177 DemarticusStone Members 801 posts 2,864 battles Report post #1 Posted August 3, 2016 (edited) I gave you WAY too much crap, and I'm just realizing this after playing World of Tanks for the first time in 6 months, thank you, for not turning this game into a cesspool of horrible things. At least in this game, there's no Premium Ammunition, there's no bull crap Over Penetrations. So I would like to issue an Apology to the Devs of this game, thank you, for this wonderful, wonderful game.

65 [JAV] Patton3rdarmy13 Beta Testers 284 posts 15,809 battles Report post #5 Posted August 3, 2016 Totally agree, I played Tanks again a couple times this week after not playing for a long time and it is a nightmare to play. After a couple of games of Tanks it became clear Warships is much better managed game. Tanks runs better on my computer but the multiple daily game crashes and low fps and high ping of Warships is still better playing Tanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
249 Skramjet Members 733 posts 2,483 battles Report post #6 Posted August 3, 2016 I just played a couple games. I did well, but I just can't stand the people in chat. So much anger, hatred. WOWS might get there one day, but this forum community is so much better than over there. And the devs listen to US. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Less RNG, CV isn't as nearly as bad as artillery, and bottom tier ships are actually able to somewhat fight top tier ships. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In PvP, Armor is already a joke (too much and you get HE's to death, too little and you get Lol-Citadelled by small caliber AP shells) no need to make it even worse than it is. In PvE it works better... as long as bots don't start using premium shells. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Less RNG, CV isn't as nearly as bad as artillery, and bottom tier ships are actually able to somewhat fight top tier ships. I can also confirm this. Being two tiers down in WOT can make you absolutely useless to your team. However in WOWS if have much better chance of being effective. I also think that a stock ship in WOWS is not as bad as a stock tank in WOT. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Indeed, tier differences in general tend to have less of an effect on how potentially useful you may be in battle, which is a welcome change compared to WoT.

4,053 [SYN] MrDeaf Members 16,027 posts 12,803 battles Report post #18 Posted August 4, 2016 premium ammo... just you wait.. The only thing premium ammo ought to do is reduce dispersion. There is historical precedence for this, because the Italian 381mm shells with good quality had excellent shot grouping, while the shoddy shells they produced caused the shells to go all over the place. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't really think so... It was not autopen. You still needed some skill to hit the right spots, it just helped a bit. It's mostly a crutch for bad players like aimbot was in beta for WoWS. Yes, the pros that spam it are deadly with it, but there isn't that many. Or wasn't back when I played (I've only logged in to get my award tanks since WoWS started). I rarely used premium rounds personally and I never spent real money on them. But I have to say the best part was all the tears it caused. There's one reason why it won't be here though. Premium rounds were realistic for tanks. They are not for Warships. If they had it in this game, they'd have to invent the shells. They make up for it by charging up to 4000 doubloons for camo lol. What is it, 400 or something for T10's in WoT? And then it's always on sale... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What is it, 400 or something for T10's in WoT? And then it's always on sale... Tell that to my M103 that was penetrated from all inconceivable angles by an auto-aiming HEAT slinging T-54, or to my WZ-120 whose 220mm sloped turret armor gets penned by a full HEAT T110E5. Oh wait, my favorite part, people slinging full HEAT at my Hellcat, always fun. HEAT's supposed to have an auto-bounce angle, but I've only bounced HEAT at the same angles I bounce AP. The fact that players at Tier 10 think they require 300+ pen to be "good" with Premium rounds is ridiculous. In my WZ-120 I am good with my 254mm of pen on my 122. I can pen a Maus if I take my time to aim and not just yolo-rush around him slinging HEAT with my turret locked on him. In otherwords: Balanced and dynamic gameplay is to negate literally any and all armor. ~Hunter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
