0.4.1 ruined the BB accuracy instead of making it better

[Malibutomi]

Since the patch i cant even hit a BB from 10kms if it shows its full side...i'm happy if 1 shell hit it, before the patch it killed a Colorado with 3 salvos from 18 km, and hit double citadel on a Myogi from 17km.

Not even talking about cruisers, before the patch if you sent a full broadside at a cruiser ~10km away, you almost allways had a citadel a 3-4 hits...now..maybe one hit with 1-3K damage while they are hitting me for 5-8K with each salvo every 10 sec.

Once ive got hot for a single 8K from one shell of a cruiser.

 

BBs are completely ruined..nor theres no need for 2-3 cruisers to burn us down, even one can do, because with can't even hit it, and if we do there is only a tiny bit of damage.

 

I've asked people in battles, and on forums, and so far everyne experianced the same..BB accuracy is BAD since the patch. Something is obviously gone the wrong way.

You're confusing "personal anectodes" for "actual evidence".

You're confusing "personal anectodes" for "actual evidence".

 

And you are confusing arguing with just saying something to speak.

 

For me its enough evidence that since the patch my full salvo is splashing around a ship ~10kms away while before it i hit it.

 

But since you are so smart tell me how one get evidence from a game? Should i crack the code and search for the values?

Bad day, uh?

[Malibutomi]

Bad day, uh?

 

Well yeah..and for me it speaks that in every battle, i just wrote in the chat: "did anyone noticed that BB accuracy seems worse?" and the answers are "yes we did"

[Mister_Greek]

First of all let me elaborate myself and say that i have not tested the new changes on the live server,so i dont have a clear opinion about this one.

 

Second of all as Agarwean said,there is a difference between "hard data" and "personal experiences",thats what Agarwean means but in a different way

 

Your main battery hit ratio is kinda average-below average for a BB.I can say a lot of things but if they are unfounded and only personal experience,no one will take me seriously....

 

Remeber that the BB's are too much RNG orientated.Many times i had hit targets well above 20 km and miss all my shots from 12 km.That doesnt mean that the accuracy was nerfed...

 

Only that the RNG is drunk in Vodka again...

And yesterday I got my first full health Cleveland one-shot since CBT.

 

The very close range fire is definitely more accurate, those tight clusters are like fired from DD or CA. The medium or long range wasn't noticeably different.

 

The only thing I was wondering is if they increased Fuso's turning circle, because it felt like I was turning at half rudder the entire evening

Well, that as may be, but unless you asked all of the thousands of people who play BB's, it's still just opinions. I personally don't notice any difference at mid-long range and I haven't been forced into a close range engagement to test the close range accuracy. In fact, my performance since the patch has been better, most games being 100k+ damage games

Well that is a reasonable answer..but since my hit ratio is worse for all battles since the patch, it should even out it its just RNG

Really? You might to look at what you write yourself then.

 

Evidence could be many things, but your personal biases and anectodes aren't anything like it. Especially when there's nothing that would indicate it beyond your stories, and that it actually goes against what the patch notes actually says, For one, actually having a good sample size of games before and after the patch would be usefull, not just a couple games and then base your conclusion on it.

[KPtja]

No change for me. I hit as good or should I say bad as earlier.

[shrapnel_bait]

The close range buff for BB main guns does appear to be working as advertised, actually managed to hit a cruiser at close range with my Kongo's main guns, it's a pity they forgot to do anything about secondary gun accurracy, I noticed in the after action report that my secondaries had fired 105 shots for zero hits.

[ilhilh]

My BBs seem as accurate as they were before the patch...

[General_Kunde]

You don't believe in RNGesus. Open your wallet and he will come to help you.

[Hurme_Ulina]

Hitting more citadels with my Tirpitz now, so patch working as intended.

Play more than one battle... in fact, play a lot more than one hundred battles. THEN you have at least SOME data to base your claim on. Other than that it is just RNG that kicked you in the face and that's it.

I can't confirm that observation, both Montana and Fuso are performing pretty much like they did before the new patch. I guess you haven't prayed to RNGesus as much as you should have, shame on you!

Did you even bother to read what Agarwaen posted or did you simply not understand what he posted? I'm just curious because you try to lecture a guy that said something that seems to be way beyond your horizon...

[Rabid_Turnip]

There was some weird stuff going on last night, in one particular salvo from Nagato I noticed one shell just drop into the water maybe 30% short of the rest of the shots, including the other one from the same turret. I mean, wtf? And that weird-and-very-annoying bug where you fire a full salvo but only half of your guns actually fire (side on, all guns zeroed in and green to fire) was back with a vengeance.

[Naskoni]

No changes for the worse, if anything its actually a bit better.

[kennydbt]

you do get bad days, but as a WOT player sometime I cannot hit jake other I cannot miss I do think the game mess with your accuracy

How about you attempting to read and understand? It has nothing to do with his stats, but his lack of any sort of usable sample size, or really showing his actual data. 

 

Now go crawl back under your rock.

I was playing some matches today and I had no problems at all with the accuracy of my BBs.

Even more I was surprised by the accuracy I got to see while playing my Nagato. Sure I could have been just lucky to see 41% hit ratio (68 hits of 164 shells fired) but even that goes against the claim of a reduced accuracy for BBs.

[Unintentional_submarine]

Quite.

Have had a blast in my BBs, and they certainly don't seem worse for accuracy. In fact, based on my observations of iChase in his new Colorado, it has been buffed or changed, intentionally or not. But the results in his matches were really interesting. About 2/3rds of his salvoes were really tight and really seemed very similar to how Warspite and New Mexico behaves. And then there was that last third where the shots scattered all over. If Colorado is that precise, then I'm looking forward to her with less trepidation than before.
