“We can see a lot of people dont like subs, what do you want us to do?” - Ideas what WG can do?
OldPappy replied to Tanaka_15's topic in General Discussion
Perhaps the simple solution is to listnen to 95-96% of the entire player base and remove the subs OR at the very least give them their own mode and see how many actually wants to play them or vs them. WG has never and will never balance such a class! (Looking at you cvs…) -

So... How to Mogador? (Does it show up yellow?? Don't know why if it does...) Got the Mogador but I am not doing well in it.. or that is I am doing ok in it but as probably shows by the winrate it's NOT going very well.. Mind you, I have been in the top 5 every game in it with maybe one or two exceptions. Average damage, xp and other PR stats are also quite ok in it. But the wins are lacking.... I have a blast in it though.... Captainbuild is: I am playing it very much as russian dds such as Tashkent, Delny etc. Long range HE spamming mostly. But the range of Mogador seems a bit too short for that to be really successful. But do I want to swap MBM3 in the sixth slot for longer range? Or just wait and get main battery and AA expert as next captain 4 point skill? So, turning to the all knowing forum for wisdom! :)

I just bought a token for 3,5 m credits and got the ship. A bargain. 🤷🏻♂️

Thanks! I have respecced to 20% further gunrange and it a lot better! Will watch the video and learn!😊
-
ty. I will try with this respec and see. It's getting a bit better right now, having won the last 4 battles in it.. But yes, I think you are right with the range! 12.8 km is too little. I want to be well outside KM secondary range. As it is i get peppered with their shells all the time breaking stuff and setting fires.. Thanks for the answer!
-
thank you The AA comes with the 20% range boost for that skill.. don't worry, I'd never waste points on the aa seeing it's broken rubbish.. Thank you for the link!

Excellent.. many thanks!

I did the first one, London, but how do I get to New York???

New Swedish Supership Dalarna
OldPappy replied to OldschoolGaming_YouTube's topic in General Discussion
So is Dalarnas AA better than Hallands? And we are hardly ”derping” around just to use surprise AA on the planes. The swedish dds are not the fastest exactly. But when opportunity arises. 😊 And neither are they - Halland at least as I do not know Dalarna - the ideal capping dds. I am normally torping/spotting and area denying firstly. -
A unicum player in any cv is a thing to fear. And otherwise engaged i too get smacked like a naughty child. But I have say that opening up with aa that far out and presenting a still broadside to any nakimov player - let alone trenlass - is not good. 😊 But yeah the whole cv thing is hard to bear. I get smacked too a lot and I am likely a worse dd player than you. I love playing Halland. 😀

Automatic ASW for CVs (Closed Testing)
OldPappy replied to FatherTorque's topic in General Discussion
You are probably right. Cvs and subs are WG humpty dumpty to be patched and tweaked and construed to make their square shape fit into a round hole no matter what! -
Automatic ASW for CVs (Closed Testing)
OldPappy replied to FatherTorque's topic in General Discussion
And we LOVE this fact! The single ONLY good thing about subs and now they will remove it!🙁 It has been the only fun thing in the cv/sub world to watch a cv being chased and torped without being able to do anything but run and pray! Hey! Just dodge! Oh right it has homing torps….😂😂😂😂 -
Man, we are on the same page today!!!😀 I agree. Its not hard. I can do it and I pretty much suck with cvs. (Normally only play them in coop for spotting missions. ) I play against them in every other game though and in all modesty I am good vs cvs! But when I am otherwise occupied, have a crappy (crappier than standard crap that is!) aa boat or in a bb or cruiser even new cv drivers can get damage in on me without too much effort. And considering all the unexperienced people out there you dont have to be a unicum to farm. (In my Halland? Yeah good luck with that and welcome to give me xp!😀)
-
I have considered the same but sofar I draw the line at subs but soon its gonna be: ”of you cant beat them, join them!!” and my soul be damned!!!

All long range HE spammer cruisers and bbs are not ideal picks for ranked unless you are good in them. But if you are good it doesn’t matter what ship you bring really. Specific for Yoshino and Zao if you are in a dd and you see one or both on your team you know there will be no close support. Pray to rn-gesus that they excell att aiming! Any lot-of-damage-but-over-time ships limits your team 7 out of 10 times. DM, Salem, Nevsky or Smolensk are much to prefer. From a dd point of view a correct handled Smolensk or Austin is your best buddy. This is all in my humble opinion. I play little ranked because I value my sainty after 3-5 matches per day!😂 So whenever I start closing into ranking out bronze I have left it too long and it is like a constant weekend….

So basically WG will continue dumbing the game down as enough players will never take the 3000 or so learning matches before buying a t9-t10 or supership and have a go. And the sad part is that there will always be enough people paying enough to make WG happy so they dont have to listnen to us ” moaning” backpeddlers who just want our game back. My core frustration is that I really, really enjoyed this game but it’s getting less and less fun for each patch and esch new gimmick shipline and each new update where WG just ignores 95% of the players. And I think that is why its getting more toxic.

Are there FRIENDLY subs????😳🤔
-
It’s bad when you fund yourself actually pleased that the sub on YOUR team is dead. 😂 And you feel a bit like congratulating the guy on the red team who sunk your teams cv. WG has really managed to bring the worst out in us one and all. (Oh except the 1% who persists in playing subs and keep moaning about why noone likes them. )

Yeah. Poor bastards. 🙁 If only they were hard to spot, or surprsingly tanky, or could launch torps with 0,5 sec arming time, or dissappear in the middle of your fleet or were impervious to hydros or had a speed of 30+ knots WHILE SUBMERGED. I think they might stand a chance then….🤷🏻♂️

What is your, currently available, ship to play?
OldPappy replied to Captain_Lootbox's topic in General Discussion
Lightning, Akazuki, Öland and Halland are always enjoyable! -
Ships that are a liability to your team in ranked.
OldPappy replied to Corpsetaker's topic in General Discussion
I often wonder how this is possible. To have that many matches without actually learning something from them. I am by no means a unicum and do my fair share of mistakes, but some of these players…..😱 -
T61. saying no more than T61. 😊
-
Useless as dds yes. As a light cruiser they are snipers and can be fun to play! But you need a match with 3-4 dds per side or it will be a hard game and your teammates will hate you. 😂
