There, I'm ready, just tell me the name of the room to join.

You mentioned Hipper, but feel free to take anything you want

Just a min, I'm downloading Mod to enable training room. Btw, yes you will damage BB, but how much damage will that be? 5% of his hp pool?

FIFY

And then wake up.

I highly doubt OP was talking about Zao vs Yamato matchup, so yea, feel free to hit BB from 18km away in something like Omaha for example.

FIFY

Yup, cruisers are faster, more agile and better at running down enemies then DDs are. Not. So feel free to chase a DD in a cruiser across half of the map. I sure won't. PS. Keep chasing him, sooner or later YOU will run into other enemy ships, not him.

Teamwork wasn't present ONLY in CBT. There was a time when you needed DDs to spot and cruisers to provide AA support. But not only in CBT, and you can have teamwork without invisfire... If you are talking about real life horizon, then last time I learned about it (was a long time ago), it worked both ways. So if I cannot see you, you can't see me either. And last time I checked, people were bitching about BBs sniping from 20km away (myself included). Now you are telling me to stay 20km away from Zao... I smell something fishy there... And I didn't say everything should be visible at all times. You have concealment. Use it. Use it to your advantage to pick the fights on your own terms, not other way around. But as soon as you open fire, you should be visible. Now, will you open fire at 18km and wiggle around (with a cruiser) dodging shells, or from 13km away in a DD, or even from 10km away in a cruiser, thats completely up to you. And thats where you will see difference between good and bad players. Good one will know which fights they can win, or whats a somewhat good position for them to fight, bad ones will fail to do so. But neither one will cheese around spamming completely undetected with other guy unable to do anything to counter it by himself.

Well, shooting forts is good, right? RIGHT?

Man oh man, I called game mechanic retarded. I hope I didn't hurt her feelings. My sincerest apologies if I did. And no, stealth firing doesn't promote teamplay. It does to some extent, but there is a fundamental problem to countering it. And that is, there are 2 classes in the game that can counter invis firing. DD and a CV. Too bad CVs are non existent in 80% of games, and DDs aren't always around to fulfill your every wish on your whim. Aka to charge around the map as you want (or sometimes, they are simply dead). But next time when I encounter Zao spamming HE from his spawn undetected, I'll kindly ask my DD to go into their spawn to spot him, no problems there, right. Or I could just summon the Gods of CBT to my aid. Yea, that could work. Because, obviously only gods of CBT know how to counter invis firing. And yea, CBT. The glorious times when grass was green and skies were blue. God damn, I spent only more then a year in this game, but I wasn't here in the CBT. That hurts. That really hurts. I should probably uninstall the game because I missed such a glorious times. Since I can never again have such an experience, my life will never be fulfilled. But... On the other hand, I can see your point. Sailors on ships were mostly blind, and couldn't see other ships shooting at them in the middle of the open waters. So I have to agree with you, its a good mechanic, and I should just learn to appreciate it. PS. You are using CBT a bit too much.

Yes mtm, I think its a twitch based shooter. Thats obviously what I posted here, right... I never liked that mechanic, and I've always considered it retarded. Not being able to see ship shooting at you at the middle of the freaking ocean? Sure. Why not. Balance comrade? Maybe, but its still retarded. And as I said, I have stealth firing ships, I'm abusing using the mechanic into my advantage in every possible way, but that doesn't mean I think its good, or should be in the game at the first place.

As people said, you cannot out run cruiser, so you won't achieve anything by running away, and withing 10km range you can delete her in 1 salvo. Close the distance, wait for her to show you broadside, aim for citadels. If the player is smart enough not to show you broadside, aim directly into the bow for your shells to overmatch the bow armor, and punch right into the ship (possibly below the front turrets, resulting into another citadel)

Stealth firing shouldn't even be in the game in the first place. Its just beyond retarded mechanic. (not talking about abusing terrain). And yes, I'm saying that as a proud Blyska/Benson/Chapayev/Ognevoi/Des Moines owner.

Yea, I somehow decided (as strange as it might seem), not to strike Iowa to ensure my High caliber I know I should, but.. you know... I've heard she might like tier 7 planes

Well, you have to multitask a lot, you have to read the battle and your opponent quite well not to loose planes / to kill his planes. You have to know what ships have terrible/good/excellent AA. You need to adapt to situation in a few seconds. You need to find the best target, and the best aproach to that target etc etc. For a lot of people, even 1-2 of mentioned things are too much. (and I'm not trying to diss someone...)

OK, now ur being @sses... to OP: don't wait till the planes make the drop. As soon as you see planes on your screen, start turning your bow towards them at once. If he wants to drop to your broadside, he will have to spend more time inside your AA range, and loose more planes. If he drops you while you have your bow pointed to planes, you can dodge them quite easily, or in the worst case scenario, eat only 1 torp. cheers.

Your typical BB player is MLG 1337 360 no scope pro compared to this guys.

Yea, imagine the size of my smile...

Thats why you have Missouri in every high tier game, usually afking or sitting in spawn "sniping" bow on from 20+ km away? Much achieved, such wow.

OK, ARE YOU F****ING KIDDING ME!?!? Try to guess did I finish the f***ing mission. f***ing screwed up CV economy and XP gain Jesus I'm tilted... And just to clarify some things. We had only 1 cap, so no, they did not cap 5 points so they have huge XP because of that. There was only 2 DDs on enemy team, and I killed Yugumo (tier 9 DD, as a t7 CV), so I should even get bonus XP for it. I have 3 defended ribbons, I have 5 kills (1 CV, 1 DD, 1 cruiser, and 2 BBs from which 1 was t8), AND I'm 4TH ON THE SCOREBOARD? Not 1st, not 2nd, but FOURTH? I really wonder what did those guys do, except for Neptune.

world of warships main page -> news -> patch announcment

Its not a bug, its a feature. Working as intended On a more serious notice, just looking at the picture makes me freaking nervous...

Glad you changed your mind

SHARDS!But, don't be afraid, we will now get a new and improved bastion, with improved forts! (like that matters...)
