positive win rate at least
could be worse
Would WoWS be improved if longrange cits became impossible unless you have true plunging fire? I've felt like a list of things could improve gameplay alot.
1. Implement shell dispersion over longer ranges. The further away to your max range the larger the dispersion. If you're shooting to 20km+ your shots have a 1km radius they can fall inside. Inside 50% of your weapon range the dispersion is 1/4 the amount at max range. Inside 25% the dispersion is very minor, about what we see now or less.
2. AA becomes a straight DPS race against airplane HP. No more randomisation. Either you blob and have enough AA to chew up planes or you solo and get dunked.
3. Aircraft - these now show white dotted lines as waypoints indicating and intended lane of travel. You can grab and drag this line like editing a bendy-line in mspaint. Aircraft get differentiated further based on racial values, with burger planes being very tough and slow with lower flight numbers like 5 planes per squadron. They boast high manueverability when compared like for like against nip planes. Nip squadrons are 8+ per squadron, comparatively fast but low hp. USN are more accurate and higher damage, jap planes get less damage and are less accurate, but have conforming torp lanes and their bombs set more fires. USN planes get cone torp lanes and their bombs can cit on CA/CL and CVs. They get more disables on BB.
4. DD have reduced gun ranges but are more accurate. Russ DDs get CL levels of armour and have max 4.5km torp range. nippon DDs retain long range torps. USN DD get bonuses to spotting and very good agility.
5. Armour is reworked so that long range shots (unless plunging AP) almost never do damage, a damage falloff calculation is entered for distance traveled for all shells. HE loses effectiveness at fires over long ranges. Armour now calculates more strictly against AP, citadels are rare to score >5km.
Key to all of this is closing down the value of sniping. Cits become a reward of risk.

How are CAs going to counter BBs in this case
>>145847123
nice stats m80
so this is where you got all of your practice for shitting on nerds on NA :^)
>>145847261
I don't play NA? Never have.
I haven't played this game in at least 104 days according to that site which is about correct I guess. I'm tempted to download it but god damn why don't they just provide install files from the website instead of using yet another shitty launcher.
>>145846282
>>145847260
You support being able to chump a BB down by refusing to get in range of it? WoWS biggest problem centrally is ships shooting from 15km+ away and still landing tons of hits. Which is why niggers still hug islands like it's going out of fashion.

