Caring about winning... jeez when are you guys gona grow up...

What's the deal with stats in this game and some player's overly emotional attachment to them? Is this the first game that tracks stats they've ever played? Cause the reality is you probably won't be playing this game in 3-5 years (move on, server shuts down ect), the stats dont matter, as in, you gain nothing from having good stats or even playing well (other than faster advancement through the tiers), maybe a little in ranked but even then its not that hard to be a shitter and reach rank 1. So why the attachment to the stats?

What the fuck? I thought US DD's were weird being so dependent on gunboating but now 2 gunboat lines...making me think torp DD's aren't going to be a thing beyond that one Jap line.

Any tips for Russian DD's? I like their setup the best.

>>155085259
>Any tips for Russian DD's

Why are these stupid russian cruisers as big a battleships with gigantic citadels just begging to be penned from across the map?

Just.. gunboat.. its braindead.

>>155085547
yea. thats litteraly the meta russians like the most. wg thought that would make them popular if they made them blatantly op compared to other cruisers. unfortunately cruisers were a mistake and they are all bad by existing

And launching torpedoes where the marker tells you isn't? At least one of them involves you being visible.

>>155085740
>where the marker tells you
I swear to god if there's some magical marker that just tells you where to torp to hit somebody that I didn't know about I don't know weather to hate myself for being stupid because I've always eyeballed it, or hate the devs for putting something like that in the game.

It would explain the miracle torp spreads against me though if there's a fucking auto aim for torps.

>>155085259
SN DDs play like US DDs until T4. From T5 onwards it's about keeping the range open, harassing bigger ships and using your speed to dodge. Their AP is also potent enough to rek broadsiding cruisers up to around 10 km.

that 1 hp left feel.

>>155085961
...you didnt know? Its the most obvious thing about using torpedoes
As long as you have an enemy targeted, the game calculates where you should launch your torps if you want to hit them, as long as they go the same speed and heading

>>155085961
Are you fucking serious?

whats the damage mod that keeps track of damage done

>>155085740
For fucks sake I didn't say they weren't braindead either.

>>155086185
Its called the settings menu. You should try it.

>>155086120
Which is worthless if your targets are not potatoes, so you have to eyeball it and guess how much they are going to turn/slow/speed up etc anyways.

>>155086442
i still use it as a guideline and just end up spreading my torps slightly ahead and slightly behind while they cover the marker.

Is anyone playing at the Asia server at all? I'm at /vg/ channel which is empty and SEAMAN is dead as fuck.

>>155086714
if you want to play with /vg/ head to NA or EU, depending on what time you're active/lag issues

>>155094043
There's a higher daily peak, but about 20k less total active players according to the medals from the anniversary event.

>>155092764
For the static crosshair each big/numbered pip is how much distance a ship moving 20 knots would cover in 1 second at max zoom. The static does not adjust for zooming out, but a single zoom out seems make each pip roughly equal to 30 knots/pip.

From there its just using the stopwatch shell flight time and multiplying it by the speed of the target, ie 20 knot target its 1 to 1 , 30 knot target multiply shell flight by 1.5 for how many pips to lead, 40 knots its double shell flight time etc.

The dynamic is set at 30 knots/pip, and adjusts how many are visible based on the zoom level.

The notser video on aiming covers it i better than i can explain.

king tell me what happened :^)

Unfucking 5 like they did 3 and 4 will mean tiers 6 and 7 will get fucked. Continuing with +-1 up the line will just leave 10 fucked. Oh wait, it already is. Go ahead and do it, Wargaming.
But I think they like making 5 less viable for credits grinding while increasing the value of tier 6 and 7 premiums.

What's the point of USN?

CA/CLs get outeverythinged by every other line
DDs get outgunboted by )))))
Why do I even bother?

>>155102406
the DDs are better at closer ranges, and despite the IJN supposedly being the torpedo line the higher tier US DDs are actually better torpedo boats.

>>155102486
So if I want to burgerboo properly I should just stick to DDs?

>>155102570
Pretty much, they're probably the best 'all-rounder' line of them, it's just that the Russians have the gunnery advantage at longer ranges.
The BBs aren't that bad either, they're a pretty decent mix between the other lines without as much of either's weaknesses at the different ranges because they tend to have better protection than the Japs and better longer range performance than the Krauts. They just don't excel at either area but that doesn't make them particularly bad or anything.

>>155102406
> BBs get outbrawled by nazis and outsniped by nips
No
> CA/CLs get outeverythinged by every other line

I like the US for fighter setup but you can barely do any damage where as JPN has weaker fighters but more chance to do more damage.

