First for Mako is a scheming lelbournian cunt and fuck this game because reasons
Also, reminder to keep the thread civil.
Shipfu posting is fine, but keep them in sensible numbers and don't let them get out of control.
Everything is best in moderation.
Third for Mogamin 155 is still kill after doing a few test-plays, even with the improved turret traverse mod.
Why did I stop playing overwatch for this?

>>146346401
CVs in general aren't worth playing, it just gets more and more cancerous as you go up. Go sample the IJN gunbote meme or something.
>>146346630
I think the first four carriers are more or less fine as things are right now, just having the occasional difficulty spikes vs Clevelands, Texas's (however that's pluralized), and non-retarded AS Bogues in T5
But I'm super hesitant about T6 CVs for both nations because of T8 uptiering, Saipans, IJN AS super-cancer, and not having enough replacement planes as compensation for dealing with all of this shit. I also don't know if T7 has it any better if only due to replacements
Also currently at the Mutsuki, I'm regretting every moment
>>146346630

>>146350163
I dunno. New Patch usually kicks the threads into overdrive.
>>146350712
there really wasn't anything special to this patch...some reworked modifications and a few maps etc. everybody just wants KM BBs so we can all be disappointed by how gimped WG makes them for not being russian
>>146346401
>Playing any CV without at least two TB squadrons
Try the IJN line instead.
>>146347218
I'm on the Ryujo currently and finding it ok. I often run out of fighters if I'm against an AS loadout but I find I have plenty of bombers to get me through a match.
Mutsuki is the superlative torpedobote. Play to her strengths and stop complaining, r i swer on me mum…
The gunbote meme is in full force for T7 and up.

Shut up Wave.
>SlayMad: nooo i think it's always been > 50
>>146351047
The way I see a 1/1/0 Bogue (what I use) vs Zuihou matchup is that the Bogue wins the fighter trades but doesn't do as much damage per strike
If the Zuihou commits by will or force to two fighter trades then the Bogue gets full air control and can prevent the Zuihou from doing any more damage
US single TB isn't bad at least at T5, but I think I've only killed one or two DDs with it ever
It's no secret that I'm performing better in the Zuihou, but the Bogue can accomplish much more than what most use it for (seriously AS does nothing but take at best two CVs out of a match)
>>146352207
Explain Akagi being in a video made by the USN, Wave.
https://my.mixtape.moe/dtyysv.mp4
>>146352443
This tbqh
After the plane hp/speed rebalancing, 1-1 bogue is now on par with, if not superior to Zuihou. The lone fighter is fast and powerful enough with strafe to shut down any loadout of t5 CVs, and the gorgeous USN TB spread and the TB itself being t6 and 127kt is a massive buff compared to what it used to be.
Although Zuihou is technically more flexible, Bogue is still a great CV to play

I'm thinking of trying out my Hotel as a full secondary build, because it was pretty funny on the test server if you stack all the new upgrades.
I don't have the dosh though because I'm saving up for my Zao

Not really, I'm the guy who had hope for a reborn 155mm Mogami build, but see the third post for how that turned out. At least my Arkansas Beta is more accurateish now.

How many actually play KanColle here? I think the ones who don't are the same """retards""" constantly uploading images of it and claiming how Steel Ocean is superior.
>>146356379
I can't recall anybody really mentioning Steel Ocean other than the autist/s complaining about 'the players who allegedly come from there to shit on the thread'' But do carry on.I don't shltpost here. You lot do that well enough on your own without outside assistance.I do enjoy watching however.
The patch seems interesting enough. Cyclone having the ability to occur on most/all maps has been interesting in my time thus far.
>>146356997
>not the first post in the thread with this IP
Huh, that explains the namedropping from you SMD. So, can we see proof of you playing KanColle?
>>146356379
I play it and I try to avoid posting it much in the threads, I don't use any KC mods or anything either.
>>146355882
It was the test server so I have no reason to not slap premium consumables everywhere.

