Congratulations you're now super unicum
>>167852862
both are shite. PR cuddles you by apointing average greens as blues and WTR favors losing in order to farm damage
take WTR and inverse damage for kills, it becomes tolerable. i dont even know hwo to salvage PR.
statskun method is bad because it punishes divisioning and ignores everything that isnt win rate
>>167853307
Typical shitter who thinks playing in div somehow makes it easier to pad damage and kills without explaining why.

not on API
as isnt damage healed by enemy or spotting done or smoking for your friends etc

Which leaves any and all attempts to create a meaningful rating of some sort doomed from the start.
>French BB line still not announced
Reposting in new thread
>>167849535
Extremely high service costs, shit maps with massive open ocean, everyone has high range so getting sighted ensures you get focused and HE or AP spammed to death, torp walls and smoke clouds everywhere, CVs when you find them can simply power through any AA screen and delete you if they want, exposed citadels and awful handling ensure BBs have no fun, the sheer amount of damage make sure CAs have no fun as they get deleted on sight, and DDs have no fun because of the proliferation of Radar.
All of this basically guarantees you will get a team unwilling to press forward and instead prefer to snipe, blueline, and hide.
>>167854928
not that much. theres 3 ratings we can use that are 100% solid
WR, ship kills and survivability. mannering this per ship would work nicely, would work against the average damage disparity between DDs and CAs for instance, while eliminating damage farming and adding the survivability value is likely one of the better means to measure how much of the kills you got are actualy meaningful.
the only real weird part is that a high survivability with no kills means low contribution, so WR would be more of a consequence of divisioning and being carried.
>>167855850
Damage should be tied into ship kills and survivability so you don't get people kill stealing for stats and to actually show that those people earned their own kills.
>>167855991
damage can be repaired, making it unreliable and that would make kill securing not an asset as well.
if the API shows damage on % of the target including the heal it did, it would definitively be a asset, but still not a big weight of it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fhuJSv1mPsA
rev up those p2w ships goys!
>>167856242
Yes, but a 15k average damage with 3 KDR would probably means the player is just kill securing. Damage healed back is still damage done towards killing the target too.
It should be fine to set the % of damage lower than WR and survivability but enough to show some significance of the person carrying.

Many of the biggest and most aggravating shitters are too survivable.
I'd be fine with a Lo Yang style tradeoff where Black gets 4 guns, Fletcher torps (65 knots 10.5km range) and the normal radar. Even if it's unhistorical.
Black in its current form is retarded, but then again, Flint was retarded and they didn't do shit about it because hurr durr only 100 ppl get it )))))))))))))))))))))

Blame the retarded WG devs. Back when 3.0 came out, they gutted USN CVs so IJN CVs could be dominant.
>>167852670
>this butthurt
>>167872436
I wish they were even more dominant then, I hate running into Independence or Bogue every game.
What's even the point of playing a fighter-focused USN CV? At best you neutralize the enemy CV and maybe set someone on fire twice, at worst you do nothing while an IJN CV blows up 4 or 5 of your friendly ships.

So I played the game a long time back around the time they had that Other-Kancolle like anime cross promotion thing, and I think I'd gotten up to like tier 4 'merican cruisers.
I just logged in and I've got fucking nothing.
Is there a physical difference between the Steam Client & The stand alone Wargaming client?
They share the same email and password AFAIK, so I'm not sure what the fuck is going on.

>>167877360
I was playing both at the time, it's why I was mistaken that WoWS was for the Steam client also.
Either way tho, I'm missing a great deal of stuff. Was there a profile wipe or something?
>>167877421
No, it is an important tool to know who to trust and who to target.
Or at least it would be, if WoWS had a working rating system.
With just the winrate, it is a bit iffy, but still better than nothing.

And all untermensch shitters with sub-50% WR should play in a special retard gamemode where they can all be shitters together so that the normal people can enjoy the game.
Both things won't happen, becaseu we can't have nice things.
The only permanent flag (the commemorative one) outside of the Jolly Rodger this ranked season just says you get it for "participation" so does that mean you literally just play a single battle and you get it? Because I'm really not interested in any of the others so if that's the case I only have to play a match.

