Infiriel Players 508 posts 8,055 battles Report post #4 Posted April 27, 2018 Want a tissue for those tears? You play on lower tiers, where DD`s are especially good, however if you look at the map and actively try to control the engagement there is really a small chance that you will get killed by a DD. Also learn the WASD "hack". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mongs think DD limit = BB buff but it really isn't. Same here, in DD's, especially low tier the one thing I'm concerned about is other DD's that spot me. I guess the OP is a classic BBaby who doesn't like the fact that DD's can do their job which is spotting and torpedoing him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thx ! As a cruiser (and DD) driver I can interpret your nonsense this way. 1 team = 12 boat 5 BB = half of the team (!) 5 isn't half of 12, but what the hell, we're making stuff up here. 5 BB = Less cruiser (BB's delete cruisers anyway, so less food for easy XP pinatas) 5 BB = a stupid game It is not difficult to restrict the game with 3 BB (in one team) than stupid games with 10 BB on 24 boats.

Not when battleships are already filling up their allocated slots (5 on each side) which is happening in most games these days. As such, a DD limit will bring more cruisers into the game, which can hardly be called a DD buff. Yes, the amount of ships capable of detecting a DD will be reduced but the amount of people shooting spotted DDs will increase. There's also the issue of radar, hydro and/or scout/fighter planes... For the battleships, they will get one more ship to shoot, as well as having one less DD to worry about. Clearly, this is not a buff at all . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's far from unknown for games to have more than 5 BB a side, I've seen quite a few 7 and 8's. Limiting DD numbers to protect the precious BB's from the nasty fishes won't bring more cruisers. Many people that would prefer to play cruisers swapped to BB's and DD's because they got sick of being deleted by BB's, the number of cruisers being played is unlikely to increase due to the BB numbers. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PapVogele Beta Tester 290 posts 3,590 battles Report post #23 Posted April 28, 2018 You know what would work to reduce the number of DDs? Hard cap BBs to 3 per team, less BBs would mean more cruisers, more cruisers would in time reduce the number of DDs and in turn increase the number of cruisers even more. There you have it! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, of course. But then, for example, most US battle fleets were based around carriers and even their BBs were pretty much just escorts and there were often twice as many CVs than BBs... :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is really discouraging to hit the "Battle" button -wait a minute to get in fight -manouver in position for 2-3 minutes -start fighting and wiggle and curve around like a race driver -see the shells shatter and ricochet on the thickly armoured BB -and then the BB lands a lol-salvo ....i sit in port again. With a BB i simply move slowly towards the enemy and blap cruisers. DDs occasionally get the famous AP-penetration and flee. I make a mistake - no problem, the BB-citadels got lowered (like the demands on player´s capabilities). That´s braindead one-hand play; it´s boring and i don´t understand how seemingly most players prefer that. A good proof that BB-players are less resilient is the whining in chat when a match has 4 or 5 DDs per side: "Oooh, so many DDs". Cruisers have to face at least five (or like yesterday: eight) BBs per side every time - but they take it manly without moaning. So: WG please stop stupid game with 5+ BB. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
