That's reasonable actually if that's late night... :/

 

Get a tier VII more (instead of two tier VI), a tier IV instead of a tier V... People with fewer ships tend to win those rounds.

Can I kill tirpitz with Cleveland??? not game ıs want to me lose

 

You can still do much damage, of course you can't beat him 1v1 (unless he is a noob who just bought a shiny new tier 8 premium while having tier 3 ships as his highest tier), but that's what the teamplay is for, +2 MM is FINE!

What do you think how does a Kuma or any other tier 4 feel when you bash him with your Cleveland?

 

You should have tried playing World of Tanks a couple of years ago, when tier 4 tanks were playing vs tier 9 tanks regularly

Probably not, but with good captain skills and modules, you can spam HE, set it on fire and burn a it. If you stay at max range, zig zag and angle armor, you will get plenty of hits before he kills you. Keep in mind that you get extra credits for fighting higher tiers and nobody forces you to engage Tirpitz alone.

Can your tier 6 cruiser kill a tier 8 battleship?  Is that your serious gripe?  Come on!  Of course a ship 2 tiers higher should generally win out in a fight!

I've seen worse. Nobody can expect to have a 100% win chance every battle - so play and fight for your win. Sometimes it's easier and sometimes harder, but nobody can expect a "fair" MM if 80% of the server is sleeping.

yep don it in Cleveland!!! But you can probably leave it to your Tirpitz or DD's. Ive also done it in the Atlanta got something like 96 gun hits on a Tirpitz..

 

In the above game though i would suggest you priorities should have been the DD or the enemy Cruisers.

 

One thing i love about WOWS is that a bottom tier Ship can do a lot lot more in this game than a tank can in WOT and in tanks a bottom tier can still be very effective

7+ tiers are still struggling hard. Despite all that time there are still too few ships at this tiers.

 

That or grind and economy are too punishing for casual players to even show there, as 3 months should be enough for even the most casual of players to climb to 7 tier. It was in WoT for sure.

I have no problems with mm myself. Carrier matchmaking is working in all of my games so far. This patch was a huge improvement.

Well its the wallet warrriors in Tirpitz in action. BTW, the bigger problem is in lower tiers. In 3 out of 6 matches I was forced to battle Tier V ships in tier III ship. One Tier III in enemy team and me...all others IV and V. Nice welcome for newcomers dont you think?

Again, don't see the problem. My Cleveland would walk out of there with 40K+ HE damage and maybe an AP cruiser or DD kill or two, probably a lot of AA kills too. :/ What exactly do you do in a match like that, that makes it a problem?

 

You're not seriously trying one on one and "let's have all those ships fire at me", are you? You group up with two other cruisers, then see what happens.

I see 3 DD'd which are easy kills for the Cleaveland + you can citadel any of the cruisers and go HE on BBs. MM seems fine in my opinion.

Nearly forgot.

I don't want to start anew thread for this but yesterday just before I sold the Cleaveland I got a Citadel with HE on a Myogi from less that 3 km away while shooting into the superstructure. My question is how the [edited]is is possible?

Did any one of you experience that before?

On an Ocean map, as a North Carolina I was front and centre... and then noticed that all of our cruisers were shooting the enemy battleships.

 

I asked "our cruisers are shooting DDs/cruisers? right?" and someone responded that they dealt more damage shooting battleships.

 

I set my expectations low on friendly cruisers and am pleasantly surprised when they do something useful :).

lol

 

Because FIRST removing threats and then removing BBs doesn't do more damage... Right? xD And people whine about the capacity of their ships when they should have really different priorities to fix. Like their understanding of the game...

Saw similar thing today. Well, like most battles to be honest, but today one was special. All 5 cruisers charged lone enemy Fuso. in the meantime 4 enemy destroyers killed our 4 destroyers (without loss), then murdered every battleship beside me. Our cruisers then proceed to insult everyone else and their mothers.

 

Seriously, camping battleships are but the tip of iceberg. Only more visible cause of their slowness.

 

And i am also pleasantly surprised when anyone would actively kill dd's. Seems like people still don't know about damage/reward system.

@OP:

You are pissed you can´t kill a BB two tiers above you in your Cleveland?

I normally don´t  give a whole lot on people´s stats but your´s are - gee!

I mean I know I am not a good, but I don´t complain when I get owned by a good player either or when I am put in a T7 battle in my T5 DD, CA or BB.

 

22k avg. damage in Omaha and Cleveland

21k avg damage in Phoenix

below 20k avg damage in _every_ other cruiser you have

Your best BB is South Carolina with 19k avg. damage

Your best DD is Nicholas with 14k avg. damage.

 

Well, to be honest, I don´t think you could sink an equally tiered cruiser, looking at your stats anyway.

 

As for not being able to kill anyone on the enemy team, WHAT?

 

There are 3 DDs on the enemy team which you can all kill easily (if you can hit them)

The enemy Cleveland is the same tier as yours, so that´s #4 and I seriously doubt a Myoko or Mogami will laugh your shells off (just don´t show your broadside to them or you will be toast)

And as for the BBs, it isn´t your _job_ to kill those on your own.

It´s your job to kill DDs and CAs and provide AA to your BBs

Support _your_ BBs, keep enemy DDs and CAs away and, if none of those is around, lob in some HE on those BBs while _your_ BBs hit them with AP.

 

Now, as I hinted above, I believe you, when you say you can´t kill anyone on the enemy team, but that´s not because they are on a higher tier, but that is because of you.

After new patch, I have luckily found my tier 6 fighting in tier 8-10 match. GG mm... 

 

It happens! It happened to me in CBT quite a lot! But you can achieve in such games and you get more XP damaging a higher tier ship. If I'm low tier in a game I find s high tier "friend" and stick to them. :D

Of course you can. Long range fire and HE spam should do the job since most of the new players on German ships don't have survivability skills or modules slotted.
