I wonder how you did that. I have just 'researched' the T8 Royal Navy BB. The rest what I have is all T7 or below that. And I am currently grinding the credits to buy that T8 BB, costs 11 million silver. It will be a while before I can get it... and then I have to re-learn the captain again... ...and buy all the update stuff... the whole lot.

based on that number, I sometimes have to wait ~2-3 minutes for a random game. Well that means 4-5x that, so good luck to them waiting 15 minutes LMAO. Hey, and then there's 'ranked'. I suppose that "RANK ONE" is where all the super-ueber-players gather. From what I have heard they are even more numbskulls than the rest. I say, good luck to them LOL!!!

I think they're both crap but whatever. Same variation of same stuff. A bunch of islands in the middle, with some cap circles.

Sometimes I do that too, a well playing adversary is worth giving good karma.

Well... I have done the math too, and in case of King George V it says clearly there is NO IMPROVEMENT. Except on some T8/T9 BBs where I'd get s more pens on upper structure, and cruisers that I could now devstrike. However, being the wise-[edited]that I am, wanted to try for myself, and put IFHE on... What happens now is 90% of HE that hits is full pen. No more shatters. A hit, is a hit. On just about anything. Yes sometimes it bounces off - I assume that is the armour belt. But I get MUCH LESS shatters than I used to. As for fires, a salvo (if any good) used to result in fire ~50% or so. Half the time, no fire. Now, there is definately > 50% chance of at least fire - and if the hits were any good, TWO fires. Even had THREE. That never happened before. And now, it REGULARLY happens. Yes, AP is still the way to go for real fat damage - if the other ship is close enough, and if it is flat-angled. Or if the other one took FP... even then, they won't be laughing that hard about fires anymore. King George the Fifth + IFHE = King Troll tha Filth... As the captain is shared with Hood... it doesn't cause many fires when shooting HE with Hood. But the HE on Hood is a lot more useful now, too. The AP on Hood is much better than on KGV though. So I'll keep the AP 90% on Hood... on KGV... only when I have something <8km and broadside... LOL.

I don't think he is just as bad. We all think OP is a PITA, but the one that shot him probably thought he deserved that after 20 secs. Now, I think THAT guy is the idiot with the short fuse. He deserves anything he got after.

It's probably just a bit slow.... The guy that shoot you is an idiot though. What did HE do in those 20 secs, look around íf everybody was doing their job'? And then decide to punish any that did not, in his opinion? LOL. His name must have been Befehlistbefehl or something. If that happens very often, I suggest the first thing you do is hit throttle... show them you are not AFK. TBH in a BB I plant full pedal to the metal, and then check where everybody is going. Plenty time in a BB. And better consider it well, in some of them is no going back bc they are so slow. But if the team, as they lots of times do, decides to go for all three caps (or A+C...) I just position myself so that I can at least fire over the caps. And then I cruise around from left to right, trying to shoot whatever the DDs detect.

On Fiji, too. Brake BEFORE you smoke up, or else you'll run out of the smoke. Leander was a bit better in the braking department.

Depends, I think WG keeps track if we were naughty or nice.

Maybe you should just play the game and keep it at related things. Nobody cares about your religion, or politics, or whatever, just about what you are worth to the team. You'd have to be really really good for any gamers to put up with religious BS. Most will not, unless you find a likewise bunch of people. FYI in a game please also refrain from ranting on about your mother, your dog, your lack of amourous capabilities and all that. If you need a game to vent that please stop playing and find a psychologist.

There is some stuff that could help. Reward the 'wanted' behaviour. You do not want people to hide. So reward them to TANK DAMAGE. Then you do no want the game to end halfway. Reward them to SURVIVE the game, losing as many HP as possible. We already have something like 'dreadnought'.

Public administration? Nah man, they won't ask and they'll just take an arm AND a leg.

I think you will find the one for you pretty quick. I see you already found out about Depth Torps. Which is great, as we have players here that have tier 10 and 5000 games, but still do not know. I suck at DDs but I play a lot of BBs. I can tell you which ones I get torped by most of all: Akatsuki and Kamikaze. The Kamikaze is a premium, lots of experienced DD players have it. But it is also the one I kill the most, as inexperienced players buy it and then they make lots of mistakes. I consider Akatsuki the more dangerous as those players have at least some practise.

