IJN line

[scotty_geturown]

I think we are being treated like mushrooms, no info at all about the changes to the IJN dd- line, 

Compensation for nerfs to ships 

Captains on ships.

Camo

Captains skills

Some of these might require dublooms to change things about .

If you have the Shima does that mean all new ships are researched at least ?

Hopefully WG will tell us something soon .

[manavdharma]

Huh?

 

[Crucis]

Come on, Scotty!  A little more context please.  What ship type are you talking about?  DD's, perhaps? (Since you do mention the Shimmy, and the DD line has an upcoming split, etc.)

Think this topic was discussed in full lenght in a few posts.

Ah, gotcha. Thanks for explaining.

Seriously, have you no idea about the complete re-work of the IJN DD line and the split with a new Tier 5 -8 IJN DD sub-line?

All good questions and it's a bit disappointing that WG has not provided any additional specifics thus far, meanwhile players are trying to grind through the IJN DD tech tree and don't have good information to make decisions about what will happen.

[Lert]

Be patient. Information will be made available before the change happens.

 

If earlier tier reworks made by WG are any indication:

 

- Any tiers that you unlocked will remain unlocked

- Any ships purchased will remain purchased

- Any owned ships downtiered will remain in your port in their downtiered form, and you'll get a free port slot with the replacement ship in it

- Any trained crew will remain at the tier they are

- XP will remain at the tier it was earned at

- You're not going to lose progress

 

I don't know what will happen with camo.

Of course I do.  But that's no excuse for writing a post without any context and assuming that everyone knows about the IJN DD line rework.  It's always better to be a little more terse and provide the necessary context than to make unwarranted assumptions, particularly when the necessary context required all of 2 little letters, D and D.

It would be nice if we got to reskill our captains as well. Right now i have torpedo acceleration on my mutsiki. When the changes happen, I might want to rethink that skill.

Thank you for contacting Wargaming Support.

We can understand that you feel worried about the changes that are scheduled to hit your ship. With it being moved down two tiers, there are likely to be a lot of changes, and there is no guarantee that any performance it may have had may remain.

To answer your question, upgrades retained when the changes are made refer to the modules you have researched for your ship. Case in point: if you have unlocked all of the modules of your ship prior to the change, you will have all of those same modules unlocked once the change to the tech tree goes live.

 

However, please bear in mind that numbers may not remain the same as they will likely be tweaked so that play within the tier remains fair.;  The premium camo will remain.  Just keep your eyes open to new developments on the website for the mean time. The upcoming changes will probably take effect by next month or sooner.

Now this is a thoughtfully cogent and terse defense of nitpicking!

I'm so sick and tired of people who defend not taking responsibility for one's mistakes and harassing others for making note of them.  The OP did, and he quickly fixed his little error, so good on him.   But the rest of you, shame on you.  Set a higher standard, and try to live up to it, rather than accepting lower standards and blaming others for seeking to be better and help others do it as well.

wait....

 

So is that a way to get port slots?

Say i have the entire line in my port, do the new ships come with free slots?

What about the new tier 9 DD ship?  Will it lead into the Shimakaze?  Or will it just dead-end?

[Patton5150]

I doubt there will be free slots/ships given.  WoT did that in the beginning but they moved away from that.

Yes

The way WG worded the changes makes me think that only the ships that change are the one you don't have to research again or buy at the tier they were moved to. No replacement or compensation for time and effort put in researching above. (I'm making an assumption here that upgraded doesn't mean researched.)

 

"If you own and already upgraded any of the ships we're changing, you won't need to upgrade them again."

 

There's no mention of adding ships at tiers we've already researched, bought and upgraded. I haven't researched or bought the Kagero yet just because of this reason. Why buy a tier 9 if it's going to drop a tier and I won't get compensated for the change? Not to mention my Fubuki dropping to tier 6 and whats going to replace it at tier 8? Something or nothing? This is the info I would like to know so I can plan what I am going to do. If there is no compensation for lost tiers and I don't get a tier 7 or 8 to replace the ones that got knocked down then I'm going to drop the IJN DD line and carry on with the RU line. It's a lot of time and effort wasted if this turns out like this. This is probably the worst scenario that could likely happen though I'm hoping it doesn't and WG cares for it's user base enough not to screw us over. So a little clarification would be nice. Will the Yugumo replace my Kagero if I buy it? Will the Kagero replace my Fubuki if I don't?

You. You sir, are awesome for providing us the answer to OP's (and everyone else's) question. That, with a decent amount of detail from a somewhat reliable source. All without any sass or troll-bait. Upvote

He's talking about the new IJN DD nerfs which will change the IJN DD completely

 

Oh please, tier for tier, the changes are a net buff.