I wish I could have stats that good. It would mean I'm not getting TKed or sniped at spawn or having retard gook fucks that are impossible to coordinate with.
They needed to make an oceania server just for AU/NZ and leave the gooks to their own server. They might still have a playerbase then. Most of the population decline would be coming from frustration at the lack of a common language. Why else EU and rus have different servers?
>>145847260
CAs aren't supposed to counter BBs, in their infinite wisdom WG decided to go the rock paper scissors route of balancing where each class does poorly against some stuff and well against others. if they want to stick to that, then there's not supposed to be a way for everything to hard-counter everything else.
>>145847668
you can make guns more inaccurate at range and all it's going to do is make sure games end by timing out more often.
people are always going to stick to their maximum range because they're more scared of getting melted than they are of not being able to do damage, and thanks to the fact that armor is pretty much meaningless outside of BB v BB duels and some CA v CA duels nobody wants to close distance because it just means they'll be focused and melted while their team sits back at max range.
>>145848009
because in WoT RU has a ridiculously huge amount of players, and EU is the 2nd biggest server by far, so it's a hell of a lot easier to just have separate clusters
if it were language based then EU would be split up
>>145848205
I anticipated this response and my rebuttal is thus:
The population of Russia - 143mil
Population EU - 742mil
population SEA (excluding AU/NZ) approx 280mil
Population AU/NZ combined approx 31mil
Sooo while AU/NZ aren't big enough to warrent their own server from a purely numbers perspective - when you consider primary and secondary languages
Rus - ??
EU - german/french/english?
SEA - cantonese/japanese?
AU/NZ - englishwith extremely poor german/french/japanese as secondary languages.
In brief geologically speaking AU/NZ would have been better off as its own region purely for linguistic reasons, SEA as its own region for the same thing. Cantonese is overwhelmingly their strongest second language, they don't want to/need to learn english and forcing english speakers to work with SEA was a doomed venture from the beginning.
Also, 3 man divs max? WTF is this.
>>145848574
>Sooo while AU/NZ aren't big enough to warrent their own server from a purely numbers perspective
That's the single biggest reason why such a server doesn't exist.
The KR server shut down precisely because of this; Initially the koreans had argued for their own server, but it failed and got merged with SEA recently because there weren't enough players
>>145848574
I'm a little curious where you got those number from, because SEA (as far as the region that the server currently covers, the traditional SEA region + Japan/Korea/Taiwan/Aus/NZ) contains closer to 800 million people
and yet it still gets barely over 10k players during peak hour on most days, it really doesn't matter at all what kind of linguistic barriers there are, a region with a population of like 30 million just splitting off will just lead to a dead server that's borderline unplayable for people who want to play high tier games, even at peak hour
having an OCE region (basically just Au/NZ) barely works for other games with far higher populations, so the unfortunate reality for the english speaking countries is that they either have to play on the boxes server, or play on NA
>>145849073
Back in the days of BF2 there was like 50,000 players in AU/NZ. Better games retain higher player counts.
KR has stronger competition from certain games sucking up their time like starcraft and many other MMO's with more polish.
AU/NZ has really gone downhill in terms of fun-factor since random matchmaking became a thing. I strongly support dedicated hosted servers for games for at least one single reason: the community that develops around those servers. Giving players a place they can call home makes them care more. Matchmaking is one of the worst things you can do for a purely PVP game and it's why things like ranked CSGO is one of the most miserable places to be because griefers never get the penalties they deserve and shitters can get carried to ranks they don't deserve.
Extrapolate to WOWS, getting tier 10 is simply an exercise in time spent. Getting ranked 1 in ranked (or team battles) requires effort and some skill. Random battle with people you can't talk to when you're 31/770th of the potential population of a server is going to make you quit.
>>145846282
>main battery guns hit ratio 21%
> torpedo hit ratio 1%
wew lad
>>145849693
Even ignoring the fact that a WW2 bote games are a much more niche market than FPS, I seriously doubt that Au/NZ alone had 50,000 concurrent players on a single game.
The fact is that SEA's highest ever concurrent player population was a bit over 27k, which would include this magical population of players who have since quit. Games like LoL, which have significantly larger playerbases than either WoWs or WoT can only just sustain an Au/NZ server, and they still have to shut most of the game mode queue's down at night because of lack of players and even the active ones can have queue times of quite literally 3-4 hours to find a match with 10 people. I have trouble getting a T10 match that isn't completely fucked up outside of peak hour as it is on SEA.
It really doesn't matter what you think, even with stupidly high player retention the game is just absolutely not big enough to have a dedicated Au/NZ server.
>>145848574
>population SEA (excluding AU/NZ) approx 280mil
Where the fuck did you even get this number from? Indonesia alone has 250mil people, and SEA covers the entirety of the western Pacific including all of East Asia that's not mainland China. Australia and New Zealand combined have a population of around 28mil.
AU/NZ make up barely 3.3% of the population of the region that the SEA server covers, according to WG's API, the average population for SEA for the last week was about 5100, if we smash all those numbers into a calculator, which admittedly probably isn't an exact representation of what would really happen but it works to get the general idea, a server for just Australia and New Zealand would have an average population of less than 200.
Good fucking luck getting a game at just about any tier with that kind of player numbers.
>>145851414
>>145852420
What you're both describing might be an issue with F2P games in general :)
Maybe putting everyone through a meatgrinder isn't the best business model after all.
>>145853943
I wouldn't say that it's specifically f2p in general, stuff like LoL and Dota2 don't seem to have trouble with having more than 4 server regions. Hell even WoT gets a lot more players than WoWs does.
Problem is that it's a relatively new game that's not remotely complete compared to WoT, and it's for a more niche market, as well as being in a content drought and having pretty sever end-game problems at the moment.
And I'm pretty used to getting shafted when it comes to online multiplayer stuff, coming from a region that's culturally and geographically isolated and has less than a 10th the population of the US leads to this happening a lot.
Was looking at downloading the game but reading the NA forums I'm not sure it's worth the trouble. This game has 99 problems and botes ain't one.
>>145855934
Doing yourself a favor.
They've been progressively removing the fun since beta.
>>145855934
The more I read the less I care. Just look at the forums for aircraft carriers and see how half of them aren't worth even buying.