US Fighter-spec = braindead obese burger-eating rednecks, the carrier may as well be a giant mobility scooter. If all you can do is lazily click enemy planes with your fat, cheeto-stained american fingers, then this ship line is for you. Much like the boat's drivers, USN CVs are betas incapable of having sex with a woman, they can't dictate the terms of any engagement, they can only respond to an enemy CV's actions, while also being next to useless for causing damage to the 90% of the enemy team that doesn't rely on planes to do anything.

IJN CVs require you to have at least one brain cell and to play patiently, because you will be matched against burger CVs who are so stupid most of the time that you can repeatedly lure them over friendly AA and watch their planes disintegrate. IJN CVs are honorable samurai of the sea, patient warriors capable of playing in a team who play tactically and outsmart their lumbering diabetic american counterparts, while also dumpstering enemy ships with their planes that can actually do damage to ships.

It is true, i find that if it is all US CV then fighters all the time and i just spot in the end, if against JPN then it is about trying to defend my team and that is it mostly which i do well and get all his planes but they have caused some damage.

>>155107928
50% maybe?

>>155108056
Yea i know this but would having no citadels improve the line considering no smoke, HE or anything useful mayabe apart from extreme AP to damage BB with but have to get close enough to use it.

Underwater would be cool even though can still hit the citadel if you can aim and rng on your side.

Considering who WG is more likely to listen to, they probably made cruisers useless in the first place.

HE spamming relies on setting fires, which can cuck you hard, and AP is meh most of the time.

An IJN premium CV is confirmed for 2017. Another USN one too, and it sounds like Graf Zeppelin as well. There'll probably be a carrier rework before they release since the devs keep talking about how unhappy they are with CVs at the moment. The thing about the Saipan is that you really need a 15 point captain to bring out its true potential.

>>155119363
It is the fire mechanic not HE, that just happens to be the cause but fires can just happen like with the Kutuzov which happens to be a RU boat and sets smoke and fires with every fucking volley.

Problem is baBBies hate fire because it can actually cause damage.

>>155119961
Cruisers get fucked by fires harder than BBs, because if they get a single uncontrolled fire its a guaranteed 20% health loss and they don't have a heal to recover that health.

They should have just given cruisers 1 charge of heal from T6+, and T9/Atago get 2 or 3 charges stock.

At high tier 5 DD and 5 BB is typical battle, middle and low level cruisers.

Also lincor players crying about destroyers, fires and aircraft, may thinks that class susk, but it still one of most popular.

>>155118467
Yept, but Zao have abillity to kill battleships, she is most popular 10 tier cruiser.

>>155120640
>What else are you gonna get? Expert Loader?
Yeah, it'd be crazy to get expert loader on stealthy ships with strong guns and long reloads. You should just fire your HE and give away your position, because extra damage is worth it. Or maybe wait 15 seconds to swap ammo and lose your chance at a broadsiding cruiser. All the while remembering your powerful 10% bonus AA on your ship whose AA might as well be sailors on the deck with pistols.

If you don't shoot at the target, he will constantly be bow on you.

If you keep shooting HE, he'll turn and try to get away but you'll have AP loaded much faster which will give you one or two salvos on his broadside which can take down a tier 10 full hp cruiser.

fucking retard

Basics of Survivability or Basic Firing Training on BB's?

>>155120640
Shorter DCP is still better, since you don't have any way to repair fire damage like battleships do. Having that shorter DCP can save your fucking ass if you're getting HE spammed.

Meanwhile, BFT doesn't affect Kuma's 140s, cruiser secondaries are generally useless, and the AA DPS buff is barely noticeable especially on anything below T7-T8.

The only ships that should really take BFT as first skill are destroyers and some low tier cruisers like the 130mm Bogatyr or Svietlana, since it affects their main battery.

>>155120824
Even 1 charge is wasted since rng can roll fire again.

The whole mechanic needs to change, maybe make deck fires weaker, internal fires can be cut off or even sprinkler systems/flooding areas to quash the fire.

>>155121252
And cruisers take time to turn, so if you seem him start to turn away, you press 1 once, hit him with HE, and have a salvo of AP ready to go right as he's broadside.

>>155121403
>Kuma
I'm assuming that anon means for his captain to go up the IJN CA line. Obviously, if he's building a dedicated Kuma clubber, that's different.

I'd disagree that the AA buff is hardly noticeable. Air-dropped still hurt, and even killing one extra TB makes a world of difference.

>shorter DCP
Uh. You do know we're talking about BoS, right? That's the one that makes fires burn for slightly shorter. The shorter DCP cooldown skill is HA down at 3 points.

>>155121684
>you press 1 once
Fuck. 2. You press 2 once.

>>155121684
>constantly switching between AP and HE after each salvo

too predictable, you are a shitter

>>155121659
at least you could safely ignore a single fire per game with 1 charge of heal, unlike now when you are nearly forced to DCP single fires becuase they do so much damage.

>>155121842
I want you to point out where I said I do that. Or are you pretending to not know what the word "if" means and baiting me into having an autism smackdown?

