Sorry for the comment  but WHAT THE [edited]  is happening with fires?

 

I see 9 or more  in 1 out of 2 fights, decided to leave any batlle in a BB after 8 CA's  after 3

If this is what you want be my guest but don't expect me to fight in those battles. I will leave those battles any and every time when I reach that number.

If that means I do let my teammembers down well so be it I want to have fun.

According to WG having BB's which can shoot HE all game is not bad for the game. 

 

Guess you're just a confused player :Smile_hiding:

 

/sarcasm

 

It's the increased amount of HE spam, which makes HE spam more effective due to DCP being forced more, which makes more people use HE which makes HE more powerful again...

I now see plenty of battleship captains firing HE.

Not only in RN line, but even with US, IJN or KM battleships.

This really begins to be ridiculous.

If you see a low hp BB and you see Orion start two fires on it and force a repair, will you shoot AP at his superstructure or HE anywhere to start a fire and kill him? HE + fires was balanced with the amount of fires started, now you have more people shooting HE it's gone off the scale.

Play singleplayer games, I hear good things about Atlantic Fleet. With that attitude you don't belong into multiplayer games.

Well it's quite simple really. If you are unsure of your aim, even in BBs, using HE will probably net you more damage than poorly aimed AP. Especially if you snipe from 16+km. People are starting to get this.

By "you" I mean someone.

Terrible attitude, we all play for fun, truth is, I can't imaging you having any fun.

Well. 17 is plenty when you set 2, DCP is down and next salvo you set 3 xD

Is hillaurious if it's USN, IJN or KM BB's doing it. Not so hillaruious when you are on the reseving end of a Conq and lose 18k HP pluss 3 fires set on you with one salvo. :Smile_Default:

I'd love to say the same, but since every BB seems to be having submersible citadels now, the alpha potential for AP is being ecclipsed by the sheer HE and fire dpm.*

 

Of course you can still nuke basically every cruiser regardless of angle or distance, I guess AP is still superiour for that target profile.

So let me get this straight; if you are angled and AP would do minimal damage you still want the enemy to shoot AP because??? In certain situations HE is the optimal choice and your basically just saying you don't like the fact people can still damage you. Yes it may be more useful in more situation on RN bbs than others but that's what they are made for and there is no problem with that as if they are focus fired they die faster than any other bb. If people stopped complaining about everything and started to learn to deal with it maybe we might have a good player base. Just a thought before you write "HE OP plez nerf" on the forums hey ?

You're missing the point.

 

HE scales with the amount of people shooting it since DCP get's triggered by more people starting fires, DCP will be down more often and when down people will get more fires. This was balanced VS AP because of the ratio of HE / AP being used. Even a GOOD player has a much more viable option to go shoot HE as well since he will be lighting up people who don't have DCP available. This has nothing to do with HE OP PLOX NERF.

 

Also if you think RN BB's are fine, I guess you're one of those who got a Monqueror in port already? 40% fire chance on tier 4 when enemies have 20% fire chance reduction ( only other tier with that fire chance is tier X.... where ship hulls have 50% fire chance reduction ), and it's 'fine'? HE alpha from tier 4 onwards higher as a Montana, fine and balanced? Concealment better as half the cruisers in the game, fine and balanced? Please, allow me to disagree with a vengeance.

Maybe spend more time in game than on the forums. The reason the British have better HE is because their AP has worse penetration than other battleships. They are also the most suceptable to torps and as I said above if focused they die the quickest due to their armour having 32 mm plates allowing mor penetrations than shatters. And when focused the heal does not really have much effect. So before saying they are OP try playing all the way up the line and learn their weaknessses too.

It's only marginally worse, and doesn't need this much offsetting.

WG's excuse being reiterated doesn't make things true. We'll see when stats 'stabilize' how 'balanced' RN BB's will turn out to be. I guess they kind of need to make broken BB lines to keep the babies content.

Ow yeah.... sure... :Smile_smile:

No I am not playing a retarded mong line, I won't add to an already broken meta :Smile_smile:  And I don't need to in order to comment on their statistics and performance. Unlike some shitters who shouldn't share their opinions since they clearly lack any understanding of the game, I CAN extrapolate things quite well even from just plain paper statistics ). 

 

edit: And to the surprise of NO ONE here, you indeed are one of the guys who already got Monqueror and by gawd is it your highest damage babyboat really? Beating your Yammy with 40k on average for instance? And you think it's 'balanced' right? :Smile_facepalm:
