[ONE2] RAHJAILARI Players 3,160 posts 31,670 battles Report post #4 Posted July 9, 2019 And why the heck not? I've had many of my most fun games at that tier (regardless of win or lose). Always like to play a few tier 5's. Well, we mostly play by going through tiers 5-8 each in turn and then back again. I only get to play a couple of tier 10 or 9 games every now and then and that's just fine by me. The main thing is to enjoy yourself right? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But, lol, I 'm trying out the Benham and I can't do it in T5. One more game before I do my 50th. On a more serious note, that player is on someones team. Its ok if there are 4 DDs on each side. OK you lost one. But, this was 1 DD per team. I was sorry for the red team. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In T5 to T7 i sometimes experienced much better gameplay then in higher tiers. Support, focus fire, spotting is working really good sometimes and u are able to compensate 1-2 suiciders. Me and my divi mates often try to play some HT games but often end up staying in the T5-T7 area. But it got worse since release of RU BBs. I hope they grind fast 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True, but I knew from start that the Chung Mu was weak and I knew he couldn't torp me in my smoke if it came to that. I wows numbered him. But I am used to this. Very few players support their DDs. In those rare cases I spend all my compliments and I spam the chat with thank you's. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know what is worse. To launch at a DD with DW (maybe muscle memory? if we want to find an excuse, like an instinctive reaction) or launch at a ship that is clearly way out of range.

[BABBY] StringWitch Beta Tester 1,608 posts Report post #13 Posted July 10, 2019 Looks like Chung Mu didn't have any other targets and just threw them out on the off chance they'd spook you, in case you happened to be a bad player who thinks they will get hit and end up leaving the cap circle as a result of avoiding them. I often fire torps off to the very minor potential of some effect if I know I won't be able to engage anything before my reload finishes anyway. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CptBarney Players 8,127 posts 245 battles Report post #16 Posted July 10, 2019 If i was in the benham i wouldn't of bothered going to b not without support anyways. I play quite cautiously in the maass and if teammates don't bother going to a cap i dont bother either (due to the amount of times i've died earlier on because of that in both world of tanks and this game). i've actually left cap once because i was so focused on shooting this near dead tirpitz in my maass i heard the torp indicator and fled but it was acutally from a sodding gadjah mada (who was appreantly 5km from my smoke but got deleted by the fat BB's behind me).

I just can't leave a cap uncontested. Even if I delay the reds from getting it my team saves points. As a DD in the current meta caps are hard to get but they are decisive to the outcome of the game. Take it and keep it. Have the points run. I think having more than 33% contribution to capture is one of the best indices that a DD is useful. 10 minutes ago, DFens_666 said: - Doesnt care - I pley 4 phun - Doesnt know what he is doing Bad and indifferent player. This player will never become average. Actually they are not a player. They are dead weight. An average player is conscious about the game he is playing and tries to evolve. Has a limited understanding due to lack of experience (not lack of intelligence) but as time goes by he develops and eventually he will become a good player. Our game has depth and is complex.

gustywinds Players 444 posts 5,582 battles Report post #21 Posted July 10, 2019 I enjoyed playing St Louis at T3 and the likes of Furrytaco and Exeter at T5 as well as some of the T5 BBs. Been playing mostly T8 and up for the campaigns but the irony is I have Yamamoto and no ship to put him in and will soon have Halsey as well and the highest appropriate ships I have are T7 (Colorado/Helena) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
