I never said my intention was to force people to do stuff. I am a dd captain highly dependent of my team. I need proper ways to communicate fast and efficiently . If i dont know what people are gonna do i cant back them up.| If they dont know what my intentions are,they cant position themselves accordingly to assist me capturing a flag or aggressively spotting an enemy dd and killing it fast.

If you on the badtsuharu atm,be patient and focus on getting the fubuki. It gets way better there.The transition from the yolo t3-5 game style to the more conservative of t6-8 is a slow and painfull one. Tips: -Work on your positioning -Dont rush on cap zones.Let the gunboats do that and assist them when able to. -Torp only when the enemy ship is moving vertically in from of you or parallel to you. -If he is moving parallel to you but slightly away torp a bit infornt of the indicator -When you expect them to change course also shoot a salvo 2-3 predictions before cause he might slow down. -Dont be afraid to shoot on their nose if you have 3 tubes.Tight spread.1 on indicator,1 slightly left,1 slightly right.You will probably score a hit if he does not change course. -Preventive strikes on passages and corners.Even if nothing is spoted.1 out of 20 you are gonna get a lucky hit/kill. -When applying pressure to enemy team,shoot 1 salvo each 30 seconds. -Watch youtube videos and see what people do and score hits. -Dont expect people sailing straight after t6-7. -Most important , learn how and where to position your self. -If you have to decide whether to chase a lone target on the edges of the map and help your team or cap,never go with the lone target.Unless there is strategic reasoning behind that. -Communicate with your cv.He can clear enemy dds so you can cap and move cruisers out of your way so you can flank.Do that in time and not last minute. -Read the terrain.Use it to your advantage. -Dont be afraid to slow down or completely stop and wait. Give it time,notice your mistakes and work on them. Have fun!

The way i understand the game so far, the problem is that the only ways to counter dds are : -A great cv captain -Proper fleet positioning and -More than 2 cruisers on each side. If we are talking about random battles second point is out of the equation very fast. Point 3 comes down to matchmaking and game design decisions (I have no experience with cruisers but seeing ppl whinning i assume there should be some , even small , fire behind the smoke. And point one,well its not that very often really. DD role especially on high tiers is to scout,smoke friendlies,cap,apply pressure,do damage. In that order. Which cant efficiently happen when you have a clusterfuck of 5 dds. Best fun in games i had so far was with 2 or 3 dds on each side where i could properly fulfill all of my roles. Thats the reasoning behind the last suggestion. Take note , that it comes from an exclusively ijn dd tier 8, so far, captain.

Keep playing. Its epic! Specially when you are forced into a brawl If you manage to get to hatsuharu before the new ships arive , for the love of god, DONT get dissapointed.Its gets way way way better with the fubuki

I didnt even read the comments. Its not spamming.Its called: -Area denial -Preventive torps on known paths and corners -And guess shots. Friendly advice : improve your understanding of the class.
