Naming and shaming is forbidden on this forum :P

 

It's not naming and shaming if he isn't shaming. There's no shaming there, is there? The point is "Look at all the Belfasts and Scharnhorsts".

I'd just like to see the numbers of Belfasts/Shcharnhorsts sold in last 2 weeks :trollface:

 

Gee, I wonder why is it t7, and not t8 :trollface:

And those Belfast players are mostly how do I say it nicely hmmmm [edited] :)  every now and than you will have good Belfast player that will do his job but mostly they will die in first 2 min or will be behind island shooting on ships 15km away...  I have played with Belfast all trough rank 12 and it is very good ship, can be a game changer but also you can get early double 18km away RNGjesus citadel hit bcs you got spoted for few sec. by the enemy cv plane - but ok it is a very good ship in a hand of player who know how to play with it and who knows what to do and what is your primery job..

 

But i will also say that Schari's are brutaly strong in this season, if they are not yolo [edited]they will endure trough the end of match doing big damage and killing almost all cruiser and some BBs

I LOVE it! Not enough premiums to my taste. Let's see if they can crack an average of 90% premium ships in every match.

The problem is, that the Belfast is so fucked that even utter crapplayers get very good results out of it. Utterly unbalanced. Just like the Scharnhorst in this environment.

Welcome to Season 6: P2W!

Hiryu / Shiratsuyu / Fiji / Mahan disagree :) Keep your heads up. There are plenty of good and great silver ships to sail.

once you get rank 10 and below  there are so much british cruisers that you get bored to death, all you do with your non smoke ship is go from one smoke to another when it is ending.

The way from the first smoke to the next is dangerous, you will be melted down.

Its 20 min of 2 fleets covered in smoke.

 

Thnks WG, you have broken the game mechanichs.

BORING AS HELL.

Can honestly say that I feel that Tier 6 maximum would be a lot more fun. 

Except then it would be absolutely dominated by BB's. Every tier has issues, it's less that one tier is worse than another and more that apparently WG has no clue how to balance premiums, and their excuse is people need incentive to buy them. 

Lowering all their costs by at least half would sell them by their names alone for the most part.

I'd prefer tier VI as kicking about in a Leander against mountains of BBs would be hilarious! :trollface:

Add Myoko also. 

 

God I forgot how awesome this ship is. 

 

I feel that this season ia pretty balanced, maybe a bit cruisers dominated which is the best thing that could happen.

I don't find the Nagato amazing in Ranked. Folk accuse you of camping when you sit a little further back and the guns over pen a hell of a lot vs cruisers. 

 

I've switched to P2W Scharn for now. 

 

Belfast is insane, even though i haven't won a game on her yet i haven't lost a star either. But I find the gameplay desperately boring, just a shorter range Kutuzov with no torp surprise. I'd rather Fiji but her guns are more situational

I wonder how many of those players do well though. Not sure if I really want to go into ranked, I was planning to use my Blys until I got Fiji but it seems I may just hold off. I can deal with one Belfast in a game as a destroyer, but so many becomes a challenge.

From my experience, current meta are sniping Gneisenaus. But im below rank 10. Maybe after that it changes.

And tier 8 was any different..

Lots of Yo Lang DD

CA was almost always Atago or Kutuzov

and there was high Volume of Tirpitz.

Apart from BBs the only viable non prem ship was Benson

 

At least tier 7 has lots of Viable non Prem ships. Like tier 8 All the non Prem BBs are Viable  .I would argue Gneisenau is better than Scharnhorst for ranked Guns have more Punch and Her AA makes her almost impervious to a tier 7 CV. the other tier 7 BBs are also good.

CA Myoko and her many clones can hold there own and the Fiji has a lot to bring. 

DDs Shiratsuyu is pretty much best DD to Bring. Yes the Prem DDs are also very good But the only DD i would not bring at tier 7 is the Keiv

Ah yea, its not like anyone brought, oh, I don't know...

Benson, Chapayev with radar, ARP Takao that anyone could get, Bismarck, Amagi, North carolina, Shokaku, old Fubuki, now add Kagero and Akizuki, Edinburgh...

Yea, completely dominated by premiums... Completely dominated by Tirpitz that is worse then Bismarck for ranked...

Get a grip mate...

There is a huge difference between a very good Ranked ship and one that launches you to the top.

 

It depends a lot on the player but the individual needs to find something they can carry in and change games with.

I find Fiji and Shiratsuyu good, I use both. Gneisenau works, but I am bored with BB, so Fiji is my primary ship. I did expect to see more Leningrads, but they are few. However the Belfasts, if in good hands, they can turn the game. Good camo and that gamebraking radar makes caps hard to win if they are in range.

 

Another thing about Belfasts, some times when Im in smoke I never get any radar/sonar warning or even detection warning, still I am suddenly hit by many ships. If I was very close or shot or was detected before I popped smoke I may not react, but when entire enemy team (those in firerange) suddenly opens fire while I am in the middle of the smoke (as in blob and halfetime), something dont work as intended. Its always a Belfast on enemy team not too far away. Never experienced this before. You should get a detectionwarning if spotted.

I am finding it tough tbh.

 

I always seem to do bad in my Belfast no matter what, i am far too aggressive in it so i end up deleted but if i sit back i do nothing i cannot find my happy medium.

 

I want to use my blyth but radar and hydro says no.

 

Atlanta is great but only if you have a CV in game, even so without CV in game it has radar but is weaker than the belfast i find.

 

Shiny horse i would like to take but frankly i do not want fires all the time.

 

Saipan i would proberly suck in, i use DB rarther than torps.

 

So far this season it is pop smoke and camp, if you push and be agressive you tend to get fires and die not too mention if your team does not help because sat in smoke you are fucked and DD do not like to spot and for good reason with 3 radars every game.

 

I will be lucky if i reach R10, no way will i reach 1 this time i just think it is out of my reach.
