Has anyone tried running this in wine? It seems pretty cool but I don't want to have to restart my computer whenever I get in the mood to captain.

NTRabbit posted:Which part? The Nuclear bomber thing was part of the post-war military funding fights and the creation of the Department of Defense. There were quite a few people in the late 40s who decided that all future wars would be both deterred and settled entirely by long range nuclear bombing, with armies and navies now obsolete. Wasn't that a continuation of the interwar "the bomber will always get through" philosophy, only with "nuclear" added?

I'm having a blast, aside from my tendency to embody the aggressive spirit of the Japanese Navy. I've played like 12 games and only survived one of them.

How much better is the Aoba than the Furutaka?

Sidesaddle Cavalry posted:Depends on what part of the Furutaka you're waiting for to get better. If armor, not at all. If firepower through faster reload speed, very yes. Cool. Any recommendations for Aoba captain/upgrades?

So even without manual drop (or maybe I just don't know the key for it) I can do some pretty decent damage. Also the previous carrier, where I did the same drat thing.

If Michaelous is one of you, sorry about being a bad Atago driver. Rudder shift is almost double what I'm used to. Also anyone have a suggested Atago build?

Gapey Joe Stalin posted:I'm running into an odd bug where in my battleship, I fire one battery when its crosshair is green, and every gun fires even though the others aren't aligned to shoot. I'm tapping the button once, not holding it or double-tapping. Seems to coincide with fewer shells being drawn by the game and none of the shells registering as hits on the target, regardless of how they are drawn when they land. This isn't happening right after you switch weapon types is it?

TehKeen posted:Maybe they meant changing ammo types? Yeah ammo types. If you have a different ammo type selected for the next shot, it fires every gun that's on-target and reloads every gun that isn't.

Insert name here posted:Tier 5 (Kongo is 4x2, New York is 5x2). That was a rhetorical question. What I'm saying is that the Bismarck is massively overrated compared to ships from real navies. Also holy poo poo there are some bad Atlanta drivers out there. Yes sail all the way into my Toros in a perfectly straight line please. I was poking around on YouTube and saw some videos of the Ibuki with the BB Damage Control heal. What is up with that?

grrarg posted:One of the beta patches gave tier 9 and 10 cruisers a limited charge version of the BB heal. I can't remember if it was one or two charges. In either case, it will be affected by Superintendent now so cruisers get crazy utility out of that skill. Extra use of a plane, AA barrage/sonar, and the heal. AA/Sonar don't seem to have charges at all. Edit: The Bismarck is a perfect metaphor for Nazi Germany. 1. Get incredibly lucky against one of your two principal opponents. 2. Be overrated massively by both sides. 3. Get subtly crippled by bombing. 4. Go down in an orgy of violence in every direction. wdarkk fucked around with this message at 22:54 on Jul 4, 2015 |

So uh which Tier 4 skill is best for Japanese Cruisers? I feel like I really, really use HE a lot since I'm shooting at DDs a fair amount. Heck I've never been able to get good at getting Citadels at all. On the other hand "More AA" and "not needing to blow repair the instant your stern gets hit" sound good too.

Is it worthwhile to blow past the first hull for the Myoko with Free XP? It looks like I get double the torps and double the AA on the second one. EDIT: Also, does propulsion upgrade 2 do anything for your turning? I heard someone say it did, but I'm not sure how.

Had a crazy game earlier where the enemy team had most of the caps but we kept getting kills at the last second (once with the enemy team at 999 or so) and managed to just pull out a win.

s1ppycup posted:Furutaka playstyle is free XP past it to get the Aoba. Furutaka is garbage. It's slow, the guns turn slowly, it's made of citadelium, and it's just generally unfun. About the only thing you can say for it is that it gets 203's at a relatively low tier, and you can use AP to do some nasty critadels. I'm going to second this. I love dropping AP on enemy Furutakas. Also I checked and retraining a captain doesn't ditch his progress towards the next level.

God I don't want to fight more Atlantas. Even if you kill them you're going to be set on fire at least twice. Atago is great though, I feel like it has a much better torp field of fire than other CAs.
