One of the three Northampton Sisters, and apparently the one who gets into trouble a lot
i don't get the op pic
why gearing is launching a plane with a bow, she is not a dirty cvnt

She was a tough little ship ;_;7

Thats Enterprise bro

Second american Carrier ever made, is 4 tiers higher then the Carrier it replaced.
>No worries sir. I promise the next one'll come home in one piece
Second of the Northampton Sisters - running gag that no one knows how to pronounce her name correctly
EU server is back up, eurofriends

>>121398097
Thats too bad, I quite like it. But thats because I'm a diehard burger - this game converted me from being a hopeless IJN fanboy

First of the two Omaha's.
>>121398479
I enjoy being an underdog. Makes wins and gains that much more enjoyable.
Only Colorado, and a real shame there are no New Mexico's
>You want me to retreat? How about no.
Last of the Northampton sisters. Chester and North look like boys to me.
shipgirl designs crack me up because when you think about warships you normally think of stuff like huge guns and thick armour and hundreds of people onboard working to keep all the systems in check then you see these tiny little moe girls with ship bits stuck to their arms and legs
>Commander...Sorry I won't be able to give you...that dance I promised...
>Her first duty was to assist in the USAAS's first aerial circumnavigation of the world.
>Raleigh was moored at berth F-12, on the east side of the north channel at Pearl Harbor, when the Japanese made their surprise attack. In the first attack wave a torpedo passed ahead and a second hit Raleigh portside amidships. The cruiser took such a list to port that it appeared she might capsize. As crew jettisoned topside weight to keep her upright, her gunners helped to destroy five Japanese planes. Several of her crew were wounded, but none were killed.
Served during the war a decommissioned in september of 45

I want her to eat me
>I'm okay, commander! I'm okay! They just got my magazines. I'm okay...so please...don't worry!
>Shaw sustained major damage from multiple bomb hits by Japanese forces during the Attack on Pearl Harbor. The spectacular explosion of her forward magazine provided one of the most iconic photographs of the attack. She was repaired within a few months of the attack, and served in the Pacific through the rest of World War II, earning eleven battle stars.
>>121399919
out?
>>121399979
meantime we lose our dd to detonations in game while rl dd survived them -_-
Heres that iconic picture that was mentioned.
She was detonated, and repaired, returned to service at the end of august of 42.
I really do think DD's should get health pots.
Anyway, I've got more of these, but I'm gonna stop - the rest are for ships that don't exist in the game, classes that we might see in the future though.
>>121400347
No, I just want her to eat me.

Anyone know if and when we'll be getting challenges and missions?
I know that feel.

>>121400895
>The REAL 0.5.1.0 patchnotes
Didn't have the link at the time, sorry senpai
...And Yorktown.
So, with WG planning on making a 2nd IJN CV line, would the USN get one too? They made a lot of CV's, but most of them were the same class.
Also, Enterprise premium when?
>>121399046
this
this is my fetish
>>121400829
Same here,but I get more from her sister to be honest, family
>>121400895
What's the difference between the region versions?
>>121404967
literally just the filename, each region now requires a shiptree file with specific name, like shipstree_NA.xml, shipstree_EU.xml, etc.
What is this shit?
>>121405886
there is a new polish tier 7 turd destroyer
>>121400895
What I am getting from this is that they have substantially changed how the game itself handles speed/engine power, or at least massively consolidated it.
Also a slight buff to IJN cruiser speed.
They also changed a lot of the flooding params to be much higher which we of course knew.
I'm gonna notepad++ this shit to get a clearer picture without all these fucking "removed"s
>>121405960
>Jewel of the Polish navy
That's fucking hilarious.
God the updated IJN CV spread is FUN! Seriously missed it from CBT! (Little different of course, but similar.)
Also, despite being against a Bogue and Langley, I didn't feel the same plane rape as prior to the patch.
By which I mean I actually tied a fighter langley for plane kills! (11, bogue had 22)
That changed fighter T3 perk was a horrific nerf/balance to USN planes it would seem?
No more 100% placebo IJN Fighters.:^)
>>121406783

So how much did they fuck up Carriers with this update?

