    Diskuze k "Otázkám pro WG"

    No, nevěděl jsem... ale vzhledem k tomu, že je na netu i Síň slávy, nepřekvapuje mne to. Dík. Hmm, dá se mimo hru taky dostat na klanovou základnu? Ta se nahrává ve hře stejným (pomalým a blbým) způsobem.

    ST - changes to test ships

    Nope, as noted above by gopher31, 25mm plating is standard on T8+ cruisers, light or heavy. The only exception up until recently* were british light cruisers - AKA the gimmick line. *That would be because of the newcomers (Smolensk, Colbert and Bayard) potentially being testing ground for a future plating change along with planned IFHE changes. Either way, I find Mainz to be an even worse offering than the original Eugen. At least that one had (and afaik still has) a unique captain XP bonus on the permacamo. Can't shake the feeling that only german DDs make decent premiums.

    Diskuze k "Otázkám pro WG"

    Tady bych tě krapet opravil, původně byl AA sektor v novém okně, které sis otevřel (a držel otevřené) tlačítkem a pak jsi najel kurzorem na tu či onu stranu. Pravda, to bylo zcela otřesné, potřeboval jsi jak myš tak klávesnici a ještě jsi musel dávat sakra pozor, v jaké orientaci vůči letadlům zrovna jsi. Čili rozhodně preferuji stávající systém oproti původnímu. Nicméně, chtělo by to zjednodušit případy, kdy jeden pálí na levobok a letadla přilétají z pravoboku. Ono točení se s pravým tlačítkem myši pro nás "touchpadisty" moc není...

    ST - British heavy cruisers

    What? I absolutely don't understand your line of thought here. The bolded part says that some OP ships are judged more harshly than others. Do you somehow understand from that sentence that I'm fine with OP ships like Kitakaze, because it is not Soviet? That I'm fine with Giulio Cesare? What I am saying is that I'll whine less for an OP Musashi than I'll whine for an OP Kremlin. Why? Because with Musashi, you have to follow at least some stats as they really were. With Kremlin, you are pretty much free to balance everything as you see fit. Therefore it should be somewhat easier to manage to create a balanced Kremlin (Is it too tanky? give it worse armor. Too good guns? Give it different ones.) than a balanced Musashi (Guns too good? Tough luck, it had huge guns. Armor too thick? Too bad, it had silly amounts.). Basically when WG creates a ship, all the parameters can be moved as needed, no excuse to make an OP ship. If you model a ship that existed with some parameters, you are already bound by what other similar ships are in game and have to hope soft stats will be enough to provide balancing freedom. Oh, and when I start a list with "like", obviously it will not be an exhaustive list, duh.

    OMG, everybody keeps putting words in my mouth today, what is wrong with you people? Where do you see in this sentence that some navies should be allowed to have OP ships? I explain why there is more uproar against soviet ships when they are OP. I explain why it is understandable. And the point is, most of the time, it is soviet ships that are by far most OP. Then I easily understand the uproar and am frustrated myself. Also, why would German, French or Italian ship players be "second class players"? Those navies existed and were significant.

    ST - British heavy cruisers

    When you quote only half the sentence, obviously you are completely wrong. See what I actually wrote (specifically the newly underlined part): I did not mention Bourgogne or any other ships you consider OP. I made a list of the ships I consider most outrageous, which is also why I added an "imho" right there. If you are fine playing ships from navies that weren't able to build a single battleship after the first world war, your choice. It frustrates me that such navies get lines in before other navies that operated multiple modern BBs and even more so when such would be navies get OP fantastical ships. And yes, Stalingrad I hate facing even more than Smolensk and Kitakaze. That idiocy always wrecks me in two salvoes, no matter the class of ship I am in and as long as that guy doesn't [edited]up and show me broadside, it is more resilient than BBs (with one exception: Kremlin). I don't need to listen to stupid Stalinium jokes when I see daily the absurd performance of a number of soviet ships. Bourgogne is a fun ship with amazing firepower and great manoeuvrability, but it is an absolute paper. Again, I consider Kremlin (and Stalingrad) way stronger. Kutuzov I didn't mention in my list simply because of all the powercreep. It is still strong, but nowhere near as OP as the soviet "reward" cruisers or Belfast. Oh and as an aside, Ohio isn't more accurate than Legendary mod Yamato. Thunderer is as it has large cruiser dispersion with 8 guns unlike Georgia's 6. Ohio got nerfed quite a bit because on top of the guns, it has noticeably better sutvivability and secondaries. It sure does when the main draw of the game is to play famous historical ships... That is why I am more than happy that these ugly british heavy cruisers have at least some basis in reality and were planned to be built wherein the Brits actually had the ability to build the ships.

