Because I don't mind losing a battle. or two. I'm in a war game, so, I win some and I lose some. If you (you, as in general) think otherwise you are delusion. That and despite of overall results, there's always the silver lining. But I do mind the way I or my team lose a battle. This weekend went well for me, in random, go figure, I managed to keep a constant level in almost all the battles, I did good for a player like me, I did my job often, I held my flank or reinforced a flank in need. I had fun. Didn't have one of those instant meltdown teams. But I had my share of defeats today, but they didn't bothered me. Today's low point was a victory. 1) part The dd in our flank (left) was talking too much in chat (spamming the hotkeys) but didn't move, after I tried to ram him he move along side by side with me (I was half speed). He didn't spot properly. 2) Part. Our flank (the dd, me in the buddy, a emerald an two bbs at the back) the cap in front of us was red we (me and emerald) had nothing to shoot at. Then one of our bbs was sunk, the other take off for greener pastures. All that remain in that flank was me, the dd and the emerald. I sunk a Nuremberg, I bullied a york while the emerald went to cap that point. 3) Part By that time our flank didn't achieve nothing, and our team (right flank) started to ping us. They did the heavy work. the dd was sunk I was sunk by an NY or NM after I relieve 50k of it's health the emerald finished my job, sunk the York, and that bb after capping The dd wasn't as useless as I first thought to be, the emerald was good. Their smokes were precious. But that initial delay, and the reluctance in the first moments throw off the dynamic of that flank. p.s.- A strange thing happen today, my buddy's rudder was being knocked out often, made me check several times if I was in LaGal .

I was thinking about bbs, but... oh, right, I totally forgot about those ones. I don't have a single cruiser with heal, but I often see the battle after I'm sunk and I think heals like the graf spee it's a gimmick, very small to make it combat effective again, my impression it's for some reason it's there and all that makes it's to delay the bitter end. Note: I don't know how many heals Spee have nor I know what happen before I was sunk. So it's just an impression might be wrong. But small heals for lower tier ships etc, it's just... hem, because I think the inexperience and the ships itself would not gain much.

you are right, I had to check I only saw the 100%. But. free xp and xp I think it's the most important. Having free XP 100% in a weekend it's very welcome, because normally it comes in so low numbers if you don't use signals, premium account and other stuff like that.

Honestly I can't see nothing wrong with your battles apart the defeats. stats wise you are maintaining and even growing your average in experience and damage. This days, who cares about WR? weekends are the proof that WR it's volatile. Just don't let that sinking feeling of always losing get to you and you are golden.

Or that. A universal heal for all. (the same heal, same number of heals, same cool down time, well two sets, standard and premium ). the consumable would be the same regardless the tier and ship type . g.e. A heal would recover 100% of fire damage and 10% of citadel damage in all ships from t1 to t10. that would put all ships in the same Plainfield. I think you know what I'm trying to say I would not worry about confusion or lack of knowledge of the player base in general. After all we are talking about survival instinct, and that's is a given to every living being.

why not remove heals all together?

That will never work. After spending a lot of time in quizzes, one could excel in the theory and fail in the practice Personally, I never bothered with the repair costs thing and I still don't pay any attention to it, it's just numbers passing by at a speedy pace. Time to times I look up to the corner of the screen, yeap the numbers are growing, so who cares about repair stuff?

from what I've eared about the year of the cv, I don't feel like it.

I meant, I agree with you a lot. Yes, you are right, but still, BBs are kind of meh. And they will never substitute the cruisers. And if you give it a go in cruisers, you will suffer at the beginning but then you will improve. Look at me, my favourite tier so far and by a long shot it's t6, I'm a cruiser main, and despite all that's being said about t6 it's the tier where there are the most good silver ships up to t7 (I can speak for t7). And despite MM, lemmings parade, etc, I am able to improve. Slowly but surely, I don't have special things like signals, or premium consumables on (but I just started to use them ). I don't see why you can't. Just give it a go and you will see. I recommend Budyonni. You will like it . No. the most I risk it's my own ship, I have one BB, more or less one month ago I decided to grind that crap again, because with the current pace I was in I would never reach Bismark. (the King of the Atlantic Ocean). While with cruisers I could switch flanks several times in a battle ( I think it was with Kuma where I switched the most, 4 or 5 times in one battle, going defence and making counter attacks 2 or 3 times in each flank). With BBs I couldn't even keep up with the cruisers... in operations, let alone in random. While with cruisers I can kite away from the frontlines or away from a flank, the bb can't do crap. So, yes with a cruiser you can risk more than a BB. Being more forgiving I had more productive battles with 4km torps than with BBs, just because they are slow as [edited]. Most of the times when I reach the frontlines to tank, the cruisers or dds on that flank are already scattered of fleeing and do not give support. Do You now how it's going at 25knots full steam ahead and do 30k damage in the end? Just because all you end up it's with the left overs? Either in ops or random? But that will change with my new Uber cruiser. Risking the team's change of winning... Lemmings parade Passive players Just in other day I was in a battle near the red cap, I wanted to hunt the cv first before I entered the cap but they ask me to enter the cap, I knew it that wouldn't work but I was the closest ship so I entered the cap anyway and... didn't worked. All I did was to reveal my position to the cv, our cv didn't had any more planes, I could hang on to that cap, I would held against a cv or the other three ships but not against all of them at the same time. Just yesterday I was in a battle with two cvs each side, I saw a green Cleveland by my side and decided to stick with him, result? I Did good damage, assisted cap twice (I was in a cl) Tanked against two bbs, sunk a dd, contesting a cap (I was in a cl) and we lost. We had the same numbers of dds, cvs and bbs. I just don't know what happened, I was too focus in us, me and in the cleve. Just to you have an idea. Shards map we started capping A then we capped B, after that went to C and we returned to defend B. With the BBs you can't do that. Risking the team's change of winning... right.

in position and reposition there are not.

