gameparams.data file in the client, many thanks to I_am_Seeker) says that there was no HE shell nerf and AP damage was buffed on all the various 150mm guns the German CLs had. root.PGPA019_150MM_AP_PSGR_L3_7.alphaDamage changed in second object (was 2900.0, is 3700.0) root.PGPA020_150MM_AP_PSGR_L3_7_C25.alphaDamage changed in second object (was 3000.0, is 3900.0) The low tier CLs also root.PGPA014_105MM_AP_SAP_PZ_GR.alphaDamage changed in second object (was 1700.0, is 2300.0) And the CAs root.PGPA025_210MM_AP_PSGR_L3_1.alphaDamage changed in second object (was 4500.0, is 5500.0)root.PGPA023_203MM_AP_PZ_SPR_GGR_L4_4.alphaDamage changed in second object (was 4800.0, is 5900.0) Hindenberg IIRC also received a rather significant ROF buff from 5-6 rpm.

    Mogami hit with a new nerf?

    Lol, I knew I should've bought the Gremlin instead of the Yubari.

    German Cruiser Feedback

    Dresden was fun, free xp'd past Kolberg, the Karlsruhe is pretty shite. If my experience in the Konigsberg during the trials were any indiciation, the AP damage buff the German CL/CA line got will make it a fun clubber.

    Actually, it hit T6 also. I missed the "Ognevoy" section on my first pass of the post.

    http://forum.worldofwarships.com/index.php?/topic/54595-the-real-0503-patchnotes/ The data mine says no change to Mogami.
