Just a matter of your point of view. As a BB: more BBs doesnt matter. As a DD: more BBs = more fun. As a CA: more BBs = meh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[MA-GE] T3ddyBear Beta Tester 298 posts 12,787 battles Report post #6 Posted June 9, 2016 This is what happens when WG listens to only one set of players. By removing the torpedo threat from DD's and CV's the BB will rule, but then that is what WG wants, to look after the Care Bear BB drivers who cannot master the WASD hacks. Radar/Hydro, torps spotted at ridiculous distances and the recent stupid AA buff any BB that gets hit by a torp now in the first half of the game really needs to invest in WASD training, nothing else can help them. If a CV targets a lone BB ( and remember the word "Lone") it should kill it, pure and simple, but because many, many players are not interested in playing as a team then WG has nerfed the counters into the ground, silly and rather sad. Harrier. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Syrchalis Players 1,401 posts 3,820 battles Report post #7 Posted June 9, 2016 AA level of BBs was buffed beyond anything remotely balanced. Basically a US BB could 1vs1 any CV at any distance because the CV would run out of planes before the US BB would die. DDs rely on others being stupid to hit torpedos. So if a BB is smart it won't get hit by a DD. A CV could capitalize more easily on mistakes, so even good players could get hit sometimes. With CVs out of the picture, I really enjoy stomping everything in BB. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But you know where BB is so you can avoid them or position yourself to them. DD do less damage but they are invisible and that is why people afraid of them. yes, the truth is, BBs are the biggest damage contributors I belive the CVs are. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, this is what happens when you look at 1 screenshot and make sweeping judgements. I'm at work but I'll maybe try do a couple of tier 10 games when I get home. I only have BBs at tier 10 so I'll contribute to this 'problem' and see if my games show a similar number of BBs/game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

anonym_XGuN6pHmfiJ9 Players 460 posts Report post #14 Posted June 9, 2016 You read a lot of crap about how Russian ships aren't historical correct. But when you point out that there are to many BB in a battle (4-6 BB in 1 battle), which make then to strong in the game, than historical correctness isn't a problem. Than you can play in fantasy world. If you want to +/- reenact historical battles than there should be 4 to 8 DD in each group and only 1 BB at most. Are BB to strong? NO. Are there to many BB in a single battle? YES (second largest group cruisers in a battle). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I see no reason why they can't go as close as possible to reality. Even in an arcade game. Like I said. You see a lot of bitching here on the forum about not following historical facts. Specially arround the RN and paper ships. But when you point out that there are far to many BB in a game. Than WOWS is an arcade game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Than WOWS is an arcade game. BBs should be made stronger, esp. their secondaries should be equal to that of cruisers and DDs, and please limit them to at most 2 in one game, and CVs too. And then 5 cruisers and 5 DDs, but remember to reduce their rudder shifting time - now they are not cruisers and destroyers, but PT boats, Oh also the map should be 100 nm wide and 100 nm long, LOL.

I'm talking about positioning yourself because you know where they are. So you do not go to the first line, stay close to your BBs in team, do not show them broadside, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dark_messiah93 Players 35 posts 2,999 battles Report post #25 Posted June 9, 2016 With the CAs easy citadel , and the absence of CVs....BBs rule the sea. It should be and hardcap of 2-3 BBs for team. But then what Cvs will hunt if cruisers are , at the moment, AA platforms ? WG stop nerf things listening to the whining of kids. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
