xthetenth posted:Literally their worst. And then a month later they changed all the flight mechanics for no reason, put the aiming reticule way above where the bullets actually go and basically genocided what was rest of the community. I actually prefered WoP to WT since battles were fast, fun and there was a semblance of balance between factions. Now it's basically unplayable. gently caress you Wargaming for ruining WoP and now not letting me play WoWS

The Type 59 was nerfed to hell and so was the Sperhing, the only premium that you can call OP are the Church III and that stupid German TD that is the size of a pair of tracks +a canon and that's debatable. Anyway, is there a thread for AW? I can't say no to the idea of driving a Leopard. Also Mans posted:When will this piece of boat poo poo be open to anyone? Or is it already and i'm blind?

Night10194 posted:Which destroyer are you using? Part of the key to my recent dickstabbing success is using the Japanese destroyers with 7km range to lay down torpedo traps and wait for likely prey to blunder into them. Another key is to use your concealment to get around the main scrum and look for sniping BBs or CVs and ambush them; it doesn't matter if they see you coming, you can dodge a BB's fire fairly easily and you're a small target, and then you get in there and start the knifing. I'm mostly using the Japanese ones because i find the long rage torps to be better at doing exactly what you said. I just release my load on a strait between two islands and a lot of people just sail right into the trap. The problem is when i'm considerably far away from an enemy and i need to close in, they seem to never miss spotting me and immediatly focus me because they know an incoming destroyer is more dangerous than a sniping half drunk battleship on the other side of the map. So i'll just be at 6kms from the enemy when his load blows my engines and sets me on fire and at that range it's basicalyl useless to shoot torps since he'll dodge them easily.

Hunting carriers in a destroyer has become my favorite thing in this game. You pop smoke and sneak up on a distracted carrier and when he realizes he's being hunted he already has torpedoes on the way to hit his anchored rear end I don't think BBs are for me. How can anyone have the patience to play with such slow moving, innacurate and slow firing boats? Jesus. ChickenWing posted:Yeah it sure would be awful if things turned out like that incredibly excellent game that was significantly more fun than its respective Wargaming competitors WarThunder has this thing where 90% of the playerbase acts like Wargaming caused them personal grievances for not being a worse tank simulator than RO and get really offended when people say the game really isn't that special (why am i grinding forever for planes i can play with better systems in Sturmovik\wings of prey for free?). They're the breaking bad fans of vidja games and it's really weird.

is there a guide to just exactly what tree "is"? I played this game way back when it was released and i had a ton of Japanese stuff but now i don't really know what the Soviet, German and developed US and Japanese trees are supposed to be. Are the Japanese still the go fast, big guns and torps and no armor dudes? This game needs more guides. Also, what's the goddamned button to lock your guns in place?

The Soviets and Germans seem way too good, what are their main flaws? I mean, i'm able to torp Sov and German boats with relative ease because those boats seem to drop player IQ by 15% but they seem really good in paper versus the japanese destroyers and cruisers.

Devorum posted:Immediately turn your nose towards the TB's. If they're that close, they're likely locked into their run already. i'll keep this in mind thanks! what are the "keepers" of the Japanese line? The Kawachi is fun to brawl with but the short range is killing me way too much, is this the regular MO of their battleships? The destroyers are all super fun and i'm currently on tier IV, not surewhat i think of the cruisers, decent speed and tons of torpedos but they're very fragile for their size. Still, the Japanese line has been my favorite by far. although the Wickes is cool as hell too. Do the next US DDs follow the same go fast, short range torps everywhere logic?

what's the best way to spend money on this game regarding premium? does it share premium with WoT or did they never make it? I think not because i have like 15 million in WoWS and only 800kcredits in WoT. basically i want some premium for august and enough gold to buy enough garage slots and barrack spaces to not worry about having to sell pretty ships ever again or having to keep bad ones just to save on barrack slots.

El Disco posted:Aim at their side under the smoke stacks or turrets. The citadel area is usually pretty low on the ship so try to hit just above the waterline. Note that Destroyers don't have a citadel at all, and cruisers with guns smaller than 203mm don't have gun citadels (though if you hit under their turrets you still have a chance to detonate their magazine). NTRabbit posted:Should also be noted that the best you can is put the reticle where the citadels are, it still has to run through a couple sets of RNG to happen, no such thing as a guaranteed citadel. So i should hit bellow the guns and pray for the best? It's less complex than i expected! What about the two tier 3 torpedo skills, should i pick the one with extra range or the one with extra speed? If i choose both i get a speed boost and a 5% range. Is that the best option?

So I wandered off from the game and I see we have a lot of sexy new content. A few questions tho: Why do the Japanese have a tree that ends at tier 8? Is it worth it? Back in the day I remember Japanese and American destroyers were cool and good while the Soviets had mini crusiers as destroyers and mini battleships as cruisers. Are they still decent? If I only had a slot available and I wanted to put a battleship tree there, would I go American, Japanese or German? Are American Cruisers still weak as hell after tier V?

I swear there was a babby aiming mod that gave you a general ideal of where to aim at a moving target. I would really need it because 1)I haven't played this for an entire year 2)i mostly play as destroyers and shotgun poo poo so when i go to 20km range shots i basically miss by miles