I play it but I dont spam images of it here like an obnoxious faggot nor need to avatarfag with it.
anyone else get a weird bug where your torpedo or gun indicator is green and ready to fire but no matter how many times you click your mouse it just won't fire for like a second?
>>146356379
>Steel Ocean is superior.
it is. Theres far less RNG which flat out makes it better
>>146357202
That wouldn't serve a purpose, so I'm good. Thanks.
I'm curious how many times it'll take before it gets into your brain that I don't see a point shilling or shitposting here when you lot start the witch hunts and fires on your own just fine.
I have mindless fun in warships now and again when events pop up or I don't feel like thinking whilePlaying with whatever memer feels like grouping up, or just sticking to solo.
It is really quite sad the decline of these threads where
>Fun
was had by most with relatively low amounts of complaints about bote-posting. (Not counting Rapespammer, who annoyed just about everybody.)

>>146358312750ti 2fps is a joke of course, more like mid 30 and I haven't tried it in battle. But at least I can make some screenshots in port.

That's how air strike on battleship looks like.
>>146358527138.10 US Dollar card.why, sempai
>>146357908
Sometimes, it seems like it happens when turning or elevating the guns and it's just on the edge of what the game/server deems is able to fire, so the visuals are just not synced up with the mechanical element properly.
>>146358352
I don't know what to tell you man. I really don't shitpost here. In game, sure! Won't deny that in the slightest. But not in the threads, that falls on others. I generally stick to lurking or posting on topic, non-shitposting things.

>>146344951
thunderchild was a small torpedo ram like this one, not a battleship
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Polyphemus_(1881)
also a very amusing construction, she was made when there weren't fast moving guns which could penetrate her armor and supposedly could get close enough to ram before bigger guns could catch her and was a ship which could both ram and launch torpedoes from her ram
>The ship had five submerged 14-inch-diameter torpedo tubes, and carried 18 Mark II torpedoes. With a range of just 600 yards, these had a 26-pound guncotton charge and a speed of 18 knots, only marginally faster than Polyphemus.
what rank do you have to make it to so you start the next season at rank 15?
American High Tier cruisers get AFT because that's the only way they are relevant yeah?
The +1 fighter perk is such garbage, why don't other classes also get mandatory autowin crap like this?

>>146369178
Watch out, you will trigger SMD.
Why does everyone leave destroyers alone? Like, as a destroyer I try to spot and move up on enemies, but no one comes to support me. I see other destroyers having the same issue. Why does no one play like a team?
>>146368194
I'm not disputing that, point is that it would be really dumb if three shimas couldn't kill one BB just because he knows the secret trick of steering.
>>146369420
>I try to spot
Stop doing this, just farm damage and cap points.
Cooperation is not rewarded or encouraged by WG.
If WG manages to implement complex things like 'support XP' or 'XP for spotting' you can try again.
I mean, it's obviously impossible to call their office in Minsk for some tips on how to do things like XP for support and spotting.
Just like it is impossible to turn on AA in their engine.
>>146369647
Welcome to WoWS after the alpha, where the only way to make torps worth using is to turn the cancer level up to 9001 by using 3 t10 DDs in a div.
OK, maybe using 3 kamiakaze Rs or 3 isokazes, too. But that's more sealclubbing that real cancer.
Becasue if you don't do it t hat way, you can just stop playing DD.
>implying you don't automatically spot others due to the low delectability as they can't see you and you have to be near the enemy to do anything
>implying you want CAs or BBs to be near DDs when they're just going to die since they're not exactly as stealthy

How hard it is to actually hit that .. feature?
Whenever im playing Nagato in ranked I take constant 10k+ angled hits. I would like to know what am I doing wrong. Or is Nagatos armor just irredeemably bad?

wow this is a thing? i thought he was joking. somehow this general is more ded than /wotg/
>>146372419
I gotten frontal citadel plenty, but thing is, Both Nagato and Colorado have 25mm of bow and stern armour.
Thanks to Lesta's magical 14.2 ratio, that amount of armour is exactly enough for 356mm shells to auto-overmatch. Since Nagato and Colorado use 410mm and 406mm shells, shots through the nose go right on through.
It's very noticeable on Nagato because Nagato's nose is huge, but either T7 BB will take 5 figure damage regularly if they go directly bow on when the shell arc start flattening.
Pic unrelated
>>146377706
fuck off tripfag
>>146377739
This. For all the talk about Colorado's armor being better than Nagato's, just yesterday I citadeled a Colorado from the front with my Nagato.
Tho it's easier to citadel a Nagato from the front because she's just much bigger.

