Even if it's the 'DD' (dribble/drivel) model of introduction. So, by mid May, they will officially be here . 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[-SBG-] ColonelPete Players 38,559 posts 19,178 battles Report post #2 Posted March 15, 2022 Hopefully they increase the gun range on some ships. Otherwise some inexperienced players will have a horrible stock grind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Who, in their right mind runs 'stock' ships? Even a marginal player like me learnt quite early not to do 'that'. 4 minutes ago, ColonelPete said: Hopefully they increase the gun range on some ships. Are not Ita torps fairly long range as recompense? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For someone that complaints so much about MM, you seem to have a high opinion about the skill level of the playerbase and their experience. Not everyone has 12k battles under their belt... Yes, torp range is ok. But they do not work that well for immediate self defense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No need to make a personal attack. I'm entitled to have my opinion about the MM just as you are. You should learn to not ASSsume, this only makes you look like the rear end of the donkey. I believe we can agree that only a few read the forum chat & that the great mass of players has little skill and/or experience in WoWS. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[TBU] Piratenmaedchen [TBU] Players 367 posts 891 battles Report post #10 Posted March 15, 2022 I would be more concerned about AAA and ASW than about guns and torps. I can handle subpar weaponry if it is manually controlled, but more symbolic than effective AI controlled mechanics are pretty much outside of my sphere of influence.

Yeah, but AA usually does not decide matches. Guns and torps do. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LOZFFVII Players 2,848 posts 5,365 battles Report post #12 Posted March 15, 2022 I've been looking forward to these since I started playng again. When I quit I was actually partway through the Amalfi grind, but I remember not doing particularly well in RM CAs. (which could just be me, because as much as I like CA/CLs, I'm not good in them) I think this'll be a good time to pick up where I left off by retraining Sansonetti. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the DD's are going to afford similar kind of experiences as the Italian BB's and cruisers, they should be an interesting addition to the game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I dunno. I always use it to spade ships, also when I am re-doing a line for RP. But yes someday that will also be finshed, true. And then all the captains to 21 points? IMO it would be better if they offered some "weird" ships for free XP, like Ise/Tone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And why they would offer "unique" ships for merely 750-2000k Free Exp, when they can charge much more than that as well some hefty credits with few extra steps via Research Bureau? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I believe they can be very strong for the small minority of the playerbase that knows how to use concealment and firing detection to their advantage. So I hope the average player will overestimate or underestimate them greatly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