    ST - British heavy cruisers

    There is one very simple reason why very strong and yes, sometimes even OP, ships from countries like Great Britain, USA, France or even Japan can be judged more leniently than overperforming soviet ships: These other countries actually had historically significant navies. One additionnal reason for the hate: Oftentimes these soviet monsters were added in the game before first lines from other more important navies were added. Just as an aside, most ridiculous BBs for their tier right now imho are Kremlin, Vladivostok, Imperator Nikolai, Giulio Cesare and Musashi (notice the prevalence of one nation...). Most ridiculous cruisers (at high to mid tiers): Smolensk, Stalingrad, Colbert, Belfast (again one nation has several contenders...) Only in DDs I see a different main offender: Kitakaze. Then there's a plethora of really strong and not very healthy ships where it's difficult to pick just a few worst ones (Friesland, Benham, Neustrashimy, Black, Somers, Kamikazes, T-61, ...). So yes, I'm very sensitive to seeing any soviet ship doing well as it by far wouldn't be the only one. As a last aside, notice that from that previous list, the only ships that actually never existed are soviet - and Kitakaze. All others were at least built. Yeah, what a coincidence.

    Hmm, Roon has one of those as well... The thing is though, Sov. Soyuz and other planned soviet BBs were kinda inspired by german BBs lookwise, so... (I love the look of modern german BBs and specifically Soyuz - the main reason I grinded soviet BBs). Oh, Scharnie has 2.0 sigma? That's a huge NOPE for Odin then, lol. And from all I've seen on Flambass and Flamu streams, Siehfried was very meh, so I hope for FreeXP as well. Coal would be questionnable given all the OP and very strong choices there.

    Diskuze k "Otázkám pro WG"

    Zaplavování penetracemi od granátů bylo příliš časté a všichni končili zaplavením, když se to zkoušelo ještě kdysi, než jsem se dal do hraní WoWs. Jinak pro tebe mám @ElHabanero asi špatnou zprávu: nic lepšiho než overpen BB AP do DDček nedáš. I když půjde o penetraci (a tak se zobrazí i ribbon), stejně je DMG omezeno na 1/10, čili stejně jako overpen. (Jediné výjimky jsou Harugumo a Khabarovsk, tam se vyplatí občas je s bitevkou kuchat AP.) No a ty hity s Konigsbergem, prostě zbylé granáty jen těsně minuly. Musel bys ten replay asi zpomalit, aby to bylo zřetelné. A i kdyby to potom vypadalo, že mělo být hitů víc, ještě mohlo jít o desync. To se taky stává.

    ST - British heavy cruisers

    London kinda reminds me of the original Exeter. Smoke, heal, hydro, HE and torps in one package. Only London has an additional turret and is one tier higher. Yeah, I expect she'll need nerfs. That's awesome. But I agree, their looks are fine. It's at the very least a distinctive line and quite different from fluid french and italian cruiser lines and well balanced german one.

    ST - British heavy cruisers

    Oh my god are these ugly! Basically what I'd imagine brutalist architecture applied to warships would look like: ugly steel monsters. Even british BBs look refined in comparison... Now that I got this first impression off of my chest, gonna study the stats in more detail.
  12. Toivia

    ST - Luigi Sansonetti, Odin, Siliwangi

    Well it's nice not to see another bunch of T9-10 Coal/Steel/NTC grind ships for a change. I think that's mostly down to the somewhat unusual camo scheme. Assuming Odin gets armor comparable to Bismarck (aka very resilient unless shot in the huge superstructure), it should work at least to a degree. I'm curious whether the 2.0 sigma on the guns will manage to make them at least somewhat reliable considering that dispersion appears to be plain german BB catastophe. What will also matter a lot are the rear turret firing angles (and potentially torp firing angles as well).

