279 [REEF] FlashTX Beta Testers 914 posts 13,236 battles Report post #1 Posted November 3, 2016 Okay, we Beta testers have been very patient, can you PLEASE take some time and add some type of AA guns to the Arkansas BETA. Of course, we would prefer, the 1925 configuration but if you won't do that, give us some men on deck shooting at the planes! Machine gun, sub-machine gun, rifle, pistol, potato gun or slingshot, just something to shoot at the enemy planes! It's just not right that they can attack a Battleship and not even worry about spit-wads much less true AA fire being shot at them! Thank you very much! Love the game, keep up the good work! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Love the game, keep up the good work! not gonna happen I'm afraid. WG likes how the Arkansas Beta performs without AA. I think it very unlikely that they will ever give her AA guns.

The good thing is most CVs at that level did not figure out the AA rating on this ship is 0. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The good thing is most CVs at that level did not figure out the AA rating on this ship is 0. You are correct many CV captains do not realize we are defenseless and the further away we get from Beta testing the fewer it becomes at that level. However, I really enjoy running my BETA and I would like some AA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean it basically outclasses every battleship in it's tier (and a few above it) including it's sister ship, due to that fact. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1,848 [ARRGG] CLUCH_CARGO [ARRGG] Members 5,770 posts Report post #10 Posted November 6, 2016 Give the option to the Beta testers but Give that same option of what other ships don't have. British ships get HE Cleveland gets torps pepsicola get Battleship Armor ECTERA EXCETRA. WG Makes the rules if at anytime you don't like that the Exit Game Button Works Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
279 [REEF] FlashTX Beta Testers 914 posts 13,236 battles Report post #11 Posted November 6, 2016 (edited) We got 6 upgrade slots instead of AA. I'll take that. YOU PEOPLE NEED TO WAKE UP!!!!!! DON"T ASK FOR A BUFF!!!!! Really!!! YOU WILL ACCEPT NO AA!!! Let me teach you all something about fighting and battle. If some is good, more is better and too much is just enough!!!!! Remember that! You always want more, more armor, more guns, more speed, more speed of loading, more rapid turret rotation, more AA guns, more range, more, more, MORE!!! That's when you will finally get what you want, TOO MUCH and that is JUST ENOUGH!!!!! Edited November 6, 2016 by FlashTX1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
818 [VVV] Lord_Magus Members 3,248 posts 5,521 battles Report post #12 Posted November 7, 2016 Sure, give Arkansas Beta some AA. I suggest a single .30 Hotchkiss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
279 [REEF] FlashTX Beta Testers 914 posts 13,236 battles Report post #13 Posted November 8, 2016 Just had a perfect example of why the BETA needs AA! Game comes down to my team: BB (Me), DD and CV, enemy team: BB, 2 CL's, 2 CV's. So, I tell the DD to go after the CV's and I would take care of rest. I kill their two CL's and they get our DD. Now I'm trying to get their BB but their CV's are concentrating on me. They can take their sweet time lining up the Torp drops because no AA fire to shoot them down!!!! So, I'm shooting what I can while cutting circles trying to avoid the Torps while the Torp planes circle me! Needless to say, I was sunk eventually, NO AA made me a sitting duck, with no hope!!! Give us AAA on the BETA PLEASE!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
