Well, I bought it. First battle and I get a 6 sub game. Finished about 50 metres away from getting the kraken by ram. Hope it stays like this!

If I buy it, I want to know it will be the same ship in future. I will concede that so far these nerfs have been fairly Small and fairly well judged. I am enjoying being free to play though. Especially as I have well over 1000 days of premium time from my whaling days!

I’m still tempted and only a Kitakaze game away from being able to afford it. I quite like this kind of AP, I’m only concerned with the dpm being about two thirds of Des Moines level. Should I get Colbert instead….

I think WG is making a good step in the right direction. I still will not spend money on this game while premium ships are open to nerfing.

Ah ok, I'm running through a 4k television so i need lower framerate to stop my graphics card from cooking.

Just out of interest, why do people want higher FPS in this game? I ca understand it in a shooter but the pace of this game is far slower.

Druid looks better at the moment. I do love this little ship. Gibraltar looks like it lost too much for that AP. My inclination is that it should have kept torps or been given better pen or simply better smoke firing to make that smoke more useful. That said, I’m pretty sure I’m buying it on Friday.

There will soon be a new Soviet supercruiser that burns even better than Stalingrad. Imagine being in Stalingrad with only 3 damage controls!

Super battleships were just nice big targets to farm. I'm interested to see with the other super ships are like

What competition?

Nice catch! And nice try WG!

Imagine how much small caliber HE is flung your way when bow in in a Stalingrad? This one is worse, a Smolensk's wet dream.

Fires are horrible, I really hate them. Without them though, we'd need some big changes to the game or battleships would be ridiculously overpowered. Battleship fires are annoying but necessary. Fires are most annoying when you're in a T8 cruiser.

It will be this ship as sold to the russians with rail guns and a Nakimov bomb squad.

So we are in agreement.

And it's rockets were it's most broken weapon. They have been nerfed though I agree they can still be used well particularly by good CV players such as yourself. Before the nerf they were once the most broken point and click weapon in the game. Now the player at least has to lead a little. We can certainly disagree on how much this nerf will effect the average Enterprise player but I really cannot see how you could say that it has made no difference.

He certainly did not! He called the survey randomized then went on to reveal that there were selection criteria and mentioned only one of a minimum three. Transparency is important if WG then want to use this survey to tell the saltier members of the player base that they are wrong

Enterprise was hit much harder. It's almost balanced now!

It is certainly appropriate to only include players who have played in this patch. The problem I have is with the 'other factors' he hasn't said what these are and this in itself is enough to invalidate any piece of research. Of course, IF these surveys are only there to buttress WG confirmation bias.......

@Gwynbleidd11 You are very quick on the dislike button this morning.

Oh a randomized group that takes players activity and other factors into account? This is a selected group NOT a randomized group. For an outsider to make an inference from the results, one would need to see the criteria used to select these groups. If the 'other factors' included, for example, players who have played at least 50 submarine battles, you can easily see how survey results could be curated to be positive toward submarines. Ask the right people the right questions and get the desired outcome.

I thought I was the only one who thought it looks pretty poor or at most, average.

So many Kearsarge players forget all about their ship when they take their planes out. You have to use the battleship section but also ensure it's angled when you go for your flight. Further, the guns are the primary weapon, some don't seem to use it like that. Kearsarge can be very strong with the right player.

just had a better look: Same reload as Siegfried but battlecruiser accuracy, so worse main guns. 3 dam cons and a strange slow heal? this will be one the best ships to farm fire damage in the game! I'm sure it will be buffed soon.

My bet, cruiser accuracy with Stalingrad ricochet angles, arming thresholds and fuse times with Vlad pen.