If you'd pull the Allahakkabar thing on me I'd report you, same as the idiots that shout Hail Adolf and all that. I do not care what you believe even if it's Santa Claus. But while I find Santa funny, some things are just not.

We'd expect some CA/CLs to follow us and clean up the mess/leftovers. You'd be very welcome to feed them some HE spam. We're the other way around, we find where the most targets are and then go there and start the onslaught. Or if the team is actually so smart to cap BC or AB, we go behind that and kill everything that is there. Or at least, that is the dream. In reality we do manage to kill a lot but we're potatoes, so... They try, those DDs. But we have contact and we help eachother. Good luck DD... usually he stands a 50% chance of getting one torp load off, but he will not manage the second one. He'll be on the run... and we load the HE... In one game, we killed all 4 DDs. I got especially good at firing into smoke. You can see if he shoots, but you can ALSO see if your teammate got a hit. And he will tell me if he has knocked out the DD engine... Well, a GOOD DD might be able to do it, but I think it needs at least 2 that co-operate, or a CV and a DD. Very rare. So far we're not beyond T7 so no radar CA/CL. We've done good with BB/CA/DD but you need to stick together. The problem is if one of the 3 croaks it the effect is kinda lost. Usually it's the cruiser that gets whacked. DD/BB/BB works better. That DD really racks up the kills then... My teammate loves it.

You actually have. Send the replay to WG and file a complaint. If that happens more often they'll ban the player.

I always have great karma after having curry for dinner.

When you meet me in game, big chance it will be in a 3BB division. Hood, Gneisenau and something else pretty quick. Not what you'd expect, we usually try to steam-clean at least one half of the map. Stay ~7-10 km apart and pedal to the metal! It would probably work a lot better if we weren't potatoes but hey. We did DD/Cl-CA/BB too, worked (well, kinda). We also tried CL/CA/BB, that went good too. Best went DD/BB/BB but that is because we used Gneis and Hood (actually sort of fat cruisers). DD/CA/CL always is lol but miserable. Not enough firepower for how we play.

This part. Lovely. If I ever meet you online I send you a load of good karma. But since this is about the map. how about MOVING icebergs? I know they can do it. It would not even be that hard. WG can do transport ships, the icebergs just have to be a bit bigger. Imagine the face of an islandhugging tunnelviewer when he discovers his beloved island has just divorced him. C'mon I know you'll like it. And T10 deserves it.

Maybe you sent the wrong replay again? Lately though, I found it better to stay near the cap (in my BB) and see who takes it. Rather than taking the cap, I think it's egven better re-taking it after shooting all their support which will be mainly cruisers (half their BBs will be camping). My div-mate often speeds through cap (and then g hauls off) in his DD, what often happens is all the radar cruisers push the button (one radar time wasted) and lots of them pop up. Free shootout fest for any BB that happens to be close...

AH well, at least that is understood then - you mean against a KGV HE spammer. Yes then the pen damage counts. I was thinking of being HE spammed by Helena (or a bunch of them).

I must have met many of those driving a Scharnhorst. Probably doesn't help that it is a silver ship, so everybody (no matter bad or good) will have to play it. Including players that do not like it or do not know how to play it. Hold on - first you say Scharnhorst ies easier to burn fon because of hipoints, but next you say fire is percentage based so they both burn down as fast. And yes Helena is laughable vs these two. But I think Hood would kill it faster, unless it was up close. In that case the Helena would kill itself faster by doing that to Scharnhorst. Hood is also best against slower ships - kinda obvious. And yes the dpm is a handicap, unless you get them broadside. Which you can, using the speed. Many times I manage to get Hood in such a position the other one is broadside. You never kill them, but you can do lots of damage or finish them off.

Yeah I can see that at least the tactic would have been better. I still think you disregard the CV (both theirs and ours) though. Not even if I am a bigger potato than he is? I say it's the ship. Can't be me. Yes, relevancy against other BBs certainly is a thing. Hood is quite good. Scharnhorst might be better against some. But I'd rather meet a Scharnhorst in the King George V than a Hood. Hood is impossible to burn down, Scharnhorst is a lot easier to kill. It's also a lot less dangerous. If the player is any good he'll get the KGV down anyway though.

Actually most of them are not, they are scared as hell. I've seen lots of then 'evade' and forget to fire at all. BTW I have also seen lots fire DWT at the enemy and then hit a friendly further down...

Hahahaha just to troll I'll put him on an US BB.