>>145856062
>since beta
longer than that m80
>>145856067
The CVnts are all still asspained because they were broken beyond belief for a year and actually thought that this complete CV dominance was intended.
When the balancing came, and roughly half of the carriers stopped being 'click on enemy to win', the butthurt transcended time and space.
Of course, WG went full retard and proceeded to make all US carriers pretty much unplayable in the next patch, they're now useless because their loadouts are shit.
Honestly, low and mid-tier ships are still super super-fun. It's just tier 9 and 10 where the fun goes to die. It's not like there's even Clan Wars implemented, so who the fuck cares about tier 9 and 10?

Sounds like fun to me. Sniping on the blueline is for baBBies.

What the fuck is even the point of low-mid tier American BB's anymore. German ones are going to be better for brawling in literally every way.
>>145873214
Will they have okay secondaries?
>>145873415
They will all have Warspite tier secondaries, but more of them.
>>145873415
That's a bit in 'not sure yet' territory, because we do not know the range WG will give their secondaries.
Most will have 7 or 8 15 cm (casemate) guns per broadside, plus a bunch of 8.8 cm guns.
If they get the same ranges we see on Tirpitz right now, they'll be good barwlers to at least t6.
They all ahd rather tight turning radii, and most sources state that they were wuick to begin turns, but lost lots of speed during turns. Which is something we already see in Tirpitz, so I guess this will be one of this line's characteristics.
So I just unlocked my New York, for second upgrade do I take MBM2 or Artillery Plotting?

It depends on the kind of missile. The lighter anti ship missiles are pretty much useless against battleship armor. Of course they can do retarded haxing shit like swoop down directly into the stack or something and detonate a boiler.
Its very hard to sink a battleship though unless its magazine explodes or you have many hours to wait around and hope damage control fails.

The only reason the Japanese joined in was because they wanted to grab a bunch of land from the German colonies in the Pacific that were being guarded by less than 10,000 total troops and colonials with no naval support.
We joined in at the end and then wrote a treaty that made you scrap most of your battle cruisers and battleships, and you agreed to it.
Britcucks are the worst.

>>145880747
Depends on the missile. It would easilly survive the common ones you see in the middle east like the Excocet, C-802, or aircraft carried ones like the Sea Eagle.
Those small one will easilly sink unarmored ships like pic related, but the warhead size caries the power of an 8in HE shell at best, and wont do shit to an armored battlehship.
However, battleship armor wont hold up against large anti-ship missiles like the Russian shipwreck or the chinese carrier killer missile.
So basically, battleships are much better protected against smaller and medium sized anti-ship missles, but large land based and ship based anti-ship missiles will easily sink one
>>145883357
What I find funny is all the turrets and AA guns and shit on the ships are all separate models from the main model and easily rearranged.
Yet they are still to fucking lazy to even move those around on the reskinned ships to make them unique. A big example I can think of is how they didnt even bother to add the extra turret on the marblehead.
>>145891942
assuming either of those missiles can hit it. Both require satellite updates based off imaging. The russian system has been defunct since the 90's while chinks gliders attached to short range ballistic missiles are of questionable accuracy considering they go orbital. Probably only slightly more accurate than a scud
>>145892186
Probably one of the few reasons the US might consider re-activating the Iowa BB's is their armor. Would be good at putting down kebabs and their shitty anti-ship missiles
>>145891136
>Heh we locked you cucks into a bad deal for You we already had 16in high elevation guns
We completed our entire class of 16" armed battleships before you had even finalized the designs of the Nelsons. Then you went and built them and found out that you had created some of the worst handling ships of all time, complete with bad guns and unreliable turrets.
> You cuks couldn't pull off jack shit untill the fucking 40's I mean shit how inept can you be.
You fucked up the Nelsons badly and then didn't build anything else for 15 years. Just look at your KGV's, what a clusterfuck. Unreliable retarded quad-double turret layout? Check. Shit TDS design? Check. Terribad AA battery? Check. Horrible fuel economy? Check. Terrible maneuverability? Check.
Meanwhile we roll out the North Carolina's and South Dakotas, which are better in every way AND weigh less.
>Meanwhile britania ruled the waves.
Where? Your Grand Fleet was too poor to ever even modernize most of your capital ships, and your Navies crowning achievement was an overgrown battle-cruiser with shit protection levels and guns from 1912.
>Hell you niggers got your shit pushed in by the nips until Brits taught you basic math and how to not encode messages like a fuckhead
You were too busy being scared shitless by a Navy 1/10th the size of yours with 4 whole battleships. You were so fucking terrified that you were trading bases around the world for destroyers we had built in 1920 for convoy escorts. You were literally sucking our dicks and going "OH YES, PLEASE GIVE US MORE CLEMSONS AMERICA, WE'LL GIVE YOU ANYTHING".
And then you went and sent Force Z to fight the Japs, which got publicly BTFO and made you look like retards.
Meanwhile we Midway'd, we Coral Sea'd, and we Guadalcanal'd the entire Jap fleet.