I played today and there's a mission that gives you 100% each time you play a battle. So, it's better than 1x100%, if you ask me.

Are you still a BB main? I have read your posts for the last couple of days, and honestly I don't have much more to say than you or much to don't agree with you in many issues. I only think you give too much importance to meta stuff. (once you said that the only reason you don't play cruisers it's because the current meta). And you are missing out something as long you keep this opinion. BBs are not that forgiving and cruisers can be forgiven, in different fields, of course. Just saying.

DeGrasse.

I just finished correcting myself.

How about a premium camo on your favourite t6 or t7 ship? To play operation it's better if you have a faster ship, while 25 knots (my Bayern) it's fine in raptor mission and in Newport mission in the others you will struggle a little to keep up. Just saying. If you want t8, why not slap a premium camo on your Amagi? credits wise you will get 50% more than you already have (captain's). After that and in top of that if you want some variety then go for a premium. Didn't get in t8 yet myself, so I can't advice on that.

Today was crap for me, seven defeats and two victories then I turned to operations a defeat and a 3 stars victory. ( I had to rush 2 cruisers, two bbs to sink the last cv and only that one was sunk with half of the team dead) Yesterday was good, despite, the defeats were much more than victories I was able to maintain myself between 40-70 k the day before crap for me. the day before that was good for me (just in two games I sunk 3 bbs). So, you win some and loose some. I don't mind the defeats it was in a defeat that I broke my previous personal record. But what I can't really understand and frustrate me a lot it's teams that melts in minutes. Like the battle starts, in the third minute nobody lost a ship, 5 minutes later we are only four against a full team minus one or two.

came on, they aren't that bad, and it's only for a moment . More satirical animals, pls. or women, naked women, pin-up girls. But someone could improve that, now I hardly get to see the name who sunk me or from who I sunk. And if the intention it's to show who sunk a person, you have to combined the name to the emblem because now it's just an animal that we see. And it's very few yet.

keep counting. ahahahah before the fat cat Christmas mission. look the battles I've got and I got 1. try your luck.

I have no screenshot. Today was a bad day, so I took out my unfinished uber cruiser. Neighbours map (great, that God forsaken place) I Spawn in front of A, so I swung around and went for C. I linked with the right flank. Me, two Queens, a Lagal and a King George V. In the C surroundings one of the queen was sunk, so to not lose the momentum I went and take his place and starting to tank for my flank against a Cleveland, an Omaha and a New Mexico, After we sunk a Bayern. I was able to scare them off of the C cap, I was sunk +- two minutes later. Result? King George behind a island, the Queen with it's as.s sticking out from the map border, the Lagal seemed a headless chicken, no one capped.

the thing is, to play the Cleveland you have to play the Omaha, No they aren't, not all I've been in killer whale ops where I did literally nothing just because I couldn't keep up with the team, even going strait ahead to not loose any more speed I only got 20 kish in the end (more than once, Bayern 21 knots). Stock hull with a low skilled captain it's bad it's the different between doing 20k or 30k or doing 130k to 150k And then they are those ships. please tell me the difference between Molotov and Kirov? If one drags the team down the other drags it too. While Duca D'osta can not fair well in all the ops, all the battles, can you imagine what GC could do? All I'm trying to say, is, t7 have it's own operations, t6 also, so, put t5 back on line. In it's own operations if need it.

Well. what about having different emblems for different ships? as in real life? we could have the anchor in all ships plus a second emblem. E.g. All my ships could have the Anchor But my bbs could have the sloth, buddy's the bee, and son Every policeman have his badge but different units have it's own emblem, so the military.

Yes. And I was one of them. No, I'm not (asking) Most of the ships in part of operations have bots that t5 ships can handle just fine, you have chikumas, tenryos, kolberts and such. the new t7 operations have one t6 ship (Kato) and lots of phoenix, omaha, and such. Maybe when they were t5+t6s in ops the thing was more balance towards the t6 than to t5. They could rebalance or make new operations for t5s.

Indy? Training room? Sorry I can't help it. No need for that, I think my ant's .22 revolver can punch holes in Indy like the cheese it is.

And that's why I don't like Pensa. Sucks in close to Mid range. Not my style. I'm more a brawler than anything else.

Not for me, 152 or 155 mm would be better guns. I definitely don't like the Pensa guns. Fun ship? Ok, but then again not for me. There's a lot of things that you can't do with that ship.