>>155121302
BoS
You're going to get set on fire a lot and getting lowered times on those without having to use DC is really nice.

But besides fagtor being in them...they have just gotten lazy, stale and just the gameplay is not inspiring or funny in the least. You need to stop producing shit or otherwise nobody will watch your garbage.

>>155121684
>The shorter DCP cooldown skill is HA down at 3 points.
You're right, my mistake. But the point still stands. Fire damage fucks over cruisers a lot more than it does battleships. If you have to DCP something else and you get lit on fire, BoS can and will save your ass since, again, cruisers at lower tiers don't have the damage repairs battleships do.

>Air-dropped still hurt, and even killing one extra TB makes a world of difference.
Except the bonus from BFT is rarely enough to kill one extra TB until you get to the higher tiers thanks to the RNG nature of the AA bubble, and defensive fire is much more effective at keeping bombers off of you and your team anyway.
BFT is only useful when there's a carrier in the match and when that carrier goes after you or a ship near you. BoS can be useful any time there's a ship that can light you on fire, which is every single fucking match.

If the enemy Scharnhorst has to choose to stick to one ammo choice all game, what should it logically be?

>>155121659

It would also be fantastic if you have a certain amount of hp in each section that can be burnt.
Or having a lower fire chance on an sectopm that was just repaired.

And fires almost never run their full duration on my cruisers because I already have premium DCP +/- HA, even without BoS. I never reach the fire duration for which BoS is useful. And if I'm getting permafired, I'm probably going to die to HE spam before any fire gets me.

As for killing TBs, low/mid-tier CV planes can be surprisingly fragile. BFT + DF will cause you to shoot down more planes and last longer if a CV sends planes at you.

tl;dr: Both are situationally useful, but there are more situations in which BFT is useful.

>>155123854
>>155123868
>>155123869

Correct! Scharnhorst has cruiser guns, so you should do your best to hang back and pretend you can invisifire. Optimal positioning would be 8km behind the closest friendly ship. While broadside in open ocean. And reversing.

but where's the part where he becomes visibly confused by what the landwhale is saying?

What are the best books about naval history?
Ordering some books to fuck with certain people, might as well order one or two for myself.

10.6km, bismarck can chase you down with those too so keep your distance.

Why is the Amagi so rarely found in team battles when it was so commonly found in Tier 8 ranked battles?

>>155134440
no one played amagi in team battles? fuck off

>>155134440

?

Did they bump TBs up to T8 at some point in time?

My mistake, I was talking about the NA v. EU team battle tournament yesterday, where the Amagi was rarely used compared to Bismarck and North Carolina.

>>155135268
Well lets see

>It's OP

>NC
>Can bow-forward meme with 6 guns forward

IMO the Gneisenau is a better ship than the Bisko. Gneisenau's armor works better against the ships it faces and is easier to angle. It's also more maneuverable and has torpedoes for those close range brawls.

>>155135268
Because Ranked battles was still essentially pub battles. There is no voice comms and minimal communication. The composition of your team changes every game, and you can't depend on them to come save your ass or do utilitarian things. Amagi is a fast, adaptable ship that can handle a variety of jobs.

With competitive play, you got people on voice comms who have practiced with each other for weeks and know how to cycle smoke and support each other. Each ship also has more of a specialized role. And as it stands, "invisible battleships bow-on in smoke" is the competitive meta. Bismarck's got meme FUCK OFF secondaries, and NC's got a 6-gun forward battery. Amagi has runs mostly at her rear and speed, which doesn't matter when you're sitting in your own personal fog bubble.

Maybe you'll see more Amagis when they change the smoke mechanics to not let BBs invisifire from smoke anymore.

sounds comfy desu

>>155135881
Having one extra turret isn't worth much when you have to angle out to unmask it, and the Bisko takes massive AP damage against 16 inch guns even when angled. On the other hand, Gneisenau can keep bow on without losing much firepower and it is very bouncy against the 14 and 15 inch gun armed ships it goes up against.

>>155136414
Well at least it was balanced.

Report the cvs and tell them to stop queueing for more than 3mins

>>155136962
Bisko also sits higher in the water too.

Care to debunk it?

Should I level US or Jap CVs family

>>155136962
have you even played the ship? Gneisenau can't bounce shells at all even bow on against lower tier BBs.

USN CVs are literally irrelevant except for Senpai

>>155138228
I prefer the furability of US planes to the fragility of the IJN planes. Your strike package is at an obvious disadvantage against basically 3 out of 4 enemy carriers, but I've found that most of the time they can't stop you from doing decent damage.

At least, on the Lexi this is true. I've easily racked up 100k dmg against even AS Lexis. They were probably shitters though. Luckily theyre a diamond dozen

So. Baltimore. What am I in for?

wat

Did you mean a dime a dozen?
