Ever seen or been in a Petro vs Golden Lion 1vs1 🤔, both tanky both with no torps, the airstrike is effective if you’re lucky (a good Petro player would be wise to the airstrike threat and play accordingly (stay beyond 13k and wasd). D7P can also mix it up. I repeat an earlier comment I made in the T8 BB thread; stop messing around and have a T8 DD Brawl.

Oh don’t worry team mates know exactly what I’m thinking and where they should go, in game and literally 😗. T6 was a lot more even, if anything it was probably around 60%, the starting positions does not help and you are unable to get into situations where 3 or 4 can ambush a flank (because you can see all the enemy, and they you before you even do anything).

No my win rate at T8 brawls was about 20%, at least 3/4 games in a row I was sole survivor or one of last 2 alive. In one game in vanguard I was fighting 5 red BB constantly wasd and keeping them alight the game ended with me on around 1000 hp. I found that within 5-6 mins half my team mates had died, having a point blank starting position didn’t help as it didn’t allow positioning, as I said T6 brawl was FAR better, but hey we’re talking about the screw up kings !.

As previously mentioned MM and lack of ability ruin this and every mode bar co ops, But yet again WG fails to learn from its mistakes.

Yoshino is a Co-op beast Napoli is forgiving but harmed by its reload. Tulsa (baby DM) I really like. I’d probably say go Salem, that heal is a huge benefit.

That’s a very tough one, I’ve got Sherman and it is hard work, it needs a lot of practice and a good player torps are nigh on useless and visibility isn’t great, I’ve only met a Druid once in a Yueyang which proved inconclusive (gun fight with no victor), it fired very fast and accurately is all I can say, the Ragnar is the thorn in my side; quick guns, huge HP and Radar, it’s also driven by very good players, it’s the only DD I’d go wide of the 3. I’d say go for Sherman 😗.

Skane is where it starts to get interesting, each bote is good within their Tier, the Halland is very good and best of the tree , it’s the one many cv players avoid, whilst fast (speed and reload) the torps damage is woeful. if I’m honest this branch made me a better DD player because of the lack of smoke. Definitely worth a grind without skipping because each one does prepare you for the Halland.

Whilst I probably am the last to defend a god awful “games” developer premium ship camo’s (camo ; not the ship) is not new, it’s also not unheard of for said god awful “games” developer to screw up or miscommunicate, with absolutely zero admission or blame. Premium Camo’s for tech tree ships were very clear prior to the recent most excellent economical rework/ update.

I’m amazing a kind caring and highly considerate moderator hasn’t closed this down “ there is a proper MM thread, I’ll have you know !!!”. yes MM remains a complete joke how else do you explain well over a dozen loses in T8 BB brawl and only 2 wins ?.

Ditto, CAN'T possibly be WG, they never get anything wrong ;-).

Yes it is, naturally it won't be WG's fault, it'll be a personal server issue !!.

You’d have thought the mode would be good, it’s not, the maps are poor, most of the time you’re already within sighting range before you even move (designed to encourage brawling 🤔). It shares exactly the same issues as every other mode; MM and player base. There’s a lot of sniping and the usual muppets sailing broadside, T6 BB brawl was a lot better. One saving grace ; no Pobedo 🙄. T8 DD brawl would be far better !!.

Here's another prime example of total friggin idiots, 4 dead within 4 minutes, the rest dead well within 10 mins, I was the only survivor with the only kill, I capped and I fought all 3 red dd's at some point, killing one and damaging the other 2 (17k & 4k damage with guns and Torps), with zero damage taken. I received 2 complaints probably because I intentionally made Reds wait for the win and one compliment. Yet further evidence of clueless players, a dire MM and an incompetent reporting/karma system.

You obviously don't read what's in front of you, I told you I got the bronze star last time around and couldn't be arsed to go further, as is my right ;-). You love stats or at least used to, cough. Given how spectacular you are, what's your record for defending ?. And "another" saved star, this is after all a team game, and carrying (as I'm clearly doing), can only do so much, as yes the following was another saved star loss (top position, beating 3 reds), what more can I do, a goal keeper can only do so much on his / her own !.

No it’ll be in two years, we’ll probably have Missouri again next year 😗.

Totally agree unless the target is static or creeping forwards / back wards it’s very hard to land a strike and when you do it’s so pointless you wondered why you bothered. Yes the higher tiers can produce decent damage values but less than one single Torp. Their biggest down fall is when you find yourself too close to the action, while a Hindenburg etc is sailing in your direction. It’s like a noob Petro player who desperately tries to kill an approaching Hindy only to be annihilated by Torps. I play D7P as an uber DD, just behind a DD. There are far better cruiser branches out there I’m afraid and you cannot get the D7P, unless WG has another brain fart and does another PR’esque event.

What no insta ban for breaking the rules ?. Imagine the joy we’d get from developers not further developing the game 🤔.

Overall no, I’ve gone thru the whole branch and only the D7P remains in my port, it imho is the best of the lot, you think Halland chews and spits out planes you ain’t seen nothing until you’ve seen a D7P or Austin in action. It’s alpha strike like the airstrike is weak but it’s a lovely little cruiser with lots of handy tools like depth charges etc for when the one sub player plays subs once a year 🙃. Ironically D7P seems to see as many planes as my Kidd does, funny that 🤔.

Ditto, I haven’t played a random this year and don’t intend to, WG could easily address toxicity by increasing Co op rewards, which means we wouldn’t need to get teamed up with total idiots in ranked etc (MM 🙄), and also giving us what we want ; more scenarios, no subs, fixing the reporting and karma systems and actually listening to us and taking things on board, for a change.

Another day, the same old problem; overwhelming team mates, are they any good (i.e do the stats say they walk on water?), don't know because I don't care, it's like a football match : what happens on the day !, and today like most days it's the same story = a joke !. 2 ranked games, both losses, more dead shimi's with funky camo's. ADVICE FOR ALL YEUYANG players, don't pick smoke, pick radar; When cap contesting and you suspect a Shimi is in the area, once detected pop radar and just gun him down, it's no match, and the torps he sent while smoking up ?, radar should detect them = easy to avoid. Advice for Shimi players; if you see a Yeuyang or any other Radar DD run !. The days of shimi are numbered xx. Another high caliber and both losses saved. I clearly haven't got a clue, and must be really, really bad, which is why my stats are for me alone ;-P. And yes top photo only 1 kill, 172k damage ?, there were a few steal kills ;-(.

Alabama is for collectors only, it's an ok bote but the free NC is a better option. I'd also ignore Massa, it's inaccurate and a one trick pony, which only works when you get within secondary range, which I think you'll agree in the current meta is as rare as a player that actually wants subs in randoms.

Totally agree with this and the earlier Quote, Game toxicity is borne out of WG’s dire game management, as a result it creates confusion and frustrations, they are trigger happy to ban people and yet has been mentioned they are the catalyst, I’m pretty certain Conway and Co know exactly where the issues lay and yet would rather add to our frustrations by implementing subs, screwball reworks and high tier premiums than get the game basics right. Will that change ? no !.

First game in FDG for a while, yep she's still good, yep only a co op but a BB top of the pile with 3 dd's in the team ;-). Looks like her secondaries have received a slight buff ??.

Totally agreed vs humans, anyone who’s played against Moggy will tell how hard it is to hit, vs Bots they’ll get you every time I’m only hoping Kleber has far better AA, because Moggys is a joke.