    Italian Cruisers: the Ships’ History

    Well, Capitani Romani is a DD as per WG, so... Anyway, it's too modern to be put at such a low tier. Also, Zara at T8-9? So far it doesn't seem particularly good even at T7 and that is with torpedoes she afaik shouldn't even have.

    Statistika obsahu kontejnerů

    Tak teda závidím, zrovna Dunkerque, Perth a T-61 byly jediné lodě, co bych bral raději než Mutsu.
  15. Toivia

    Statistika obsahu kontejnerů

    Tak jsem dohledal odměny za první tři direktivy - zas až taková katastrofa to nebyla: - 15 000 uhlí (juchů, toho nikdy není dost - v podstatě mám permanentní manko cca 400 tisíc). - 100 India Yankee signálů (méně hoření - no, bez toho bych se fakt obešel...) - 100 Juliet Charlie signálů alias antidetonačky - no, sláva to není, ale ironicky jsem zrovna tou dobou zvažoval, že bych poprvé nějaké nakoupil v arsenálu, jelikož jsem spadl pod 100. No nic, tak příště, že? EDIT: Jo a upřímnou soustrast s těmi Huang Meh.
  16. Toivia

    Statistika obsahu kontejnerů

    Tak z T6 kontíku vypadla Mutsu. Tož stěžovat si nebudu, pár loděk bych viděl raději, ale většina možností byla podstatně horších. Navíc Mutsu je krasavice a má svá meme torpéda. Ještě se musím podívat, co padlo ze superkontejnerů za minulé tři direktivy, ale žádná sláva to asi nebyla, neb si je nepamatuji.
  17. Toivia

    Statistika obsahu kontejnerů

    No vidíš, raduj se. Zrovna včas k italské linii křižníků. Až na to, že D'Aosta vyžaduje úplně jiného kapitána než budoucí lodě a navíc jde konsenzuálně o křáp.

    Italian Cruisers: the Ships’ History

    Well I would have expected some reasoning as to why they picked a 15 gun design, particularly since they happened to preface the article with the intent to detail every cruiser in the branch. I mean sure, when the ships have no history and apparently WG cannot even explain why it made them in their particular shape, then by all means... But don't try to lure me into reading thinking there will be actual information.

    Žabákovy kvákterky

    To bylo za jeden z těch kódů kolem narozeninového streamu (jak tam padlo snad tucet různých kódů většinou s pár signály a prémiovými DCP).
  20. Toivia

    Italian Cruisers: the Ships’ History

    Then: Yup, that is a really detailed overview. And the T9 is really not much better...

    Hmm, Mikasu? Tu jsem dlouho neprovětral. Pokud nebude příští týden tak hektický, jak ho zatím očekávám, mohl bych se nachomýtnout.

    Italian Cruisers: the Rules Made Simple

    Oh you got me, in game, dates go further than 15th. I only source information from the patchnotes, where no mention further than 15th were. BUT, in the armory, french tokens must be spent within the 16th and truly on the firts win bonuses, 17th is even showing up. So yes, update will hit Thursday 17th then @Pumpkin_Muffin.

    Vlhká zpovědnice

    @Mrsk_original No, za to, že tě spoluhráči taranují nezrůžovíš. Párkrát už jsem se nešťastně zasekl na celé minuty, ale růžovka se ze mne nestala. Jediné, k čemu to vede, je, že růžovkou zůstaneš na další bitvy, pokud už růžovka jsi. V takovém případě nezbývá než se chovat obzvlášť opatrně a stranit se ostatních hráčů (nebo to odjet v Coopu).
  24. Toivia

    Italian Cruisers: the Rules Made Simple

    Umm, no. Looking further into the article as well as previous patch articles, you could easily conclude the patch arrives next Tuesday, 15th of October. Daily Shipments are still delayed for the habitual Thurdsay starts. (Hint: Look into when current anniversary directives end and when new italian directives begin.)

    Oh, yikes, I forgot about that... Well that indeed screws the whole event then. Of course, hoping for an event (even just slightly) better than the previous ones was naive of me...
