I'm not dead yet. Just been rather busy.

So do I want AFT or DE for my Belfast captain? I guess roasting BBs would be nice since I prefer to just outright kill DDs and CAs but for the rare times I do see CVs not having DF is a bit annoying.

>>164721180

DE. AFT only boosts meme AA and you have no Def fire.

>>164721180
DE for sure if it's a dedicated Belfast captain. The per-shell fire chance is quite low. If you want to buff your AA, I'd recommend AA Guns Mod2 + MAA. This has the additional benefit of carrying over to the tech tree ships.

>>164721353
>AFT only boosts meme AA
Shitpost, downvoted

>>164721156
alright, you check out, just don't leave us without hotels

>>164721180
The faster you can light a fire and switch to AP the better. If it's a dedicated Belfast captain, it's DE no question. Any BB dumb enough to give you a broadside should be taking 5k+ damage salvos of AP from you every 7 seconds. And they're typically really dumb.

>>164727529
Citpen shots are RNG-fests.

>>164727529

Definitely to get overpen. Overpens still do damage and with enough hits you can still kill whatever you're aiming at.

Failing to pen is no damage whatsoever and means you need to adjust your aim because no amount of bounces are going to do any damage.

>>164727412
You know WTR isn't a difficult concept to understand. A good player doing well on a ship or lines of ships that a majority does poorly in should skyrocket in WTR.

Your beloved little "Umidoori" who sits at 200 random battles and over 2000 forum posts is garbage, please kill yourself for shilling your name here over something you're not and will never be.

So I just realized something. You could stage a fight between teammates in chat, ending with one of them calling out the other's "location" which is actually in the middle of nowhere, and the enemy would probably check it out.
What's the first offense penalty for calling out a location?

>>164730262
people did that in WoT before they took out all-chat.
sometimes it'd be a legit location, sometimes it'd be the enemy team trying to draw you into a trap.

>>164730336
>they took out all-chat.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

>>164730440
apparently, not sure when but I started playing again recently and it's gone

>>164730440
I heard about that too. You can't chat with the enemy anymore so I heard.

>>164730528
There was word of it coming to Warships at some point as well.

>>164730043
>I know that's still shitter tier
?

>>164730896
Not shitter tier in those botes would be like 70-90 avg

>>164730528
Might be a good thing. Allchat usually just devolves into mayhem. The idea came to me after I got so irritated with a friendly DD who couldn't help himself from mocking me after a Kagero got a cheap deletion I just punched in his coordinates. Of course he goes "OOOOHHH REPORTED SCREENSHOTTED BANNABLE"
I've got 39 karma though, so it's not really a concern.

I love you /wowsg/!
Remember to appreciate the good things in botes, the stuff that you enjoy most in the game. And in life.

>>164731172
What if I'm already ded? Like my botefu?

>>164730896
I'm assuming that "better than average" is HP of ship + 20~30%

>>164725239
Is number of games played total taken into account in this? Or is it literally just solo WR irrelevant of everything else?

tier 8 Chinese premium aircraft carrier:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMAS_Melbourne_(R21)

>Melbourne was paid off from RAN service in 1982. A proposal to convert her for use as a floating casino failed, and a 1984 sale was cancelled, before she was sold for scrap in 1985 and towed to China for breaking. The scrapping was delayed so Melbourne could be studied by the People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) as part of a secret project to develop a Chinese aircraft carrier and used to train PLAN aviators in carrier flight operations.

>>164740534
>Melbourne was the largest warship any of the Chinese experts had seen, and they were surprised by the amount of equipment which was still in place. The PLAN subsequently arranged for the ship's flight deck and all the equipment associated with flying operations to be removed so that they could be studied in depth.[164] Reports have circulated that either a replica of the flight deck, or the deck itself, was used for clandestine training of People's Liberation Army Navy pilots in carrier flight operations.[3] It has also been claimed that the Royal Australian Navy received and "politely rejected" a request from the PLAN for blueprints of the ship's steam catapult.[164] The carrier was not dismantled for many years; according to some rumours she was not completely broken up until 2002.

Australians are so retarded, they gave an aircraft carrier to China with much of the equipment still intact.

Tier 9 would have to be "Super-Akizuki", which is basically the same as Akizuki except with a sextuple torpedo launcher and actual speed.

It's really too bad the JMSDF never bought any Forrest Sherman class DDs because those would be absolutely perfect for a T10 gunboat.

Half the time you want to move, your engine just dies and have to wait until it is repaired.
Whenever you move your tank, there is a chance that a crewman dies from carbon monoxide poisoning.
While your engine is running, you cannot aim your guns (well, machine guns, mostly) becasue the gunner can't hear your orders.
You have one fascis to cross one trench, after you used that you have to hope your temmates use theirs to help the team get forward.
When you detect a tank, a messenger dove flies out to the next teammate. When it arives the teammate sees the enemy, too.

Some (random) areas on each map are mud that gets you stuck, some other parts are minefields.

Plot twist: Winning a battle is actually impossible, if one team is close to losing the whole map is covered by artillery barrages which may or may not contain gas shells that kill your crew, all battles result in a draw, your crew never gains experience.

