@Tungstonid are u actually talking to me with your remarks?

With all due respect.While normaly I would agree with your statement, it doesnt fit in case of the RN BBs. What we have in this case is "Lets make a line of BBs that outperform every other BB in most stats and lets see how it turns out". You dont need to study rocketscience to know beforehand, how it turns out. Also: supertesters said before the release, that they will be OP. WG didnt listen.

I have come to the same conclusion.

And for the third time you are confiming - conq is out of sync / OP. I wasnt argueing Zao isnt balanced - just that its obsolete with Conq around. Which u seem to confirm with that statement. Oh btw. What are you taking about? a) since when are you observing every game with a Conq in it? Do you really try to claim this? How can you make a statement like that? btw. only yesterday a Conq tanked bow on a group of our BBs while me and everyone else were running, whining and shaking out fists in anger no actually what happend was that our BBs focused him, while I set 5 fires on him (after 2 he DCPed, then I gave him 3 permanent) meanwhile... his health went up from 40k to 60k. But yea since I dont own a Conq... I cant comment on situations like this, right? Must have been a dream.

See? again you are proving the point ppl are making. What are HE-based cruisers suppose to do? Donskoi, Zao, Chapayev, you name them. They are obsolete - this has been mentioned also. Why play a Zao? Half of Conq HP pool, cant tank like a BB, half of the fire chance, nearly same concealment, no superheal. So its cool Conq cant heal AP as much as fire/HE Dmg. Why you keep pointing that out? Its normal! It counts for every ship in this game. The last part of your post... Dunno if I really should answer to that. Ive seen many of your posts that cant be takin serious.

TBH - just another post proving that Monq is broken. You ask why? Have we ever talked about, that its possible to kill a Montana? a Kurfürst? a Missouri? Nah, there are no discussions that its possible to kill one of those or that someone is bragging that he killed one of em. Only now. So why is it so special what you did? I understand where you are coming from. Im mainly Cruiser also and when I take a RN BB to sea, I can finaly do the things, that cruisers fail in. All Im missing is the torps when I get really close in brwaling (WG, you listening?). Seriously - usualy when I have enough of facing RN BBs and their BS in high tiers, I do exactly what you mention - I take out the Orion and abuse it. And my stats show, that its broken compared to what I usualy do. I also feel the heat many times from opponents and I can totaly understand it. Only ship where im beein hated at the same is Fiji. But I cant get myself to play more then 2 rounds in this abomination. Its boring, doesnt take skill and I have the feeling im dumbing down & loosing skill playing it. You dont need situational awerness, you dont need to worry about damage taken, you dont need to worry about going 1vs1.

Man, I´d go eveb further. Look at everyone defending that ship or the entire RN BB line. They all play it, abuse it, it has become their most played ship with their best stats. There is not even one exemption, ive yet to see ONE person defending this ship that isnt abusing the shiat out of the RN BB line. Edit says: thinking about it, posts like the one you responded to (its not worth quoting imo), actually prove the point of the RN BBs beeing broken. Those ppl defending it, dont even realize, they add water to the mill.

@AmashPrevails dont even argue with that guy. You wanna know why he defends that ship? Just have a look at his stats. Only coincidence huh? Someone is afraid his Toy might be takin away from him. Cant let that happen now can we...

Within the next posts, ppl will tell you: -nothing wrong in the screen -both teams have the same amount of Tiers if you add them up -You are lucky cuz u can get more XP killing T10s -T10-players are usualy stupid so you again are lucky to be able to farm em -You are in fact whining cuz u lost and pull the mm-scapegaot-card - l2p -Its normal +/- 2 mm, if we would make +/-1 mm, Everyone would have to wait atleast 5 hours in queue always to be able to play. -You can do much better then playing T8 BBs cuz if u fire HE you will farm way more dmg cuz T10 BBs have more HP. Did I forget something?...

@SeeteufeI I think you missed Chapayev. They are the same as Minsk/Kiev imo so easy fix :)

100% agree, you can see this many times. I was thinking about, that there should be introduced something like an assist. Anytime a target is killed, the one who inflicted the most damage gets the assist + extra XP for that.

