Why are you messing up my favorite RU ship (Stalingrad) by reducing the radar duration twice in a row?!!

Those changes were made due to balance changes and as you can guess, Stalingrad was overperforming other ships. Radar duration will be shorter, but still it won't hurt this ship much...

I dont see a major nerf in this... same goes for the thunderer

 

So what's the point of playing her when you have Petro which has better concealment?

It should have Petro radar imho. Yes I have Stalingrad. But giving it too many tools isn't good.

Way better accuracy at range? And even more penetration after all. Also his HE is much better than Petro ones.

Funny thing is that WG is nerfing SG radar but still slapping radar on everything they can, like Borodino and Constellation. And those radars are long range too,  at T8! This game is becoming radar fiesta, I can't wait when all 7 ships in CBs comp will have a radar, what a glorious day that will be.

Then play Petro.

And you are exaggerating ... the nerf isnt a big deal. The lack of FP was a big deal for Stalingrad, but this isn't.

Borodino and Constellation are both being in testing and still plenty things can change on them.

Yep, radar is getting too common. RU radar is already an infestation in ranked.

what the hell do you mean??? we bust our asses to get this ships because of their characteristics. if there is going to be a change in their stats, they should do it in test phase. not after every single one of us invested money or time to get them after they are released.

Wargaming has this weird habit of nerfing/buffing the areas of ship that have nothing to do with them over- or underperforming. 

If Stalin is overperforming, then maaaaaaybe the guns are a bit too stronk?

This is my same opinion. Wargaming knows the stats of every single ship from day one. And even the argument that WG doesn't nerf Special/Premium ships is a lie. At least don't nerf Special/Premium ships. I don't like this at all..!!

Well deserved. Stalingrad was overperforming for years now.

I'm surprised its still available in the armory.

 

We had this type of conversations before. Its WG's fault, that they release OP ships (they do this all the time) and they nerf them later. Yes I agree ... this is a very bad practise.

 

 But I still feel Stalingrad is in a good place even after the changes. That is my opinion ... you don't have to like it. I understand that you are pissed ... but WG should really start PUTTING OUT balanced ships, to avoid later nerfs.

 

Look at CBs ... they have to BAN their own ships from competitive ... they say TOO POPULAR ... I say ... UNBALANCED.

In the beginning the argument that she was OP was moot because only very good players had her, skewing the stats heavily. But now even the lowest skilled players have a Stalin in their harbor. Yet... Stalingrad still has 55% winrate in the last quarter of the year!!!!! Go check maplesyrup if  you do not believe me.

 

And btw: "Hard earned ships"? You mean just playing the game? The days where you have to reach a certain threshold in comp to gain a stalingrad are long gone.

Then go play Petro with his barely 20 secs of radar at most, Stalin can still have close to 30 secs of radar duration even after the 5 secs nerf.

After almost 3 years and getting indirectly nerfed by not having access to BoS and FP any longer?

X for doubt...

Over performing for three years in spite of several global changes that amounted to nerfs.

I agree it is still over performing but why make the change now rather than when it was still broken?

Wg doing their usual thing I guess not up to speed on what they have done to my favourite tier 10 BB Thunderer, nothing good I bet, but it was the same in WoT's, bust your guts to get the Type5 heavy, then in comes the nerfbat from on high, thankfully I rarely go in that game unless the servers or something plays up in WoW's.

Ah yes, now i figured it out:

No sane person is playing pleb-cruisers anymore because they are crap, so when better people play Stalingrad, they perform better than noobs in the other crap-cruisers

:cap_yes:

That makes perfect sense actually :fish_boom:
