Doesnt mean same limitations stay in place for the "new old ops"

Def had an observation that when you are close to ranking out you tend to get teams that are, shall we say above average in difficulty to carry, also I dont really care for the honey smearing explanations, I played thousands of ranked battles in the last 6 years and I know what I see, MM in ranked is NOT completely random, period

T6 - all that are good now T7 - all that are good now T8 - CA/CL - Martel, Edin, even Albemarle and Haarlem might be ok for heal... Cleveland and Kutuzov should be fine, Mainz as well and ofc - San Diego, the mother of dakka of T8... - BBs . Massa also all sec spec german stuff, Atlantico might even be nice, Riche and Gascan might be a choice esp if Hermes keeps a dedicated slot for them - DDs stuff with heal might be viable, LeFanasque sisters and Akizuji might be ok-ish. rest meh - CVs Kaga, Enterprize and Hornet perhaps graf zep for some sec action here and there

No sensible armor (up to 25 or so mm) will help vs SAP and heavy HE rounds, she needs heal or smoke to make her viable...

She ll need a heal WG

U should get the ship you lack but only the WG devs really know

Same here, well most of them anyways, I did get few extra ones purely for looks through the years and even some event ones are not 2 bad...

If you have an ugly first camo leave the ship naked...

Dude you are not thinking about it from WG perspective, if you added the system you propose except for the skills and the current ship he is assigned for you would need to keep a list of ships commander was on for every and each commander anyone has in game, that would bloat the databases like crazy and WG servers are dodgy as it is, also cost for server space would be increased, so no that would not be a good idea IMHO and WG will never do it for aforementioned reasons

2 complicated they should just make retrain and respec 90% off 3-4 times a year and be done with it

I d say with current skills one needs 16pt for the RN CL line, rest is optional but you kinda want the extra hp, extra heal and ar

Dont play most of the superships so no need for special caps on them

No you missed the point, all ops will be playable in T6-8 and the bot composition will vary a bit based on team composition, so you will have Narai with T6, T7 and T8

Nope, the way I understand it You pick a T6-8 ship, and you get a random team and random op, ANY op

Nonsense in T6 ops same selection of ships that "work best" do so in ALL of them, yes in some selected ops other "second tier" ships can be viable pick as well but that still doesnt make them "top pick" by any means, it just means they work there if you really want to play them, not that they give any particular advantage compared to the best ships for ops... For instance - a decently fast sec spec BB works in any op, Leander works in any op as most CLs/CAs with either heal or good smoke do as well, CV that has good loadout for ops works in any of them, if one really wants to "play the op for ops sake" there is absolutely no reason to take other stuff then the best stuff, if its farming you again take the best you have to get most damage and do most kills... Only if you want to grind a specific ship and do so in ops the point might be valid but then again we are talking T6 here with even moderate bonuses you ll get through all the T6 ships in game in like a week ffs

TBH playing a single op for more then couple of times is boring as f, also the famous Narai farming aint what it was for years now, besides if we get hermes and cherry blossom back…

Thats not how MM works

I like that actually

No problem, many a T8 battleship will shred that Izumo no problem, also Enterprize ^^ T8 CVs in that op… We are the seven, judgment of Heaven comes to mind

The entire CV balancing is out of the windod, by large because WG is not ready to offer PROPER AA skills, they want meh stuff like 10%, 20% etc so everything is about equal, in socialism there was a term - uravnilovka, meaning everybody had to have about similar incomes and property or something had to be done… We need proper base AA and then modules and skills that buff it for instance - cruiser slot 3 module - +300% AA and tradeoff -30% main battery range and reload and similar with cap skills, make it possible to build into AA but reduce your efectivness in other areas…

@OP well when when one points out this game is full of toxic tu*ds and the said are being nurtured by WG one gets a chat ban for profanity, this is a good example why nobody takes WG seriously anymore

Just take Skokak, most fights in Rank and even CB will be deleting BBs and CAs that camp around and Shokaks AP bombs are excellent for doing just that… If you really have to get a prem take Kaga, she is easiest to play with and most forgiving of T8 CVs to learn with, also she does tons of fire damage which is good for income

You dont get nearly as much silver in ops as you do in pvp, only thing is you might be doing more damage there and if you cant do it in pvp you might get more in that way

Yep BUT it seems at some point they went over the treshold at which majority of even most hardcore whales said "scr*w this guys, I am going home" and reduced or stopped spending on their "events" and now the only solution to the freefalling revenue is shoveling more and more premium content with more and more extreme monetization schemes to try keep the quarterly bonuses rolling without any though about the next cycle and the fact fever and fever people they hope to lure in to replace the old salts will actually spend ANYTHING on this game let alone the amounts they hope...
