your response does rather typify the stupid prejudices in this game though, the latest being that everyone is playing thunderer at max range shooting only HE and these people are not worthy. It's utter balderdash IMHO

well no, but i do have to admit i'm trying to get 3x witherers in the Lion for the yamamoto campaign atm

This is yet another "nerf everything except me" thread. Too bad

OK, well overpen then. Either way with AP and a Konig you're rolling the dice for a very low chance of a big reward.

What relevance is the shell type if the guns miss anyway? The thing with low tier BBs is the gun accuracy is generally terrible, so HE can be preferable. When you finally land a shell only for it to ricochet.....

C'mon grandad, CV hate was a 2020 thing, now we've moved on to deadeye thunderers

Gosh, all this new Thunderer hatred. Maybe the whole point of pinkeye deadeye was to take the heat off CVs.

When you've shot down 7 or 8 planes from an FDR torp squad and the fourth (count em) strike still drops 10 torps. Gaaaah [Reaches for T2 dd]

And there was me thinking this was another FDR thread

I think on balance it's OK I mean we have CV's striking from far away DDs hiding in smoke radar CAs hiding behind rocks and now BBs on the edge of the map. Next Subs hiding below the surface then BVR weapons........... actually from the games i've seen it's not so different, usually one team holds back and one doesn't. this happened before, we just didn't have pinkeye deadyey to blame it on.

although that's not necessarily such a bad idea, the unintended consequences and induced behaviours will lead to more complaining forum posts. Not sure what they'd be exactly but... For example there's been some campaigns recently with missions to be in the top five in your team (win or lose) so many times. You could complete these in ranked So you only have to be the third worst on your team if you play these in ranked........

On topic, I think what you're seeing is not that save a star is a bad idea, more that xp is not necessarily given out in line with contribution towards winning. If that formula could be tweaked somehow it would be helpful.

Oi! I don't generally sit at back line. Harrumph But I do agree, gold ranked matches follow a very predictable pattern much as t5 Coop matches do, the only thing is you get more toxic chat. The thing with Gold is that the pink fluffy unicoms think it was created especially for them to protect them from having to play with the unwashed Everyone else thinks boom boom boom, steel + dubs, thanks very much. (well ok maybe not everyone.....)

Oi I got 4 kills and 80k damage in the Mikasa when it was on loan a while back. Just don't camp on the A line with it

Has anyone tried Deadeye on Kawachi yet?

Hello Can't say I've read the whole thread but........ If your guns have less dispersion you have to be more accurate with your aiming/hope the target doesn't change course or speed during shell flight To this extent more accuracy can result in fewer hits if either your aim is wonky or the target dodges. I tried out the A-line camping in thunderer yesterday. It was really boring. I suspect people will still close the range to get easier aiming and so that they enjoy themselves. Battleships are still more dangerous the closer they get. Also I took out my new Akatsuki for the fist time in the last game. Now I'm a terribletm DD player, but these captain skills must be awful as I managed to come top on the winning team and I didn't have any active skills on my captain at all! I guess everyone was struggling. I'll stop playing it now so as to preserve my perfect stats in it.

Ah the night match, enjoy

Did you have a power cut?

As title. Plz fix, super annoying

yeah that can happen but it's very rare and because of all the rubbish in chat, personally I often don't notice the helpful stuff until too late. Oops

I'd do two things: 1) Only allow people to give "reports" if they#ve given the same number of compliments 2) Disallow sunk players from writing in the chat. 90% of post sinking contributions in chat are along the lines of "you guys suck go play barbie" Which is obviously why they sunk and you didn't and contributes precisely nothing other than additional toxicity.

I conquered the known world

The exspurt players would still moan that they have to play dirty unwashedskilled players. Eurgh. PS: i agree, this would obvs act as a way of determining and sorting by win rate in Ranked.....just leave the rewards per number of wins there and maybe some rewards for reaching some milestone ranks.

Well i kinda agree, furrytaco is fun hawkins is a slave trader but ok visby is a pain to play kotovsky i sold as soon as i could it sucks new york will save grinding the previous 2 murican things

So the formula for completing this fast is: select missions for top kills pick a selection of lowish tier dds Select coop Yolo at the enemy and take out as many as you can (usually 1-3) repeat Each battle takes 5 minutes including loading time. Whoop!
