a WoWs thread without SO shills ? cant believe it
Also does anyone know when they'll release the Tone ?
>>125723019
Probably before new year?
>>125722769
What's the purpose of that paint job? :\
>>125723701
probably to fool scout planes while she was stationed near land
>>125722769
so, which Kongo class looks the best ? The arpeggio event will be this year ?

google tanz ship yard and get the hiei skin from there
>what are CVnts doing for food these days
>>125724245
no thanks, I have my cute skins from pravda team
>>125725010
>cute skins from pravda team
but all their skins look like garish neon nightmares
USN camo was various shades of blue, white, and grey because it was designed for use at sea as the fleet was pushing asses in.
IJN camo was various shades of green because they got their ass so thoroughly kicked in that all their ships spent a good amount of time sitting in harbor and next to shore, trying to hide from superior American airpower.
>>125725119
still better than grey steel and rust
also, there seens to be a PVE mode in the works, did WG learn from the AW fiasco that theres a market of PVE only players ?
http://thearmoredpatrol.com/2015/12/17/wows-xvm-nope-stats-will-be-hidden-after-all/
>>125725267
as much of a videogame as farmville
>>125725374
grey steel is infinitely better than eye cancer
and there are a number of no so horrific skins out there, the pravda ones are just the most awful looking ones around
>>125725527
I enjoy them as a filthy weeb and there were not that many skins to choose from, specifically non-historical skins
>>125725785
as a fellow disgusting weeb I wish there was actually some decent botegrill skins for the game
maybe one day someone will make some that aren't shit
>>125726357
Steel Ocean General
Are CVs going to be good again next patch? I'm really not liking this bow in, sail in reverse or peek-a-boo meta shit.
It's not even hard to deal with, it's just really boring and sucks all of the enjoyment out of playing. If I wanted to see ships sitting still, I'd just sit in the dock and look at all the ship previews.
155 or the 203 on the mogami ?
also, should I sell my myoko for it ? her turret turn times are killing me
>tfw you get 3 devastating strikes in one game
>>125726790
you wont deal much dmg with 155 because armor got changed
get 203, sell myoko, use flags to get ibuki and then get demolition expert + concealment
>>125726752
>I'm really not liking this bow in, sail in reverse or peek-a-boo meta shit.
So what youre saying is...carriers prevent camping?Ive been saying this all along but you all thought i was just joking
>>125726790
155mm for DD hunting 203mm for everything else
yes
>>125726790
8" are shit. 15.5cm or bust.
They look better too.
>>125726972
>mfw a tirpitz and a colorado tried it
>in ranked
>with 3 DD's per side
>>125726972
>>125727192
I meant the sail in reverse thing
>>125726752
It happened even before CV's went away. All you needed was either a couple of cruisers circling around you or the CV to be focused on the other side of the map. Which happened pretty often. CV's helped mask the issue, but it has always been there.
Decrease repair costs for T8 through 10 and make citadels from the front easier, so that angling remains a viable tactic for reducing one's profile and keeping it hard to hit. And nerf fucking Yamato while at it, her shells should be as effective as Montana's.
I craved for fried chicken every time I saw New Orleans
>>125726790
155s and use AP more than HE. HE is fucked against battleships right now, so you now do damage against them by spraying their superstructure with AP.
>>125727561
>nerf frontal bulkeads
I'll take "fuck off" for 500, that literally kills half of the USN BB line because of the the fucking artificial turret angle nerfs WG tacked onto them.
>>125728009
> HE is fucked against battleships
really ? I use HE on myoko and I'm getting 1-2k hits on colorados and nagatos
how close do I need to be to pen with AP 155mm ?
>>125727561
Nah, that wasn't a problem before. Sure people might have sometimes gotten away with it, but camping behind islands or sitting still was a good way to get sunk.
>>125728287
He's full of shit.or hes Mako
Use HE and start lodes e fire
>>125727897
Still no USS Kentucky
>>125728287
you can regularly get 6-7-even 8k salvos with AP on the superstructures ofUSN BB'snow because of the ayy-or-memes armor scheme
>>125727561
I want to add that BBs don't need cruiser escort anymore. So the cruisers can just go hunt DD, making it even easier to just sit in one place.
>>125728463
>USS Kentucky added
>Every time it gets lit on fire people will joke about fried chicken
plsno
>>125728287
I do 5-7k salvos against Tirpitzes and Colorados when shooting into their superstructure. I've found plunging AP into superstructures don't do much, but if it has a flatter trajectory (i.e. about < 10km), it eats up superstructures like nothing.
>>125728389
I am not full of shit. I laughed so hard when I helped burn down a Tirpitz stupidly fast simply because 7k every few seconds is ridiculous.
>>125727328

