2,750 [FOXEH] Kitsunelegend Beta Testers 6,103 posts 1,313 battles Report post #5 Posted October 29, 2017 I'd like to see myself as a pretty decent BB player, and I can tell you, there are games where no matter how good I aim, my shots never connect. Then there are games where my aim is spot on and my dispersion is really good, so I wreck everything. So even though that BB seemed like he couldn't hit the broadside of a barn at 50 meters, theres a chance his dispersion was fighting against him that match, and he just got a lucky salvo near the end. It happens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ya very balanced game you have. You have only played 150 battles. You could play more and learn as you go, discovering new things in the process, and get better. Or, you could jump to a conclusion based on very little experience, say the game sucks, and stomp away in a fit. Whichever. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

278 [VOC] StableGenius Beta Testers 1,130 posts 6,779 battles Report post #8 Posted October 29, 2017 (edited) The battleships class has the biggest guncaliber ingame.. you can't make cruiserarmour that can bounce shots of battleships because then you call it a battleship.. Wait till you get to tier 10 with Yamato against you :) You will rage even more :) If you don't want to learn how to play this game, you should probably stop I agree :) Bye! Oh and seeing you only complaining in the 18 posts you made and harass people, I think we (community) loves to see you go.

197 [SPNRD] Beorn_of_the_NorthernSea Members 767 posts 8,344 battles Report post #11 Posted October 29, 2017 You might want to work with some more experienced players who would have the requisite knowledge to teach you how to counter the BBs. In the scissors/paper/rock of ships: BB>CL CL>DD DD>BB Better luck next time. ~B 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
804 Wowzery Members 4,608 posts Report post #12 Posted October 29, 2017 Battleship beats cruiser, isn't that part of the balance. This player reminds me of certain BBs who rage they can't sink DDs, or DDs who get eliminated by CAs. It takes skill for a CA to beat a BB, a BB to beat a DD and a DD to beat a CA. After 150 games, despite this being an easy game, you've only started learning the intricacies of the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ya very balanced game you have. Dude looking at your stats i would say the issue is not a BB problem but how you play problem. You have a 39% win ratio and only 133 games played in random. I would say you need to look at some videos, read some how to play post and practice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And your conclusion is not that you need to get better, but that the game is broken..... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

105 [VVV] gloom13 Members 341 posts Report post #17 Posted October 29, 2017 (edited) In a lot of the situations the cruiser would have a serious advantage in such a scenario. For example could probably play for caps, use speed and vision to just win without even shooting, making BB cry in frustration yelling in chat about honor and cowards who steal wins... At the end of the game often the key to victory is to simply sail away instead of a suicide charge, it is sooooooo hard hower to persuade team mates to just disingage sail away and win on points, even with only 60 seconds on the clock.

Please don't blame your failures due to lack of knowledge on the game mechanics. It's obvious from your 39.1% win rate that the BB player, no matter how bad, is better at winning the match than you.

Ya very balanced game you have. It is balanced. Cruisers are not designed, nor is it their role, to solo BBs. Cruisers have relatively large citadels and thin armor. What exactly do you think is going to happen if you try and solo a BB? Your whine is no different than a BB player complaining that they can't effectively take on a DD player, or a CV whining that they can't fight when they're out of planes. Every ship has it's pros and cons. Every ship has a role it is supposed to play. If you can't understand this concept then perhaps this game isn't right for you.

12,714 [PSP] Snargfargle [PSP] Members 19,325 posts Report post #22 Posted October 29, 2017 Yes, a battleship can take out a cruiser in one salvo but a good cruiser player is going to be wiggling all over the place and not sailing broadside, which makes this much less likely. Match my Cleveland against a half-health battleship 1v1 and I'll win most every time because I'll burn him to the water before he can fire a third salvo. Torpedo cruisers should consistently win versus half-health battleships too, if the battle starts at short to medium range and the cruiser can close between the battleship's salvoes or hide behind an island. The only problem might be if you are driving something like a Pensacola or a New Orleans that has a slow rate of fire coupled with a lack of torpedoes. The OP has only 150 battles. I didn't start getting even halfway decent at this game until I had over 1000 battles. Something clicked about then and my stats simply shot up. However, if the game is not fun for you then nobody's making you play it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
93 [RNJR] Swift_Scythe Members 282 posts 4,954 battles Report post #23 Posted October 29, 2017 Two scenarios - one cruiser versus one Battleship. 1) Cruiser Team MORE points - DO NOT FIGHT. RUN AND HIDE. Why risk death and your teams lead in points just run the hell away. 2) Cruiser Team LESS points - DO NOT FIGHT. RUN AND CAP - away from the Battleship. Use islands for cover use speed and maneuverability to hide in island shadows. Know how far your ships individual visible detection is and stay that much away frkm the BB at all costs. ALSO DO NOT SHOOT - the BB can kill you as you run like little snot but you are a smart snot. Hopefully you enter a cap stop the points gain and maybe turnover the cap to your team. Maybe even time to turnover a third base just to secure any enemy points gain to zero. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
