MATREKUS

Says a man with total of 14 matches in german ships. hihihi

German cruisers are complete garbage. They are not "diffrent" like some would say. Just crappy. I deleted the slot and left my trained german captain for better times. If they ever come. So its simple for me, I just dont play them. PS: Even Admiral Hipper is garbage (specially in its tier) I sunk 2 of them (one with the help of a DD though) with Myoko (which isnt a great ship tbh). And Im an average skilled player....german CA = GARBAGE

I have only one t7 ship (all the rest t6 and 5), its Myoko. Dunno about the new MM but last night I was put (in 3 missions in a row!) vs t8 and t9 ships. To make the thing worse, there was about 5 of the t9 ships on both sides. all the rest t8 and TWO t7 ships (me and one DD included). What is the purpose of such MM which almost constanlty puts me vs 2 tier up matches? To quit paying premium acc and grinding and go back to t5 and 6 to support topic starter.

Its ridiclous...Minekaze, IJN tier 5 DD (and IJN DDs are known for relatively weak guns) has 2000 HP damage with HE shells (with his 120mm guns) while Nurneberg, KM tier 6 crusier has just 1700 of damage with HE shells (150mm guns)? Do you see the nonsense? Who would play german crusiers with such pathetic damage since even the tier 8 isnt much better...

I can confirm everything Spartakus said. But I think one particular thing needs to be addressed ASAP. HE shells damage od main guns in german crusisers upt to tier7. On example, Konigsberg (which I tested) has 1700 of HP damage with HE shells (150mm guns) while IJN destroyer of tier 5 has 2000 HP damage with HE shells (120mm guns). Bigger caliber, same type of shells, less damage.

Im not at all. If Im a fanboy then its for british ships. But if I see a nonsense 120mm He shell doing more damage than 150mm shell - then Ill say it.

They had an advatage in range in RL btw. With few exceptions. Never mind. They will probably fix that sooner or later cause otherwise they wont be played much I suppose.

Ahh I knew there is an excuse. And where or when we will se additional german CA tree with heavy cruisers?

Ok. And why they introduced pathetic "german" CA tree in the game?. Variaty? Nope. Nobody would like to play "weak guns" CAs which can be beaten by small DD guns. Not me. I have US and IJN CA very capable of doing damage. Pitty.

Nope, just the caliber (same type of shells) and since I was in military Im 100% sure this is complete nonsense in either way you look.

So because we want to make SF out of the naval warfare we will make such nonsense. BTW, whats about other cruisers, of other nations, in the game?. US and IJN cruisers of the same tier have much better HE damage than german. Why there wasnt any balance applied then? What if that "poor" DD meet them? See? hehe gimme a break

120mm japanese t5 DD = 2000 HP damage with HE shells 150mm german t6 CA = 1700 HP damage with HE shells

Yes exactly, doesnt make sense. If its because of balance then again it doesnt make sense. What they tried to achive there? German crusiers surely werent super armoured but had very good and accurate guns.

Looney is right about my point and I think I have a reasonable question mark here. I mean, I get the distance and No of guns thingie but how a japanese 120mm guns from a destroyer can beat bigger (and btw better) german 150mm guns on crusier in HE damage? Can you explain that logic to me please? BTW, the "brain comment" is kinda offensive and against forum rules.

The trick with Ognevoi (and all RU and US DDs in general) is that you need to use different tactic than in IJN DDs and need to use brains more oftehan than not. Its a formidable ship once you get disciplined.

Trashing money is players own choice. WG has right to do whatever they want withing the law. What I did is - purchased 2 months premium and I have ships I want (one DD of t5 one t7 and one t6 CA, t5 BB) and thats it. No more preomium buying most probably. 20 euros fro this game is about right contribution for their effort. Maybe in the future I would buy more premium time to gain more ships and to support but for that they will need to try hard. Also I have some other games I play.

I dont have a problem paying for a good and fun game which will bring so many "good moments" into my gaming hobby. However that doesnt mean they can advertise as the game is completely free. In my experince, MMO "free" games ate the ones ppl cash in more than one time 100 bucks purchases (that is, without addons).

You didnt get my sarcasm it seams....in tier 8 the repair costs are insane and without premium you wont have enough of ingame currency to repair ships no matter how good the match was...

You will found out how free the game is once you reach tier 8. Happy free playing mate!

then leave this on in the background, when you play as a DD

With all the arcadish cra* in the game, never existing ships and loadouts, mods, insane rng, etc...problem for you is torp spam? Really? hahahaha

If they dont make the uber captain for uber DDs, I will not play them

I hope they will introduce digital posters in the premium store. Lets say posters of some well balanced premium ships. Ofcourse the offer would be EU only special offer and just for 30 euros each.

Game doesnt even have a proper anti aliasing much less 64 bit support. Ofcourse we have that pathetic FXAA which is locked to post process effects which are huge resource hogs...

...without in battle GUI...maybe with just a small simple aim indicator, no distances infos, no icons, no nicknames or info about ships, no IDs, no indicators...nothing...and two teams, one japanese and one american....or german and british.... I think that would never happen in game as only few will care...most players probably think IJN fleet beat (to the bones) russian fleet in WW2 not in 1905.... eheh pitty..because imagine how fun such match would be....ppl would need to learn to ID ships etc....