155mm
>>125728663
>>125728860
nice, crippling nerfs when ?
>>125729039
You know that the HE vs AP meta is like a grandfather clock. When armor was bugged, we lived in the age of the tick of AP. Once it got fixed, we then lived in the age of the tock of HE. Now we are going back to the tick of AP. Tock soon.
>>125729324
wont an AP nerf cripple the most of the german cruiser line ?
>>125729662
)))
>>125729662
>slavs
>giving a shit about krauts
Pick one
Is HE fire chance even somewhat dependent on where the shell impacts? Disregarding already set fires on sections of the ship.
Say if I shoot a Yamato and hit somewhere around her anchors, where there is literally no flammable material in addition to being wet from being swept by water, can I light her on fire?
>>125729961
but I like my konigsberg
>>125730031
you can hit the dead center of a Yamatos belt with a Clemsons 4-incher HE round and have the same chance of starting a fire as if it had hit the floatplane launch or AA battery.
>>125730181
Quality game design right there.
>>125730078
Sorry, anon, the commies are in-charge of "balance".
>>125730181
Expected as much.
I wish they would rework fire chance.
As a primarily cruiser player myself, I fucking hate it, it isn't fun to light people on fire and it's frustrating to get lit on fire, especially on opening salvos.
DEAD GAMe
>>125728860
Damn... I Remember that Mogami was a mean ship on tier 8, very strong depending on the armament (sometimes playstyle).
9:1 Ratio Heeeeeh!
>>125730840
ALSO MONTANA IS A PIECE OF SHIT
)))))))))) GOOD JOB WARGAMING MUH RUSSIAN BIAS AMERICA 2 WEAK
"comrade is of make american ship bad, need strong russia power" - putin
>>125730984
Montana is excellent though
>>125731215
Yamato may as well be a tier 20 compared to it
>>125731467
Theyre both good.
Yamato is just poorly balanced. But saying >>125730984 is proof of mental illness.

Yamato is, in fact, overpowered and unbalanced.

How annoyed are you as a BB if there's a Cruiser that fire one salvo and then fade away by the time you trained your guns on them?
>>125737253
I like the DD's that flicker in and out of existence at 3km when they aren't even behind the smokescreen, but in front of it
>>125737253
it's worse in Montana

montana can't inflict damage to enemy battleships, especially if they angle which everyone does at tier 8/9/10.
even if they expose their broadsides, there is a big chance you won't deal much dmg at all
>>125740764
dont forget you have to be able to hit in the first place to do damage as well
>>125741012
tell me more about aiming
you sound like those autists on reddit who convinced themselves montana is a good and suitable counter to yamato
>>125741226
you fucking idiot, I was referring to the terribad dispersion

Yes, you're autistic after all.
>>125742193
see >>125742304
I could elaborate a bit more if you'd like because I know autistic people struggle with basic information.
So you have 5 other generals for Kantai, but you feel like you have to spam them here while not ADDING ANYTHING TO THE DISCUSSION.
hopefully your autism level isn't high so you can actually comprehend this
This is how you run Montanawhen youre too poor to get the last upgrade
She does plenty of fucking damage on a broadside and can fuck up anyone dumb enough to show theirs just as well as yamato.

are you the same anon who claimed to deal 96k average damage per battle with nagato?
considering you deal 11k more than me, i don't see why you should struggle with colorado or perform mediocre with her :^)
>inb4 i was just shitposting
>>125744051
Angle. Use terrain to your advantage to get below the 10 km range. At that range you can murder cruisers with ease, and enemy battleships lose their advantage on your deck armor. Don't go after far off objectives because you'll never make it. Pick the shortest non-suicide route to the shortest objective. T8s can and will murder you, anything at your tier or below is food.
I mean, I don't know how to be more specific or where to focus. Overall it's all about brawling (and more importantly, how to get into brawl range without dying in the process).
>>125744417
>are you the same anon who claimed to deal 96k average damage per battle with nagato?
no?
I have like 5 games total in my Nagato so far, and I got fucked on in most of them because I'm stock and holy shit FUCK 1.7rpm at tier 7.
>>125744669
ok :^)
well you do ok with colorado, just sail in between islands and target enemy battleships because your turrets will damage them regardless if they're angled or not
you have low hp so you'll die if you're detected in open waters
>>125744789
should I use the AA range or primary range mod
Goodnight, /wowsg/
>>125744862
range mod but ditch it once you get NC, Iowa and Montana
i'll upload a few colorado replays if you want but you've played colorado a lot so i'm curious why you want to continue playing her

here's a replay of me playing colorado.
this is pretty much how i played new york, new mexico, north carolina and iowa.
sometimes i rush into the enemy with montana to hunt cruisers but this is not a good idea because of the repair costs so i can't do this as much as i'd love to
what you really want to do is sail into the enemy and take cover immediately, otherwise they'll burn you down with HE :^)
pic related, what enemy is probably saying to each other when they see me 10 km closer to them