Why does she need Glasses?
Why does she appear Japanese while her sister appears like a White girl?
Why does she wear her hair in such a strange fashion?
Why does she wear such a strange bra thing?

why do so many japs wear glasses

if anything, she appears brazilian

To be as sexually appealing as possible to a certain demographic.
For all questions.

She's tanned, because she fought more under the sun
Because she has no taste

Pruned Changelog of all the information irrelevant to a non-developer, such as "removed file" or "added file". These are worthless without access to the values behind them if they even changed at all.

>>121411808
No chance. DDs in WOWS do the same thing but they're far faster and more fun.
>>121408772
>She's tanned, because she fought more under the sun
Not quite
subs barely have a place in a combat like in wows, they are way too slow for it
I had a dream there were subs in WoWs.You could only queue against other subs and the game mode involved sinking enemy AI-controlled merchant ships.
What happen to captain skills rework? Are you telling me I put my points into useless stuff for no reason?
>>121413330
A dev on reddit said the changes weren't rolling out this patch and that it shouldn't have showed up in the patch notes.
>>121413330
certain captain skills and by default the upgrades for a ship do so little that they're literally worthless, you really gotta pick and choose which ones to invest in because you could get a perk or an upgrade that doesn't help you at all
>best match I've ever had
>it's a loss

How is your mod still working? Or did you just manually replace the ribbon images? I really liked that guys mod. Sucks he stopped doing it.

Well after playing nothing but IJB BBs all the way to tier 10, I'm trying to decide which line to try out next.
Are the Kruat cruisers fun once you get to around T5 - 8?
>first match in the Karl post patch
>actually did well
>survived the match
>took a few hits and my engine stayed intact
>set a myogi on fire 4 times
Seems its gotten a bit better
>>121416771
If it's meme ships you're after, get the Kiev.
>>121416771
The Konig is the best ship in the game, no joke.
>>121417240
that's the other line I was looking at, are the other mid tier slav DDs any good or is it just the Kiev?
>>121417418
The Gnevy is pretty good, the ognevoi is just an uptiered gnevy, but its not all bad as it has much faster turrets.
>>121417418
Gnevy and Ognevoi teach you how to start relying on your guns and are a little harder because their damage output is a little low - more fires than HE is not uncommon. Get superintendent because you absolutely need to be able to sit in smoke and spam everything.
Derzki and Storozhevoi will be amazing if you have any skill in watching the minimap for suicide rush options.
Izy is in-between.
After going through the whole German tree to elite Roon, the grind through the Soviet DDs has been just terribly fun. I recommend them, and Kiev is certainly the cherry.

That's what I figured it was since gook was also censored, but that doesn't explain why poop, sex, and fag are as well.
Perhaps the person in charge of censoring words is like... 12?

Bug alert.
If you get a fighter vs fighter engagement as soon as the fighters clash rapidly tell yours to go home and at the same time tell them to attack the fighters. If you do it right the game deletes exactly 3 enemy fighters. People are already abusing this and I bet it's a long time before it gets fixed. Go destroy the Anti air scourge.
Enjoy!
>>121425728
>These are your team mates.
stat stalkers? :^)
>>121425874
This just happened to me in my bogue, I actually came here to see if people were reporting a bug and here we are.
Fully upgraded bogue fighters with fighter ship upgrades and I go against a langley fighter group and as they clash suddenly 3 of my planes were gone in an instant.
Happened twice.
Fixed mods when?
>>121427390
Never
>>121426203
Nah m8 I was in a T7 game and Gydeon was on the opposite team in a Hiryu with the +1 fighter/bomber perk. Guess he wanted to farm lower tiers with his maxed out captain. He still out outplayed by our own Hiryu somehow and Gydeon performed worse than his own team's Ryujo.
hey /wowsg/, i've been playing for about a week. how are my stats?
Someone mind telling me the size of their WoWS folder? My SSD is low on space and I forgot to check before I uninstalled.

