I had it just about 1 month of play, I had 36k XP on it. All you had to do was know how to play it, and it performed better than the chester. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Pensacola is a great example can be absolutely devastating.... so long as you know how to play it.... that being said the Albany i did have some trouble with.

55 Jerkster Beta Testers 430 posts 1,229 battles Report post #11 Posted June 26, 2015 they took it out to rebalance it. the albany only really played up to par when ships got to around 3 to 4km and tier 3 ships could just simply ignor it. I personaly loved it with about 80k exp with it but but even i wont argue with how bad it was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most likely WG will probably still exercise damage control or let things die out. Either way they will just ride it out, with the forum goers got it early with rest of community that haven't heard yet getting it tomorrow. No harm done and if I was WG I would look at it as a promo advertisement for the event. So they win out regardless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
