Ok. It was a question only.

I can speak for shimakaze right now. I played fubuki and kagero long ago. Shima has 5,9 km detection range. 9,6 km torpedos are just enough to attack any ship. 8 km ones i didnt try yet because i need to reserarch them first and i dont want to spend money for it now. And i dont remember the speed of fubuki. Kagero is slow yes. But its still faster than any bb or ca at its tier. Shima is only slower than khabarovsk.

Maybe but ther still do GOOD. So do good cv players. They were performing much better in beta. Now, they still can perform very good but worse then before.

Positioning your ship is also a kind of skill. Picking targets wise, attacking at the right moment. Anyways, some can do damage and get good results. Try to learn from that people.

According to stats which were shared at page 6, shimakaze is still most played tier 10 ship on eu server. There are still tomatoes who use long range torpedos by staying at 12-15 km.

I get that situation all the time so what is your point? Do you want CAs and BBs not to have that skill?

It requires some skill. That stats you shared shows that, it works like it should. Tomatoes cant get good results anymore with IJP DDs.

thats true thou "a single torpedo would have a far greater chance of sinking your battleship." you also said that one. there is no need to discuss the realism and its also nonsence to discuss it. its a game and it wont be any more realistic.

team was useless thou.

well its not like that yet. planes are still scarry. but i cant speak for the next patch already. we will see. i hope cvs dont disappear thou. but again aa buff was unnecessary. btw, look at 7:35 in your video. yoour friendly essex attacks to enemy yamato and actually his drop was not that good. he misses 6 torpedos and look at the yamatos hp. better drop would kill him right there.

well i watched the video and you didnt do anything extra that i didnt know. so it was the cv players difference or it was just the yamato things with huge repair. because i remember getting nuked with amagi and izumo. (i have even one particular situation with my izumo) dont get me wrong thou im not whining about cvs atm. i think an aa buff is not need. i just wanted to mention how powerfull they were before the huge nerf.

mate lets talk the truth. i believe i knew how to dodge torpedos but i remeber being nuked by a cv many times with my amagi or izumo. beforethe huge cv nerf, any cv was able to nuke any ship they decide. exp, american cvs with many torpedo bombers.

worst situation for bbs is the storm. no target at all. and you can be suprised by an ijp ca, who can kill you with torpedos quite easy.

i agree with troublemaker. its so anoyying sometimes. exp. for BBs.

try to be quick when you attack to targets with strong AA. you should be able to attack to north carolina. iowa is harsh for a tier 7 CV thou.

an other [edited] who needs a red cross to be able to hit something. use your [edited]brain and try to learn how to aim instead of begging for aim assist on forums.

which ships are those? tell me. because i dont know any ship who cant be touched by planes. maybe des moines and hindenburg (its a big maybe). what else? you mean iowa and montana? you cant mean them because i can hit them with tier 8 carrier. so if tier 8 cv can hit them, tier 9-10 cv can give them a punch in the face.

if you look at the stats, shima is sstill most played DD. and they are all not good players. there are still people who use 20 km torps and hitting nothing. there are still people who are not aware of shimakazes guns. after the 5.5 i saw many shimakazes at the top of their teams with great performances. good DD players are still capable to get good results with it.

you were complaining about getting killed by BBs with one shoot and now you are saying "BBs are useless". whats your point?

Did anyone tell you that you gain much more credits if you invest more for a ship? When i was non-premium user, i was trying to gain credits with tier5-6 and buy high tier ships. You can try the same. It works.

That yamato player you spoke was an idiot then. Economy is fine. Play good=make profit even you die with yamato, play bad=lose credits.

they are average imo. not good enough...

you are doing the same. if there was realism in thatgame, 2 yamato shells would divide your dd into 2 pieces. but its a game so dont seek for realism.

if they dont have 5th captain skill yet in their top tier DDs, there is something wrong...

i would define myself as an improving average player with average stats. edit: i should add that i rage when i see [edited]doing unbelievable things.
