Nnnoooo.

 

I don't have a Halland. I've barely started playing DDs. The original point was that "just dodge" is a dumb thing to say, and there is no real counterplay to CVs; and FDR is particularly bad in that manner. The whole weird Halland discussion was something I had no part in.

Then somebody else said that. But I responded to you, the point was a Halland an 3 strikes, and no planes lost.

Something like that. Where I pointed out that it would at least take 1.5 minutes because of the 30 seconds delay that FDR has between strikes. 

 

Thing is, I'm kinda sick of types like JohnnyMac who think they are the best player in the world and "it also happened to them".
No it didn't. And in that video by one of the very best CV players it didn't happen either. 

 

Maybe I should search for that thread that got closed.

You are mixing up two discussions. Furthermore, I found that whole thing, particularly where they bashed you for lack of experience, tedious. And bad form, as the most infuriating part of this forum is where opinions get dissed after someone goes to look at stats. I mean it's a valid criticism, but leads to toxic and unproductive discussions. So I would rather not be associated with that.

I remember. It was here: 

 

Be assured I hold you in no way accounted for statpadding or statshaming. You seem a nice one.
And at least you have provided more feedback than "I hate CV" and the usual. 

I hope I have helped you a bit trying to negate CV damage (because indeed they are broken...).


Note, I usually outperform the other CV and even if I'm quite mediocre I know a thing or two. 

Could "statpad" to get better stats, but naaahhh. Would mean I become "like them"... :Smile_veryhappy:

 

Also, I do not lack experience... 3rd most games in Ark Royal on EU server. :Smile_hiding:
I know how Cvs work and even though they are broken, some just whine beyond any reason. 

And I like to prove them wrong... after all.. we have to get to 1000 pages at least to better the last (closed and binned) CV thread. LOL.:Smile_trollface:

Sort of "pulling stats" is not gonna help you here. It just makes you look.. well.. a statpuller.

Simply saying you should stop talking like a super unicum all of the time, you have this habit of 'teaching' people the game and arguing with people about their experiences even when a unicum player shows otherwise you still feel the need to argue. Its lame.

May I remind you that @Sunleader explained it perfectly. You can hardly call him a mediocre player.

I never said he was, dont try to project on to other people, and it is YOU that still doubts my experience and make out i am some kind of potato player, because... reasons. Such as this:

You probably overdid your claims, like most DD.

Even this situation, it is close but not quite what proposedly happened.

Maybe you are playing it wrong.

On 3/12/2021 at 4:05 PM, BLUB__BLUB said:

Yes, that is the fallacy. So, since he says the CV kept him spotted all the time... so he says...

On 3/9/2021 at 9:41 AM, BLUB__BLUB said:

Look DD-babbie, maybe you should get a Thunderer then and spam from the rear. 

I may not be the best CV player around, but your claim is impossible,

On 3/9/2021 at 9:41 AM, BLUB__BLUB said:

And that is not the CV then that is spotting you, it is you being a dufus. 

On 3/9/2021 at 9:00 AM, BLUB__BLUB said:

First time you meet Halland half your planes are dead if you are not careful (= GTFO ASAP).

Now try loitering for 1.5 minutes. :Smile_sceptic:

On 3/9/2021 at 10:33 AM, BLUB__BLUB said:

...because he believes that being unicum or not determines what is the truth?

Not saying that FDR isn't broken - but come on, 3 attacks and perma-spotting... LMAO.

I'm not THAT good but I do smell BS here. :Smile_veryhappy:

On 3/13/2021 at 1:38 PM, BLUB__BLUB said:

However... it is very unlikely. Also unlikely that 1.5 minute spotting is what teammates need to kill a DD.

1 hour ago, BLUB__BLUB said:

And I like to prove them wrong...

1 hour ago, BLUB__BLUB said:

Note too, that as soon as El2 posts the video, JohnnyMac jumps on it and brings it as proof.

How is it not proof? The Halland died from one wave of strike planes... this is is why i mentioned about you being a mediocre player, you keep telling us what is possible and what isnt, what is probable and what isnt, and you are incredibly arrogant with it. For whatever reason, you refuse to believe me and want to make dumb excuses or scenarios in your head to pretend it didnt happen. And again, even after you have been told you are wrong. You call me a dufus and say i am playing it wrong.... :Smile_facepalm:

 

19 hours ago, BLUB__BLUB said:

Now go think how (un)likely your scenario is. :Smile_sceptic:

Its not unlikely and it is certainly not IMPOSSIBLE as you claimed above, even if its unlikely, that means its possible, so why do you refuse to believe me?

 

On 3/8/2021 at 5:30 PM, JohnMac79 said:

It happened to me. You can say 'yeah sure' and 'lol' till the cows come home, but it doesnt change the fact that it happened. After flying around me with not a care in the world and attacking me 3 times i was dead from prolonged enemy fire due to being perma spotted. Sorry you dont like facts.

This was my original post about this, and from that you deduct all kinda of nonsense on top:

 

1 hour ago, BLUB__BLUB said:

So the original claim was:

1 FDR had the first spot, Halland was unspotted before
2 kept him spotted for 1.5 to 2 minutes straight (no help from friends),
3 FDR lost no planes...

4 AND meanwhile FDR pulled off 3 attacks. 
and THAT ALL together is quite impossible IMO. 

Yet you add all of this and claim its impossible even with a video as proof... :Smile_facepalm:

 

Just stop. Im putting you on block anyway as you are boring the life out of me with your nonsense talk.

The only part Impossible is Point 3

That FDR would lose no Planes.

 

Aside from that. Its really not a Big Deal and Certainly not Impossible.

 

You point out the Shima and the Rocket Hit.

But you dont mention that Elazer actually took his sweettime only turning around after the Timer ran out.

You also dont manage that there was Flak from other Ships added.

Or that Elazer on purpose stayed in the Inner AA constantly.

 

 

The Whole thing Lasted a bit over 80 Seconds.

So not a full 1.5 minutes.

But 3 Drops very easily.

 

 

Frankly said.

Seeing this. Elazer would likely manage 4 Drops if the Halland was alone....

Those new AA animations look awesome. I attacked a Queen Elisabeth and I saw two bigger gun fire animation at the funnel. I was wondering, why I always see those two, until I recognized, that the RN used these 8-ling AA weapons, I checked it, and yes, those Vickers were clearly visible. I like these details

any CV main should when the halland has no DFAA active and is most likely even using priority sector incorrectly, you get to spend 1.5x the time in AA without DFAA. The skill here was recognizing that DFAA was used in the first place and timing the CD.

pages and pages of worthless discussion,,,, cv doesn't fit the game they destroy the game play, flamu explained very well the WG developers purpose of the cancer CV. Delete them or nurf them to death. Game is destroyed every time that one CV is on the game. NOBODY wants them only the losers that likes to fly planes . Players are fighting and game became toxic nothing more nothing less .

I'm not too sure if i like the new AA animations. Private Pinguin said something those days i cannot unsee............. all AA mounts fire at the same time , making it look more like some orange warning light then actual AA. If those timings for each mount would be different this would have a whole different feeling to it.