XVM doesn't magically put competent players in your team nor makes them work together (assuming more than 5% of the playerbase uses it).
It's a gimmick that makes the game frustrating for good players.
Why does anyone from here support XVM? The gen average is above blue while only about a quarter of normal players are like that so we'll just get focused to shit by everyone.
>>167878434
shitty blue pilled CV players trying to game the system
>>167876845
Sometimes it almost makes me miss some of the NTR/GUP/PLSGO shitposting on /wotg/
CW was at least kinda worth shitposting about since you could earn shekels
>>167877906
People who acted like that were shitters, and should've gone to the camps.
The idea behind XVM was to allow you, as an intelligent player, to use the additional information to your advantage.
See three blue enemy meds? OK, they'll likely rush to a good position, so you can counter their move and maybe hit them while thy are still moving. Or they'll attempt to spot your team so you can move your light tank into a counter-spot position and outspot them.
See three good heavies? OK, they'll likely push intelligently, position your TD so you can kill them anyway.
Just like the view ranges on your minimap, or teh last known position, or a better setup of player name, tank type and healthbar.
The fact that this turned into every shitlord with a 46% WR in his arty clicking on the 'good' players with 54% WR and a green rating who then compained about getting 'XVM sniped', well, tough luck.
Quite frankly, I wouldn't even need some made up rating. Plain winrate would be enough in most cases.

Problem is, the majority of the playerbase is made up of shitters. And any of the XVM benefits are lost of them, as the battles they now win thanks to grouping with reliable team mates and focusing on unicums are offset by battles where they play worse than usual thanks to being discouraged "unfavorable odds". Ironically, those "unfavorable" battles are the ones that make up the extra +20% on unicum winrates.
Meanwhile, unicums will keep on carrying games, but it will be harder and not as enjoyable since everyone will now try to focus them down.
Overall, XVM just increases toxicity and decreases enjoyment of the game for the entire playerbase, while providing little to no net benefits in the end. Good players will always be good with or without XVM, as shown by the fact that big league WoT players play without XVM even on randoms.

So how do people feel about the Batlimore's increase in ROF? It definitely helps in damage output, noticed that right off the bat, but she still suffers the Pensacola-Effect of being viewed as an easy XP pinata so I seem to always be focused, even if other, easier targets are closer than I am. I still think either an RN style repair party is needed or the ability to carry smoke in lue of radar (so as to avoid making her OP)

I remember in WOT back when the type 59 came out and everyone was crying about type 59 platoons I got into a game on steppes with two platoons on the enemy team. I told my team they're going to rush through the middle so spread out around the spawn and wait for them. Sure enough they did, and they got caught in a 15 tonk crossfire and evaporated.
I guess the moral is yeah xvm can clue you in on individuals that might be a problem but 90% of the information you need to make tactical decisions is already in the game.

>>167881942
It's just one more bit of information that you can use.
In WoT, this is slightly more important for fast tanks, especially certain lights or meds, less important for TDs and least important for heavies and arty, simply because the fast you are the more important it is where you go and how you get there initially.
The really good players just react instantly upon realizing how good or bad someone is, and reposition accordingly, which means tehy oftne end up farming damage even when they are stuck on a shit team instaed of rushing to their doom while their heavies camp behind arty.
WoWS is a lot slower paced, which lowers the value of this early information. You can generally see how good you teammates are simply by looking at their movement after the battle starts.
however, you would generally obtain the same info from simply looking at a player's global winrate, the actual WN8 or WTR or wheatever you choose to look at is little more than e-peen waving.