Mods, this is the same user who's been image dumping in /wowsg/ for almost one year and he does the exact same thing in other boards with the same pictures as well.
You've range banned him before, do it again.
I personally believe he's doing this so he can hit the image limit in order to convince others to join his new thread.
I know he's severely autistic and he might consider suicide if you range ban him again, but it'll be a good thing, trust me.
i wonder if we all begin to complain (i already sent a feedback) about the moderator, will they finally bust him?
i mean, when most of the people in the thread want to post kancolle anime representations of botes which we play in wows, it's weird to go on an autistic rage against it, moderators are not here for shaping the discussions how they like, are they
p.s. mutsuki a cat! A CAT!
>>125752373
they've range banned him a couple of times but do tell me where i could send feedback
this autistic mongoloid spam in /a/ and /v/ as well, i wouldn't be surprised if he's 30 years old living with his mother
posting kancolle is fine as long as you bring something to discuss, those retards simply image dumped kancolle pictures for virtually no reason whatsoever
>>125752558
i mean that they should bust the moderator who butchered the previous wows thread and 4 attempts to made a new one and on top of that banned/deleted a few posts merely for posting innocent things like the discussion about mutsuki and tama
obviously that the spammer should be banned but i don't speak about her
Carried the shit out of this game while bad players hung out in the corners or TKed. Didn't even have the commander retrained yet, or any of the upgrades for the ship. Speaking of which, hull or range first?

You do literally no damage.
>>125753938
Literally just shoot shit dude. If things get hairy deploy smoke then sit there for a minute, shooting shit. Or you can try ambushing faggots around islands. Also bully DDs above all else.
>>125753938
Guns and ambushes. It's actually where the Russian DDs start to get gud. Gnevny is a big step up, and Kiev is amazing.
>>125754067
>>125754084
I shoot shit and it doesn't die ever. Any time I actually get fires they are immediately put out and I never see another for 2 minutes
other destroyers are nice but there's typically only 2 and rarely 3 in a battle

yeah they were pretty industrialized by that point but that weren't even in the same league as the burgers
nobody was by the end of the war
>>125761431
>normie IJN pilots
So THAT'S the real reason why everyone abandoned playing the CV's
>>125761324
Rolled-up rice straw tatami mats meant to catch splinters.
Like everything the IJN did, it didn't work and increased the fire hazard.

Just kill me, should I just train them up in coop?
still no blyawicia on NA
still no tone for anyone even though the ship has been done for months
Why does WG do this shit don't they want to make money?
>>125762106
Only soviet were in the same industrial leauge
>>125761220
Nope. Even if Japs won midway all it'd do is prolong its defeat ultimately decided battle. We'd get more tales about Japs being badass, though.
i feel sorry for s.o. honestly, they were drawn away in a very rude way imo
>>125762981
hm? no they werent
damn how im mad at communists and fucking stalin... at the very end he could accept the marchall plan
>>125763085
>i feel sorry for s.o. honestly, they were drawn away in a very rude way imo
they kept insisting a lot of users talked and discussed about their game
>>125761324
If I recall correctly, they were rolled up hammocks/bedsheets(or something similar) used as padding to provide extra defense from various things. Some of the IJN CV's were like this around the Pearl Harbor attack and other early operations.
Forgive and correct me if I'm wrong, it's been awhile.
>>125762981
they were as close as anyone was getting but even they weren't quite there
the americans were in a class of their own when it came to sheer industrial output by the end of the war, it was pretty crazy really and it does make it kind of understandable that even the japs who knew they were outmatched industrially didn't realize by how much it was going to be

sawer is probably the funniest user ever
>>125764529
only tier 4? how generous. I guess they want the draw in the new players with it. Are they only releasing BBs, or do we get tsundere heavy cruiser?
>>125764640
no Takao, only Myoko
;_;
>>125764632
>muh aimbots
But the only real advantages to the aim assist is the ability to get the first shot on people coming around islands and having a speed readout on the enemy
Other than that its a wobbly circle on the screen that will miss everyone that makes evasive manouevers.
New York, range mod or reload mod?
>>125765851
does new york actually have the reload upgrade
i thought only iowa and montana got it
>>125765587
do we get to see the mental models, or is it just voice lines for each ship? either way, can't wait to hear haruna.
>>125765851
>slower reload for faster traverse
Nah m8, either range or AA
Can I pen BBs with my Aoba?
>>125766232
yes
>>125766232
AIm for bow or stern, but it's better off using HE shell for better overall DPS, since BBs' deck are doused in gasoline.
>>125766179
>see the mental models
how would that even work ? Do you really think that WG would do some extra work for a single event ?
>>125766232
yes, especially the IJN's, they have shit armor up to tier 6, but you have to get close enough to get a flat shot trajectory
last night I was full on brawling a Kongo with my Murmansk and penning it for 1-2k, so Aoba will have no problems

