Id also drop SSE... ive never used it on my RN CLs. RPF can be really nice, so you might wanna consider that one

Had @OttoZander with his Unicum division on our side... lets say, the match went the way you would have expected with such a setup on one side But man was i pissed with the noobprotection thunderstorm Herpderp dispersion ftw, cant punish broadside because muh realism

Ctrl+x locks on bearing Shift+x locks on a specific point on the map. Neither is useless btw

Ofc they need to find ways to milk the average pleb for more money. Detection change doesnt make any money, only makes players happy. Cant have that

Because we are talking about WG here Damage saturation is a horrible thing for RN CLs in certain situations

1. No, overpens ALWAYS deal damage, even if the area is saturated. Just for you, here is training room test from 5 mins ago: Pens deal no more damage to Yamato Bow. Shoot smaller part, overpens still deal damage. 97200 damage to Yamato bow only. Replay attached if you wanna see for yourself. 2. BB AP pens can still deal 0 damage to DDs, depending where the shell detonates. Overpens always deal damage. 20190610_163029_PGSC106-Nurnberg_33_new_tierra.wowsreplay

played couple of games Alaska yesterday - didnt feel any different. Sometimes really good, sometimes meh, which is normal for a BC. Hitrate didnt change, had ~30-34% yesterday, while my average is ~35%.

Well, in a sense of angling ofc lowtier BBs work for learning it. But the area which can bounce shells is pretty big on those. When you play something like a New York in T7 MM, you basicly cant angle, they will just overmatch your armor. Best bet is to not get close, show some broadside so they aim at your citadel. When they shoot, turn in and bounce with your belt armor. Here some example lowtier BBs: As you see, most of them have Bow/aft with thin plating, thats where they can get overmatched by BB AP. Okto is a real tank, its covered in thick armor every except small the small parts Bow and Aft. Orion has a little more of that thin armor, so if you sit bow in, you will easily eat a lot of damage. And Kongo is pretty squishy for most parts but the center. At T6-7 this looks a bit different however: Bayern has still really thick armor, but can get overmatched at upper Bow/Aft sections. NM can bounce certain BB shells, but will get overmatched everywhere except the Armor belt. Same for Nagato, where the bulges are you can bounce, but elsewhere not. But really depends what BB is shooting you. NM can bounce itself f.e., but gets overmatched by a Bayern. Nagato can overmatch itself, but can bounce Lyon. 25mm armor gets overmatched by >358mm caliber, and 27mm armor by >386mm.

Midtier BBs can hardly "brawl" as they usually have either some places of armor, which gets overmatched, or even basicly everything! German armor works best at T6-7 where almost all other BBs are extremely squishy. T8+ is a different story again, as they basicly cant overmatch each other, except for Yamato/Musashi. Lowertier BBs usually have more armor all around, but are vulnerable at the upper bow, so you shouldnt sit bow in with them. Have a look in port at the armor model: If plating*14,3 > caliber, you cant overmatch.

Most players need a rebalance in their head instead Simply not possible to win if 5 ships camp in the back in the heal circle... or half sit there, and the other half already yoloed to their death in first wave. Average player has become so abysmal over the years But with the lack of OPs, i also believe, that most good players dont play OPs anymore, so no wonder that teammates are so bad. I rather start an OP with 4 guys and nail it for better rewards, than sit there with 6 randoms and get nothing in return.

2 most useless ships survived on our team: DD and CV. Totaly useless the entire game

eew, i hated it, after 1 game For me, i liked NY and NM, but thats long time ago, i dont think they are that good anymore these days. Colorado i "skipped" because i got the NC from a Container. NC is awesome if you can handle the slow shells, and they hit like a truck. Iowa and Monty are good too, and for Monty i definetely think its worth going for (and NC as a keeper too)

Dynamo and Cherryblossom are supposed to return soon afaik. Hope so, those are my 2 favorites

Nice Alaska game to start the day, even 53k spotting damage lol Atlanta reversing broadside from cover, oh you are so kind Got an SC after that with Also quite nice

Are you trolling?

