Pretty evenly split; for all that's worth with so many present. Ik its kind of evenly distributed. But leaves about no working space for those DDs. Just imagine a battle in which you are a BB and there are 10 DDs per side. We usually see complains on 2 CVs or 4 DDs. Imagine this, absolute lack of fun for those DD players. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And do not even get into the spotting mechanics that border on NES era solutions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember a year+ ago voicing my worries on the forum that a Tier VII DD had a chance of facing up to 11 radar ships within its MM range and 42 Hydro ships. That was back then! I actually think the addition of radar/hydro were good things for the game - but WGs inability to properly balance and MM the gimmicks they introduce is evident. IMO it is what leads to more and more of the lopsided/steamroll matches we see. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Short of making radar a solo slot on ever ship that has it, altering MM would be a nightmare. You have a BB with it and DDs with it, too! And if they made it 1:1 radar, good luck getting matches at a reasonable rate in Mo or a radar DD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd take fighting CVs any day over that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(Still on Budyonny after 3+ years.) I once asked in a match if the Al Nevsky had Radar in chat and the answer I got was yes. I was also Radar'ed by her at one point in said match. Also, you could always just look at her consumable options in the tech tree. I'm fairly certain that became a thing, along with looking at her equipment costs and options, after the last update.
