Also, reminder to keep the thread civil.
While shipfus are fine, keep them to a minimum.

a few pictures with game discussion is good
dumping a bunch of images with every post to shitpost with is bad

Congrats, KANTAI!
So is this first to 3 or first to 5 for the finals?

Alright, I have 3 more cheering botegirls representative of the Kantai player names. Don't let me down, Kantai.
>>146031507
where are our upbotes you fags
this isnt rapespam
WHERE IS MY RAPESPAM
I guess Autistmati is protesting by dumping shit for getting banned in the previous thread.
>bestiality-fags
worst taste all-round
>>146032420
upboted you just now
t.smashpatriarchy
I mean, im going to fap to this shit anyways, but goddamn it, can't we have a thread where it isnt completely shitted up by continuous off topic posting?
what is going on????
Ganbare, KANTAI!
Close it out!
>>146032806
ty :3
>>146032868
some autist spamming bestiality trying to get the thread deleted
>>146032938
He wants us to play SO and join him in the superior general obviously.
Janitor please delete this thread. The picture in OP is from a game called "Kantai Collection" and it has nothing to do with World of Warships. Do your fucking job.
Janitor please do not delete this thread. A fair number of us are watching a tournament for WoWS where we are rooting for the KANTAI team.

Daily reminder to use the report function.
>all these DDs dying to torps
just got my weeb bote, don't really bother with BBs much so what should I use for captain skills?
>Kantai loses all their destroyers
jesus, get it together
>>146033795
Mako is autistic and struggles with social cues, you didn't know?
Why are the Amagi's guns so stupidly inaccurate compared to the Nagato's?
i hope the bulb breaks in her
Alright, game 5. You can do this.
How do I be a good DD in the hatsuharu when my torps are slow as shit and I can't get closer than 6.5km for my detection to go off?
>>146034016
Because theyre not?
>>146034171
the dispersion is higher
>>146034141

>>146034141
Use your guns. Go gunbote. It works.

He was but got kicked and started doxing & harassing their family with creepy phone calls. He wasn't the only one but that's the short story.
MODS = GODS
>>146035194
Lol what a fag.
>>146034347
Could someone post a replay or video of the IJN gunbote meme in action. I've been trying it out without much success.
>>146035194
what about the guy accused of having child porn on his computer? Or is that something completely different?
>>146034565
Burn BB's down, distract them from shooting your allies. Shoot DD's.
You still use your torps, but you don't rely entirely on them. Using your guns help you get more XP than if you relied entirely on being stealthy.
>>146035434
>Burn BB's down
m8, their secondaries will shred me, my torps almost never hit because they're so slow and easy to avoid
>>146034347
>mfw i had to deal with a gunboat bucky and a farragut in my tashkent
Jesus fuck it was annoying as hell. Not to mention that there were hippers around that were also shooting at me occasionallyI still won
>this restart drama
Oh boy.
>>146035841
It's delicious, I can't believe WG wasn't watching this live so they could pull the plug at the start.
>>146035652
just forget the hatsuharu
the jap DD's died with the minekaze which is far better than the mutsuki. The hatsuharu is the same thing as a mutsuki with a 5th gun which you give up later on anyway. Its shit. The torps take way too long to reload even with the extra skills
>>146035841
>>146036039
What happened?
>>146036441
Since WG hasn't put a spectator mode in their game yet, the streamers have to get in ships and die so they can view other ships at will. One streamer's ship spawned really far away from the rest of his team, so he had to have a guy come over and kill him, which wasted that team's time, and WG called a rematch once they saw it on the stream (five minute delay and all).
>dueling out with a Texas in my Kongo
>suddenly get a kill message
>Texas is still alive
>DD suicided on my secondaries
>no torps in the water
Laughingbotesluts.jpg
>>146036441
Mejash (the streamer for the KANTAI side) spawned soooooo far away from the KANTAI team that he had to steam towards the rest of the team and KANTAI had to pull off one destroyer for a few minutes just to kill him. You can see how this is a problem in a Domination mode with literally identical team composition.
There was a large delay between that and when the game was called off because of the stream delay and the organizers are actually following the stream because lol no spectator mode.
>>146036596
OH WOW
>>146036697
you should see the drama in chat, shit was hilar
>>146036596
>>146036687
How fucking hard is it to add the spectator mode from WoT to ships? Like jesus fuck.
>>146036596
why was that one guy trying to do a spectator restart? why did he want his ship to die?
>>146036792
Because WG is incompetent and don't have spectator mode in the game. So someone has to join the team and die so they can jump around and follow other ships.
>>146036782)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
>>146036986
>features you'd think would be easily transferable from wot, but aren't because WG would rather code the same thing from the ground up
>>146036986
has WG fixed the issue where the flag that gives -100% to detonation risk doesn't actually make you have 0% to detonation?
Fuck spectator mode. I want a functional chat client that actually shows everyone in the room and doesn't clear itself for no fucking reason.
>>146035331
Sorry, I don't think anyone has gotten around to do it.
I need to figure out how to enable replays, and the next time I play a Fubuki I'll post a replay. Hopefully sometime this week.
With how much RNG there is how the fuck are people playing competitively?

