After WW1 - WW2

May be we start thinking beyond WW2 as Smolensk and Colbert are post WW2, it might be time to look forward a little. Most of the above are similar to what is in game already Also with submarines coming, there are no corvette,s in the game, as there where a lot of corvette,s with ANZAC allies it would introduce more country's

Having a smoke on the Bridge deck real life and thinking on it:- If it was me I would have a one day sale of all of them, possible with some sort of discount voucher, relayed to XP if you buy all or 3 or more. on another note; I always thought it would be good fun to have some sort of camo mount off, live comp in WOWS add a bit of sparkle to the grinding. Some good work has gone into Camo,s IMHO

Thank you @MacArthur92 I stand corrected, to be honest I been trying to grind out the Des Moines legendary mod in co-op so I didnt look My Bad

I personally find it a business " Miscalculation " not selling them in the shop. The amount of work on them, man hours, cost etc If it was me I would want to capitalise, on my staffs work. Unless there is " Grand Plan " that we do not know about, its bizarre. ~~ SEE BELOW : you can buy some of them ::: Apologies

I enjoyed the video, I like the way Chieftain tells a story. Good Work All

Putting Warsprite in T4 would throw open the tier and give " newish " players some ammo to get some plane kill xp and make it a boom sales ship, giving it a new lease of life. It would also attract the stats snobs for seal cubing, I think its a " Grand Plan " Of course the cv seal cubers might not like it " Mr President "

I do not normally complain about ships in game, How ever Warsprite needs some love. Right now I think it would be better in Tier 4.

@pzkpfwv1d Sorry Brother that is yesterdays fish and chip wrappings. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_cruiser_Colbert_(C611)

psst : What was that about 13.8km ?

When I " get a ship " I try knowing my own weakness,s in game, to get a ship I feel I can have some sort of impact with, after I watch CC, read the forum, and read the wiki. I have no issue with " ships stats " as long as they are not " gerrymandered " to sell them, and are a fair refection on that ship. I have issues with a significant number of players using personal stats to bully, flame, degrade other players.

Good Points @Xevious precociously why I brought the Yugumo into the cheating comment, no one knows how many games it has played. Which makes the " cheating " point " sarcastic and worth less. and " Trust Me " I never said I was an expert in the Warship game, However as some one who plays it, ever day and spends time and money in the game, I feel I have a right to " add " some thing to the forum, its up to the reader of my comments to decide if its usful or not. Best Regards

I generally agree with you @MadBadDave I am not to sure about " mouths wide open " on CV QE and CV PoW, the propulsion and range of them is " Questionable " I am not sure if I feel a Nuclear Reactor would be cheaper and more efficient.

Here is what gets to me on Public statistics :- example 1 : random game is logging in, and one of the dd players on the count down is already typing up a storm on how our CV has a 32% win rate and how we have lost the game, before it starts. Now I know I had spent money on signals and modules, and camo, I presume others did, So I find the dd man,s comments before the game starts counter productive to game play for our team. Hence to say our hero rushed a cap, not having his torps up and running, and with out knowing where the red ships where and promptly got sniped by 6 rounds from a bow tanking Buffalo. Boom we now are a dd down with in 3 mins. The hero then dead in game did nothing but ( untill I muted him ) talk about how bad our team was, what sh1t stats we all had blar blar blar Moral :- stats do not help you win a game or team play, stats do enable you to run your mouth and get distracted on the mission. Want to know the dd Players name !! Regards

If Belfast came back I wonder how much chit chat there would be on other countries ships? I am sure it would be the next hate ship topic, wrongly in my opinion as a owner of HMS Belfast ( and I love this ship real life ) In game I find Fiji, more " Operational Useful " I think the torpedoes are more useful than the radar. However I do love Belfast,s guns. ~~

I might also add off topic That the artistic work and rending of that work, at WOWS IMHO is far superior than any other game I know of.

@Akula971 I honestly believe, even in " Wargaming Accounts Department " there is a true passion and commitment to the history for Warships, making it a MMO game helped support this passion.

They are Historical fairly actuate, and a good representation of that countries, engineering solutions, at the time. I agree they are not pretty, but was the " Engineering Solution " the best and did it work ?

@1MajorKoenig as a " must read " respected member of the forum, I understand your comment, the issue with T3 and T4 is the average player does not feel comfortable, if a player " dies " to early the interest factor dwindles some what, I know some one will say " They should get good " the problem is they presumable are in that tier to try and establish there own play style, and to improve there captain skills, from what I have read it is a very frustrating experience, I played T4 a month ago for a significant time, as I was asked to comment and help ( in discord ) to try and formulate some sort of tactics, against double cv games, for players that had not gone past T5. I found the games counterproductive to a players game economy and moral. At the end my comment was play co-op or play a T4 CV, which is a shame, because like you say T3 T4 is a representation of a golden era of Dreadnoughts with in Warship history. Viribus Unitis could of been a " Boom " ship for game play and Quarter Year profits at T4 unfortunately I suspect there where " worries " on the gun caliber feeding " political balancing issues " Regards Mean while back to " On Topic " British representation

@genosse You make an interesting point re the " fan boy " aspect of the representation which I do feel is correct. Vanguard was as far as I know the last British Battleship to be built with its own history, and in game, I feel the brawling strength when not up-tired is some what missed by players possible because of the above mentioned fan boy aspect, there are plenty of opportunity to increase more " mission " based game play between historical facts with in the game, however bringing a balanced ship into the game is not a quick nor easy job, to do. I feel Wargaming actually do a very good job of it. There is also a saying you can not please every one all of the time, It takes time, commitment and a significant amount of work to bring a ship in game. The unsinkable sam theme was a very good attempt to cover 2 Country's with a interesting theme, I have no idea how successful it was/ is. I feel sure Wargaming are on top of the new ships work load.

@pzkpfwv1d There is a new line of British Cruisers coming out " early " Next year 2020, with at least 1 premium ship, so around another 11 ships for the British line, making it one of the largest representations in World of Warships. I hope this will address your incorrect discrimination fears, and that you enjoy the new line. Regards o7

Got it the 8th

Very good points @Redcap375 Although I do think there could be a very long and interesting discussion on " What a Destroyers Job " actually is, taking into account game meta, team play, team tactics, and solo tactics, but that is for another thread. o7

Exceptional Points @Procrastes @Karasu_Hidesuke got me thinking deeply about Friesland actually I may have an angle on some tactics, involving long smoke, short tuning circle for it, just playing with a few ideas in co-op ( I need a 19pt skipper )and the training room.

It isnt a 20km torp shimmer killer The NA in KOTS used 20km shimmers to great effect
