  1. Looks like some people are failing at that even in this thread.
  2. When you cannot do damage with AP, you use HE. When you cannot do damage with HE, you are aiming wrong. HE is the baseline for all ships, that can use it. As I sad, I know of NOBODY that does armor calculations during the battle. After a time you just know which shell type to use. With most ships it is extremly easy. I did not need to play 15k battles to understand how this games works. Please do not hold your inability to recognize an argument against me.
  3. If I had no argument, I would keep quite too

    WOWS bald FSK18, oder Kaufcontainerfrei ?

    Wenn es FSK 18 würde, müsste sich WG schon überlegen wie sie eine Alterskontrolle durchführen. Außerdem schränkt das die Vetriebswege ein. Ändern würde sich bei der Verschärfung der Regeln auf jeden Fall etwas. Die Frage ist halt ob die Verschärfung kommt und wie sie aussieht. Lobbygruppen sind leider sehr grosszügig und Politiker leicht beeinflussbar.
  5. It is ok to think that the decision between two options is complex, but I disagree. And I know of no player that does armor calculations during the game. You shoot stuff with AP and when it does not work, you shoot HE. After a couple of battles you select the right ammunition from the start. BB are hiding for years, as I said. I do not sugarcoat it. And when you get blapped by 45% WR CV, than that is your personal problem. I have absolutly no problem with such bad players.
  6. I did not claim the opposite. And we have a huge skill gap in the whole game...
  7. So you consider the playerbase to be competent? Interesting...
  8. That is how dispersion works. You cannot "imagine" your shells to the target.
  9. the game is not complex, when shooting at the enemy you just need to know if you should use HE or AP, that is all Dead Eye did not change the playerbase into cowards, they were cowards before, we have 5+ years worth of threads complaining about camping BB... if battle results were predertermined, skill would not matter, the fact is that we have 40% and 70% winrate players in the game and therefore players make the difference nobody is forced to spend 200€ on a Tech Tree ship, that is a players decision that is not how the B ships work when CV sink your DD most of the time, you are doing it wrong, there are only a few CV players who are really dangerous to DD, the rest has trouble hitting a BB, let alone a small agile DD you write a lot, but not much about the video you are responding too...
  10. Kurfuerst is not the top secondary BB for years. The maps in high Tier do not allow that. When you have trouble with a burning Kurfuerst or 20km range, you are playing her wrong. Kurfuerst has slightly better accuracy as Bourgogne, which is one of the top Tier X BB. Kurfuerst has the same accuracy as Conq, which is also not a bad pick. For secondaries to be workable at Tier X, you would need a different map design, which allows to get closer to the enemy without getting outflanked.

    Really need help on how to survive as cruiser...

    Use HE. That is what the shells are for. You can use cruiser AP vs BB at certain distances and certain angles when you aim at certain areas. You need experience for that. Try to stay out of that range from BB. And yes, angling helps a bit. It is and works differently well for different ships. The german cruisers have flat arcs at the beginning, which makes it harder to shoot over islands, but you can still use some to your advantage. This requires map knowledge, which also comes with experience. As a cruiser, hard cover or being hidden are the tactical tools that help you survive. In the open, you need distance, angling and being creative with your ship controls (speed, direction). They have and most of the time you will use HE, but see 1. You should note that BB are not your primary target. DD are your primary taget and then other cruisers. Cruisers can be quite strong dealing with other broadside cruisers and using AP. Only when your play your BB as a cruiser, but that is not the job of BB. As BB you have to tank for the team and create opportunities for attack or defense, that leaves BB exposed to flank attacks or enemy DD. The cruisers job is to protect the BB from flank attacks and DD and help friendly DD vs enemy DD and cruisers. Cruisers have multiple roles, which allows a variable playstyle. People who like that, play cruisers.

    Hello help me choose an AA ship please

    Yes. And jumping to Tier VIII after a 4 year long break is not the best idea.

    Hello help me choose an AA ship please

    Why do you want strong AA? It will not help you much anyway. Other stats are more important. But if that is all you want, US BB are the ships for you.

    unplayable captain skills for a returning player

    Bending over is a solution for the clueless. Have fun

    Wenn er nur halb so viel Energie in das Finden der Lösung investieren würde wie er investiert, um die Lösung seines Problems zu verhindern, hätte er wesentlich weniger Probleme.

    Sichtbar obwohl zu

    Da es weit mehr Spieler gibt, die Mechaniken durcheinander bringen oder erst gar nicht kennen, als Bugs, kann man sich ja denken was wahrscheinlicher ist.
  17. That is less chance and more skill. The leagues are much smaller than the old ranked and you can rank out faster.
  18. 20 hours can be a lot of battles....

    Hsienyang mit einem Torp zerstört

    Dann mach es naechstes mal. Deine Frage wurde doch schon durch das Spiel beantwortet.
  20. That the Free XP Economy is already broken. That is why the Free XP ships got more expensive. WG will not do it.

    WG hat Flamu als CC rausgeschmissen

    Sind auch von Maple. Und ich habe Deine Werte kurz überflogen. Die Werte sind identisch. Ab 2020 sind die Werte aber weiter gestiegen und Du hast Ende 2019 aufgehört sie zu erfassen. Eigene Grafik, basierend auf den Daten von maplesyrup. http://maplesyrup.sweet.coocan.jp/wows/ranking/index.html

    Die CV zahlen sind von 2% und niedriger auf etwa 4% und teilweise höher gestiegen.

    Going to miss deadeye accuracy...

    As we can only use weekly stats since the rework, it is hard to tell. The week after the rework it looked like this: Not really a significant change, but slightly increased.
