    No DDs capping anymore

    No, priorities are different depending on what DD you're playing, depending depending on the team line-ups and priorities change several times during the battle depending on who is where and what is happening. If khaba or kleber follows your priorities list, he's dead in the 2nd minute. Most "normal" DDs look at a situation before deciding if early cap is worth the risk, something like a Daring will be more inclined to go for it because he's tough to beat at close range, something like grozo or harugumo can go for it early (unlike kleber & khaba) but they will be less inclined to do it. If there's no CV, no radar and you outspot or outgun the DD on the other side, go for it. If there's one twelve second radar, maybe go for it, if there's planes and a nevsky, don't go for it. You can't make a list of priorities and simply follow it in all games.
  2. Yeah no, there's 11 unhappy players on the other side. More likely the botting issue isn't widespread enough for them to allocate frequent and significant resources to it. I remember last year there was an event where you could earn doubloons for inviting friends to play, there was an infestation of Königsberg bots infesting T5/T6 games, they were everywhere, complaints came and they cracked down on it hard, all the bots were gone overnight. I suspect it's something they monitor and do a wipe of bots periodically. Botting will probably never be a widespread problem because normally there's no way to extract real world money from the game with botting. The people running bots are really just too lazy to grind

    Question about the Dead Eye Skill

    It uses the concealment you spawn with in the match, before shooting guns or being on fire or whatever.

    What's good about Italian battleships?

    Low tier bad, SAP is trash when ships are covered in armor. At T8+ the way ships are armored SAP should become valuable. So while the low tier ones are bad, the high tier ones could be good. SAP effectively does AP damage without overpens. It's all about how ships are armored, a "modern" battleship has a strip of super thick plating and the rest of the ships is lightly armored, that's a lot of area for SAP to do its thing. A low tier dreadnought is covered in thick'ish plating so SAP has nowhere to do its thing. I think when people start to figure out what 12.500DMG SAP shells do at T8/T9T/10 we're going to be happy these ships are not very accurate.

    Dreadnoughts need an AA Buff

    Yes and no, I played Texas a few times so I know what it does to a squadron of planes, I can read the AA values and see they are abnormal for a T5, I can see results of people getting 60, 70, 80 plane kills. In the few times I played it I personally just never had a CV dumb enough to keep going after me The one ship where you want planes to come for you, they dont come for you.
  6. Answering mong questions through private messages isn't their job. No, wargaming does not sell software to bot in their own videogame. Some mongs on obscure forums sell software to other mongs. Many people wish bots would be detected sooner, that doesn't mean wargaming ignores bots and it certainly doesn't mean they sell botting software.

    Exactly, most people already don't care about karma, it becomes truly meaningless if you can just spam karma. I'm actually proud if I carry and people +1 me, I +1 people for carrying too. I do lose my karma when I see a bunch of ships balled up in the corner "sniping" and I get mad at them though. Making karma a spam-thing isn't a good idea

    Dreadnoughts need an AA Buff

    Well yes because carriers won't come near Texas unless they absolutely have to. Server record for texas is 120 dead planes, dozens of people have had 100+ dead plane games. Thousands of people have had 60-70 dead plane games. Expecting 100 plane kills was hyperbolic but the ship can do that, what's going to happen in the vast majority of his games, CV will just not go for him. If CV does go for him, repeatedly, for some reason, 80-90-100 plane kills is possible. Haven't played texas in years, didn't look up the numbers but I know it's the ultimate plane-shredder at low tier, the only reason you play Texas is so you can play low tier BB and not get harassed by planes, this is what OP asked for.

    More carbon copy premiums incoming.

    Yes, we are thinking that because A) The dev blog literally says they're only doing this to reduce grind 2) They have done this before and all it did was reduce grind They are not going to nerf 21 ships into the ground, calm down, take a deep breath Wargaming makes mistakes but can you stop pretending like they spend all day smoking cigars in a basement and coming up with ways to upset fans? In this fantasy of yours do they stab puppies with sharp objects while they come up with new methods to make everyone sad? The only bad thing about this change is new players will get to T10 even quicker, we don't need that. They're not going to nerf the goddamn ognevoi and new york lmao.

    Report/+1 system

    It's not hidden in monitor and you can clearly see a correlation between winrate and karma, high winrate players tend to have tons of karma, from people saying thx for carrying me bro. There are exceptions, good players with 0 karma, they carry teams and yell at them for being potatoes, so they don't gain karma because they lose it faster than they gain it.

    Players with the same name??

    This is not possible. They were probably messing with O and 0 (the letter o and the number zero) Or I and l (small letter L and big letter i)

    You're not supposed to +1 people for doing basic tasks like not sailing broadside or ... breathing. You're supposed to +1 people for doing something cool, does that happen 7 times a day?

