Human mind is... strange. Example: I grinded Kongo a year ago, never touched again (grinding reason). Now I started to play it again... and is my current "new toy". So the simple fact that now subs are grindable can make them the "new toys", with people playing them more than if they were only a line of the many to grind (pretty difficult to explain ).

There is still the "new toy" effect to keep account for... and also the players are grinding the lines, another factor that will influence the game population of subs. Something like the first months after the german BCs release, when they were played a lot more than now (no numbers here, simple impression). We need to wait to understand the pattern. Some months are needed, I think. And to be crystal clear, I don't care.

I like the Konigsberg and the Nurnberg, so I would buy the Leipzig... but dubloons for a T6? No thanks (my choice).

Being heavily punished by playing those fragile CLs...

Ok, sorry. Didn't know the procedure to make those tests, I was thinking those would be true ships. I'm too young (game wise) to know GC history.

While we have still time, I hope... please change the name of the italian one. Call it Pisa. It have a lot more sense, historically speacking: was the name of a real armored cruiser, sister ship of Amalfi. Also, it was one of the four Maritime Republics whose names are used for ships by WarGaming (others being Venezia, Genova and Amalfi). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pisa-class_cruiser Obviously if it's not planned to use the name for a premium ship.

Someone could have removed the mods to make the test (I did it with the previous patch). Like you said, removing the mods and testing is fast and easy. However the test that I have in mind will be uninstalling the Modstation and the game itself, then reinstall the game only. Considering that I have also the Public Test installed, it would need hours. All this for a test about something that is not game-breaking and maybe unrelated... frankly a bit to much. Asking if someone is already in condition to verify it, that is the more logical thing to me.

I didn't mean without mods, but literally without Modstation... even better if the game is a clean installation.

Maybe because they are more easy to play than CVs? Just to say... However I'm curious to see how much they will be played after most of playerbase will have the trees grinded to T10.

I have the shut-down errors, but not that mod. I fear it could be the Modstation itself... Anyone have a clean game without Modstation to counterproof?

In my mind, that was a Lesta dev...

Made a little correction. Maybe it's only me, but every time I read this kind of developers opinions I start to think about...

Yes but in my experience it's rare, very rare. But it's not the point, what I was writing about is that in Raptor Rescue there are cases where the mission will fail and the team have no way to prevent it. And this is totally wrong, in this context.

Sorry, I had a bit of hard time to understand you. If you do so every time an enemy pop-up, you can be smokeless mid-way of the operation. This if there is a DD with smoke to begin with. You mean if there's a CV player in the team? But it's an uncommon occurrence... and even rarer it stay with the convoy. Out of curiosity, you speak about division play? Because I play with random teams, so those tactics are...

What?

In Raptor Rescue we still have snipers BBs. Yesterday my Charles Martel was devstriked into oblivion even before the CV will move from spawn, a Nagato in B2 shooted at me in D6... but the problem is that those bots can instakill the Raptor and the team can't do anything about it.

EDIT: deleted

WG need to add a voice that will constantly remember to follow the target list on top left of the screen. Really seems that a lot of players need a caregivers... or a nanny.

Today Operations were awful... I did a bit of copy-paste for this list (Ops only except the Z-23 match). First month after the rework my winrate was around 80% I think... today around 40%. It's true that those are not good ships for Ops (except Cleveland) but still... I witnessed an unreal number of absurd behaviours, really seemed that people didn't wanted to win. Weekend worriors... EDIT: didn't cut the Z-23 Coop, sorry...

Would be funny to post the replay and wait to read the comments of the forum.

Don't worry, I'm no one to be remembered to begin with. Yes, I readed you... didn't wrote anything because I was busy with the targets, sadly my Harbin didn't have the firepower to compensate fastly enough that "lackluster" CV's performance.

Only a good shot to a broadside stationary bot, really short range too... but the result surprised me. Even more because until then I had only overpens.

While playing Cherry Blossom I casually noted @Cammo1962 in chat. Sadly game lost because our CV was a griefer... when asked to attack the targets said "yes" and then keep attacking ships or AA positions.

My polemic self would love to link here the Battotai song... but I need to restrain myself. Still I find stupid that people can't be objective and separate historic facts from the characters involved. I hate revisionism.

Anecdotally: today I was in my Rupprecht, the only BB on a flank with a Henri IV and a Yamagiri... enemy on that flank had a Yamagiri, a Condé, a Schlieffen, a Patrie and a Balao. Plus both teams had an Eagle, but enemy one decided to "love" me. Would you think that I had great fun, right?
