Wargaming WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?! Stealth radars and HE spam had made the game unplayable for BBs and DDs

[_not_so_nice_]

Al Nevsky has just destroyed the game

 

How long do I have to wait before this calms down and I can play BBs and DDs again?

[ColonelPete]

Nevsky has less HE DPM than DM/Salem/Worcester and cannot Stealth Radar...

[RuruushuVuiBuritania]

Oh no, how terrible!

You could just not play T8+ until the Nevsky hype has died down, if it matters to you that much. Not that it is super broken to begin with.

 

Once Petropavlovsk is here, that will become our new favourite vodka flavour of the month.

Give it a smoke and we have a deal, OH and rename it SMOLENSK MK 2 now with radar included.

If anything’s destroying the game it’s [edited].

Radars and HE spam? Yeah, that’s definitely new and introduced with the Nevsky just now. Oh wait, no they aren’t. And the game has been quite playable with them before today

Dude dont give away sikrit plans for Ochakov buffs!

I appear to have fallen into a time warp and landed in September 2018 (US CL split). The sky was meant to be falling in then, too. I still haven't had any of my ships hit by falling bits of sky (only the occasional HE bomb)

 

Edit: or, to put it a tad more constructively, new lines always lead to hype and the hype always eventually dies down again. While the hype lasts, it's a case of picking whatever is fun to you to play within the bounds of the hype. If I were very upset about a hyped T10 thing, I would simply not play any ship above T7 for a while 

 

I do sometimes wish they'd release new lines a bit more slowly, to spread out the effects of the hype, but hey ho, it is capitalism.

Just play Kremlin and never ever ask for Kremlin nerfs.

HOW DARE YOU?!? Have forgotten the Kremlin's AA nerf? What if Weegee nerfs Kremlin's flak AA by 0.5% next? That would literally make her unplayable!

[KillStealBoss]

Same story everyday 

As many others said, Nevsky isn't spammy as other light cruisers having only 8 guns. I think I have to take my Smoleńsk and Colbert out cause people forgot what is the definition of spam...

Going by your stats you were equally bad with both BBs and DDs even before stealth radar was a thing. You can keep playing - Nevsky wont have effect on you anyway

[SV_Kompresor]

I mean, can't you all see? Nevsky is so OP it makes giulio blush....not

*khm* Chapaev 12km radar w/ 10.4km detection range

*khm* Edinburg 10km radar w/ 9.2 detection range

*khm* Baltimore 10km radar w/ 9.9 detection range

*khm* Ochakov 10km radar w/ 9.1 detection range

*khm* Mino 10km radar w/ 9.1 detection range

*khm* Hsienyang 7.5km radar w/ 5.8 detection range

*khm* Yue Yang 7.5km radar w/ 5.8 detection range

*khm* Smalland 7.5km radar w/ 6.1 detection range

 

Did I miss any? Yeah, clearly "stealth radar" is a thing that didn't exist b4 the Nevsky. And that's excluding the fact that US CLs used to have that.

I'm dreading the day WG actually manages to release a [probably premium] ship that actually does that...

[ClappingLollies]

OP just thinks A.Nesky can stealthradar because he probably watched some CC's say it back when it was in testing. So OP, instead of listening to information that comes from unreliable sources,  go out on the wild wild web and do some reasearch yourself.

had you noticed another thing? In all those cases nobody complains about it. It was a problem only when USN and USSR cruisers had it. And Nevskyi cant even stealth radar in the first place.

As a kremlin you dont care about radars - you snuff them out of existence ;)

Ummmmm, nope, but the problem aren't radars and HE spammers but playerbase from some months ago
