They were all OP in some way and the only way you'll get them is in Xmas Crates. But if you want that feeling, just get yourself a Sinop. All the fun, none of the £££.

Lol I have her along with all the other Russian BB's (apart from the Kremlin), but boy oh boy would I want the Slava, lol, back on topic, Muppeteer shows me how to play the Russians s I am under good guidance:Smile_teethhappy:

Well, right now I don't think what the Slava will be like if and when it gets released. Funnily enough, this ship has the name of a real Soviet Navy ship even if it is one of their 'creamy legends'....

I think it won't get released, various vids of CC, well one in particular says he hope it won't get released, he seems to be listened to sadly

As for the Mighty Mo, shame more BB's do not have radar.

The Might Mo wasn't an op ship but its earning potential was which made it op

Yeah it's totally balanced putting radar on a BB, totally balanced. That's why WG did it only once so far, because it is sooo balanced.

Noone dared to get close to 2 km to proxy-spot that Kutuzov.

Proxy spotting a MK :Smile_facepalm:. You torp the smoke, you don't rush it and rely on team to actually hit what you want them to hit. Unless you have division of non potato's ofc, then it might be worth it. Also, it's not 2km when MK is actually shooting it's guns.... If you actually proxy spot the MK within 2km.... guess what, he proxy spots you back.

Belfast was of course the queen for that, but the Kutuzov was also able to pull that one of.

 

Belfast is sooo much more broken as MK, having a toolbelt which is frankly just digusting ( yes I own her, no she is not a fun ship to play it makes me feel nauseous having smoke+hydro+radar+HE in one ship ). How the heck that ever got through internal testing....

Belfast is basically one man army, it is not uncommon to hold flank alone against 5-6 ships in Belfast when you're top tier and still come out as a winner. You could fill entire topic with the battles where Belfast was top in the table with more than 1000 base xp more than the second player in the winning team.

She is great to have, she is great to use to turn the losing streak over, but sometimes it really feels like slaughtering the lambs...

I could live with her easier if sh actually had torps, I now need a team mate who actually has her for i just cannot make her work, which is odd as I can sometimes have good games in the American cruisers.

 

I'm missing something,and not just other ships, lol

I was the same could never make the Belfast work I thought my job was to get near the caps and destroy ant DDs who dared to enter , It worked to a certain degree I would normally kill a DD and then die to a crapload of focus fire.

 

It was only later on that I talked to a guy who had a 70% solo WR in her and found out that he never used to bother first 5 mins of a game he would just go with the flow and really push in the later stages and he stated that's where the Belfast shines in the latter half of a game.

 

I never really got a chance to try these tactics out but it does make sense if you can survive by being just a gunboat and not pushing at the start of the game in the latter stages you have all the tools to mop up.

 

Just my opinion.

Because it's not uncommon to have half a sack of potato enemies.
