Trigger_Happy_Dad Beta Tester 6,753 posts 7,907 battles Report post #2 Posted May 5, 2016 (edited) tier 5 + tier 6 = tier 6 mm = can fight against tier 8...take 2x tier V and you can only be matched against tier 7 max....

daki Weekend Tester 1,677 posts 20,268 battles Report post #3 Posted May 5, 2016 Never mix tiers. Never! Ever again! Joking aside, matchmaking takes into account the highest tier in division. As a T6 ship can enter the T8 match, your friend basically pulled you in high tier game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Better get same tier level if don't want meet high tier ships. If one pick tier 5 and friend pick tier 7 = Your chance that you will meet tier 5-9 ships Amen.

[SCRUB] Aotearas Players 8,460 posts 13,076 battles Report post #9 Posted May 5, 2016 Even though tier 6 never should meet tier 8 ? Tier 6 ships can see tier 8 maximum matchmaking, all within normal standards. OP divisioned up with a higher tier ship and drew the short stick. Not that being a t5 division in a t7 game is a lot more fun when most if not all ships are of a higher tier (and the performance tends to jump a little in t6, just compare Omaha with Cleveland, New York -> New Mexico to name some of the more prominent cases), but that's again just drawing the short stick and matchmaking doesn't tend to bottom tier people that often. Take it as a challenge. Being bottom tier and outperforming the toptiers is always something that makes me warm and fuzzy when I look at the end scores.

So you went with a Furutaka in a T VIII game with 90 PvP games played in total ? No wonder you got deleted from the map. T VIII players usually have hundereds of battles and to get to T VIII alone you need maybe 400 battles (may be less). So not only the ship is your problem, but also the lack of experience.

[DAMNO] Seinta Beta Tester 857 posts 12,319 battles Report post #12 Posted May 5, 2016 When you get popped in a high tier game, play smart. You can do decently well on every map exept Ocean, use cover and ambush. As fo getting rekt with 2 hits, I presume you showed your sides to a BB and he citadel'd you, always try to show as small as target as possible. If you can point your ship towards your oponent you will live longer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like the very balanced Russian Tenks and the Russian WOODEN Yaks that are able to withstand several 30 mm German rounds ? Not to say the new superpower called "Stalin's Hand" that is able to propel a RU plane without wings,torn in half and without engine like everything is okay.... Did i mention anything Russian.....?

Come on now. That was old War Thunder. It's not like that anymore, Japanese planes are the... most... ahahaha... You know shyte's balanced when you use 1939-1940 A6Ms against 1946 Yak-3Ps. Or when you fight biplanes with your P-40E. Or when you face Mig-15s and 17s against a Meteor Mk. III. Balaaaaance. If you say it isn't the most balanced game ever, feel free to be banned comrade!

[APF] Henning77 Players 95 posts Report post #20 Posted May 5, 2016 I know its within the limits set by WG. But I personally think its one tier too much. Fuso vs Amagi......well maybe a good player could win that one. New Mexico vs North Carolina......New Mexico is a tank and can take much beating......But........... So to the more impossible: Like Aoba vs Mogami Or Hipper vs Nurnberg. Like New Mexico was designed to withstand hits from 14 inch guns. Nothing bigger than that, and that is true regarding all Battleships, they were designed to withstand getting hits from the same caliber guns that was installed on the battleship. Colorado was designed with 16 inch guns and could withstand hits from that caliber. This game is fairly balanced.Only thing I complain about is when I get citadelled from the front.(Read Konigsberg and the paper Kirov.) They say its Arcade game,but when you encounter things in the game and mention it here,like detonation,"Well it happened in reality."Then its difficult to understand what kind of game it is. You can't say detonation happened in real life in one sentence and then go to Arcade game in another. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can't say detonation happened in real life in one sentence and then go to Arcade game in another. Don't compare it like that. A tier 6 BB has more than a small chance against tier 8 cruisers. Tier 6 Cruisers can give a beating to even tier 8 destroyers, and I will place my bets on a Mutsuki vs any tier 8 BB. Having played WoT, I can say that the +2 MM works way better in WoWS and you can always find something to do. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lin3 Players 746 posts Report post #23 Posted May 6, 2016 I get put in tier 8 battles pretty often in my Aoba. It doesn't bother me in the slightest. Due to the high rate of fire and good turret positioning the Aoba has DPS that is pretty close to Myoko, Mogami, Ibuki. If Myoko or Mogami show their sides they are citadellable with AP. Tier 8 BB's have to be treated wth respect in the Aoba (and the Myoko and the Mogami). General rule of thumb is that if they are not distracted never go closer than 9 kms in open water (unless it's game end and you can afford to die). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are forgetting that it is a team game, being lower tier means that you will have proportionally stronger allies. The New Mexico might not do much against a North Carolina, but a New Mexico and a North Carolina stand a reasonable chance against another New Mexico and North Carolina.