The Nelsons were terrible, absolutely fucking terrible sea ships that couldn't even fucking sail in a straight line. It took you nearly 5 years to figure out how to fix the turrets, the guns never managed a firing cycle quicker than 45 seconds because of your shitty fucking shell hoists, and the guns themselves were WORSE than the 15" guns they were supposed to be replacing! No to mention how whenever you fired the guns at certain angles, you literally broke parts of the ship, an issue which was never entirely solved, even with structural reinforcement.
>Especially when the collorado was garbage in everyway and only came about through exteeme despiration to move past 14in meanwhile 15in superiority remained.
The Colorado class was a logical design continuation of the standard type family. It took a tried and true base design from the Tennessee class, and improved upon it by adding high quality and high performance 16" guns. There never was a "15" superiority". American 14" guns at the time had similar if not outright superior ballistic qualities, and each ship had 4 more guns than the equivalent 15" armed Britbong.
>Took till the fucking 40's for america to even attempt to make a treaty ship that even came close to the nelson. even then they were fat and inelegant garbage
KGV's weren't in commission until 1940 either smartarse. We had already matched the Nelsons 4 years before they had been built with the Colorado's, and the North Carolinas and South Dakotas were in a league of their own in terms of firepower, range, protection and mobility compared to the inefficient KGV's.

they were efficient, sleek and well rounded designs that perfectly fit the role they were designed for. Different from the KGV's with their limited range, bad maneuverability and boilers that had so much steam leaking out of the pipes than was going in to turn the turbines.
>Everything else the US had was 14in trash from the 20's.
Except for those three perfectly functional Colorados.
>The Colorado were never a match for the nelson. ever not in gun armor or speed let alone accuracy or firepower
Colorados were a whole knot slower, had better designed protection, more reliable guns and shell hoists, and a considerable advantage in maneuverability and range.

>Murricuks didn't even have a basic autloader on BBs.
Every single battleship ever made after 1912 had basic assisted loading dipshit, even the Russian ones. We were the only nation to ever truly perfect a large caliber fully automatic loading gun with the Des Moine's.
>Come back to me when your Iowa shit doesn't just randomly blow turrets in the fucking 80's friendo

Assisted loading =/= autloading. What you are showing is just the ramming process, which was the same on nearly every ship since before WW1. There still a crew in the magazine and power room putting shells and bags on the hoists. There still 40 men in the turret itself undertaking the actual loading operations with the ramming mechanism. Your .gif just doesn't show any of the people anywhere. Do you really think shells are just magically levitating into the hoists?
The 8" guns on Des Moines were the first truly auto-loaded guns. There is no turret crew apart from those in a separate compartment in charge of fire control.
>Making up shit at this point is getting pathetics. Everyone loved the british design aesthetic so much so that the nips begged for dat english cock over it
The nips literally could not build their own battleships until 1914, of course they were buying ships from the Bongs who were just whoring themselves out to everyone, even the Russians. As soon as they could, they dumped the Bongs like the trash they were.
>So litteraly what happed to the iowa Really stumping yourself hard there m8
The explosion in Iowas turret happened during gunnery practice with 60 year old powder which was very sensitive. On the bright side, the whole ship didn't explode, unlike a British one would have.