I'm confused. so are slavs getting a missile cruiser line?
>>167885492
That's what people are speculating but WG has said that AShM isn't coming.
>>167885492
cold war DD line supposely will have one AShM
future updates should include cold war armaments such as ASROC, SAM and AShM
>>167885680
Yeah, nothing better than vastly more powerful Cold War tech being matched up against WWII era stuff not even remotely designed to deal with it.
>>167885492
No. Missile destroyer leader, or something like that.
I honestly don't know, and don't care. I won't touch not a single USSR DD with 10 meters Pole.I suck at them. Hard
>>167885862
we simply want to bring proud russian naval history to life in our game )))
>>167885680
>ASROC
submarines confirmed
>>167886237
I really do wish subs had been included. They could have similar MM rules to CVs; Max 2 per team, always paired against same tier.
>>167886375
I'm glad they weren't, they would have been trash. They have no place in full blown fleet battles.
>>167886481
Neither do planes, and yet
>>167885164
It's just a fucking prank.
Kildin class uses the same hull as the Pr56 Kotlin class that they confirmed before. Setting up the reference drawings from the video, importing the partially modelled hull they already have from the Kotlin, and making the basic superstructure mockup they had would take maybe an hour or two total.
You really think WG of all companies would waste time and money creating special mechanics for a single ship when they can just make another premium ship and instantly rake in money?
>>167886549
Oh right, I forgot that planes weren't a part of fleet battles in any theater in WWII.
>>167886375
that would suck
the only real good thing of cold war ships is that cold war subs would work better
afaik we might get them but as a minigame like a scenario or possibly like a fortress asset in bastion
>>167886375
>much slower than DDs
>extremely vulnerable when surfaced
>no guns, so completely reliant on enemies sailing in a straight line
>can't even torpwall
The whole game would have to be rebalanced for them. That would mostly involved DDs getting shafted harder to give them some kind of role that isn't horribly outplayed.
>>167886561
so the new t9 will have ashm?
The Chapayev is the best bote in the game.

>I remember in WOT back when the type 59 came out and everyone was crying about type 59 platoons
When the Type 59 came out, there wasn't much of an outcry because it was before everyone discovered the power of a medium tank platoon. No one complained for quite a few months.

>>167889770
Yeah, they accidentally left in supercontainers that weren't just those shitty upgrade mods, but don't worry it's fixed now.
due to the issue that im a normie i couldnt get leander in xmas mission
now i have 2 choices, i can free exp to fiji, possibly including a 10 pt captain who is missing 3 skill points while selling emeroood to buy fiji or grit my teeth and do it on a moeoko clone that would make char proud
should i hoard or waste my free exp? the idea of keeping it to get in the top 100 of the ship, along with using it to get into stats kun shipfu list sounds entertaining, but i could do that after ranked ends...
>>167890893
you're not a normie if you're on 4chan
So I don't play WoWS or anything but do you guys hate raptor as much as /simg/ does? Like that nigger is so annoying, thankfully he's fucked off a bit, but do you guys know our pain too?

probably /aceg/ since Ace Combat 7 is on the horizon
>>167888302
>the original is a nuke
It's also a nuke with just some basic mid-flight course correction by radio and just enough accuracy to more or less hit a carrier group.
I mean, I know. 'Close Enough' DOES count with nukes, and it would fuck up flight operations and maybe even give Gloriosu Nissile Ship of Motherland time to fire another missile or three.
Because if the first nuke doesn't kill the target, just throw more. Cold War logic is wonderful.
>>167892402
I hope they're ready.
Since I'm here, I'm sure you guys bullied raptor, what were some of the things you did to him/called him.

He got BTFO every time he tried to win a competition or tournament around here, so that was enough.

>>167901405
Always fire from stealth at ships not paying attention.
If you're a German BB, don't bother because your shells withNaziyour target.
>>167900385
>I thought you wanted HOTEL to burn and die
No? The two main reasons as to why I discouraged the creation of a second clan for /wowsg/ is because it costs doubloons, and because there are no other clan functionalities at the moment to warrant making another /wowsg/ clan other than tags and an extra chatroom that nobody uses since the /vg/ chatroom and /wowsg/ Discord exist and are active.
I feel like a broken record repeating myself but here it is again:
The owner that made HOTEL did it solely to secure the clan name. That's fine with me. If it was for any other reason, I would have thought of it as an unnecessary use of doubloons. After having a long winded, yet constructive discussion with the original owner after we ran into each other in a random match on the same team, he asked for me to manage HOTEL. That's also fine because it now gives us the option of having a farming clan that already has all expenses written off. The rest of the details in that discussion mainly touched upon WG history and previous clan experiences going back to WoT. We addressed the issues that plagued the clans back on WoT and I vowed to steer the clan away from mistakes made on WoT. I look forward to working with him and Jake when clans moves out of open beta.
All this shitposting about me being upset is fake news.
>>167901854

Close the range. If you don't fire you have less detectability
I personally don't bother shooting if the shell flight time is over 9 seconds Too much time for the target to evade
>>167902107
Who even made HOTEL. It sounded like he was pretty based for being so level headed.