eeeh, you assume, he does understand what TAM 1 actually does Thats why i was pointing at Minotaur having Hydro (which has a range >3km), but that didnt land

If it would be more enjoyable, id play more. Back when i started, i could play several hours. Now its usually 3-4 games. mostly have to quit because my blood pressure might pop something in my brain If we are talking about how demanding it is, depends really on the individual battle. Sometimes not so much, sometimes it hits you right away and you start shaking because of the hardcarry

You are rushing a ship, which has 16 torps sitting in smoke with a BB, which doesnt have Hydro. And the Cruiser even has Hydro, so he was even a bad player by having hydro not active or on CD while sitting in his smoke. I cant stop facepalming If you shoot, the ship in smoke can see you if your smoke firing detection is within his range.

Highest failure rate for Russians? You go to Gulag now

Probably WGs tactic: Make changes so can sell all Premium CVs (depending on which is best ) It already being a good chance is enough to get it scrapped. WG doesnt do good changes

Easy Baltimore tanking And i had plently health left as you can see. Nice to have 27mm Bow against max 380mm BB guns But they somehow realized it, and a couple of them started spamming HE at me

Ive said that back when they were thinking about changing BB AP vs DDs.... When you can you lose the entire damage because module or saturation, Overpens are still much better because of consistency. Not to mentions some nations which have so little more HE damage, that its basicly irrelevant too

I also feel, that like 50% of the players recently are actually bots. There is no way around it, they behave like Coop bots really. And if you look the stats, basicly everytime they have <1k or <1,5k battle with 4x% WR. Half the teams are filled with those players - how does that make any sense? Why would we suddenly get flooded with new players (who all suck ofc?)

Well, let me get this one thing out first: Whether you are offended or not, when someone is flaming you when playing is up to you - we cant help you with that here. The only thing, which can prevent that, is if you improve your playing. But you are never safe from abuse, i think everybody gets attacked at some point. Ive got insulted so often just for playing certain ships.... You can learn to laugh it off tho, especially when you kill them Also, you say you felt offended by what i wrote - fair enough, but you saying, WR is basicly luck is also kinda offensive towards players, who have invested time learning the game and are better players. You basicly say, they arent good, they are just lucky. Ok, now back to WR and such. I took Gneisenau, because its a ship you and I both played, so its easier to compare. I tried to show you relatively easy, why there is a difference in WR simply by looking at some basic numbers. AFK WR depends heavily on which ship / tier you would go AFK in. Worst is probably still CV, followed by DD -> Cruiser/BB, and certain tiers should be worse (7/9/10), because they are toptier often/all the time. So being AFK in a T10 ship would leave a huge gap in damage output between your teams f.e. But i think 30-35% is a good indicator (CVs might be lower). But lets just say, ~3 out of 10 games are a win no matter how you play. Vice versa, 3 out of 10 games are also guaranteed losses. Seeing, how the best solo players can get roughly 70% WR (again, CVs can reach up to 80% Solo). Which leaves us with 4 games out of 10, where your personal skill matters. And then you can boost your WR by playing divisions or certain tiers/ships. But that can be checked by looking at the persons stats. But i think, you are going at this from the wrong direction: You want people to change, that they abuse others less in an internet game - thats not gonna happen. Many people act the way they do, because they are anonymous. You dont know them, and they dont know you. Thats why you shouldnt take it too serious either imo. Idc that much when people start bitching. If they cross a certain line, i report them to Customer support, but other than that, i ignore it or have a laugh The easier way, to get less abuse would be, to try to improve yourself by learning the game. A lot of people are willing to give advice here in forums, if you open a thread, post a couple of replays and ask what you could do better. If you are nice, others respond the same way, so you wont get abused. Ofc that includes that you really want to learn and try to get better

I bought it right away back then when i had the coal (with coupon, since i didnt have steel back then). Havent played it THAT much, but its had its uses (farm some missions in coop, tiny bit randoms, bit ranked/CBs). I think tho, a small radar buff would be nice after the concealment nerf, atleast 9km imo... Dont use coal on much other stuff than ships, only finished the Bismarck and Vive la france collections. Now at almost 200k, waiting for yoshino
