Known for having the heaviest AA of any light cruiser in WW2... Whoever approves of these stats is obviously saying that 40mm bofors is the worst AA gun of WW2. I see this as a big middle finger to any historical accuracy and a big middle finger to history fans, and us players. Yet another proof that WG devs dont know what they are doing. You seriously need to look into your development team when it comes to any kind of new "idea". And with submarines at the horizon i wouldnt be surprised to see more 8v8 and 10v10 random battles because players had enough of this $hit.

[NTT] arquata2019_ Players 2,248 posts 17,480 battles Report post #7 Posted March 12, 2022 Quite sad to see Sandy (San Diego) having these kind of gimmicks. Why not make it an Atlanta at Tier 8 with less gimmicks? That would be way better IMO. Really thought that its AA would be way better, but the only thing i see different from Flint, Chumphon and Atlanta is that it's got 7 flaks.. not that like makes any difference Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rest assured, time itself has already show that you forgot about this: https://blog.worldofwarships.com/blog/200 and the fact that your ability to LISTEN IS NOT EQUAL TO ABILITY TO HEAR! Murrica has spammed a crapton of premium ships in this game and I don't see anything to care about this copy paste ship. Two Atlantas is enough, we really didn't need four or five. I have strange guess that she can become Azur Lane collab ship for milking weebs. Also I have strange feel that this ship has a purpose of milking NA, which is probably one of main if not only reasons of her introduction. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[IFS] UnderDuress Players 191 posts 10,109 battles Report post #20 Posted March 12, 2022 WG's logic on this was baffling. we have an actual famous and historical ship. It's an Atlanta class know for being an AA escort, so they decide to try and force her into tier 8 and with a weird MBR and SAP gimmick, and also the usual crap AA? What's the logic here, it'd be like putting Warspite in with exhaust smoke and inaccurate guns gimmick or something. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still TVIII prem as "free" ship seems unlikely. I rather expect dickyard or something in such style connected with 4jul or Azur Lane collab. April and May Atlantico.