How to fix carrers, v292.3
Since most ships have AA of their own, captain skills gives them even stronger AA and ship upgrades give extra AA, fighters lose a lot of their damage and become an interception/disruption unit. They have do minimal damage when engaged but retain present level damage values for strafing. Fighter vs fighter battles remain the same (relatively speaking).
To compensate for all the extra AA on ships, the consumable power for gives a reduced impact to precision bombing/torping. Only fighters can reduce accuracy to the current levels when affected.
>>146354167
>49% winrate
>>146381080
So fighters get a semi nerf and barrage geta an across a minor nerf? Still wouldnt help and fix things like Iowa AA vs t7 cvs or shokakus against Montanas/DMs
>>146380083
>>146380929>tfw I'm up to 730 hotel pictures so farI have over a thousand in my nagato folder.
>>146381589
Why not give fighters a rocket barrage that somewhat stuns AA emplacements for a small duration?
>>146382216
Rockets would be late war t9/t10 at best and as a replacement for DBs. Fighters strafing ships is already talked about by WG. If you could temporarily disable AA it would be the buff CVs need.
>>146382216
>How to fix fighters and torpedoes
>At 0920, these destroyers finally managed to fire their torpedoes from extreme range, 10,500 yd (9,600 m).[9] Several torpedoes were detonated by strafing aircraft or defensive fire from the carriers, and the rest failed to strike a target.
>>146382540
Yeah because destroyers need to be fucked in the ass even harder. If anything DD efficiency against planes needs to go up and BBs need to be weaker to torps from all sources, but how that can be justified I have no clue.
>>146382730
"wow lets just take WoT damage numbers and multiply them by 10, that will make people play more!!!'
>>146382504
It wouldn't even have to be a debuff to a ship's entire AAA, they could have the rockets RNG and hit individual emplacements if they wanted. I know more RNG is looked down upon here but I think a rocket barrage at T9-10 would make way more sense as an alt attack than the current "strafe" which is literally something WG pulled out of their gaping asshole. Six fighters lining up and shooting all their ammo in a straight line? Is of historical comradsky!
>>146382849
Strafe is arguably an analogue of zoom and boom tactics.
>>146382849
Makes better sense than planes shooting empty sky. With this barrage. Make it heavily damage ship AA so that only ships with the secondary HP module can come out with workable AA after sustained attacks
Diversity in modules tovariach ))))))
>>146382820
I dare you to get 70k damage in a T4 tank.
>>146383207
I think you mean 7k.
>not played for a while
>receive this love for reward
>>146383102
Well it would also serve the dual purpose of buffing USN cvs since they tend to have better fighters. So Midway only has one TB squad to work with but can reliably hit 4-5 torpedoes on a Monty due to rocket barrage.
It gives fighters a purpose but it might be seen as a nerf to cruisers because all a CV has to do is barrage and fuck them up with bombers. Defensive fire would have to be given priority over the rocket debuff
>>146383319
We love you, Luis! (Even if you always die first)
>>146383417
They need to make all nation squadrons 4 man. So USN is like IJN with national pecularities being plane stats and bombing effects instead of retarded 6 man squadrons.
For example a 2/2/4 Midway or 4/2/2 Midway.
A strike Midway with 20 DBs that are IJN accurate would be a monster in the right hands.