o-ok but i haven't even unlocked a tier 5 ship yet
>Play IJN BBs
>47% winrate
>Switch to USN BBs for the hell of it
>Suddenly, 70% winrate in the past week
I don't understand. Everything about IJN ships on paper seemed to appeal to me more than the American ships by miles. Many times, when I'm in an American BB, I curse that I don't have enough speed, or that my firing range is too short, or that I didn't have enough health to tank fires and flooding. Why am I winning so much? Is it because I bought a nendoroid of pic related, and she's blessing me with with the power of the abyss to sink filthy IJN scum?
How did the new torpedo bomber things effect Jap carriers? Hiryuu specifically. I researched it a long time ago, but I've held off on buying it because I heard the Jap TBs were going to get an inverted spread. This didn't happen, but I'd still like to hear about the current situation. I just got out of a match where both teams Hiryuus scored under 1000xp...
>>121428228
because you got the bb experience playing ijn bb
>>121428218
how have you not unlocked a tier 5 after that many matches, are you playing co-op battles?
>>121428131
Good shit. I got 20GB free, hopefully it'll be faster.
>>121428317
no but i've been playing lots of different ships at a time and i recently started leveling up my kraut cruisers after a few games in the tier 4 USN BB
>>121428471
just some advice, try and do at least your ship's hp worth of damage per game & get 1 kill per game, unless you're in a DD, then try to do three to four times as much.
>>121428206
I know that feeling

Give me gold and i'll change it. Its an old username from a long ass time ago, and i'm not spending money to change it.
>>121428228
Clap BB's allow for harder carrying late game due to armor profiles and soft stats.
>>121428228
Closer range means better accuracy, I guess.
Also, Abyssals aren't USN dude. USN are girls.

what's the fucking point
Any idea when we're getting the rest of the German tech tree, or is WG just going to sit on their arses patting each other on the back for actually doing something good for 0.5.1 for the next year?
>>121434323
>FFA mode
Why would you want a mode where only DD's can win?
>>121434630
We'll probably get a line of Britbong ships, most likely a BC/BB line, then I figure they'll start filling out the rest of the Sov and German tree's. Right now I think WG is just trying to get out contents, instead of spending a ton of time making whole trees.
>>121434323
>no free for all mode
What would be funny is nation locked mode, with no mixed teams. All jap (axis) on side, all us (allies) on the other.
Would be interesting
>>121434661
obviously it'd be classlocked so it's all DDs or all BBs or whatever. all CVs would be funny but I don't think it'd work out.
>>121434910
>burger girl looks more Asian than the Jap girl
>>121434910
who would win in an as-built fight between yamamamamamamamoto and Iowa?who would win in last operational configuration? :^)

tirpitz...
>>121435146
Could CIWS shoot down incoming shells?
>>121435146
Given a parity in crew, commanders, and supplies, I'd give both to Yamato, I seriously doubt that an Iowa could stand up to a Yamato alone in a straight up fight in any configuration.
>>121435178
Lets do some quick math.
12 Hakuryus.
8 Squadrons each.
96 squadrons in the air per side
24 Hakuryus equals 192 Squadrons at once in the air.
>>121434827
>We'll probably get a line of Britbong ships, most likely a BC/BB line, then I figure they'll start filling out the rest of the Sov and German tree's.
I guess, but this one line at a time bullshit annoys the fuck out of me, I'd much rather spend a little while longer waiting and get an actual tree.
>>121435197
>there will never be a WoWS for the pre-dreadnought era where the prime fighting range is within 9km and all the battleships have rams
>pre-dreadnoughts will always be shitty tier 2s that can't do anything in this game
It sucks to be interested in obscure time periods.
>>121435426
Your forgetting that Iowa outranged Yamato because radar
>>121435313
Are you seriously comparing a single BB with 6km range to half a team full of DDs spamming walls of torps 10-20 km out every 30 seconds?
Frankly I'd be happy to finally be able to just get in range of the Tirpitz's torps
>>121435146
Did the Iowa have her fancy radar targeting then?
because if so probably the burgers
otherwise hotel
>>121435426
>Iowa wouldnt be able to win with 16 Harpoons and 32 Tomahawks
Please
Why did they release vodka DDs before making any bong ships? Why make ships for a nation that ended up being almost irrelevant navally instead of ships for Europe's foremost naval power at the time?
>>121435146
>radar allowed
Iowa
>radar not allowed
Yamato
The ability for Iowa to track a moving target while Iowa also moved, and track it accurately, would be an insurmountable advantage against Yamato. I'm a Hotel man as much as the next here, but that's the simple truth of the matter. By 1944, Burger tech was light years ahead of Jap tech. If no radar fire control is allowed, then Yamato has a very good chance of winning.

