    Hiding ARP now that the ports gone ?

    But you didn't bother to check the available tick boxes in the filter? "Wasn't a beta tester for nothing"

    WARNING WARNING NOOB IS SETTING SAIL

    To be honest there is no general 'best line', as it depends entirely on preferences and play style of players. I would suggest to start with either IJN or USN, and get to T4 or T5. Test out the different ship classes so you know which one fits you best. E.g. if you like battleships the most, you can play either 3 available BB trees (IJN, USN and KM). Good luck and have fun!

    WHERE IS THE FIRST WIN OF THE DAY BONUS EXP WG?

    You're crying because you have +50% reward in stead of +100%?

    Secret santa- completely broken?

    What I received was worth almost double than what I paid (if I counted correctly )

    Submarines

    Sometimes this is okay, but most of the time it isn't. A good CV player moves his ship in such way that his planes will take the a 'short' time to reach and return from their possible targets (but still concealed from enemy fire).

    Submarines

    I would like some AI submarines to patrol the map borders and sink ships that camp there.
  7. "I have to shoot at max range and not tank for my team" Regarding the total amount of health, a single overpenetration on a Destroyer hits less hard (percentage-wise) as a single penetration on a Battleship. Furthermore, a DD can't repair the damage it takes, while a Battleship can. Shooting (and hitting) enemy DDs helps the allied DDs a lot; even if you only get 2 or 3 overpenetrations. That 2k-3k damage can really 'tip the balance' in a brawl between DDs. Really? The majority of the Cruisers aren't OP at all; neither are the majority of the DDs. I could say that 4-5 BBs per team in each battle makes them OP (if the BBs know what they're doing). - Cruisers have to play really careful or they'll get deleted as soon as BBs focus them. - Destroyers also have to play more careful to not get hit by the AP of BBs; as mentioned above, multiple overpenetrations do really hurt DDs (because they have such few health). Battleships are by far the easiest and most forgiving class to play. :edit: If DDs are so OP, how come you don't play them more often and have such poor stats with the ones you did play? Maybe try to play DDs more so you know what are their strengths and weaknesses. If I'm sailing a DD and enemy BBs start shooting me (and I notice some of them have good aim), I'll haul [edited]out of there ASAFP. Like I said, taking multiple overpenetrations (or a single penetration if RNG hates you) really hurts and has a significant impact on how I play that battle.
  8. Yes, that's what I said. Hence I gave the tip to buy them in smaller amounts. This helped me greatly; buying them in 'packs' of 4 (and immediately opening them before I bought a new 'pack') gave me a premium ship every time (without doubles). And I'll repeat, the €3 crates seem to hold the best ratio of premium ships. With the €1 crates I got mostly flags & new year 2017 camouflages. The €5 crates seem to give mostly (the better) flags & (the better) camouflages. -> e.g. Dragon flags & Restless fire camouflage
  9. Another bump. Subscribe while you still can! Only a few days left!
  10. Playing with a friend on low tiers (he's grinding the KM BB tree). I took out my Langley; damn I felt so dirty
  11. Met Negativvv last night; we had some nice couple of games together. Especially the last one; we were both sailing our Scharnhorst and both got the Dreadnought achievement. Tanking like a boss!
  12. It's insane. Don't know who said it first; but this game is really becoming World of Battleshits Battleships. What's next? Reduce the time the fire lasts? Reduce the amount of damage per each fire tick? Why not nerf flooding as well? And buff the Heal Party! Why not let Battleships repair all damage 100%?
  13. It was a good game indeed (with double Scharnhorst in T8 battle). We were both on top of our team list by XP and we both got the Dreadnought achievement - guess we did something right

    Where did the Super Containers Go?!

    in 130+ TYL containers I got 2 supercontainers. The last SC I got was at TYL#27, so I'm over a 100x TYL without an SC. I'll probably switch to camouflages & consumables
  15. lup3s

    erm...

    The tasks of the other campaigns are also repeatable.. (but I might have misunderstood your post .. sorry if I did)
  16. Exactly; if you want a certain ship (e.g. Tirpitz), but you don't own any (or a lot of) other premium ships; it's more profitable to just buy it from the premium shop.

    Sims; TA on the 9.2km torps?

    Thank you for all the replies! It looks like opinions are divided. TA does seem to be a waste of 3 captain points; so I'll have to test both to find which ones suit my style of playing the most. You're sure he's not sailing the Kamikaze?
  18. And again a (hidden) buff to BBs.. Wtf
  19. I edited OP. You're not guaranteed to receive premium ship every time you buy the Presents. If spent about €90 on these Presents; this was my gift to myself for these Holidays. I don't want to urge anyone to buy them; I just made this topic that if someone wants to spend money on it, how it can be done in a most profitable way.

    Where did the fun go?

    So it's fine that you're able to survive an encounter with 2 of the ship class that are supposed to counter your class? Let's reverse this. Battleships counter Cruisers. How would you feel when you are with 2 Battleships against 1 Cruiser, and he manages to kill both of you? Furthermore, how would you feel when you are with 4 Battleships against 1 Cruisers, and he manages to kill 3 of you? And then this Cruiser player would come to the forum and whine about Battleships being OP and that they are overrepresented in most battles?

    Faildivisions

    Why not? If you're the T7, you're guaranteed to NEVER meet T9s.. -> this is abuse imo Like someone mentioned before; if you form a +1/-1 division, a pop-up should appear that MM will only consider the highest tier in the division.

    Where did the fun go?

    So you had a situation where you, a Battleship, were alone against 4 Destroyers, which are supposed to be the counter to Battleships. Yet you sunk 3 of them and you're still whining? Will you also whine when you're in a Destroyer, alone against 4 Cruisers, and still manage to sink 3 of them? Or when you're in a Cruiser, alone against 4 Battleships, and still manage to sink 3 of them? Seriously you're whining about a situation which should be impossible to win anyway, and yet you were able to sunk 3 of the 4 ships that counter your class.. This just proves again that Battleships have become too powerful in comparison to any of the other classes.
  23. That's because he already has (almost) all other premium ships. ->
  24. I bought some more €3 crates, got a Tirpitz and a Lo Yang!
  25. Enemy Kutuzov (nearly full health) appeared behind an island before me at ~5km and smoked up. I was sailing my New Orleans, so I loaded AP and activated my radar. "Devastating Strike" After the battle I got this achievement:
