can I get a picture of the new premiums with the screens open and a few words of how they feel like? I wanna update it, got the myoko and was mildly pleased with myself on it, I'll try to keep playing at least the proverbial daily win

i summon /wowsg/ resident shimakaze player to cap and win the game for us

u wanna play

Any point to using type 2 camo?

If I drag a tier 4 CV up to tier 9/10

will another tier 4 CV be selected to match it on the enemy team?

Yes. It's the better camo. It genuinely makes you a pain in the ass to try to hit at range. The other stuff just decreases your detection range by a pathetic amount.

>What would be the main problem causing people to not play high tiers?

Literally no incentive.

At high tiers, the Midway just shits on everyone, and even if you don't get deleted from the game by a carrier you still lose 200,000 credits a game. The economy and balance of this game is a joke.

I said it during beta, but this game is the next World of Warplanes. Wargaming just can't balance a game's economy, mechanics, or anything worth a shit.

>>121063837
So what caused people to continue to play high tiers in WoT?

Which hull upgrade for Iowa fixes the armor, the top speed, and has the quad bofors mounts?

>>121063837
>I said it during beta, but this game is the next World of Warplanes
no it isnt

>>121064134
Even if I spam APCR rounds in my IS7, I still make some credits at the end of a match in WoT. And even if I don't, I don't lose a huge amount. In Warships, you lose big. When a Midway shift-deletes you from the game, you lose 400,000 credits, and if win only yields like 60,000 credits.

WoT actually had the same problem with the high tier economy, but Wargaming fixed it by increased t8-10 credit gains by 10%-15%, and then again by another 10%.

There's also, again, how bad balance is. It really is fun to be removed from the game by a Midway. There's literally no counter play for DDs and CAs, and BBs and CVs can only hope they have enough health not to die in the first torp plane run.

>>121064845
Everything is bigger in botes. You win bigger and you lose bigger.

How is this a surprise?

>>121064829
WoWs is hemorrhaging players. For the first few months of live release matches were generally full. Now they're consistently below max.

For the first few months after launch, when I played there were 8,000-12,000 players on, now there's like 2,000-3,000 during around noon.

Players are quiting because this game just isn't fun. It's not fun when there's zero counter play against CVs, it's not fun when AA is literally random, or when DDs get 1 shot by everything. This is just a bad game and Wargaming refuses to fix anything, and has for months.

>>121065118
Except you don't actually win bigger

>>121065118
I'm aware the numbers are larger, but it still doesn't compare to WoT's economy. If I spam APCR all day in tanks, I'd still make about 200,000 credits after 50 matches (not a lot, I know). But in ships, after 20 t10 games, I'm out 2,000,000 credits no matter how well I play. It's just not satisfying. It's also not satisfying when every game has teams of 5 ships, and 2 of them are CVs who just farm damage.

Waiting 5 minutes for small matches with terrible MM (4 t10s vs. 0 t10s) and Midways just removing people from the game is a terrible play experience. If Wargaming doesn't fix it soon, then this game will die just like all of their other non WoT ventures.

>>121063452

Maybe EU is fairing better, but on NA it's dead as dead can be. On NA, even at "peak" times you won't get full matches. MM consistently tosses together uneven teams (uneven either by numbers or tier), and it just leads to a shitty experience.

>>121035998

>>guns turn slower than even japs

unless you mean the bare stats for 1 ru dd in the line it's not true
then, with expert marksman and gun mod 2, gnevny with her 36 sec base half-turn time gets 21.8 sec half-turn, meantime minekaze with her 30 sec keeps her 30 sec because (unless you are a fool) you don't pick neither expert marksman, not gun mod 2 for her

also they are good against other dd.. i recall one memorable game in gnevny how a farragut decided to be a jerk and to light me for cruisers behind her, i took her engine, then took it again and burned her down like a sitting duck and then fled before the cruisers shooting from afar could even hurt me

>>121065143
are you silly? any new game have an influx of players on the release and then most of them quit

>>121065705
They rope in enough new players to counter the bleed of old ones

>>121064845
That pretty much sums it up.

CV balance is completely broken, BBs are borderline broken, DDs become functionally useless vs. CVs, CAs are cannon fodder for each other, BBs and CVs.

The economy is set to maximum overjew.

>>121065705
>and having the worst balancing ever visited upon mankind
Do they have an entire class of vehicles designed to be uncounterable save by the entire team bunching together and playing too defensively to win? Does it have an absurd reliance on RNG with shells firing at impossible angles and constant fires making armor irrelevant? Talking about bad balance in a WoWs thread is throwing stones in a glass house.

>>121065879
It's the same for WoT and to some extent WoWS too.

>>121066371
>Do they have an entire class of vehicles designed to be uncounterable save by the entire team bunching together and playing too defensively to win?
Cold war tanks fighting ww2 tanks. Particularly certain cases in the past when Tiger I and IIs have been expected to beat Is-3s, Is-4, and T-54s all of which gots super-penning heat.

Does it have an absurd reliance on RNG with shells firing at impossible angles and constant fires making armor irrelevant?
Shell performance is extremely inconsistent. Tank crew members will sometimes take AT rounds to the face and live.

>Talking about bad balance in a WoWs thread is throwing stones in a glass house.
Sheeeeeeeeit

>>121065879
I wish WoWs was roping in new players. If you look at the number of new players on Warshipstats (or wherever else monitors people who've had at least 25 battles) it's almost none.

Wargaming doesn't even advertise WoWs, or promote it at events.

If Midway deletes me from the game, I lose -310,000 credits.

If I win, I lose 400,000 credits due to torpedo cost and repairs, netting around 80,000 (usually less). And that's just for a DD. CVs and BBs have 400,000 credit repairs alone.

I'd love to be able to win "big," at least 300,000 credits worth, or more, but I can't. The economy in this game is shit.

It's worse if you play a CV or a BB.

-400,000 repair base, before Ammunition, consumables, and camo.

If you don't have premium, you can lost -690,000 credits in a match if a Midway deletes you from the game (which they will).

>>121082276

Okay then child.

>>121082276
So what you're saying is that by faildivisioning in a CV, you are preferentially screwing over the other team by (likely) pulling in an undiv'd undertiered CV?

Have fun anon, this is what happens when you mess up divisioning.

>>121082345
To be fair, the MM used to treat CVs as the division tier, but I believe that changed with the most recent patch.

And it appears that 0.5.1 will make it even more strict, so if dragging a solo tier 4 CV into a higher match isn't possible now, it probably will be in the future.

Did you even look at the screenshot?
The Ranger was div'd with a tier 8.
MM treated him as a tier 8 CV.
He proceeded to get buttfucked.
MM had no other tier 10s in queue and gave them harder odds of winning.
This isn't rocket science anon. WG is going to try matching CVs strongly, but when you division with them, all bets are off and the worst can happen.

>>121085756
>The Ranger was div'd with a tier 8.

No, that isn't shown. Not yet. MM might not have had any T8/9/10 CVs to work with and the best it could do was a T7 with some extra players. I wouldn't be surprised given the selection of other ships.

I don't even think you're wrong, just that the proof is inadequate.

Musashi was caught in a number of successful Anvil torpedo attacks that scored hits on both sides, which means she went down evenly. On a smaller ship this would have been fine and sunk the ship rapidly, but the Yamatos were big enough that while it was still fatal damage, it just took longer to actually sink. Which is why as >>121082069 said, they just hit Yamato from one side to make her capsize and sink quicker.

>>121084942
>>121084839
only works in eu anyway

>>121086614
did they even think so complicated
i bet they just wanted to score any hit on her not really caring where it lands
it's pretty hard to land a bomd/torpedo from a plane into a ship irl, and then, the fate of musashi was probably the least thing the american pilots thought of during the sortie

>>121086482
Good. That's all I wanted to know.

>>121086949
The USN gained valuable experience from sinking the Musashi and were able to figure out the weaknesses of the Yamato class ships thanks to that.

Her and Izy have taken my daily rating to unicum levels.

If you, as a DD, encounter a cruiser (at ANY range) of the same class and hit him with a torpedo, you're still at a disadvantage

This is balance

>>121095915
same tier*

>>121095915
Not exactly, if you're still not spotted you are still at an advantage.

If I understand this correctly, Pensacola with upgraded guns uses and the New Orleans uses a half decent AP shell. And this also applies to stock Baltimore? Is it true that when you upgrade Baltimore's guns, you get the same shit and slow shell as Des Moines? Why upgrade then?

>>121096124
Right I forgot the small minority of DDs that applies to

Admiral Hipper worth grinding for?

>>121097245
It's worth grinding through.

>>121096861

Because apparently in 5.1, the DM/Balti guns are getting buffed so plunging fire actually fucking works with AP on shit like Yamatos so it wont fucking bounce.

>>121097391
But is it fun? I only wanted the Konigsberg and Admiral Hipper from the German line, and I already have my Konigs.

>>121050382
Prove without any doubt that this camo actually works.