Why your Nagato avg damage is so low, but WR and avg exp is so high? Were you hunting cruisers in it?

DO WANT. Bullying cruisers and lower-tier BBs in this would feel so good. And when you're bottom tier, you'd just switch over to CA mode and be the HEcancer.

>>145904132
Also, did I read that right? Both types of secondaries fire HE? Out to a range of 5km and 4.5km completely unbuffed and without captain skills? Unless she's completely lacking in the number of secondaries, this would be a brawling monster.

Proofs?
>>145904049
have you tried becoming HE cancer? IJN cruiser are somewhat forgiving and can teach thing or two about playing BB.
1) Aim at waterline and shoot AP at anything that has citadel, and shows a broadside
2) Never show your own citadel.
That's about it.
Also try to find some good player in wows chat, he may show you what's wrong with how you play this game.
>>145904376

Oh, and. One more thing.
If you take manual AA, long range would have 301 DPS.
Who cares, though, CV are nonexistent.
>>145903619
>its been 44 years since a man has walked on the moon
Fuck this gay earth
>>145905330
I actually did this on my Tirpitz, the 105's do a shitload of AA damage and it just melts anything that comes near it, even if it's higher tier.
Although for some ungodly reason every time I play it and there's a CV in the game they spend the entire match making a beeline for me despite the fact that I'm just massacring their planes.
Pretty fun desu.
>>145904895
I haven't tried the HE thing, I seem to have better luck just spraying AP at everything.
I hang out in VG a lot and div every once in a while with those folks. Raptor has taught me some things.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ljgouUqChoI
>>145905815
You should try to use some HE, if you are a cruiser.
>>145905809
Sharnhorst should have 10% less AA DPS, while being a tier lower. This is a perfect cruiser hunter.
>>145905335
This is the the future you chose.
>kirov
>shoot ap into omaha 5km away
>all shells hit, right into his center broadside
>3k damage
>>145905809
You can do the same thing in a Roon.
Most CVs seem to think 'German ship = easy damage'
>>145905330
Wouldn't long range AA be 232?
>>145907056
You forget that you also get additional 30% buff when you select target.
Btw, with 12 (4*2 +4*1; that's 6 per side) 150mm guns and 14 (7*2; 6 per side, and 2 that shoot both sides) 105mm guns you can get her secondaries up to 6.5km range. You can get up to 14 secondaries per side (Nagato get only 13 though with longer range, but not as many fire starters). With turtleback armor and torps, she IMO has some brawling potential.
>>145907056
Maybe he's erroneously counting the pitiful german 37mm SK, which account for 30 dps and it's 8 of them.
To bad demolition expert doesn't upgrade secondaries.
>>145908018
Most German ships will end up with similar secondary firepower.
Which handily answers why secondaries will be nerfed in the upcoming patch.

>>145908857
Weren't they evaluating to buff secondaries?
Both RU and EU playerbase agree on that if i recall correctly.
Also i'd like to state that i'm not a baBBy, however secondaries really must get more range and a bit of accuracy at least below the 5km mark.
Another thing i'd like to see is fires size proportional to gun calibers, so that DDs can't lit fires as strong as CAs.
>>145909379
FUCK
what I meant to post was the rrudder shift time part
It's going to be like a t7 version of the Tirpitz, and it'll be really maneuverable like Nagato.
>>145909379
WANT
Why the price is in gold tho?
And also, didn't they mention some time ago that german BBs wouldn't have been equipped with torpedoes?
>>145909627
With upgrade rudder shift is somewhere around 11.4 seconds. Could be worse.
>>145909839
Because it's possibly leaked stats for PREMIUM ship. While 0 torps are for normal ships in line.
Night wowsg
>>145910107
But wasn't the Schatnhorst the lead ship of the class?
Another possible explanation is that on the jews chinese servers players can buy any ship for gold, without grinding.
That's according to some random comment on the page you provided.
>>145910528
Go back to ESL
>>145910627
What?
>>145910627
>heh tough luck kid I saw that typo
>>145910528
Technically Gneisenau was laid down and Commissioned first. This, and fact that Sharnhorst is more famous, leads me to believe, that WG is simply going to cash in on famous name.
This IS WG we are talking about.
>>145910528
Of course those stats could be completely made up, as I already mentioned.
>It can be as legit as "Abibas". So, cool down the hype train.
>>145910528
The reason why they do it this way is that Gneisenau was scheduled to receive the 38cm guns (her forward magazine had exploded from a bomb hit and she was in drydock because of that).
>>145911194
I don't think there's a place left for another premium german BB, especially not a tier VII one that is very similar to the Tirpitz except for the main weapons.
But yeah, they could release it at the launch of german BB line to cash on those who didn't buy the Tirpitz back then.
Still seems a bit redundant, however that's WG we're talking about.
>>145912190
Are we talking about the same 38 cm turrets found on the Bismarck?

