Deamon93 Sailing Hamster 3,124 posts 1,275 battles Report post #901 Posted January 28, 2014 I don't really see how this could make a case for Italian ships, WG has been after the Chinese market since the beginning, the Chinese server was started some months before the EU/US one and the Type 59 was released back in 2011 as a teaser. I know but what i meant is that if WG wants to they can find the place for French and Italian ships. It's a matter of will more than anything else Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dinozauriusz Players 11 posts 288 battles Report post #902 Posted January 28, 2014 Honestly - I prefered tech tree construction fron NavyField DD->CL->CA->BB with side branches for CVs and SSs in some places. No problem with matchmaking because... there was no matchmaking! Tier 1 DD could fight with tier 10 BB, and it had work to do - he could scout and/or torpedo it. Additionally low tier players were highly involved in hunting submarines or anti-air cover, but as far as I know here AA will be automatic and no SSs will be included. IMHO - it was better. I don't like tech tree from WoT and MM system (LT with higher HP than HT?!). Maybe Wargamin would like to reconsider this issue? Sometimes it is good to radically change something...

Every class coexisted with the others at the same time, there isn't that kind of development. BTW there isn't a single light tank with more HP than a heavy tank from the same tier.

You see, I'm not saying about "same tier". Aufklärungspanzer Panther got more HP then Durchbruchswagen 2. I know that thay won't meet in the battle, but this HP difference is ridiculous. I see no reason for that "every class coexistence with the others at the same time" can't be done. ...but this is just my opinion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I see no reason for that "every class coexistence with the others at the same time" can't be done. ...but this is just my opinion You're comparing a tier VII light tank which will face tanks from tiers above it and a tier IV heavy tank. By the way the Panther has more armor than the Durchbruchswagen 2 and even with the same amout of HP the Panther would own the heavy(that's why its 3 tiers higher) Ah and i forgot: Weight/Load Limit 29.93 / 30.0 t(D.W.2) Weight/Load Limit 37.67 / 40.0 t(Aufklärungspanzer Panther). At tier IV it would have been considered heavy ;) Edited January 28, 2014 by Deamon93 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dinozauriusz Players 11 posts 288 battles Report post #906 Posted January 28, 2014 I'm affraid that you don't understand me... What you wrote is exactly what I am saying about - MM based on tiers is making things strange! Tank that is light, would be heavy in other tier match. In my proposition it would be light and that's it. And still it could fight in one battle with Maus (it would be scout, or some other roles implemented by devs like eg. arty fire directing or whatever).

Well it's not strange if a Panther is heavier and more "healthy" than a pre WWII design. Still tech trees are divided in tiers which represents the development over time. It's the easiest way and it works fine(except in case of a troll platoon) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It could, but it would be utter trash and not worth even staying on-keyboard for. Try and think of one useful role for the Duckbrush in a game which has even such awful tier sevens as the Aufkl in. There ain't any. P.S. Why would the two most godawful tanks for their tiers in the entire game come to mind first? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I don't like the DD -> CL -> CA -> BB tech tree style because it will mean the grind will be huge Not only that, but to include the full range of ships which they want to, they would have to have people playing as Dreadnoughts in the same battles as Yamatos, Akitsu Maru playing alongside Taiho. Nobody likes to be an almost utter irrelevance to the game, some of us like it challenging, sure, but look at how hard many people whine in WoT when they come up against those even just two tiers higher. Think of the rage quits if the Medium mk2 ended up playing in the same battle as the IS-8, that's what it would be like. Tl;dr Some ships are a hell of a lot better than others.

RedBear87 Players 1,244 posts Report post #916 Posted January 30, 2014 Ise and Hyuga had also provisions for Suisei dive bombers, but there's that little issue with their recovery... last time I read about it in in the Q/A it still wasn't clear whether they'll pretend that this wasn't an issue at all or it'll have Zuiun seaplanes only.

B-41 has 6 305mm guns in three twin turrets, rather than five twin turrets mentioned before. And where did you get this info?
