[PANEU] kfa Beta Tester 1,975 posts 13,875 battles Report post #2 Posted December 10, 2015 Looks pretty horrible to me, it is basicly a 155mm Mogami with 20% less firepower, worse range and worse torpedos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IamTroublemaker Beta Tester 2,287 posts 11,047 battles Report post #3 Posted December 10, 2015 Could it be that they've made a mistake and it's actually a T7? I think it would fit much better there... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it would fit much better there... if even that... looks like a Cleveland with worse AA but 2x5 torpedoes (and probably better shell arcs admittedly...) to me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for arcs, I strongly believe they will be much much better on this ship than on Cleve and the torps seems relatively good, 8 km is fine for a CA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kurbain Players 1,976 posts 2,773 battles Report post #7 Posted December 10, 2015 This ship definitely has its issues, but I wouldn't say its the main armament.Range will be fine with AFT (unless they actually decide to change it) and due to the higher fire rate and much better turret traverse speed its primary guns can be considered equal to the Mogami. That's the only thing it got going for it, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[RONIN] 22cm Beta Tester 6,377 posts 36,662 battles Report post #8 Posted December 10, 2015 Another thing is: tier 8 premium cruiser... when high tier games are dominated by BBs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[THROW] Takru Supertester, Players, Sailing Hamster, Privateer 3,851 posts 23,972 battles Report post #9 Posted December 10, 2015 (edited) Apparently we may see this ship in action after tonight's patch. Once the advanced tech tree mod is available, we'll be able to better understand what this ship is about. And if it really isn't good at all, WG might fix it in time before it's being sold. Torp firing angle could be decend as well. May be 120° to each side? Edited December 10, 2015 by Takru Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, the Atago is doing pretty good these days from what I've heard since the recent buffs.Maybe the Kutuzov will have the regeneration ability as well.

[THROW] Takru Supertester, Players, Sailing Hamster, Privateer 3,851 posts 23,972 battles Report post #17 Posted December 10, 2015 It's a guncruiser, what are you complaining about? It'll have comparable guns while not being able to use any tech advantages it might have had IRL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ahhh, the "CA mafia" again. If the high tier games were dominated by BBs only, don't you think that adding a T8 premium cruiser would reduce that since a lot of people will by and play that cruiser? And just so you know, they are dominated by DDs now, but I understand, even if WG removes BBs, people would still say "BB mafia", "too much BBs in high tiers"!

You can also check this thread: http://forum.worldofwarships.eu/index.php?/topic/37437-new-tier-8-premium-ship-soviet-cruiser-sverdlov/page__hl__%20sverdlov#topmost Most things have already been discussed. It is a pre-WW2 design gun cruiser. Personally i don't have any problem with its inclusion in the game. ...unless they plan to make the ship below the Russian tier X...

I have idea. Take USS Zumwalt to game. Its time to removed torpedos and launch many missiles. Actually, not the first time a 1950's ship was put into game. The Murmansk was finished in 1955. But when you look at where the Russian ship tech was during this era, It's not really anymore advanced than the other Nations. As long as the ship doesn't have missles or a nuclear reactor, still kind of fits Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