Is the Omaha any good? The Phoenix is making me reconsider USN CAs.
>that arc
>that shell speed
>trying to hit CAs at 9-11km requires you to put them beyond the end of the indicator
>>145913242
Has to be fake.
Or maybe the end times are upon us.
>>145913631
If the shell speed and arcs are what's killing it for you, then give up on the line completely. USN DDs get like that too at ranges beyond 7km.
>>145913631
Omaha is pretty based.
Cleveland has shit arcs, too.
Pepsi and NO are better, but most other cruisers have better arcs.
>>145913631
if that's what you don't like about them then you'd probably be better off with a different line
>>145913842
Honestly, as long as the cannons stop shooting straight fucking up I'd be fine.
>>145914235
It has been a while since i've played Omaha but if i remember correctly Cleveland has even worse arcs.
>>145912408
Yes.
>>145910528
>>145912190
I guarantee that they'll do the same shit with Scharnhorst that they did with the Bismarck. Or am I the only one that remembers when the Tirpitz stats were leaked and everyone got their panties in a twist because it was labeled Bismarck in the files?.

Invisifiring definitely works on Ibuki. The problem with her is the same problem you have in all high-tier cruisers, which is that the gameplay becomes super fucking dull. "Hold down LMB at targets greater than 16.5km away for 20 minutes" is maximum zzzzzzzzzzzzzz. The knifefighting and anti-DD picket roles you could fill of previous tiers all but disappears.
I did okay in her and won a fair bit and farmed a fair number of Arsonist medals, but I pretty much hated every single game I played.

Well funnily enough I was about to ask this anyway, should I just get the range upgrade before the hull on the Ibuki? Normally I'd go hull for the HP and other bonuses but I spend most of my time sitting back like a bitch trying to invisifire anyway, and the times where I'm taking a bunch of hits is usually when everything has gone horribly wrong and it's beyond the point where the extra 4k HP would really save me, plus the AA upgrade doesn't seem like it's much use.
So far I'm enjoying it way more than my previous gameplay, which was basically nothing but T8/9/10 BBs. I just ended up really disliking it because while I like to attempt to play on the front lines trying to push, it felt like I was having to rely on my teammates for support so as not to just get swarmed to actually play the way I wanted, which for someone who just plays solo wasn't terribly fun.

>hull upgrade
The little bit of HP is nice, but I generally value the decrease in rudder shift time more on all my botes. "Generally". The nature of the gameplay for high-tier cruisers makes it that it's less important than increasing your invisifiring bubble. Go for range first, then hulls.
I always enjoyed killing cruisers and DDs most in my cruisers, so hitting Ibuki was very much a disappointment for me.
>>145959235
Yes. Range is crucial for teh crusiers at t9 and t10, because as soone as you get seen everyone will focus you.
You represent easy damage compared to some bow-on-1/4 baBBy.
The best step would probably be using free XP to get the hull and FCS, playing cruisers at t9 without range and with a slow rudder is completely unfun.
Ibuki has the advanatage of being pretty invisible, though.
I like her.
>>145959416

I can see why cruisers are so popular. I mean hell, the Zao outdamages the average Montana.

