SkyBuckFlying - Defender of the one true CV loadout - Strike Ranger - Creator of the legendary 'X-Files' series - watch and be prepared to be shocked, stunned, and amazed by the lack of game mechanic knowledge. Here is a classic example - - Wearer of the ultimate Tin Foil Hat - the paranoia is strong in this one. I only know about this legend of the community because my son used to play WoWS before I started and he kept showing me his posts and videos. He was and probably still is a right royal pain in the butt, but I wish he was still allowed here to entertain us. Live long and prosper, SkyBuckFlying.

Ohhhh. That's where I've been going wrong. I thought when a BB player shouts out for intelligence data, that was when I'm supposed to tell him to stop throwing HE at broadside targets.

The answer really is simple, she starts with 19.8km range and can be upgraded to 21.8. People play her at long range to avoid torps and HE spam, whilst still being able to shoot at virtually anything on the small maps, without having to think about what is coming at them.

^THIS^ along with reload booster, and concealment booster

That's the point though isn't it. WG have given a ship which they say is very situational, but has BB guns on a cruiser with Russian rail gun arc and velocity. too the very best players in the game. They are exactly the people who know how to get the very best from the ship, so making it so 'stronk' in the first place only makes it worse for everyone that has to face them.

Not many battles but definetly appearing OP https://wows-numbers.com/ship/3760109008,Stalingrad/

I assume you mean NCC-1701

Konig Albert - go look at the saloon room at the back of the ship, behind the two 2ndry guns, Portrait of King Albert on the wall, wooden cabinet on one wall with a drinks tray complete with glasses and decanters. Hipper - the lines are just lovely. And Warspite - The Grand Old Lady.

A great big cruiser with big HP and Russian bias BB guns, and only give it to the top players, oh wait .......

Then prepare for a very very tough time. The only team work you will get usually in a random battle is if you are in a div. It's ok in chat to ask 'Where are we going?' If someone shouts back a cap zone or two. you know which way at least one person on your team is going to go. However that by no means that everyone else wants to go the same way. You just have to go with the flow and see where your team goes and more importantly where the enemy goes. But if you are someone who wants to shout at your team telling them to go to a cap zone or spam the minimap with squares, or complain about no team work etc etc, you are going to end up with a chat ban and no karma (not that karma means anything). Stop worrying about everyone else on your team and concentrate on what you should be doing in your own ship. And never ever fire torps that have any chance of hitting a friendly. If they land on them, it's your fault. nobody elses.

Yes but they didn't have GPS, so ship positions were not known with pin point accuracy

There will be skill, in navigating thru the AA bubbles and knowing when to attack

Sub _Oct said he didn't want a limit on CV's in battle if they could get to that with balance. But I don't see how they can 3 Cv's 9 planes x 4 runs on a single target. That just sounds OP to begin with

@Sub_OctavianThe concept shown in the video looks good, really really good. I just hope it can be balanced correctly, so that CV's don't dominate matches, and multi CV div's or coordinated CV game play in a battle doesn't become over powered, i.e. 2 or more CV's in a battle attacking the same target, in a similar way to current CV game play where all squads can attack the same target.

Given the datamined images of RN CV's from PTS only listed 5 CV's, does that mean CV's will start at T6? Guess we might be about to find out.

Feck pitchforks. If this is bad I see a full scale invasion of Cyprus and St Petersburg

And delete this too @MrConway I missed the thread that was already started. Not having a good day!

Well the portal thread is up, but for those that are on phones etc. Twitch 17:00 CEST today we get to see the CV rework.

Oh God here it comes. WG I really hope you did good, because so many people have been waiting a long time for this

Bugger double posted. Some body please close this one @MrConway

I have to laugh every time a clan mate takes GZ out, he always gets reported and abuse in chat.

Let me guess. You were in a CV?

Post Scriptum 50 vs 50 tank battles :-) If they ever do ships, like that other title that does ships and planes but is run by an organisation worse than WG, it would be fun I think A campaign mode with huge fleets might work in WoWS, and give CV's realistic flight times etc. On a big big map

Now now, you know it's because you are already an ST