Long range shots are mostly up to RNG.

I don't remember how to play BBs anymore, just bought Montana today (haven't used it yet, retraining captain) and I had a Hotel division with a friend of mine after last playing BBs outside of the occasional casual Derpitz game and I don't remember how to angle anymore. I got spanked by a Monty and a Hotel in the same game.
I barely scratched 100k in Hotel that game, I guess I'm sticking with CAs & DDs, also I don't remember games on NA being so passive, last time I posted in these generals was back in open beta, nice to see a community still thrives in these parts. Hey, who remembers Steel Ocean?
I guess I picked a hell of time to play BBs again.
>>167913671
How do you end up in a tier 9 match while playing a tier 6ship???
>>167913671

>>167913045
The last two patches have had their issues (container flag nerfs, the useless upgrades, the retraining cost, and the XP increase for captain training, they broke the music, that sort of stuff) but overall I've actually really kind of liked them mostly.
We got some fun stuff like AR, things like CE are easier to get now so you don't get fucked for quite so long while training, they removed bastion, US CAs got some much needed buffs even if all of their problems aren't fixed, they fixed RN CL smoke, and got rid of the terrible stock hulls on stuff like the Nagato and Amagi. Better than some of the updates we've had.

Not the german dd line. IJN has best concealment and largest torp walls, US the longest smoke.

>>167927535
>what ship/tree just to not stand in brawl range then
IJN BB's and Russian cruisers have somewhat long range.Bismarck (BB) has 10 km secondaries (base range)
>>167897616
Nagato armor scheme and will over match almost anything including tier 8
She seaclubs so hard green peace will send hate letters to the unicum menacing judicial actions
>>167927535
Carriers.
>>167927535
>OK so what ship/tree just to not stand in brawl range then
IJN cruisers excel at long-range invisible firing at high tiers.
Soviet cruisers also fight at long range, but cannot stay invisible. They are extremely fragile most of the time.
BBs can, in theory, stay at range, but you will not hit shit. BBs belong at medium range (around 14 km or so), KM BBs at 10 km or so.
If you are not tanking hits in your BB, you are not doing your job.
>>167927679
>Nagato armor scheme
Nagato's A hull was never anything to write home about. Everyone who's played her has said her torpedo angles are downright suicidal in that you're guaranteed to be citpenned.
>>167927535
If you want to keep your distance and deal good damage with your guns Japanese BBs are a great line to start with.
Why is it every single patch they roll out makes the game feel worse?

Well, that was unexpected. What an unusual flag design, WG. Looks like a flag you'd fly above a brothel, rather than a warship.
>>167931527
>a flag you'd fly above a brothel
Obviously there's only one bote you mount this flag on :^)
Guys, are Jap DD guns actually worthy? I mean, they look well but are pure shit, at least in Mutsuki. What should I expect? Does it improve with Fubuki and co.?
>>167931859
Why do you think it would improve?
>>167931859
Not really. I mean they can light baBBies on fire and stuff, but don't expect to outgun any other DDs in a brawl. If you want guns either play other lines or just get Akizuki because she's the only real gunbote meaning she's the only good IJN DD that you can still get.
>>167931527
So finally a perfect Hotel flag?
>>167931527
>Looks like a flag you'd fly above a brothel
>>167931859
Fubuki and up get two rear-facing turrets that allow you to shoot at things while running away from them in an emergency (i.e., if you are detected anyway)
This means that a DD chasing you will often only have two guns to your four, which leaves things almost equal in terms of firepower.
It's not much, but it's a lot better than Mutsuki.
Pls do not bully Hotel.
Hotel a shit.

