    Most underrated cruiser?

    The Myoko (or one of the clones). Is it not one of the 'benchmark' ships that has never changed (no buffs no nerfs)? Accurate MGs & 10k torps.
  2. Worms, a Can of Worms! That's what I term this particular thread. Here in EU, I just have two premiums (one free & one gifted to me). In NA, I have more premiums (some purchased) tho not that many. Please, no nerfing, not even to the real OP ships. Players got them & like them and, as someone mentioned, these ships only really shine under a competent player w a 19 pt Cpt. The reality is - any ship run by a competent player w a 19 pt Cpt can do well (maybe there's an exception or two, lol). Why didn't I buy an Imperator Nickolai I when I had the chance (then I wouldn't have had to wait till a Ru BB line came out, lol). Please, leave my Iwaki Alpha & Arkansas Beta alone - I like them the way they are (tho, WoWS, you might give my IA a few more HPs, lol). I thought storms & tempests were just a feature of some battles - I wasn't expecting one in the Forum (but, then, what do I know, lol).

    Spanish Community Leftovers.......not anymore

    Talk about a blatant insult to all Spanish speaking fans of WoWS. Another brilliant decision (not). I guess that means no more Pan-American ships ( the 'flag' looked awful anyway, lol).

    Supertest - Soviet Battleships

    Well, maybe it will be Ru BBs in the summer & an Ita Cruiser line in the Fall/Xmas. I just thought WG would logically use Xmas for the 'biggie' 2019 rollout (I would have if I was running WoWS.

    Soviet Battleships Tiers VIII – X

    Well, so far, the Sovetsky Soyuz is going to be the equivalent of the Musashi/Yamato (as it was, apparently designed to compare with) & they got the 406 MG size correct. Perhaps, I will strive to obtain the T9 (certainly without the joke BB/CV only radar - whose idiot idea was that? Author - we want the author's name).

    Soviet Battleships Tiers III – VII

    Just two upgrade slots all the way to T6? Is not this not rather weak for a T5 or T6 BB? I know there was a Gangut. What about the T5 or T6 entries? Are either of them even remotely historical?

    Supertest - Soviet Battleships

    I'm sure many want to see Ru BBs in the game & maybe some do not. What I see is WoWS is trying to make different BB lines as 'different as possible'. In some ways, I'm not sure this is a good idea as this sacrifices some historical accuracy in favour of a little too much fantasy. Sure, WoWS is not a historical simulator, however, quite a few players want to see historical accuracy (as much as possible, that is). I'm on the side of 'historical accuracy' if possible and as little arcade fantasy as possible. My personal opinion for what it's worth. GL, WoWS, with Ru BBs, especially the higher tier ones (which I likely will never bother with).

    Supertest - Soviet Battleships

    As soon as I read that Ru BBs are going to show in 2019 I saw Xmas as the logical release time with early missions in October probably (you know the new roll out model a la Brit DDs).

    Development Blog Comes to Forums

    Good. Nice to see a place where 'developments' can have some early discussion. Nice to see a place where Forumites can interact on new stuff whatever that may be. +1.

    ST - New maps

    BTW, Crysantos, as you may or may not be aware - in NA server during Beta test the Developers offered a map design contest. They got something like 200 map design proposals and the reward given, at the time, for participation was, I believe (if memory serves) a Diana (T2 Ru Cruiser). Perhaps, EU server here could do something similar.

    ST - New maps

    Always nice to see new maps (warts & all). No matter the map there will be whiners about said map (see above). I never whine about any map. I just play it & move on to the next battle. It would be nice if Ocean was in the rotation much more - you know, the one map that is even remotely 'historical'.
  13. I could & would support WoWS if it was still pre-reworked CV play. Rather odd we had decent play for 4+ years (including original testing) but now there's this continual repair site while trying to shove the new CV play down everyones throats. I cannot support WoWS in any way while they continue with this CV rework FARCE. To actually refer new players now? ROFL. I need my friends more than I need a 'failed' WoWS CV idea. I wouldn't subject any friend to this new CV garbage.

    Unable to sell The Great Gorgon camo, why?

    It is unfortunate that WoWS does not allow a player to remove from Inventory something they do not like and/or will never use. I, too, dislike the ugly Halloween Camoes & I want to remove them. If I never paid for them I could care less that I get nothing for 'selling' them. I will never use them. So, WoWS, please let us have the option of removing anything from inventory labelled 'cannot be sold'.
  15. WoWS appears to be covering their ears to all non-favourable comments on the CV rework. Ostriches who stick their head in a sandhole don't last too long.

    What ship have you served on?

    No naval vessel but plenty of Towboats And Ferries - I even made 2nd Officer (for a time) - now retired.

    Cloned (and similar) ships: too many!

    I haven't got it yet in NA account (close) & I am looking forward to it. At least, it actually was a WW2 era real ship (lol). WoWS not going to be renamed WoFs but it might very well get renamed WoBBs (if it hasn't been already).

    CV Rework: Some tips for beginners.

    Some may say you can make a silk purse out of a sow's ear too.

    Why is Gneisenau so worthless?

    In NA where I had the Gneisenau, I actually missed her when I had to sell it & transfer the Cpt to the new (at the time) Bismarck. When the FARCE CV rework went live I sold my GZ & it's Cpt is now retrained to the FdG. Two ships I do miss.
  20. antean

    Why is Gneisenau so worthless?

    I doubt, Grandorf, that you are going to be doing much better in the next tier with the negative attitude you have versus the Gneienau.
  21. What!? How much of their 'kool'aid' have you drunk, Yaskaraxx, like the whole batch?

    CV Rework: Some tips for beginners.

    I have one tip for beginner players. Don't play the reworked CVs at all. That's my 'tip'.
  23. antean

    Tips and hints for CV. Do you have any.

    Yes, I have a 'tip'. Just don't play the reworked CVs. Send that message to WG.
  24. antean

    Cloned (and similar) ships: too many!

    It was a long list & I scanned it rather quickly - just didn't notice. (I have all the Myoko clones, btw, not here but in NA - I'm a refugee from there, lol)

    The CV Captains Cabin

    If I could '+' you a thousand times I would Redcap375. I immediately sold all my old CVs when the Rework CV FARCE went live. Did I want to leave the old style of CV play? No. However, on principle, I will never play the new reworked CV FARCE style of play. I sincerely hope the reworked FARCE CV play is an utter failure. Yes, it is a sorry day for you to have to abandon the beloved older CV play (as it was for me). Think of your decision as a liberation from the WG DIKTAT (absolute power corrupts absolutely). Unfortunately, after four+ years of 'RTS' CV play, WG has decided for purely mercenary reasons to begin the ruination (imho) of another of their products. So, do as I have done (in NA). Sell all your CVs & use the extra resources for any new tech tree lines WG offers (esp the incoming Ru BBs). We all know the 'stalinium' will be strong there (such an 'easy' prediction, rofl).