>it's a 2x commander xp

ALL HAIL WG
Most of my ships are tier III or IV now, and the XP needed for progression is gettting pretty steep.. Any recommendations on which tech trees to grind first? I like Jap dds for torp range, and I like fast-firing gun boats. What tree provides fast guns?
>>125766919
Jap DDs start sucking at Tier 6, because 10km range doesn't make up for orgasmic 3x2 launchers and 30 seconds of reload time. Dunno if 5.2 will make it more probable.
Fast firing gunboats are ok right now, US fast firing ends at Omaha, so play US DDs or better, Ruski DDs.
Beside the Unsung War that one anon spammed, anyone mind sharing epic tunes for me to play my boats along with?
>>125766919
>Jap dds for torp range
well there's a buff coming for torp stealth AND a nerf to BB turning speed, so it should get pretty fun
>What tree provides fast guns?
well, there are the "gunboat" USN and Vodka destroyers but their torps are mostly shit, that's the WG balance for you
try getting the omaha or the cleveland, the're pretty fun
go german if you want to lob AP and nothing else, but beware its tier 4, its a steaming pile
>>125766919
USN DDs from the Mahan onwards get 9km (which is enough) torps and have fast firing guns. Go for that line instead.
>>125766318
instead of captains probably
>>125767198
actually the main problem of mutsuki it's the speed of torpedoes together with their concealment, not 3x2 or her reload time (way longer than 30 sec btw)
my last game as her, nothing special but a very safe and nice bote, i was never even damaged at all
>>125767198
>>125767365
>>125767443
Thanks lads! I think I'm going to focus on the American DDs for now.. From what you're saying they seem to have a nice mix of guns and torp-range at higher tiers, no?
>go german if you want to lob AP and nothing else, but beware its tier 4, its a steaming pile
Is the Karlsruhe it's tier IV? I think so.. That's the one I'm at now, and it does indeed suck.
>>125764319
I can't tell you what went on the IJN'S collective minds, but since I'm mildly autistic and a turbonerd, I went and read a shitton of reports the USN produced.
It all comes down to 'these people were completely retarded, never once listened to their science guys, relied on tech from 1925 and had fucking balls of steel to go up against us in those floating deathtraps'
There was practically nothing the USN thought it might copy or adapt from the IJN.
If you compare these reports to those about German procedures, equipment, training, etc., the report recommends immediately adapting certain procedures into training manuals, or advises whoever reads the report to get some piece of equipment reverse engineered ASAP, and so on and so forth.
The difference in the tech level and training methods etc. is startling.
>>125766847
>It's for NA
ALL HAIL WG NA
there was just the very same event i think the previous weekend
yeah, it's pretty nice
>>125768150
>That's the one I'm at now
I'm really sorry to hear that, it's a pretty terrible way to start playing WoWs. There should be a warning or something.
Also I think they're going to buff its reload time next patch
Nice final game for this bote.
>>125768849

admiral, you leave me... i did my best;_;

Good morning /wowsg/!
It's friday at last! For the ones who have to work today, just hang in there, we're almost through.
For the rest, have a nice shipping day.
May your shells fly straight and your aim be true.
Has the autistic Plebbitor fucked off yet? Has the retarded newfag mod fucked off yet?

Is the game played played in outer space ?
>>125774339
Basically turn your gun into a mortar at 15km+
Anyone else getting disconnected to the login screen and welcomed upon reconnecting with a "Error connecting Server" ?
only restarting the whole game fixes this shit
Who wants to learn about more Soviet Ships?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKYWtRezDRo
>>125775015
huh?
>>125773901
That anon here, I've come to love Mutsuki's 10km and Cleveland is good when you stay far away (although she can't pen, it still deals well enough damage), also pressing defensive fire and seeing enemy planes drop like flies is an amazing experience.
New York is a piece of shit, though. It simply can't hit anything reliably although I lead correctly. I heard something about US BBs being a brawler but I had trouble citting Furry Taco merrily straightlining under 8km away.

at least wows got an ingame collab event with arpeggio

there are official stuff from WG IIRC

just official 'garage,sound,skin' mod
they just make it permanent here on wows
>>125760881
Why does Akagi's flightdeck slant downwards after the middle? Won't planes just roll off into the sea?
>>125781583
I guess they made so the platform would straighten the plane angle of attack when they start to gain velocity and lift
>>125781972
And Kaga seems to slant the other way down the whole flightdeck... It looks like their backs are broken.
>>125781583
More speed for lift off?
Possibility to choose which ship of the class you're playing when?