>>167933086

>>167933376
You do realize there are special versions of Hydroacoustic Search. Kriegsmarine DDs have had the special KM Hydro replaced with the standard Hydro because it was deemed to powerful. On top of that, they get crazy detection bloom when they fire their guns.
How should I adjust my playstyle in CAs for ranked?
>>167933468
Yeah that was the point, KM DDs have normal hydro, not the better German hydro.
And their guns are completely useless because they are literally more visible than certain cruisers when firing, while also taking full AP damage from pretty muhc every hit because ))))))))
On the plus side, you can also get Z-52 up to something like 16 km gun range if you et AFT and the range module, so you can park near the reversing baBBies and shoot at things.
Or you just get 66 sec torps with Torp Expert and module and launch four hard-to-detect 69 knot torps every 33 seconds.
>>167933723

>>167933723
Isles, hold one cap point until you are certain the cap point is truly secured
>>167933807
I would if I could but I can only play a Myoko with a 14 point captain.
>>167933737
>Yeah that was the point, KM DDs have normal hydro, not the better German hydro.
And it's fucking bullshit. Once you get Z52, the only KM DD which has KM HAS it's worthless again because you will probably hide from all the Gearings and only use it defensivly to help your teammates detect torps.
Lebe could've really used KM HAS because at T7 you get up close and personal more often.
I just hope they never add a DD line with Radar. That would invalidate any other DD line.

They could all have used it, becasue they're all pretty underwhelming.
Ironically, they're better torpbotes than the IJN DDs because their torps cannot be detected from the moon, their own stealth is just good enough and their guns are not completely worthless.

You are essentially a anti dd screen.

>>167931859
They get bretty gud at tier7. At tier 6 they really become a tool you need to learn to use. You can always spot a shitty jap destroyer, he's the one who forgets he has guns. The shell arc and velocity is good but the letdown is the reload and turret traverse. You wont outgun a russkie because you cant turn and keep them on target but you can firespam baBBies with superior japanese HE.
The ducky is the exception and has great turrets in every way.

With IFHE I don't think there's any CLs from T5 upward that can't pen 25mm of armor.

>>167956964
Fuso's deck is 35mm thick. IFHE on CL guns only gets up to 33.8mm
>>167957097
And all of the plating everywhere else (most of the sides of the hull) is 25mm. They're also the easiest part of the ship to hit.
>>167957168
No, the sides are either medium belt or torpedo bulges. The only part you can damage are the bow and stern, which are comparatively small targets.
>>167957284

Playing ranked is suffering
>>167959363
kek
>>167959416
I play it for the signals and credits.
>>167958847
>small areas of ship scattered around rather than concentrated center of mass
>Harder to hit
shocking. You try consistently hitting those with 6" guns.
>>167959810
Yeah, I do. That shit really isn't that hard unless you're bad at aiming, hell even if you miss you still start fires.
If I can hit that shit with US DD guns from range, you should be able to hit it with 6" cruiser guns.
>>167959946
>Lying on the internet
why tho
>>167960075
>being bad at aiming
why tho
or are you just convinced that anything you can't do yourself is literally impossible?
>>167959790
I have been playing since 10 am and I'm still at the same bloody rank
>>167959790
The rewards this time are jack shit because of the new upgrades. Might as well stop at rank 12.
>>167959790
I have more of both than I could ever need, and the rewards for them are terrible anyway.
I really don't see the point, when I enjoy random battles a lot more.
>>167960243
>Playing Ranked for any other reason to finish a container or mission requirement quicker.
Lmao
>>167961079
I want my stupid flag that I'm never going to fly
despite being low res that is pretty nice and comfy
tirpitz or kutuzov?
best credit earning potential?
is tirpitz 15 in guns a problem?
>>167962709
kutuzov with IFHE is ez modo. Go to a spot where you can farm BBs, pop smoke, and harvest 600k silver a match (with premium and flag)
Tirpitz is good too but MK is meta as fuck right now
>>167962709
>is tirpitz 15 in guns a problem?
anon pls for fucks sake put some effort into your sentences.
>>167962783
guess ill get the kutuzov then, it's quite a bit cheaper too
>>167963056
for premium luls, div with either a Benson/Lo Yang or another MK
>>167962839
is tirpitz 15 inches guns a problem
are you dumb

what is aiming for superstructure, and getting max pen dmg hits?
we did it reddit
>>167966214
Why tho? It's a bad boat.