    Dreadnoughts need an AA Buff

    @ManuelElMenthol Don't taunt the enemy CV to make them attack you, they'll know something is up, just act cool, don't be like "lolol I'm Texas come at me bro" - Don't say anything. Either their CV is bad, he won't know what you are and will feed you planes (100+ plane kills in Texas is *possible) Or if the CV is good, he could strike you but it would be too costly, very inefficient, he won't come for you. In Texas you actually hope the CV comes for you because racking up piles of plane ribbons is really good XP and credits.

    Dreadnoughts need an AA Buff

    I was joking about the AA skill by the way, trash skill, not even worth it on the best AA ship in the game. Don't give up priority target for 10% more AA. You want this build and auxiliary armaments mod 1 to prevent your AA mounts breaking from HE spam. If you don't have Halsey or Doe and use a regular captain, you want this build and auxiliary armaments mod 1 Reason : Gun feeder is worth it on Halsey/Doe - It's worth switching to HE to blap destroyers if you can switch in 7 seconds. It's not worth switching if switching takes 15+ seconds. Good luck captain, I wish you many thousands of plane-shot-down ribbons, you alone can make low tier a better place We salute you for your sacrifice

    +1 becomes meaningless if you had unlimited amounts, so does -1 because people barely care about karma now, if everyone had thousands of karma, people would not care at all for -1

    Dreadnoughts need an AA Buff

    Bro yubari does 150 dps + 50% from DefAA = 225, that's good for low tier but texas does 800. Yubari AA feels good because unlike other ships at that tier, it can kill planes. Texas is totally different, in that thing you spawn and go "Oh god, yes, there's a carrier, COME FOR ME, DO IT, STRIKE ME"

    It puts USS Texas on the creditcard bill, or else it gets BTFO by planes again

    Dreadnoughts need an AA Buff

    You asked for low tier dreadnoughts with good AA, the last ship in the game that melts planes just so happens to be a dreadnought and it's $5. All the other ships in the game haven't been shooting down planes since many years at this point. The only reason USS texas "is allowed" to have this good AA is because the efficiency of AA was halfed for all ships a long time ago, thing is, Texas AA was so disgusting, even reducing it in half was not enough to stop it shredding weegee's beloved planes. And they couldn't reduce Texas's AA by more because premium. Texas is and always will be the exception to the sacred rule "Thou shallt not destroy airplanes" I can't be bothered to play a round and record it but here look You thought they swapped texas for warspite as the free ship for new players to give you a better ship? No. They swapped it because Texas kills planes, it was breaking the sacred rule thou shallt not destroy plane.

    Dreadnoughts need an AA Buff

    I mean just look at it, it's covered in AA mounts, where do the sailors even walk, there's no room on the deck, there's AA mounts on top of the main battery too. They're all squishy mounts though, HE spam breaks them easily so get the +100% HP mod in slot 1. I don't play it anymore because I don't like low tier but if I would play low tier, I would only play this thing, CVs only go for this if there's nothing else alive. I would not play any other low tier ship because every other low tier ship is CV food, your only purpose is target practice for the CV player, you play low tier for someone else's enjoyment, not in USS Texas. Protip : Div with a buddy in a T4 CV

    Dreadnoughts need an AA Buff

    Continuous AA damage on the texas is four times the Orion. It's not even close. Texas doesn't care about CVs. It's the last ship in the game that lets you pretty much ignore carriers, T4 or T6, doesn't matter, they get one drop and that's that. It's all short and medium range though, don't think you can provide cover for friendlies, but planes won't bother you, bad CVs will melt, good CVs will only strike you if you're the last ship alive.
  22. COPlUM

    A simple question.

    But you do want OP ships, Hizen is incredibly average at T9 and it was cheap for a T9BB. Be honest with yourself, you weren't interested because it's not a Musashi or a Georgia. There's no shame in this, some people never buy premium stuff, some people buy all the premium stuff, some people buy what appears to be overperforming in the right hands. Hell, I know ppl that buy premiums because they look cool. I did not want Hizen because it is balanced and so did you.

    Dreadnoughts need an AA Buff

    You can even bully CVs in texas, I parked mine next to two CVs once without shooting them, they didn't even bother to fly planes off the deck anymore, probably because they didn't want to give me 100 plane shot down ribbons after I bullied them.

    Dreadnoughts need an AA Buff

    If you insist playing BBs at low tier and really hate planes, you can get USS Texas I guess, T5 premium. It's $5 or something because they gave it away for free for many years. Add the AA gunner skill and AA flags for 400 short range AA DPS and 400 midrange AA DPS, that's montana's continuous AA in short and midrange, at T5. Also use Auxiliary arm mod 1 to double the HP of your AA mounts, main guns are tanky as hell, they don't break, AA guns break easily, double their HP. If there's one low tier ship that can make average CV players piss off it's really that thing. The thing with texas is bad/average CVs their planes will evaporate, good CVs know what the USS Texas is and they won't come for you unless they have to. Either way, USS texas lets you play low tier BBs and while CVs can still spot you and take no damage, they can't attack you without their planes evaporating.
