498 [JOLLY] Bl4ckBaron Alpha Tester 579 posts 6,287 battles Report post #1 Posted August 3, 2015 (edited) Hello all, Some news about the upcoming patch 0.4.1 found in RU forums: 1. Furukata will be buffed (Turret rotation speed, dispersion, rudder shift time and torpedos); 2. Yubari will be buffed. 3. Extra information about ship data will be displayed in-port; 4. Improved fighters gameplay (reduce excessive differences between fighters combat effectiveness tier by tier); 5. The effects of smoke screen will be improved from the perspective of the smoke screen creator; 6. BB's dispersion at short ranges (< 5 km) will be decreased (improved); 7. MM balance (same number of CV's and similar of other ships classes and tiers) will be improved; 8. Map edge surfing penalty (not sure exactly what it seems the ships will stop or at least dramatically reduce speed when hitting map edges); 9. US DD's will be buffed (some torpedo love from what I understand, maybe range and damage); 10. Ships visibility re-calculation. Ships without observation superstructures/pagoda masts will have visibility slighlty reduced; 11. Player ladder system/personal rating introduction.

Map edge surfing penalty (not sure exactly what); 9. US DD's will be buffed (some torpedo love from what I understand, maybe range and damage). More like <4-4.5km Hitting the map edge will be similar to hitting terrain. Instant stop. AFAIK, USN DDs will get a smoke buff, and some AA-related ability.

1,626 [HINON] The_GoDDfather Beta Testers 4,982 posts 6,529 battles Report post #22 Posted August 3, 2015 I hope they don't buff USN DDs too much. The only way USN DDs would be too OP is if they were never spotted. Smoke doesn't stay forever, it got over nerfed due to baBBies crying about how they couldn't see through our smoke. Which they could shoot at the white column of smoke that shows up in the cloud. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

431 Razzopper In AlfaTesters 957 posts 3,049 battles Report post #24 Posted August 3, 2015 More like <4-4.5km Hitting the map edge will be similar to hitting terrain. Instant stop. AFAIK, USN DDs will get a smoke buff, and some AA-related ability. Buffing the DD smoke back up is badly needed. The idea of an AA perk over a buff to torpedoes for US DDs makes a lot of sense in that it keeps them unique from the IJN but also has some historical basis looking back at DD pickets (kamikaze punching bags) from the late Pacific war.

Or XP for scouting...or or or. I hope and pray it's some of these. hopefully improving USN fighters while nerfing IJN fighters I hope you meant improve IJN FT. US FT are good enough already unless you fight a higher tier US CV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