I actually think they should go with that:

>Make planes behave like ships: they get turning radius values (obviously way smaller than ships). This also solves the issues with TB's adjusting course at the last minute for unavoidable drops. In turn, now that manual drops are not as unavoidable, AA could be nerfed back a bit.
>IJN fighters are slower but have really small turn radius
>USN fighters are faster but have wide turn radius
>IJN wins in straight 1v1 dogfights
>USN fighters get current barrage, renamed "zoom tactics". IJN planes have the maneuverability to evade, so it all depends on skill.

Well hopefully Lesta shitposts here or maybe we could drop a forum post on the matter. I'm sure people have come up with these sorts of ideas but maybe they're content with how CV balance is. I've been delaying buying Lexington because every game I've seen Lexi v. Shocucku the Lexi gets btfo every time.
>>146383319
I had a 47%er tell everyone to report me because god forbid I prioritized killing the cruiser who was making a beeline to try torp me and my nearly full health instead of helping his unsalvageable ass against the full-health Nagato he charged blindly into. He died, the cruiser died, and then I proceeded to survive and win the game with a friendly DD.The 47%er is now rank 5.FUCK RANKED
>>146384198
WG is cautious of plebbit. Coming here would be nigh unthinkable. You could drop a forum post, but unless its RU they probably wont listen. Hak is losing to Midway on the RU server iirc so good luck getting balancing. Remember that 5.8 or 5.9 is supposed to have CV buffs with the interface update.
>>146384198

The essex is the 2nd worst performing ship in game tier for tier. The worst one is Midway. Which has a 39 percent winrate on the USN and is ded last in sea and EU. USN is shit right now.
>>146387894
Her HE is gimped with terrible krupp values, so expect to do very little HE damage. Sure, fires are a thing, but you need the extra HE or they will take too long to take a toll on the enemy.
Not to mention she's gonna probably have terrible accuracy, like Tirpitz, so good luck getting more than 3 hits per salvo.
Speed is nice, but not all that important in ranked. You need pushing power and I'm not sure her armor, even if it's turtleback, is going to hold up against 16 inch guns.
She's a german ship, so I'm sure WG will find a way to gimp her badly.

And what if you don't set 4 fires? Remember it's random. I've had games in Zao where I set only 4 fires after 150 shells, other times 15 fires after 100 shells.
You can't rely only on that, you need good raw HE damage, which you don't have. Not to mention the AP is also hilariously bad. Good luck penetrating a Colorado broadside.

You mean citadel? I actually never penned Lolorado cit on Pensa
>>146391104
I've citadelled Colo with Buddy before. Im sure it was a freak accident but you can't just say that Colo will be invulnerable broadside. 6-7 normal pens from a 283mm will be a big chunk of damage to a Colorado... and given the current state of Nagato's armor modek I'm sure Scharn will cut thru her like a hot knife thru butter
>>146391104
I've citpenned one in a Indianapolis before, it's certainly possible.

>>146392690
South Carolina's 305mms have 20%, while Yorck and Hindenburg have 12 and 13% fire chance, respectively. With nine guns firing every 17 seconds and probably 15-18% fire chance + DE, I feel like it could be a threat.
>>146393658
Yeah, it'll be possible to be a threat, but I severely doubt it's going to become top tier overnight because of it's ability to consistently beat the Nagato and Colorado.
Don't forget that it's going to have German BB tier main gun accuracy, and while melting stuff works fine for the Hindenburg (although I honestly can't remember the last time I saw one outside of the test server), it fires something like 72 shells a minute and has a much easier time consistently landing them, compared to a bit over 30 shells a minute. Not to mention that I'm not sure if the gun firing angles have been released yet so it's up in the air if all 3 turrets are going to be consistently usable or if it's going to be like the pre-buff NC if you don't just want to be nuked by the 16" guns you're going to be facing.
>>146393658
It's 20% base and once you slap on flags and DE you get 25%. 8-9 shells connecting guarantees AT LEAST one fire which usually causes shitters to pop DCP . Sure RNGesus can screw you over but 25% x9 is pretty RNG-proof
>>146394512
It's kinda like Tirpitz vs. NC/Amagi. Tirp might be inferior in some regards but it still prints 1mil for a good match and is actually quite fun to play. Scharn will also be """fun"""
>>146394950
I'll probably buy one and have fun in it because I'm a good goy and it could be neat to have a different style of BB, but yeah I don't count on selling my Nagato or something because of how confident in the Scharnhorst being the best ranked BB I'd be.

