OP asked if anybody got 5*

As soon as a kill 'IJN' etc goes up, nobody takes the target nation out because they know as soon as they are spotted its going to turn into ....

A potential solution to camping Battleships
Fat_Maniac replied to M0bius_One's topic in General Discussion
Like PUBG? Its the current fashionable thing to do in games at the moment, but it wouldn't work in WoWS. No WG have to convince players that pushing forward - at the right time - of course is worth the risk, either by moving away from the simplistic damage means prizes model, or making damage harder to achieve from max range. -

But then not every battle is fun and engaging. -

Oh God no. Being HE spammed by a target you cannot see is just cancer, and leads to people playing more to farm XP and credits and working less as a team. And the person receiving all the HE love has no counter, which as this is a game just should not happen. However adjusting visibility after firing might be an acceptable way to achieve this. -

Which is why I think some BB drivers don't push. They know they should, but hey have through experience found that when they do their team just runs behind them. so they no longer push. When it happens to me I just slow down, and try to angle the best I can and take as many as I can with me. -

Not sure you could do this. Some cruisers need range just to remain competitive and survive. -

But thats just it. the BB doesn't have to lead from the front, they just have to move up with the rest of the team to support them. Ideally in a perfect world DD's lead to spot, backed up by cruisers with the capital ships following up and providing the big guns. -
On this we can definitely agree. A T5 CV matched against a T6 in a double CV game is unfair.
-
But with no manual drops at T5, a bit of situational awareness and WASD hax means torp dodging isn't that hard. And how many double CV matches actually occur at T5 and T6, and in how many of them do the CV's actually work togther? The only times I think I see double CV frequently is if there is a specific mission objective up that can best be achieved in a CV.

My solution for camping BB's, is to adjust dispersion. At the moment dispersion is a linear progression with range. Change this so it's not, make it an exponential function so that dispersion gets much worse the longer the range. BBabies can sit at max range if they want, and try and snipe all they want, but they are going to have a harder time hitting you. OR Break this games emphasis on more damage equals more XP and credits. -
Came across this ... 751189hamburg on flamu's discord. It gives you a free Bismark collection container. Works on EU only.

Too few CV players in the player total population, so I'm afraid WG have no reason to listen to you, no matter how reasoned or sensible your arguments might be. Instead i think they want to come up with something new to excite and attract non CV players to try them.
-
^THIS^ and .... To be anything other than a spectator, the rest of the team, needs more than ever to work together as a team. Anybody yolo'ing or sailing on their own will very soon find themselves as fish food.

I remember Sub_Oct saying a few months ago in an interview, that as part of 'internal testing' and prototyping they did bring missles into the game to see if they could make them work. Apparently they were alot of fun but totally unsuitable for WoWS.

Maybe they have taken the RMB away so they can use it for something special later. Carrier rework for example

With the US cruiser split due soon. it got me thinking about tier 6 operations. At the moment Cleveland is one of my favorite ships to take on the T6 operations, great DPM with an IFHE commander, and of course great for shooting down the bot planes. Whenever one of the OPs with lots of carriers was up you could almost guarantee to see a Cleveland in your team line up. So my question is, When Cleveland moves to T8, what is going to be the best ship to replace her with?
-
DOH ! Good job I'm going to get my eyes tested again soon then :-)

I'm pretty sure, watching Flamu on Twitch yesterday, he has his right mouse button mapped for AP shell selection. So it must still be possible.

Ta, just posted this too lol found it on Flamu's discord -
How would YOU design U-boat gameplay?
Fat_Maniac replied to Enduro_Biker's topic in General Discussion
Too slow to be player controlled - you could implement them as bots patrolling particular grid squares in Operations for example.