Aha interesting. Where does kill stealing then exist in your mind? In singleplayer games?

Yea sure, lets do this. Write me a private message, we can discuss all day. Its offtopic here anyway. But that is not what you really are interested in isnt it? You just wanna show the world your awesomeness. Waiting on that pm

Says the guy who reaches an astonishing 0,2 k/d and 33% WR when going solo in T8s Chapayev. @ghostbuster_ that is

@Tyrendian89 I count 7 T8s in the opponent team... Why do ppl ust those threads to pretend how awesome they are....

No, they just saw the oppotunity to tell everyone how awesome they are. Come on @ghostbuster_ tell us how you would pwn a tripple Yamato-divison with your Kirow if the matchmaking would only let you. We really wanna hear!

*sigh* @Capra76 is right on this one. If you would have a look at the servernumbers instead of blindly rageing you would see, that on T10 f.e. the numbers of matches played are in heavy favor of BBs. Cruisers are vastly outnumbered. So to fill those spots in the hightier matches, cruisers from lower Tiers. mosly T8, as that tier has a high number of Cruiser-matches played compare to other classes. Again, look it up. Btw: you admit it in your own post, that BBs are hightier, or who else do you talk about here? DDs or CLs with +2 Tier to you overmatching your bow? which one is it...

I maybe able to solve this, because I think I know the bug they are addressing. Had it once on Takao, I think it was turret no. 3. It kept cycling around in 360° which isnt possible anyway, while i didnt make a turn nor turned my other turrets to another side.

If your initial post would have been as polite as you write now, ppl would have taken a different approach towards you. You know, it is a game, yes. But a teamgame. Those 11 other guys in your team invest their freetime, same as you. Nobody likes losing. Thats why most ppl rather have teammates, that try. Maybe Co-Op is for you. Even if you play without patiance, the bots usualy lose.

We all (should) know by now, that if WG creates something new, they want it to be special or very strong in one way. They just dont want to create "just another CV". So obviously they have their minds set up, that the GZ-thing is the Stukas with their bombs. Now how are you going to balance a CV that lacks the Torpedos and only has Bombs? Ofc the bombs must make up for the lacking damage-output. And as a trade-off, that a GZ cant roam free, their fighters are weak. I see where WG is going with this. Dont get me wrong, im not defending this kind of "balancing", in fact, im against the creation of gimmicky-ships in general. A small thing I have to say I like about the GZ. Before, DDs could be deleted with one salvo, cruisers could be. Now a BB can be too. Maybe it will force down teamplay on some of those superstupid Hightier-BBs with their 38% WR.

Thats what I read also @viceadmiral123 The AP bombs on GZ test 1 are rediculously strong. Ive seen them taking of 98% of FdG health in one strike. If the trade off is,that your Fighters stink, then so be it. It will still cause problems in the hands of an unicum CV player if he faces a potato-carrier.

It goes both ways too. IVe had it a few, maybe 2 or 3 times, that I cant send send messages anymore (and before any one tries to be smart: no , i wasnt chatbanned ) The Chat seems still active but I cant type. I cant look at the Tab-stats either. This one i wasnt able to get rid of tho until the end of the round.

Yep, it was crazy. I got the replay if u want to see it yourself I can get it up... Agree. I always try to go with the current meta. There are missions right now for CVs? go with DFAA. Loads of missions / weeklys for DDs or something with torpedos? Slap Hydro on. I dont see any reason either, that cruisers shouldbt have both. Especially with the current overpopulation of BBs, which put cruisers in a tight spot.

Exactly. I agree, you dont need to pull magic or need rocketsciene to counter even a good CV - yet on public it doesnt happen. Another example shows that pretty good, happend to me also only a few days ago. Enemy had a 80%+ WR Hakuryu, we had a CV with something like 38% WR. So I knew crap was about to hit the fan. We had Missouri and Des Moines as best AA-Ships and I tried to tell them to stick together cuz of the CV thread. They didnt. Hakuryu first striked Missouri out of the game, next victim was Des Moines on the other side of the map. After that he could roam free.

I think competitive is on a total different page. There is teamplay involved to the max and there is a skilled CV-Player on the other side both are the best counters against a good CV.