Well, good job, Destroyer_Minekaze.
>>146038017
Because of the bow-on meme, you should've noticed that the BBs were largely firing HE at each other. 25% fire chance is no joke.
>>146038031
>OP got more doubloons than TittyShitFucks and CANTAI
>>146038142
wow, this game is fucked.
what a fucking joke game
>split reward
>OP is the true winner in the end
>>146038017
not to mention detonation
even with flag DD still have very small chance of detonation
As CO of KNTAI, whatever happened here we had fun. Thanks to those of you rooting for us. Maybe WG can fix their fucking shit next time.
>>146038181
>>146038268
I thought they would pool the #1 and #2 rewards?

holy shit we are actually being invaded by /r/wows and the official forum

Well done.
I don't get why WG couldn't just call for an extra round to break the tie, but you guys played well. Extra points for removing OP.
>>146038330
>-100% to detonation
>still have chance to detonate
fuck this game
>>146038051
Thanks bby. I got fucked the 4th game on plane kills but I ended up forcing their DDs out of A and killing one of them. The game where I fucked up my strafes is the game we won.
>>146038689
KNTAI wanted the rematch, but TSF was screaming no because they didn't want to risk losing.
>>146038845
please be my CVnt so i can win
t. mako
>>146038689
We should be blaming Mejash and Q for being retarded enough to let the game go on for that long
It wasnt Mejashs or Qs caII. It was SterIingArchers as he and other APOC members run the Ieague.
>>146038705
It happens when you have other flag that increase detonation chances
>>146038932
What a depressing fag you are.
>>146038932
but I like my boat daughtu team
or maybe ill play with blahz0r and sniping_panda next season I'm not sure yet
>>146039179
it happens when you don't even run that flag
if you equip the 100% reduction to detonation flag and nothing else, you still have a chance to detonate
KNTAI what do you think of the AnumatiXTsunmati relationship?
>>146038338
when was the last time you posted here mine?
>>146039326
>blahzor playing with Mako who defends Anu and AS
Good luck I guess.
>>146039453
I wish I knew what this was
>>146039453
Anumati is obnoxious both here and in-game.
>>146039506
I'm not Mine, but I posted here the other day. I tend to lurk here more than anything else.
You agree that Hotel is the QT-est, right KNTAI?