>>145990549
But Zao is a pretty exceptional case.
And while Moskva is shaping up to be almost as good, DM and Hindenburger are mediocre at best, complete shit at worst.
>>145985620
This is why I've moved on from playing mostly BB's to playing mostly cruisers. Cruisers are just so much more easier and comfier to play, and get good results anyway. I have a 67% WR on BB's, 69% on cruisers.
>>145991978
>DM
>bad
The AP is amazing, and radar coupled with the autoloader RoF makes it the perfect anti-DD cruiser.Granted, I don't have a Zao, yet. But playing DM is much more fun than playing either Yamato or Iowa.
>>145992342
Well, pretty much everything is more fun than being slow, with slow reloads and slow turrets.
But statistics say Dank Meme is pretty much shit, right along with the Hindenburger. Noticeably lower WR and damage than the other cruisers.
>>145991978
Zao needs to have its HE nerfed slightly and its AP nerfed greatly. Afaik it has great AP at flat angles and amazing HP that can do 10k+ salvos on Baltimores.

You get used to it. Sure, you do get citadel'd by stray shells from time to time, but most of the time you outright avoid getting shot at, juke and evade incoming shells, or get lucky and get a slap in the hand by way of overpens.
Meanwhile you keep outputting tons of skill-less HE fire in the general direction of the enemy for great DPM.

>>146006490
>kilomilliseconds
>>146006297
Either get first the B hull for better rudder shift or propulsion to be more faster.
Don't show your belly at the enemy and try to mind game DDs so you won't be a sweet target for their torps. Wyoming is good on knife fights but mind the slow ass turrets, she can snipe too but that will take you to git gud and RNG blessing. AP all the way but mind the long reload, trigger dicipline will be your mantra, if a fuckboy shows his belly aim and fire for full freedom. If that fucker is a BB, wait for him to miss all his salvo because you were pointing your bow at him, turn around and show him some American diplomacy.
for DDs, if they get too close to you your either fucked up or you are alone with no CA around. Load HE and prey RNGesus to be at your side.

Detailed report
plus give some tips on battleship plays when range is 25km(with the scout plane up, 21km for Kongo since Kirishima is a Kongo)
>>146006297
>>146008047
Also, start to get used with the citadel mechanic, think of it as the "critical" damage. Aim at the waterline to reach that shit and watch that enemy health bar drop. And thats when the fun starts. Wyoming can citadel but your enemy is not that braindead, they will try to dodge your salvos and the more distance between you and them, more seconds for them to react, so if your prey is far away from you aim for the body, point your bow at them as you close the gap or use islands as cover, if you get close, like 9 or 10 km., test your skills and luck and start to hunt those citadel badges. Use premium comsumables, think twice about your moves and decicions and start to use the info that the game gives you. Playing BBs is like chess, make a wrong move and you will suck dick. USN BBs are good to tank damage so don't be a coward and push for your team but remember that most of them don't know shit about botes so don't expect miracles from them.

It's not a massive difference, but to me the ~44k XP shorter grind for what I already knew was a better ship is what basically the entire reason I chose to go for the Zao instead of the Hind.

Is it worth going up the IJN cruisers line? I'm right now at Kuma and while the DPS and range are nice for doing easy 60k per battles, the ship just falls in shambles as soon as anything hits it. Will the Furutaka and higher tiers be different in any way?
>>146027496
Furutaka and up are heavy cruisers. Kuma is light. Your sides will always be made of paper, but you can survive a lot of punishment from the front and back if you angle right.
>someone likes Yura enough to name themselves after her
???????
>>146027496
They'll get nuked whenever BBs get good shots on them but it's the same for every cruiser line, they're probably one of the better survivability lines because they have enough armor to not get ruined by non-BB shells (and a few shells while angled) so long as you don't do dumb things like sitting broadside on, and they get good concealment.
They're definitely worth going up, especially if you haven't played much in the way of cruisers before.
Stock Kiev is pretty good.

he was sitting still in a smoke screen in front of two other DDs
Is there any other way to play battleships in this Supremacy game other then just going bow on and slugging it out with the other BB's?

Doubt it.
What else can they do? Pushing up risks getting focused from multiple angles by shells and torps, and whoever is out the front is going is going to get melted.
Sitting back bow on gives the best survivability and allows friendlies to smoke for you to keep you alive.
