[2DQT] RUSSIANBlAS Players 8,241 posts Report post #4 Posted July 11, 2016 I can't see Scharnost doing anything less than selling in huge number. Infesting every game from T5 to T9. Like when the Tirp was new, it royally messed around with the MM. I will buy it but I will rage if WG don't sell it by itself and force us into £85 bundles Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[SPUDS] Unintentional_submarine [SPUDS] Beta Tester 4,052 posts 8,765 battles Report post #7 Posted July 11, 2016 I just thought of something... theoretically they could be dragging the Scharnhorst through Ranked if they wanted to. She is T7. And with that reload, the speed, the torps and thick belt, heck even her secondaries, she would rock the format. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[BBMM] Panzerblitz Alpha Tester 411 posts 11,153 battles Report post #9 Posted July 11, 2016 WG don't nerf premiums once they are sold. If a prem is OP they just don't sell it anymore. See: Type 59, Emperor Nikolai, Gremyashchy.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[JG4] JG4_sKylon Players 1,133 posts 20,992 battles Report post #11 Posted July 11, 2016 See: Type 59, Emperor Nikolai, Gremyashchy.... You are right, but it is the Scharnhorst. Can´t imagine any scenario where they would decide to not sell it anymore. Tweaking some hidden stats if it is OP (which i don´t believe) is the more logical approach in my opinion.

WG doesn't nerf premium ships *cougheveniftheyshouldcough* Unless of course they change a core mechanic across the entire game and don't bother to buff any inderectly nerfed ships to compensate *coughYubaricough* Anyone got some menthol drops for me? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[BABBY] StringWitch Beta Tester 1,608 posts Report post #15 Posted July 11, 2016 (edited) Am I the only person hyped for Konig Albert instead? I hope the supertesters are actually playing her. WG don't nerf premiums once they are sold. If a prem is OP they just don't sell it anymore.See: Type 59, Emperor Nikolai, Gremyashchy.... Gremy is a unique case of not even being affected negatively by global changes (eg. stealth shooting nerf) which other premiums have suffered from. Even her actually-not-bad AA didn't really change in 5.3 and was improved when the 37mm AA range got buffed (in 5.5 I think).

[2DQT] RUSSIANBlAS Players 8,241 posts Report post #16 Posted July 11, 2016 Is it just me or is Tirpitz much more handsome? I agree actually, Tirp has better proportions. Scharnhost has huge turrets for her size squeezed onto the deck and the main conning tower looks a bit strange. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[2DQT] RUSSIANBlAS Players 8,241 posts Report post #18 Posted July 11, 2016 A part of me thinks the Tirpitz maybe the best German BB out there... It has very few weaknesses apart from slightly poor AA, I don't subscribe to the stance that it's guns are weak. Scharnhost will probably be great to play but it'll likely be weak vs BB that are higher tier than it. I don't feel a well played Tirp is ever that badly out matched.

TheCinC Quality Poster 1,695 posts 9,500 battles Report post #22 Posted July 11, 2016 I was pretty hyped, but then I heard about the Dunkerque, and I gotta admit, even more hyped about that one than Scharnhorst. I'll get them both, don't get me wrong, but still.. I do miss the Deutschland class, hope they find a way to fit that one in. I have one book on battleships where they are mysteriously not included either.. Kinda feel sorry for them.. Graf Spee as a premium. 'Nuff said. Kind of hopeful we get at least one of them next week.

If a prem is OP they just don't sell it anymore. See: Type 59, Emperor Nikolai, Gremyashchy.... The type 59 was nerfed a number of times to hell and back. I was one of the original owners when it first came out. It's only a shadow of it's former self so don't get all 'they don't nerf premiums'. They defintiely do. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