There are people who would play this.

>>164746775
I'm basing this on the Flamu vid of the Friedrich and he showed that you can break 1k dps on the AA and it shredded tier 9 planes. Haven't gotten the second hull which really ramps up mid range AA but even with just the mods and manual AA skill it's already pretty impressive.

which crate type gives the most port slots? I'm hurting bad

>>164746882
Your captain's skill should augment the modules on your bote.

It's a 4 point skill difference between AA-spec (MAA) and Secondary-spec (MSF). It's really up to you.

>>164746882

Isn't the Texas just a New York? So an AA build is actually good on it to fuck with low tier CVs? Cause I've been playing the Wyoming a bit to play with a friend who wants to go clapper CVs.

wot? You just trade Manual AA for Manual Secondary. A typical build will look like this. You can drop CE and Preventive Maintenance and go Firefighters/Basic Survivability + High Alert but CE is too damn good to drop in T9/T10 games.

>>164747596
God no

They should make a brawly CA line. Outfitted with enough secondaries to reliably shred DDs and armor to bounce shells at distance, but no range. Did anything like that exist?

>>164748091
Because it restricted everybody else's navies too. Britain and the US really wanted the Washington Naval Treaty badly, because they already had the biggest navies by a huge margin. The Treaty allowed them to maintain their advantage without spending too much money. Which incidentally is why they were the only nations to not outright cheat on the treaty weight limits.

Japan signed the treaty because while they WANTED a navy bigger than just 3/5 the size of the US and Britain, they didn't actually have the money to build one. The "8-8 Fleet" that Japan was trying to build before the treaty? It would've cost something like 150% of the Japanese GDP.

France and Italy were only really concerned with competing with each other, and the Treaty made special concessions like allowing them to resume battleship construction years earlier than the 3 "major powers" to get them to join in.

With regard to secondaries, not that I know of. Well Cleveland, Baltimore and Des Moines would shred the hell out of DDs with their secondaries if 5"/38s weren't nerfed to half their historical ROF.

For armor though, a few of the Italian cruisers will have really good armor. But other ones will have really bad armor. That's going to be a really odd line to progress through, since it goes back and forth in regard to armor rather than just weak at low tiers and strong at high tiers.

Personally I can't wait for French DDs.

Le Fantasque: 5x1 139mm guns, 45 knots. So with Engine Boost and a Sierra Mike flag, 51 knots.

Tell me you're kidding. Also, does that mod even affect proxy spotting?

That's what assured acquisition range is, proxy spotting. It just fucked him anyway since he launched his torps when he could see me(further away than normal), which just gave me more time to dodge them

12 rounds per minute, 40kg projectile, 800 meters per second.

And Mogador has the same guns, but 8 of them. Get fucked, Khabarovsk.

Oh and here's what Khabarovsk got copied from. Is it a destroyer or a cruiser? The Italians made the thing and they couldn't decide either.

I thought acquisition only increases draw distance!

>>164748461
Britain was just as short on cash as Japan after WW1, and primarily saw the treaty as a way to maintain the status quo while at the same time limiting future expenses.

The US could've gone on building, but was just as happy to essentially freeze the fleet construcion.
The USN knew that whenever the treaty had run its course, they could just go on outbuilding everyone.

Japan got fucked over in the negotiations becasue the US had broken their diplomatic code.
Had Japan been granted a 4/5 or even larger tonnage limit, they would've kept building at a slower, more sustainable pace.
Note that 'sustainable' apparently meant 'we spent all our money on warships'.

All in all, it was more a treaty of convenience than one made from a heartfelt need to stop or limit an arms race.

>>164750017
While you were on your little 8 month vacation, one of the patches changed how Target Acquisition Mod worked. It used to only increase draw distance, but now it increases proxy spotting too.

>>164749313
Shame the Mogador's twin turrets were a fucking mess and it delivered less than half the advertised RoF. Plus they both had hilariously short ranges, not that either of those things will be modeled in WoWS, so they'll probably be pretty fun botes.

>>164750017
No its assured acquisition range, spotting range, and torpedoes

>>164747026

Texas is a New York, but she's got her 1944 AA load out, so she's packed to the gills with bofors and guns. I annihilate enemy airplanes, and that's without the captain skills.

>>164750202
Doesn't it also increase torpedo acquisition?

>>164749526
And this is why RM is not yet in the game.

Subhuman trash.

>>164749052
The most one ever made with wartime munitions/fuel load was 39 knots. Which is still fast, but it's hardly groundbreaking.

>>164747258
>Are there really still enough CV players to make an AA built worth it?
CV's get a few nerfs in 6.0. Those who actually read patch notes will be less inclined to unlock new cv's

>>164745291
>I heard it will have underwater torp tubes
Even that is too hard to code for conscripted Russian devs.

I just started playing this game and oh my god everyone is unwilling to talk in-game. Are people this quiet in chat in higher tiers too?

>>164752378
Are you on SEA server? Because it's probably a language thing.

People on NA should be quite talkative.

You really think someone would do that?

Just sign a treaty then try to get around it?
