100 RAF_Recovery Beta Testers 367 posts 2,515 battles Report post #1 Posted May 15, 2015 I can honestly say this last patch changed this game totally. First off its seems every shot now bounces, everyone seems to have longer range than me, and the Battleship count is ridiculous. I really enjoyed the first 100 battles before this last patch now not enjoying it at all. Reminds me of WOT too much now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because, Let me tell you people, thoosee were not easy times! I miss being in those 59 wolf packs that used to decimate some matches...lol. Now I can't even bother to play WoT. I'm hoping to enjoy it again once I take a good long break from it but honestly it's already been 7 months and I've played about 10 matches in that time. i play once and just can't be bothered to play another one.

(gets all misty eyed) but yes, many BBs, on the up side this is a great time to be a DD, lots of big slow targets ideal for your torps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

325 Battleship_Unknown Beta Testers 305 posts Report post #14 Posted May 16, 2015 As soon as the "IT'S A NEW TOY!" shine wears off, people are going to start to realize just how outclassed (if not terrible) the U.S. battleships are up through tier 7 (though they are excellent thereafter, which makes it all the more sad. I feel like, rather than balance individual units, WG has elected to try to justify the awesomeness of the later tree by making the early portion horrible), and they'll return to playing cruisers and destroyers. I never expect the carriers to be anything but niche units, however. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

399 Scotty_SE Beta Testers 1,313 posts 12,709 battles Report post #16 Posted May 16, 2015 (edited) Was playing my Cleveland tonight and bounced over *75* AP shots off the side of a Tier 4 BB while barely scratching hime. Sounded like golf balls bouncing off a garbage dumpster. Grrrrrrrr........ Switched to HE and he was trashed in no time. I think they went too far with the AP / HE meta change.

25 EnclaveZ182 Beta Testers 367 posts 401 battles Report post #17 Posted May 16, 2015 I pulled up next to a CV as he started to turn away I dropped torps. I was about 1.8 km away and I did wide spread and I used the lead indicator for the first drop but I know he would turn right so I dropped the second one slightly to the right. Well usually that works and a few hit only this time they all went way behind the CV and he didn't need to turn away he just out ran them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
