I don't know about you guys but the last time I saw a YY in randoms was a long time ago....

500 battles. That is an impressive number! Did you play loads per session or some every day?

I wonder why.... Funny thing is that my list is non existent. In history a lot of people silenced those who disagreed with them. Most of the time it turned out very bad for them in the end. You're not interested in stats but at the same time you're interested in stats. If you dont care about stats why do you care about people creating a new account?

@Redcap375 Why isn't the Bourgogne OP? You use exactly the same arguments regarding its stats as I did back in the stalingrad discussion, namely: low accessability to the players skewes the stats and low number of battles played.

Amounts of times my match was lost due to a cv: zero. Amounts of times my match was lost due to rentals and/or clueless teammates: a lot.

Would indeed be nice!

That is because you haven't embraced the true power of secondary yolo rushes, you filthy statobsessed camper.

LOL. What did I just read? Oh and maybe it got lost somewhere but did you notice he was Dutch? oh dear some of my fellow countrymen are rather special specimens.

Me when people come at me with secondarie specced yammies:

Epicentre is so crap when youre in a DD. The entire team just brainlessly screams "DD CAP MID, DD CAP MID". So the next twenty minutes you just sit there taking radars, torps, planes, longe range HE yamatos, etc. etc. Until you die and then your team says "NOOB DD YOU LOST US THE GAME".

That is the question. When is a player tampering the game (and fun) for others? Sailing on the border? Suicide rushing? Teamkilling?

This is 2019. People watch streams of paint drying. What a time to be alive! But seriously: People watch streams for a multitude of reasons. Either they cant play themselves at that particular time, or they dont want to play themselves, or they enjoy talking with either the streamer or the other viewers. Why do people watch sports when they can play it themselves? Why do people play simulator games when they can go out there and do it themselves? Because it doesnt stress you out as much. Thats why people watch some guy or girl play a game instead of playing it themselves. People who cant understand are probably born pre 1980.

... And stop wasting our time.

*game starts and i proceed to the nearest cap* "Oh, look a smoke in the cap and I am a shima. Let's send a wall of skill into it and see what happens...."

possibruuu

Even if I'm really bad at something, for example tennis, I really want to win. I can't play a thousand tennis matches and not be bothered by the amount of losses. Even if I don't put in the effort to win. I don't know how these people enjoy it. Totally different mindset.

7000 battles and this guy talks about cheats.

Wrong. He explains why the numbers can't be compared with logic.

All ships have rng to deal with what is your point?

You make a theoritical comparison between alpha strikes of different classes. Then ofcourse the cv comes last. But we both know that is not how it is ingame. Sure, a cv may have an alpha strike of "only" around 25 k. Only the difference is the interval between these strikes and the % of strikes that is able to get the max damage. In a BB you maybe do one or two heavy hits (30+ k) per match. In a CA you maybe have a 30+k salvo every 5 matches. In a DD you may hit a dev strike every two or three games. This is not the case in a CV. If you're skilled enough then every AP bomb run does a high alpha strike no matter the circumstances. And I already talked about the circumstances necessary to achieve such salvos.

AP bombs. You can reliably hit any target anywhere on the map regardless of radar hydro Def AA angling positioning etc. A squad can attack with a couple of runs per squad. You do the math. BBs on the other hand need LoS (spotter plane yeah I know) to hit a target, DDs need to be in range to torp, Cruisers need to have a broadside or their AP will bounce. But yes, if you go purely theoretical than for example a Shima has a higher POTENTIAL alpha strike with its 15 torpedos than any T10 ship..........

And for every winning DD there will be a losing DD, etc. etc. What @Redcap375 is trying to say is that after the rework a lot of average players switched from CA/DD/BB to CV and have been getting better results. In other words: The old RTS CVs were hard to become even remotely decent at, the new ones are simpler so require way less practice to become average in.