>Why make ships for a nation that ended up being almost irrelevant navally instead of ships for NOT RUSSIA
Dude, it's not that hard to understand why
>>121435960
Because Russians make up a huge portion of their market and they already started the game off with two of Russia's other most hated nations, Japan and AMERICA.
Anyways Warspite was in before ruskies.

If the Sea Sparrow were installed it would use them, don't know if the CIWS can stop shells since the system wasn't designed for that.

not guaranteed to be a 'bug'... but is in fact working as intended possibly.
Perk clearly states "100% increase to combat performance of fighters for each tier of difference between them..
SO a langley with T3 (stock) planes has 21 dps and 501 survival.
A bogue with 'best' planes has 35 dps and 940 survival. AND ARE TIER V's
that is a difference of two tiers.
So 21dps vs 35 dps and 560 vs 940
the 35 of course should win WITHOUT that perk..
toss the perk into the mix and ^ becomes
63 vs 35 and 1680 vs 940
Note this is not counting any module bonuses..
So that would certainly cause the higher tiered fighters to get RAPED considering the langley has nearly double the dps and survival rolls.
6 dice rolls with ___ chance to insta-kill the 'better' planes.
So there is no reason to use top tier fighters for FIGHTER VS FIGHER planned loadouts.
Anybody have the post/cap showing how to calculate the % to kill a plane? (like 23% per plane dice roll for langley to kill a hoshou plane vs 14% for hoshou.. prior to this patch of course.)
I seem to have misplaced it and am curious how ludicrous the % chance is with this new setup.
TL;DR: Simple math shows that the lower tier turns into the hulk for double or triple damage against higher tier, :^)
>one of the main features of the patch is events and challenges
>no events available
>no challenges available
Absolutely ebin.
>>121437534
nvm, located it.
"Chance of 1 Squad to shoot down 1 Plane:
Total DPS / Survivability = (X)*100%/sec"
For the Langley: 63 * 6 = 378(Lang dps) / 940 (bog's surv.) = .40212 (40.21% chance per second(46.9% with 7 fighters))
For the Bogue: 35 x 6 = 210 (bog's dps) / 1680 (Lang surv.) = 0.125 (12.5% chance per second (14.5% with 7 fighters))
So yeah! That'd explain it. (I am assuming the talent actually increases the survival rate, and not just the damage.) and again, the above is not counting the % increase from modules.
and the numbers are NOT cumulative.. (two squads vs 1 would be two 'rolls' of 40% and NOT a single roll of 80%)
>playing without aim assist
wow this is ass. I mean, I'm leading fine but they're all a little off from being good hard hitting salvoes.
>>121439942
Confirmation bias, you're only experiencing standard RNG spread but contributing it to lacking your shitter mod
No matter what I do it wont let me install WoWS, what the fuck.

It's neat that some of the small guns auto attack nearby ships tho
>>121442147
Are you 20GB SSD guy? In that case, you actually need more than 20GB to download and install the game, after that it only uses 18.4GB
>>121442650
The range on the kawachi made me so mad the first time I played it that I stopped playing the game for a week.
>>121442650
At least you're not in the South Carolina. Don't worry, Myogi is much faster and fires much further, and it's not long till you unlock Kongo "Tier 5 Goddess" Bongo after that.
>>121442650
Secondaries REALLY need a significant buff to their accuracy, even at the expense of a nerf to other things on a BB.
As they are they are COMPLETELY useless 99% of the time.
>>121435146
Yamato. At least during good weather.
Iowas FC can't secure enough hits while being outside Yamatos immunity zone.
Once the range is around 20km Yamatos armor and size carries the day.
>>121442686
Tried installing on my HDD too, didn't work. It's not a problem with the SSD. Anyway, I sent a support ticket with the log file so hopefully it can be worked out.