Tier VIII Italian Premium Littorio Class BB Roma when?
So the new balans DDs are just an AA gimmick?
>>167969951
some fags swer they have ABM's
>>167969307
when they figure out how to give negative tps value without crashing the server
Just got Cololrado. Tell me about her.
anyone got the link of smug flag?
>>167972647
Fat and slow.Decent accuracy though assuming you can catch up
>>167972769
Improving range is good idea?
>Mfw acquiring the South Carolina
>Dat turret accuracy
>Dat low speed
The suffering has begun.
>>167973057
South Crapolina is a pain in the ass. Better than Kawachi, tho. Just make sure to focus BBs and angle. Load AP and be patient
/wowsg/, is AP really better than HE on the Myogi?
It only fires 6 shots, so at most 2 are going to hit 99% of the time due to scatter RNG.
Isn't setting them on fire better in that case?
>>167973049
Can't hurt.
>>167973057
Just wait until you get the Myogi
>>167973283
AP for BBs ALWAYS except when you engage too lightly armored tgts like CVs and DDs
Well placed shots are always a good thing. Get practice aiming.
>>167973880
It's not a question of my aim though, my aim is usually pretty spot on. It's a question of the shot dispersion RNG.
Even if my shot is directly on top of them, only 1 or 2 shots usually hit due to that. So isn't the additional DOT from the fire worth more than the bonus damage from AP?
>>167973283
It's the fucking Myogi, who cares? Just suffer through it and never touch it again once you're through
>>167974112
If I'm not mistaken, the tier 5 IJN BB also only gets 6 shots.So I'll have the same problem at the next tier.
>>167974236
You are mistaken.
Kongo has 4x2 gun layout and much better dispersion.
>>167973057
Socar actually eats st louises alive. Because of the shell trajectory just about any shot you fire at one will go through the deck bypassing the coal laden spaced sides and hit the citadel.
>>167974334
I have been having a bitch of a time getting Citadel Pens, is it no longer center mass?
>>167974404
Depends on the ship.
Emerald is 90% citadel
I was fucking multulicitpenned by a fucking karlsruhe right through the front in mine.
yo, newb here. is there any ship / setup that's opie op? anything i need to know to succeed?
>supertesters
>>167974926
>Lert
>>167974802
Cleaverland
>>167974802
angle
position properly, its 90% of success
citadels are on center of ship, underwater
NA or EU? i can give you a referral that will net you 2 premium ships at tier 6

Were special upgrades the worst idea WG has had in months?
>>167976908
No, bringing back ranked was.
>>167976908
no.
soon we get to trade them with other players for doubloons!
>44 defends and 3k exp because Shinyhorses can't aim
Low tier Ranked feels dirtier than sealclubbing at t4.
Should I put Concealment on Shiratsuyu on top of current 6,5 km detection range?
>Just started playing again
>Figure I'll check my greenhorn ranking
>Feel prideful as fuck at the auto-gen performance text regarding what I command most often
I wonder how bad it'll look two weeks from now.
>>167977901
yes, theres no way you can go around on a DD without concealment unless you are russian

>not the best ship for ranked
>>167978640
I have yet to see a single one that wasn't completely useless.
>>167978670
well they were supposed to be used due to their AAA but they got outdone on that as well so i duno, kinda feels like they got powercreeped
AS ranger to spot DDs and shut down enemy IJN CV would be cancer but im gonna go with that suggestion.
STOP

AKATSUKIS

RANKED
THAT BOAT IS TRASH
IT'S FUCKING GARBAGE
>>167978951
>AS ranger to spot DDs and shut down enemy IJN CV would be cancer
Too bad they're all against AS Saipan.
>>167979393
dont worry comrade its russian version will have better AAA and faster turret turning ))))))))
>playing ranked
>>167979393Agreed on for both games, anon.:^)
>>167979393
try and stop me
>>167979393
I'm going to bring Akatsuki on my last dance and there's nothing you can do to stop me.
What rank should I be today to keep up with the wave of good players?
>Trying my South Carolina
>Figure whatever happens I'm not going into the fucking intre-island peakaboohaveatorpedofaggotry
>Means I'm usually left alive, dropping highly inaccurate volleys down on things
Jesus fucking christ. Please tell me the Wyoming enjoys considerably better accuracy. I can't do this for much longer.
>>167979393
Stop disparaging my daughteru
>>167980990
>Wyoming enjoys considerably better accuracy
No.It has more guns though. Quantity becomes quality
>>167980990
Wyoming is a literal shotgun.
Its accuracy is shit but it has 12 guns so you're bound to hit something as long as you close the distance.
It's pretty good at shotgunning DD's when your team lemmings ahead and dies leaving you alone too.
