(2) The most Overpowered Ship in World of Warships - YouTube

1 - The specific game that sparked my ire and this thread had no CV 2 - Issue is alot of mid tier dd players are inexperienced and are unskilled compared to the average Kami player 3 - Easy to say, harder to do - the torps are really fast with all upgrade/commander skill applied and couple that with poor maneuverability of average mid tier BB and low detectability of the Kami....you can only dodge so many and those torps hit really hard so even 1 or 2 cripple you

That is disappointing - like me, cant imagine many mid tier players, especially those newer to the game, enjoy playing against these OP ships (not fun or engaging)

It was a random pick from filtering against last months youtube and by far not the worst example...just look yourself

Just searched Kamikaze videos on youtube for last month - it always was OP and yes its still OP

No, because its usually the Kamizake/kamikaze R's that are the problem. It is an OP ship for a number of reasons and I suspect you all know it

It would be a lie to say I wouldnt like one, for sure! Yes - from a DD vs Cruiser/BB perspective its OP is what I mean. Very hard hitting, super fast torps with very low concealment. Its very hard to counter, especially given most other Tier 5 DDs are still new/inexperienced so they dont counter them either

1 - Not sure what you are tying to say, that a select group of players have access to very strong ships. Yes its a little unfair 2- Again, what's your point? Stalingrad is 'old' but has still had a nerf to radar duration due to captain skills. So should these - 71 knts base torp speed plus the torp speed module and captain skill! That is ridiculous 3 - That they need a nerf

I understand perfectly, I mean even with active maneuvering, they're hard to dodge. Plus with island cover the ambush threat is huge and their very low detection also limits awareness. Please try playing against them. Not fun

Have you seen how fast the torps go now with all the torp acceleration upgrade/skill. WASD works but you still take 1-2 in less maneuverable cruisers and bbs at lower tier and those torps HURT. Couple that with the low detectability and lack of effective tools to counter and its OP Also, I may be looking at this wrong, but Kamikaze is top of the tier V dd table in terms of WR, average damage, average frags, average experience, K/D (2.43!). Kamikaze R is third with more than 3 243 449 battles played! These ships need nerfs! as they are incredibly hard to counter een in the hands of less skilled players

All I wanted to see was Secondary accuracy restored to pre commander rework level as they near useless at the moment - or refunds for Georgia and Massa

Had this lovely chap yesterday evening

I mean, we all knew this was the case

No, but I do not think WG will listen - spreadsheet says no

I agree, buff's required

Please can the developers consider buffs to Belfast '43. The ship is underperforming, both from my own experience and in the tier 8 cruiser stats more widely. The main issues I think are damage output and survivability - the combination of short smoke and long reload really limits the ship. Please can you consider: Reducing reload time Increasing smoke duration Decreasing time between smoke availability Other suggestions: Improve the armor and ship HP Reduce the concealment Increase both number and range of torpedo's Many Thanks

Seems the consensus is a RoF buff is needed and I would be happy with that

Of course its possible to do really well in her its just a) uncommon and b) ridiculously hard! By 'look at her stats' I mean she's currently 24 out of 27 tier 8 cruisers on wows numbers for EU server. I get the impression you will never be convinced however.

Yes, in my case its because I missed out on the OG Belfast and loved visiting the ship in RL so really wanted her (instant click purchase which of course I regret). That said I don't actually mind the challenge of playing her (currently 65.22% WR from just 23 games) - the issue is the pitifully low DMG at 37 900 in my case. Yes, I'm not 'super-unicum' but broadly speaking I'm ok in other RN light cruisers

Testing is never complete until it hits the game in the public's hands - and IT IS underperforming - just look at the stats. I note even WG have recognised this as they increased number of smoke's from 4 to 5 (with SI) - but that does not address the core problem with this ship as I set out in my post - the very short smoke duration combined with the long reload means your damage output is SEVERLEY limited. If it had the Edinburgh's reload that would be a good start.

Yes - like me :(

What can I say - I saw 'Belfast' and brought her. I'm not complaining - I'm politely requesting. If you had her you would agree she really needs the buffs.

I think I can improve this build :P

I dont expect to be listened to, especially by Wargaming, but please, please, PLEASE can you do something to tame power of deadeye skill vs crusiers and DDs. They're almost unplayable atm - I'm getting blapped from long range with god tier salvos and its just unfair as there is no counter, nothing I can do. In my Hindenburg just now I was insta killed from 18km by a Yamato who hit 9/9 shells (he confirmed in chat as he expressed his surprise!) whilst I was 'nose in' without any indication he was there. Who's going to want to play cruisers long term with that? If deadeye has to be in the game please can you consider making it only come into effect vs other BBs and CV

This ship is really poor and I regret buying it. I know no one at WG will listen but, my feedback on this ship (Belfast '43 is): the reload is too long and should be reduced the ship has no heal which is a poor experience in tier 8 gameplay with strong cv's, much more radar, hydro etc, the AA is poor, especially against high tier cvs and should be buffed and ability to slot DFAA added Firing range (15.4) is mediocre and cant be extended the torps should be 10km to match Edinburgh and do more damage as they're not much of a threat to high tier bbs Damage of shells - the AP should do more damage for tier 8, the HE should also have better damage/pen and more chance of fires (struggle to do any damage), the smoke should be longer or give more charges as it cannot open water gun boat in any fashion. she's so clumsly, the ability to slot propulsion mod would be great All in all, really disappointed in this purchase and feel conned TBH. I've been refused a refund so can only help she gets buffed massively. Glad its not just me though: https://youtu.be/lbDHBggAPwg
