224 [MINVY] Capn_Nugget [MINVY] Members 764 posts 7,111 battles Report post #5 Posted January 31, 2020 So we riot when they go overboard, like the original YY nerf. And when they attempt to go minor, incremental change... we RIOT? Got it :) O7. I don't disagree the Russian BB nerf is still a joke. Kremlin's turret traverse is breathtaking. They turn faster than some cruisers turrets do. But maybe this is a sign they will start doing adjustments more frequently but in smaller increments to try not to go overboard again. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think from some people's perspective it is a meaningless nerf that doesn't address any issues with the ship and is just so they can say they "nerfed" it.

1,015 [USA-N] SidTheBlade Members 785 posts 10,599 battles Report post #11 Posted January 31, 2020 (edited) People will not be happy with the Krem nerfed into the ground. They are just complaining, copying the madman Flamu, because they think it is cool. Flamu ought to be ashamed of himself, the way he has led the lemming train of Russian hate against the Krem. He knows, better than anyone, that it is far from being the most dangerous tier X BB. Stop the Russian hate. Flamu must repent of his wickedness and sinful comments. Buff the Krem.

You have to play very passively to let a USN CA or even their CL's gain an advantage. 4 hours ago, Lert said: You've been here long enough to know that in the eyes f the playerbase everything WG does - including nothing - is wrong. Most game developers don't release new game content with <1 Year of playtesting, and by playtesting, I mean professionals whose entire JOB is doing that. They also don't try to integrate content that is 4+ years old with new content without simultaneously reworking the old content. See: TF2 for example *still* rebalances first unlocks from time to time to avoid power creep (which they have done spectacularly; the default equipment is still often some of the best in the game).

I mean, it's different people I think, doing the whining, but still. Then again, I think 90% or more of the calls for nerfs or buffs to ships are just standard MMO-"community" garbage, blathering because someone can't faceroll an enemy using their favorite character class or build or ship or whatever, or because they think they should be able to dominate uncontested with their favorite character class or unit type. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This post of yours is by far less reasonable then what WG is doing. Yelling in all caps Kremlin now has seen 2 consecutive small nerfs. The third small nerf over all. Its far better WG uses a consistent strategy like this then what happened to Henry and YY . At the same time Hindi got 2 medium buffs that combined are huge ( Luetjens + reload boost). The one and only thing that can be complained about here is that there is an inconsistency to the balancing strategy. Its as if different people made the final decisions. IE one guy is running around handing out large nerfs and buffs. Then another is running around changing things in small steps. It seems almost bipolar from the outside. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