Type 2 camo imo is a placebo. How is WG even calculating this when an enemy ship can move to make a "miss" a "hit". In a game where your target isn't static -4% accuracy is more worthless than snake oil.

>>121097549
I dunno man.

I'm in the Roon now and sometimes it was good with the Hipper and a lot of times it was very frustrating.

Positives:
+Amazing guns
+Decent AA
+Torps
+Reasonable armor

Negatives:
-Kinda slow
-HUGE target. You're as big as a BB.
-Stock HE damage

Technically you can land 6k damage salvos with your AP on Iowas and Yamatos from max range. Technically you can hit 4x citadels on cruisers from just about as far. You can even citadel Amagis from 15km.

But getting your mopey, elongated ass into position to do these things is real difficult.

>>121097862
This. Since they won't release how they calculate when a shot is determined a hit or miss there's no way to prove that Type 2 camo even works. It would make sense that it didn't since there's no way to prove it did since -4% is almost nothing and no amount of games tested could you get a definitive answer.

>>121098370

How about test it in 100 games and see if in a real battle -4% makes any difference whatsoever. Guess what, you can't, because there's too many fucking variables happening all at once when you fire at a target that can not only move in 4 directions but can also change speed.

this of course makes accuracy mod worthless as well. If I remember some anon did like 50 games with an acc mod and actually crunched numbers and found less than .5% difference.

>>121098976
accuracy mod IS worthless anon when there's so much RNG.

>>121098625
>>121098887
what
it's pretty common

>>121102091
Explain the RNG in torpedoes

>>121102424
thats actually one of the only things in the game (save for flooding) that isn't RNG

>>121102424
5% chance of no flooding

>>121102525
except the 5% is a multiplier

so say you had a 50% chance to cause flooding, 5% of 50 is 2.5

so thats a 2.5% reduction which means the torp has a 47.5% chance of causing flooding or otherwise virtually no difference because the slav math is retarded and shit

>>121102670
percentages should always be multipliers

otherwise you're talking about percentage points and that's silly because you get things like Demo Expert which is way way too powerful on low fire chance shells.

>>121102948
>percentages should always be multipliers

except when your multiplier means jack shit

its why the Damage Control upgrade literally doesn't do anything because 3% reduction on chance of fire changes a 20% chance to cause fire to a 19.4% which is virtually nothing.

Bonuses should be additive, not multiplicative

5 torpedoes hit, torp damage is 6167 each. Divide the damage by 5, and each one did something like 3k+

So yeah, torpedoes a shit.

Prem ship, or would it go in a "fuck if I know where this ship belongs" line with Scharnhorst, Graf Spee, and the like?

>>121111948
The proper term is battlekek

>>121112831
except they don't

torps so much as touch you and explode,

>>121112860
Scharnhorst is easy, shes a tier 7. Spee is also easy, shes a perfect tier 6 CA.

the Alaskas would fit fine as tier 7's.

No, it can happen to Hipper but not often because usually when you get hit in a way to lose engne Hipper lose atleast 30k hp too

>>121113049
That completely fictional top hull she has adds bulges

>>121112960
The damage they do is different depending on what ship they're hitting, torpedo bulge protection is modeled to some degree in the game

>>121113102
Yes, well, that's every cruiser ever because you hit their citadel.

>there are people in this game that dont at least try strike loadout on US CVs
I got lectured earlier on how i should be using the fighter loadout and only the fighter loadout while in my independence. I went on to score the second highest XP in game and the guy that was lecturing me was second lowest.

Wow.

Never before have I ever had to question or worry about torpedo damage, because IJN and USN destroyers tend to nuke things they get torp hits on.

Only now, with these russian DD's and their terrible damage torpedoes, has this become an issue to my attention.

Wow.

>>121098625
I can't see whats strange.
With DDs is common to cause little flooding, it's a CVnt mechanic mostly

>>121113317

>implying i get just one good game
I usually am near the top with the strike loadout, i tried the fighter loadout for a few games, but i didnt like it and i felt like i was doing nothing for the team. However with strike, i can provide better support for my ships.

>>121113419

Thats the other edge of the sword, but its still a sword your getting stabbed with.

>>121113373
IJN and USN rarely do.

See that 0.45x consistent damage affecting the first threshold?

A Shimakaze does 17k damage per torpedo, that's with ingame stats. For the second threshold, it's 0.45x of 17k per torpedo which drastically reduces the damage.

First threshold is also reached fast, like a few shells is enough to get the section into it's first threshold.

>>121113373
its shitty slav programming