>some stupid ass DD that happened to be in the area, that can see them from across the map, that can evade them better than any other ship that fires his OWN torpedos himself, drives right into the path and screams and cries when he somehow "didn't see them"
>>146043827
>>146043925
to be fair it depends on the situation
if he was playing a shimakaze or something and the guy ran into them at max range he could have been on the other side of the map when they were launched
but yeah if they were at like 10km from launch or something then he's just retarded
>>146044170
kys
>>146044196
That would
A) Be a stupid ass shot to take
B) Still be un-fucking-acceptable
C) Only something a shitter would do because the 20km torps are shit
SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT
>>146044170
Nigger he already has enough danger in front of him he doesn't need you adding to that because you think torping at 10 km is a good idea
>>146044376
>he can't possibly be head responsible for not being aware
>even though thats his primary defense is BEING AWARE OF THE SHIT AROUND HIM
How the fuck does my FRONT gun get destroyed if all the shells hit the BACK of my ship?
>>146044456
>kill team mate
>Its his fault
>I din du nuffin
no. Firing torps when there are still allies in front of you is retarded. quit blaming others, it is your mistake.
>>146044291
I'm not disputing that, but at that point it would be just as much the other guy's fault as it is his, especially with how stupidly slow those things travel now.
Something like a Khabab could probably change direction and make it from one side of the map to the other just to run into them at max range if they were really determined to get themselves killed, and that's kind of beyond the limit of accounting for.
And yes it's obviously situational as hell but the stupidity of players in this game knows no limit.
>>146045142
HE WASNT EVEN IN FRONT OF ME HE DROVE ACROSS THE MAP AND HAPPENED TO INTERCEPT MY TORPS AND CRIED WHEN HE SOMEHOW DIDN'T SEE THEM
>>146045085
slav magic
same way you can get citpenned by shells hitting outside of your hull
>>146045150
No. Its not.
>>146045085
Its the same retarded shit where you get hit in the nose and your propeller breaks or your rudder jams even though theres nothing mechanical about those two parts in the front of the ship
>>146045240
>what are server desyncs
If you seriously think the visual shell effect is relevant, you might have brain problems.
>>146045352
I'd say you'd have brain problems if you think I'm basing this on the visual effects in the game.
>>146045085
because according to the server, the shells hit your front turret even though on your screen they hit your ass
At what point did Ibuki get the 100mm secondaries? I watch videos from a few months back and she still has the 127mm ones from Myoko, so this change seems pretty recent.
>>146045352
It isn't a desync when the projectiles fired are projected to a position on the map where they land
Also if your rear end gets chared that means it hit your rear
>>146045515
A few months ago.
>>146045341
It's just like the good old days where the German tanks could have their engines set on fire at the rear because a round hit the transmission at the front of their tank despite the fact that it never happened in real life and makes absolutely no sense.
>>146045687
in Battlefield 3 if you drove a tank forward at a guy shooting an RPG, the RPG would clip through the tank and explode at the rear causing damage to the rear of the tank which does double damage. Huge fucking bug they never fixed basically made tanks explode in 2 hits.
>>146045905
If you use the 100% reduction to detonation flag on a DD and no other flags, you still have a chance to detonate

>high quality WG mechanics

>>146045687
Transmission fluid is really fucking flammable though, so that makes sense.
I stopped playing when that burger sperg got someone mad enough to tk him on stream and I'm wondering if British cruisers is coming any time soon? It was supposed to come out months ago according to WG's magazine in December but I see nada. Are Russian cruisers any good or should I keep waiting for the chosen nation?
>>146046385
No its not, transmission fluid has a huge ignition temperature. It'll boil before it ignites. Ever see some retard burn out a clutch by keeping the car in neutral?
>>146046496
>Brit cruisers
After German BBs, which should come out in August.
>Russian cruisers
Excellent, several border on OP, Moskva is the only serious rival to Zao at tier 10. Who could have expected?
>>146046385
The fact is that it wasn't something that happened in real life so it was an issue that should have never been in the game.
>>146046690
this game doesn't even attempt to be accurate to real life because it was designed by a bunch of retards who think that "we can pick and choose when we want to be realistic"
>>146046506
>No its not, transmission fluid has a huge ignition temperature. It'll boil before it ignites.
You know what happens to be extremely god damn high temperature?
A fucking shell flying at mach 3 exploding inside your transmission housing. That shit will burn.
>>146046646
>several border on OP
>tier 9 guns at tier 6
What could possibly go wrong?
>>146046871
)))))))
>>146046690
WG ende dup removing the transmission fires, but how about adding a random chance for German tanks to spontaneously burst into flame when going up slight grades.
The Germans lost five whole platoons of Panthers that way at Kursk, and about 13 Ferdinand's which burned through their electric transmissions just trying to go up a tiny hill.
>>146047062
Germany strong.
what ship line requires the least skill?
>>146045184
If he wasn't in front of you, he must have been either level with you, or behind you when you launched your torps. If that was the case, he would have to have overtaken your torps to get hit by them. The slowest torps in the game travel at 44 kn. Two or three ships can reach that speed under select circumstances, but none of them should ever encounter 44 kn torps.
It seems the assertion that he wasn't in front of you must be faulty.
>>146045452
>>146045524
>tfw surrounded by superstitious turbo retard fucks
jdimsa
>>146048146
so lets see the real hitbox then to prove that it's not the case
>>146045085
They might overpen and hit the back of your turret
Don't doubt slav hit calculation
>>146048019
IJN BB line. Point your bow, and click on enemy hips for massive damage.
Alternatively IJN CA line. Load HE and press LMB.
>>146046871
not t9 fire rate and also being very squishy though

