WG gotta make it's money, basic account players play for free thanks to those who buy ships But, in T8 cruiser now, 60-70% ships are Tirptiz and I am very quickly getting bored with this. Used to be 3-5 BB's in game a side, meaning there was still ships I can compete against, but now it's 7-8 bb's a side, and particularily in Ocean, that makes me no more than a target Limit BB's in a game or get rid of Ocean please, at least 1 of the 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A few weeks from now, everyone will be playing german cruisers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[ISFC] Ebusus Beta Tester 258 posts 5,688 battles Report post #6 Posted August 31, 2015 Why all this complaining? You know this will wither away as the days and weeks move by and people start getting attracted by other things. Is this just to open new threads? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eLampo Players 12 posts 887 battles Report post #7 Posted August 31, 2015 I bought the Tirpitz and would love to play some games with it, but right now it only makes me sad. As soon as I join a game, the chat is filled with people complaining about all the noobs playing Tirpitz and how its a scrub ship, because it has Torpedos.. I know this will also calm down, but as of right now I'll rather not play the Tirpitz. Hopefully in a week or two I can take her out to play with, without having to read some insults.. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[BOTZ] FlutterRage Beta Tester 225 posts 8,232 battles Report post #8 Posted August 31, 2015 At least it is only high tier with the Tirpitz, I remember when USN BB was first introduced, there were like 20 BB to 1 DD/CA in queue for all tiers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Iron_Gekko Beta Tester 497 posts 8,762 battles Report post #9 Posted August 31, 2015 This happened when the Atago was released, it'll soon calm down. Atago, or the "citidal" ship was never a problem as it's always been insanely easy to kill. The Tirpitz can be a challenge to sink, so for the most part they are impotent turtles in the hands of new people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiguurrr Players 119 posts 155 battles Report post #10 Posted August 31, 2015 If they annoy you so much, find a way to beat them easier. Become a Tirpitz hunter & destroyer. It's more useful way to spend your energy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[EW_YK] Barkyro Players 439 posts 13,829 battles Report post #13 Posted August 31, 2015 Waaaaaait a minute there. I might have misunderstood this and since im more or less new to WoWS I might not know but do you get a boost in XP and Credits for damaging/destroying premium vessels. I know if the vessel is of higher tier that counts but does it also count if its a premium??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[POMF] Pekoe_Darjeeling Weekend Tester 2,385 posts 10,008 battles Report post #18 Posted August 31, 2015 It's a one in a lifetime experience to play battles like this on live server(we still in beta I know but the progress will not be wiped anyway) so for me it was always fun. Like they add a low tier tank to your garage for Christmas or smg and then there is 28/30 BT-7A in battle or T7 and so on It never lasts long, keep that in mind^^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daki Weekend Tester 1,677 posts 20,280 battles Report post #19 Posted August 31, 2015 Hahaha, it is just unbelievable how people here complain just about everything and anything I guess you would rather like to see T10 battleships and carriers in your match that Tirpitzs? There is a lot of premium ships in T8 games but at least it provided some better MM for T7-10. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[BEUN] OverPenokio Beta Tester 181 posts 13,048 battles Report post #21 Posted August 31, 2015 Yes, there are a lot of Tirpizes around at the moment. But, as so well said by Aldramelech, it will tone down in a few weeks. Its also a opportunity for the gamers to play the higher Ts and buy them selves in. Not a bad thing. Doesn't this make you want to find a way to kill it? I wanted it and if you take your time and go for it you can do it. I advice a DD. You might hunt it for a while and have to shoot torps at it for over 4 times but you can do it (Sank 7 today). Dedicate yourself sinking them and you'll be just fine. Besides, the ship looks awesome .... So they are right. And combine that with the premium offer you get with it ... do the math. Cheers, Gilles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[SPUDS] True_Winterfeld [SPUDS] Players 625 posts 14,644 battles Report post #23 Posted August 31, 2015 I find it quiet challenging at the moment. I just unlocked my Myoko, such a beauty, and with the Tirpitz sale I have to face suddenly a lot of BBs in battle. Time for some new tactics. The not so experienced players are good target practice to learn how to break her. The experienced players are as dangerous as always in a BB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GeneralRushHour Beta Tester 369 posts 1,516 battles Report post #24 Posted August 31, 2015 This happened when the Atago was released, it'll soon calm down. It was even worse then because nobody had Tier 8 ships other then Atago. I played games with 100% Atagos in them. Weirdest crap ever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[ARRSE] cracktrackflak Weekend Tester 947 posts Report post #25 Posted August 31, 2015 Well I wish WG would give a me a refund on my Atago, as there is certainly no point in trying to play it at the moment. Each Tier8 game consists of 7x BBs per team, mostly huddled in two opposing fleets at the back ends of the map. CAs such as the Atago are virtually powerless - completely out-cruisered by these Tirpitz fleets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