It isn't, just play normally. Though you might want to play a bit more, given you have all of a week or so.

their status is identical to kongou? it might be worth it, i havent got any BB yet. time to HE my way into oblivion
>2. I have a question regarding the latest changes to detection and SA. According to official info and to the circles on the minimap, the penalty appears and disappears immediately if at that moment nobody spotted you. But people noticed there is a certain delay. If, as a DD, I fire at a cruiser, get spotted (SA icon appearing) and within a second hide behind an island, the penalty disappears. On the other hand, If I remained spotted slightly longer, the penalty wouldn't disappear. Is it a bug or a feature ?
>A. In the current spotting system, you remain visible 3 seconds after you have left the line of sights of all enemies. In 0.5.8, SA will take this in consideration. In 0.5.9, we plan to get rid of this delay, along with adding improvements to the way smoke screen work.
5.8 can't arrive soon enough.

The current missions are damage only, no need for a set number of fires, planes downed, etc. Just accumulate damage.
Nagato is QT but not the QTest.
Iowa is fucking insane with the new accuracy mod. Might be confirmation bias but good lawd

She didn't seem much different in either the test server or the few live games I've played of her.
The small change to the one mod doesn't seem too dramatic compared to the changes in the previous patch anyway.

Because you see if the other guy is firing HE or AP.
Which then allows you to either turn to unmask all your turrets or turn to present the smallest target cross-section.

Here's a novel idea:
instead of posting unrelated anime images, discuss the game.

Post botebutt
>>146402463
You can also call out baBBies on your team if they're spamming HE
Altho if I'm not mistaken there is a slight difference in she'll color in the vanilla game but it's hard to differentiate on the fly
>>146402521
If people were doing that there would be no need to post an anime image.

And yet you yourself weren't willing to do such a thing.. So stop throwing stones comradinov.

Haruna because she is the QTest and has the best VA

HE is oranger and blobbier. AP is dimmer and you can almost see the shell itself.
You can do it, but it's way harder than orange vs blue.
>>146389885
>>146388924
Her HE will be just fine if she's accurate.
>she's probably gonna have terrible accuracy
there's not way to know that and no way to infer that. She's like a reverse battlecruiser. Generally smaller guns have better accuracy in this game, so it's just as possible she'll be nice and accurate.
>I'm not sure her armor, even if it's turtleback, is going to hold up against 16 inch guns.
Tirpitz armor does just fine against much more potent 16" guns. They have essentially the same armor. The real issue is that she only has 56k HP.
Her AP is trash though. It'll be great at very close range but it cant do diddly to deck armor. Her high rate of fire, and smaller shell caliber hopefully resulting in few overpens and thus better damage against unarmored targets, should prove interesting, though.

Whats wrong with BBs using HE? It's a great way to raze hotels and other angled douche bag targets.
>>146408719
There's a difference between Iowa/Monty shooting HE at an angled Yam and a New Mexico spamming HE at an Aoba, but I'm sure you knew that and just wanted to repost your somewhat comical damage screen.

>there's not way to know that and no way to infer that. She's like a reverse battlecruiser. Generally smaller guns have better accuracy in this game, so it's just as possible she'll be nice and accurate.
Tirpitz has smaller guns than her counterparts, and yet she has terrible accuracy. She supposedly makes up for this with higher RoF. Scharnhorst is following on the "small caliber, high RoF" trend, so it makes sense for WG to also slap terrible accuracy on her.
>Tirpitz armor does just fine against much more potent 16" guns.
But she's a proper battleship designed to go slug it out with other battleships. Scharnhorst is mostly a commerce raider, more akin to a battlecruiser than a battleship.
