...are you sure you want to say that? the ebil gods of matchmaking will probably just end up trying all the harder...

it kind of does, just not at T10 - but good luck trying to stop a determined Sinop pushing in with same or lower tier ships. Similar could be said for Gneisenau, just for different reasons - not because it's especially tanky but because it goes 32kts at a tier where Colorado exists... But no, T10 is an area where mindlessly zombierushing in like an idiot will not get you very far, sorry...

that... sounds like quite the useful feature for Dunkerque, Richelieu and Jean Bart... you know, to help them reverse faster...! Damn, now I changed my mind... WG GIB DAT BALANS CHANGE NAO!

then maybe, in your infinite grace and wisdom, you could tell us what you are actually talking about? because at least to me you're quite cryptic there good sir...

see? it could always be a lot worse...

dunno... I noticed how few balance changes there seemed to be as well, but I'm not sure I mind... part of the reason conveniently already mentioned by @Uglesett right above

as far as bugs that actually made it to live go, this one has got to be one of the most impressive and hilarious the game's ever seen (probably outside of the earlier testing stages)... I kinda wish we could corner SubOctavian or someone else from the dev team into a little storytime of even worse better bugs that almost made it to the live servers... any chance you could send a poke towards StPetersburg in that regard @MrConway @Crysantos & Co? Or maybe you have a story or two to share yourself?

at this point, we may as well replace the venerable ol' BBaby Bingo with a MMwhine Bingo...

then maybe... you know... don't? why would you waste everyone's time (including your own) by cherrypicking the perfect replay to "prove your point" (hint: it won't)?

yup, used to be the Yamato for me. to the point where I just gave up on playing the ship. the difference is, I knew and know it's just a matter of perception and confirmation bias as opposed to some magical me-specific bug or conspiracy... I just didnt care enough about the Yamato to persevere and prove myself wrong

frenchies all the way, and that's a german saying that...

you dont need to know the exact armour scheme "of all ships" - but if you had any interest in actually improving as opposed to just complaining, you might as well at least start learning the very basic rules of thumb that govern armour plating... there's not a whole lot to the armour schemes of DDs (the only two notable examples that I can think of of the top of my head are Khaba and Gearing which get somewhat of an armoured belt - everything else is pretty much uniform at a given tier), so you can very easily figure out what you can expect your 100mm secondary battery to do... and while you're at it you can also take a look at how the extremities on larger ships are protected (also uniform across tiers, with a few ships here and there getting extended armour belts that sometimes reach the nose but you can start getting used to which those are once you've got the basics of plating down) and how that interacts with the various calibers of HE and AP you might end up shooting at it.

although "there will never be submarines in Wows"... so who the fudge knows

look at it this way... that's not a problem the majority of the playerbase is likely to have, for sheer lack of the appropriate organ...

65% XP instead of 50% to be precise

...AP to a Stalin of all things? have you heard of the concept of angling perhaps? or, you know, just blowing him out of the water? I get some of the complaints about the smolensk, but this...

yeah as the others have said - mostly depends on which of these ships you play (and care about) the most. If all three are equally dear to your heart, personally I'd probably stick with the build you currently have as a compromise since they're of at least some use on every ship, while BFT is a nope for the Murmansk while CE is really not all that necessary on the Bogatyr. And when the next free reset comes around you might as well try out the switch to CE instead of IFHE for a few days if you time it well, see how much you feel your damage suffers from the lack of pen, and then decide...

just because I'm surprised no one has made that joke yet and feel like I have to correct that glaring omission... Well my spreadsheet says WG are indeed having fun!

already exists in Wows - it's called buying dubloons that you can then use to activate premium time in convenient chunks according to how much you expect to be playing over any given time...

I mean, you'd presumably shrink the game world down a little to make it playable, a la Assassin's Creed... but still yes that is an entirely new game. So unless you have a few dozen million lying around to throw at Wargaming to even just cover the initial development costs, let alone running costs, I suggest you take a little dose of reality into consideration...

source? I dont remember that bit... back when LUs were made there werent any non-techtree T10s unless I'm mixing up my timelines^^

simple - Haru was released after the initial set of Legendary modules, and WG have been too lazy to make more of them so far

they exist, sure, but they get a grand total of something like five obscure mentions in the lore... regular waterboatys are just not flashy and awesome and grimdark enough when you've got warships the size and population of cities floating around up in space...