>torpedo baBBy
>it floods
>baBBy repairs flooding
>shoot baBBy to set him on fire
>>146053606
Nah thats it, I quit the game for ages due to lex being a fucking slap in the face and income being far too low in sub T5.
Also did you know babies on NA server get discounted repairs and heaps of other perks over Asia server?
>>146055462
Presently trying to get my kohlberg and nicholas
>>146055462
Yes, I've been complaining about it ever since they decided to give it to every server outside of SEA.
Pretty sure they even buffed the NA or EU one to be an even bigger discount than when it started off recently too. But nope, we still get stuck with like 350k repair bills or something at T10.
>>146056048
It's ironic because you guys get the best community managers. I've visited the SEA site more than once to get details on patch notes that weren't available on the NA version.
>>146055462
FUCKING NA BABBIES AND THEIR 40000% DISCOUNT ON REPAIRS !!!!!!
>>146056117
As a business decision it makes sense because Asia is mentally pre-conditioned to the idea of pay to win and microtransactions.
North America still believes in 'owning what you pay for'
>>146056092
Yeah outside of that I actually like the server, we get decent enough events and stuff like patch notes so I don't mind, but as someone who likes to play T10 please god give me the same repair discount as all the other server.
>>146048778
>squishy
>>146058040
play ranked, get repair flags and -10% flag for the tier 10
>>146058190
a premium stomps in ranked, so?
she is still squishy
>>146058040
Guess you'll just have to be a good goyim and pay for prem.
>>146058273
You think I don't already?
I have like over 200 as it is.
>>146058190
Well, giving all those cruisers enough tange to burn half the baBBies from beyond their range does offset that squishyness quite nicely.
One might call this a situation that isof balans)))))))))))))))
>>146058802
Some people don't actually have TXs and are just pretending to know what they're talking about.
>>146059317
It's no coincidence that the T6 CAs with the longest range are both Soviet. And that's even before considering that they have spotter aircraft.
>>146060151

Is of historical accuracy!

#rememberTsushima
>>146060214
God bless Russia tech.
What happened to tier 10 CVs? This kind of average damage is flat out embarrassing.
>>146061057
they've been getting nerfed over and over again
the lower tiers have been hit far harder though, frankly the whole class needs a complete redesign because they've basically only ever been completely broken in one direction or the other as long as they've been in the game
>>146061057
Actually, Hakuryu having nearly the same average damage than Yamato feels about right. That's how it should be.
>>146061057
good riddance
the last t10 cv which i met yesterday killed 6 ships including one shotting me, the less we have skycancer the better
>People hate CVs
Why and is it strange to miss CVs? I actually like CVs in the game as a CA/CL player
>>146062675
It's almost like DDs and BBs have a much different interaction with them than with CA/Ls.
Especially the T10 ones in their prime.

155mm Mogami is forever nerfed
>>146061057
What is the problem?
Well within the normal range of damage, and they seem to get tons of plane kils, above average ship kills and have exceptional survival rates.
>>146061057
most of CV player are garbage even at T10
>constantly get into CA AA range

>>146065517
Then where did all the good CV players go?
>>146065765
gulag
>>146065765
they left when WG started nerfing their ships
>>146065765
The actually good CV players still kill six ships per game.
The ''''''''good''''''''' CV players who were able to get 3k avg XP in their clicky flatships got butthurt when WG brought some semblance of balance to the game and are still on the forums, crying for more AA nerfs and new CV buffs.
>>146066652
Like who?
Frankly I don't remember the last time I saw a CV influence the game as much as you indicated
And I play t5-10
>>146066925
presumably he's talking about players like slaymad
t.not staybad

I'd like to see him pull those numbers with Essex..
>>146067343
Meh, my Ranger is much better.Guess the number of battles.
>>146067343

What's so impressive about those numbers? I mean compared to other good players in different classes?
>>146067771

>>146067771

>tfw lightning struck twice

autismo and staybad can go and stay go, we gots the real champ here niggaz
>>146067610

>tfw your strike ranger gets matched against another strike ranger
I've never experienced """fun""" in wows but those few occasions were pretty damn close
>>146067657
I don't think anyone is trying to claim that the Essex is still good.
>it's another 'game ends to points with like 1 death ' episode
>>146067821
>compared to other good players in different classes?
Nothing.
Which indicates that the balancing changes WG implemented were sorely needed, considering the hugely inflated XP, damage and WR numbers CVs consistently achieved before those changes.
>>146068637
Then why do players like >>146066652 still insist CVs are overpowered?
I'm so confused
>>146068637
This. The current average damage numbers on CV's are just about right. They should be similar to same-tier BB's, since both are capital ships. BB's can tank damage, CV's can quickly move around the map. Both should do the same amount of damage.
Though if it was up to me, I'd have reduced AA damage (essentially, only a bit better of what it was), and decrease torpedo/bomb damage to compensate.
JUST

I'm so sorry