Lucky you. I'm in a stock Karl and the best I've done so far is 48k damage.
>>121444875
that's the best you're likely to get, desu senpai
>>121445000
Yeah I know, I just sat behind an island at the exit of a narrow channel and torped two Kumas.
>>121443608
They were like firehoses. You were unstoppable at close range if you could dodge torpedoes or catch them on cooldown. The most fun I've ever had in this game was playing Nagato back then. I guess it was just too confusing for people to learn to stay the fuck away from the floating fortress.
>new patch broke the botegrill mods I had
>the old modders have died or something
>the only alternatives are the pravda ones and they're too weeab-y for me
suffering
Is it worth upgrading Mutsuki to Hull C, or should I just blow through to unlocking Hatsuharu?
>>121446485
I agree the old modder was simple but pravda team is fucking too much.
>>121446613
mutsuki C hull with the gun upgrade makes it actually capable of shooting because while the hull upgrade removes 2 turrets, the gun upgrade Doubles the rate of fire of the remaining turrets, and vastly increases their traverse speed.
>>121446485
pravda is of way too poor taste
>unlock ranked battles

ha ha ha.
How's the Aurora? Got it for free last night and I have yet to try it.
>>121448936

>>121448936
Fucking based.
It's only real vice is that its slow, and the turrets turn like their covered in rust - both issues that can be mitigated with proper planning. Other then that, its basically a St Louis, but I notice its shell performance seems much better
>>121449183
>Aim assist dies

This is why we can't go 1.0.0.
Torps upgrade worth getting on the Karl or should I just get past it as fast as I possibly can?
>>121449462
Get past it.
As fast as you possibly can.
Don't force yourself to play it any longer then have too.
>>121449235
So it has good penetration?
>>121449591
Alrighty.
>>121449462
Just freexp the konig, nothing is worth it on the karl.
>>121449723
I don't really just have 18k free EXP sitting around m8.
How does one into Yorck? That worthless AP shell hang time and worthless HE shell damage is really killing the experience.
>>121449774
Too bad, you could have saved yourself a lot of unneeded pain
>>121449805
Yeah, I might just play my Sims and Arkansas Beta with EXP increase flags all day.
>>121449598
Might just be all mental, but I get better games out of the Aurora then I do in the St Louis. The shell groupings seem tighter, and RNG tends to give me more fires, more penetrations.
I wouldn't be surprised if it had favorable RNG coding simply because its a premium, its russian, and its the flagship of the russian navy (once it goes back into service next year)
>>121450072
>100+ ship goes back into service next year
Why am I not surprised?
>>121435960
Because they aren't making ships for free.
>>121450171
It's the Russian navy. They probably have another 18,000 mile long mission for it.
>>121450171
It's operating cost will still be less then putting Iowa back into service. So, in a question of whose more retarded, I can't really decide which side wins.
>>121450072

>yfw Putin sails Aurora around the world to have a 1v1 rematch with Mikasa
>>121449963
The Karl is literally a tier 2 ship stuck in tier 4. I don't even fear them in my Gnevny like I do Phoenixes or Kumas.
>>121450360
>In January 2013 Russian Defence Minister Sergey Shoygu announced plans to recommission Aurora and make her the flagship of the Russian Navy due to her historical and cultural importance. On 21 September 2014 the ship was towed to the Admiralty Shipyard in Kronstadt to be overhauled, to return in 2016.
Yep, she's coming back.
>>121450441
I would pay money to see it. Putin would probably captain the thing himself
btw china made a replica of their ironclad dingyuan
i suppose they are going to return her into the service too :^)

>>121450971
Fun little fact, the only US Navy ship currently in service with a combat record and ships sunk, is a 217 year old Heavy Frigate.
>>121451043
hm, don't they recently sunk some boats with somali pirates?
>10h left on premium

rip
>>121451043
Looks like a cute little toy:^)
>>121450932
Shit, the more I look at this thing, the more it looks like a Star Fox ship.Forgot the pic
>>121451102
According to wiki, the last ship with combat experience before Conny was the USS Simpson, a Perry class Frigate, that sunk a cartel submarine.
>>121451402
>a cartel submarine
I knew smuggling was a profitable business but fucking hell, they had a submarine?
>>121451451
i don't think an old diesel-electric submarine costs much more than a cargo ship
>>121451486
But still. I'm also surprised they knew how to run it right.
>>121451374
christ that thing is ugly. Function over form, I guess.
>navy thought stealth ships were a dead end 20 years ago

Shoulda just kept the sea shadow in service. What a waste of money.
Wow, look at this retard. USN is starting to look like special olympics of the sea
