One of the secondary goals is to take out the battleship Fury, but the ship is named Furi.

Waiting for a match in Arms Race. Perhaps there is no limit on PTS, but waiting longer than the max time specified.

On the mention of CVs, it's great having Defensive AA with an AA build and watching as I do some good damage on planes. I don't shred through them like the Cruisers can, but I'm sure some CVs don't get why their planes disappear around a destroyer.

Thanks and you're welcome! I'm just starting to really post on the forums, so I'll try to post a bit more.

It takes practice to do a good manual job. A good way to figure out how far ahead to drop them is to look at the automatic drop. I try to get my aiming box to line up so the torps are in the water just as the ship enters the box. That tends to work well for most ships, but I do drop ahead more if the ship is faster. And since you're on the IJN line, you can do cross-drops so you can almost guarantee you'll get some hits. Yes, at T6, you can do manual drops which helps quite a bit. Until then, you just have to do what you can.

Against other DDs, the Kidd's advantage is the heal. I've held quite a few caps against one or two DDs because I could tank the shots knowing I could recover a decent amount of that.

I keep thinking it would be so much fun to go in with a carrier since I play them. Hell, it would be interesting for a clan to have an option to go in with a CV or a BB. Then I realize it's a 7v7 match, with a change on a good chunk of Cruisers... and how much of a difference there is between a bad CV, a good CV and a great CV. That could be frustrating.

I don't get negative comments often anymore, a decent part of that is because I've gotten better. As a US CV player, I've recognized that I have to play defensive and spend more time spotting for the team then trying to attack (but attacking on solo targets). Every now and then, I get someone complain, someone who moved away from the pack in someway and was singled out. Either that, or the team is just being wiped out or I'm completely out-maneuvered by the other CV and there just isn't anything I can do. Then I just shrug it off. I get more annoyed at doing a ton of spotting/recon for the team and the team not fully taking advantage.

It's a cool idea and sounds like a version I would enjoy playing. The main problem is see is it would take the issue of a playstyle differences of CV vs other ships and make it larger. I would be to trying it out, but I guess we'll have to wait and see what the rework brings.

A mix of Operations with economy flags and playing my Kidd in Co-op (it's generally quick and easy). DDs are great in Co-op because I charge in, hide in smoke right outside of a cap (or where a cap would be), take out a DD or two and then charge in an torp the BBs within 3km or Cruisers if there aren't any BBs. I average 3 kills doing this per co-op match.

I don't have a problem with the radar meta as a Destroyer player. It's like what Zoup says, check the lineup to see how many ships have radar (I've learned a lot of the ships by talking with friends that way), taking an educated guess on the risk of charging the cap vs. skirting for spotting and planning an escape route in case that radar does pop-up. Understanding the ranges of the ships and judging on timing allows me to be mostly safe in any DD. I don't play the Kidd too often in Random as I've been focusing on Operations, Co-op (for some easy matches) or my T9 ships to work on T10. When I do have the Kidd in Random, I rely a lot on the Repair Party to last as long as possible and use my torps mostly to bluff bigger ships or make them turn around. If I hit, great.

World of Warships Anniversary Overall, some good incentives to work towards. The collection has some good stuff and the anniversary arsenal additions are also nice! I'm looking forward to the space commanders. The only negative feedback is I'm not into the fan service items. Like Dasha as a commander and the provocative patches. I get the understanding of having them in, fan service, but they are items I have any interest in having around. At least with the commanders, I don't have to get them. With the patches, it would be nice to have an option to toggle those on or off. I get having those as well since stuff like that was/is common in the military, but I'm sure I'm not the only one that would be uncomfortable seeing them. Ranked Battles Tier 10 again? I haven't been able to play that tier in Ranked yet since I don't have one, but I saw quite a few complaints about having it last season, and Rank 10 being locked in. I can't provide much feedback on it more than that, but it would be nice to be able to play more of Ranked past Rank 10. French Cruisers First time playing them. Seeing that the reloads were downgraded for Tier 8 and 9 to adjust for balance on the module, that hurts the game play. When I used the module, I was able to get 3 salvos out during the duration (first salvo, activate, two more). With how much of a cool down the reloads are with 8+9, that's a decent change in DPM for those ships. Yes, it's nice having the burst damage, but not sure if that's enough of a trade-off to grind to Tier 10.
