Meh.

He's still just exploiting that people are fucking stupid and can't read a minimap. Send anyone down the middle with coordinated division play and chances are you'll do pretty well. It still relies on the opposing team giving up the flanks at some point or another and not having your team collapse into a steaming pile of trash. It's not difficult at all to counter this but people continue to throw themselves away because they're desperate to do damage against an opponent who has cornered himself/themselves.

These videos continue to give hope to dumbasses who think going down the middle on two brothers is the best option. This map is a fucking chore because of these videos propagating a stupid move.

100% agree with you business, the enemy team played like idiots and he completely got away with it.

Well, I still think it was an amazing job, stupid move or not.
 
Finally got a win on the "Me So Asian" Fletcher, after lik 5 disappointing defeats.

The enemy DDs were pretty much like this.

I haven’t had any monster games in it yet, but the Alsace is a nice, comfortable ship to play. You have to buy all the upgrades though cause it sucks as a A hull bone stock.

The guns are a bit scatterish, but with 12 of them it hits pretty hard.

The only thing I don’t love are the disappearing little blue dot 308’s. The look like Bismark bullets.
 
Alsace and Republique suck ass to play. Overpens and huge dispersion for days and then you get a few crazy good salvos that make you think "oh this is good, I can work with this" and you don't see another good salvo for the rest of the night. They're long range HE shitters, especially the Republique, and they don't get really dangerous with AP until you start closing in real close---where everything is equally dangerous, if not moreso.

I had one scenario with the Republique where I had to run for a good 7-8 minutes because the ships I was going to support died, horribly, and that flank is exactly where the bulk of the enemy team went. Naturally, my team's battleships did dick all and ran from the start including a Richelieu that literally never hit W and was reversing from spawn the entire match. Anyhow, I got chased down by a Zao, Missouri and Montana. I magically dev strike the Zao after a dozen salvos against him, flipped a bitch against the Missouri who, along with the Montana, was focusing the Richelieu down so I ended up in a drive-by against the Missouri where I multi-citadeled him into a detonation for a dev strike. I was prepping to take down the enemy Montana from full health and got him under 10k hp remaining after 30k, 15k, 20k, 20k salvos in less than a minute when I finally died. The Republique could be a good brawler but the crazy fast 21.1s reload before AR is totally offset by the turret arrangement and what that means to showing your side.

Depending on how long the Graf Zeppy survives there are as many as 185 planes to shoot down in Hermes.

Damn dude, I'm really liking the Alsace, found it so much more playable than the Rich. Dispersion is awesome and I'm getting plenty of cits and pens on Cruisers :) I did fit it for secondaries though, so no dispersion module, maybe it has a negative impact like on some other ships.
 
Wow. POS matchmaking in WoWs. It's no wonder this game felt like an utter bloodbath from the second it went live.

More lopsided bullshit. I'm sorry I ever discovered this utility.

I'm pretty sure the only way to reach parity is through divisions. The matchmaker is dedicated to discrepancies but there shouldn't be a 10, 12 or, in one case that I had, a 16% difference between teams. And yes, even with my 71% and 8k+ battles our team had a 44% to 60% disadvantage due to the enemy team being made up of three three man divs to my team's one two man div.
 
I have that as well, but I almost never open it (usually only for games with a cv). It's just kind of depressing.
 
I still say the Kamakazi-R is the best damn little ship in the game.

yeah that's pretty much my goto ship when a mission calls for torp hits. So many bb's at that tier just sail in straight lines, and even if your torps miss, by the time he sees them, you basically are putting another set in the water with that 42 second reload.

yeah kinda sad that even after 2 years they still haven't fixed the matchmaker.. i mean all they have to do is make sure that 1 group is matched against another group so that it's equal AND/OR separate solo and group queues then if a group(s) has been in queue for 5-8 minutes fill in the extra slots with solo players.
 
Finally played the Mino in link 6 months. Forgot why I liked this ship.

The sad part is that the N. Carolina was afk. But I murdered the shit out of that Neptune, because you always give full broadside at 9 km when fighting a Mino. Nomnomnom cits. Kinda sad I didnt get a double strike on the charles and Iowa, or the N. Carolina and the Neptune.

JC 593 hits :)

And how the hell did you get 19000+ hi in an Alcatel with only 68 hits ?

I just unlocked the Republik and while it’s a blast to play with it’s 21 sec reload time, i USF haven’t been able to make shit as far as XP or silver in it. It’s a bank account drainer.

Well, 5 Cits right off the bat is 55k, a lot of pens and secondary fires also add up, I erased a Neptune at point blank range with almost all pens and 1 cit :) .

I've put in 2 games into the Repubic, I really like it so far, it's very versatile and the guns, while not yamato pen, do hit hard and have decent accuracy, the 21 second reload, and even lower with adrenaline rush, are fun :)

I just can't get enough of this little ship.

Unfortunately my full spread of torps was just about to wax their last ship. Literally 10 feet away, and some asshole stole my gd Kraken. He saw they were gonna hit and he outright stole my fucking Kraken.

People can be assholes LOL

Wow, the Republic HAS to have something wrong with it.

It is an utter Financial black hole. Even a good game doesn’t generate spit for XP.

Silver awards suck too.

I thought I had what was a pretty good game. The XP? 893 !!!

For sale: lightly used Battleship. Burns Silver. As is.

And I know someone can show me a game with awesome numbers, especially in this crowd, but overall?

Fuck this ship.

It does not print nearly as many credits as other BBs do at T10. I agree, I've had several 130-140k games with 300-350k silver.

Mine has a for sale sign on it. the next time I need silver for a purchase, it's outta here.

While it doesn't have the carnival-fun reload of the Republic, the Alcase is superior in every other way.
 
To be honest I haven't bother with the last three lines released.

USN CA/CL line split might interest me.
 
I'm almost of the mind of picking the best DD, CG and BB for each tear for each nation and doing away with the rest. My carousel is a fucking nightmare, and I know there people that have 10 times the ships i do. i have something like 40 empty ports. Of course they won't let you sell THOSE back in the inventory :( And dozens of useless captains.

You could always just remove the captains and filter for captains only. Selling ships doesn't give good money and chances are WG will buff them eventually.

i think the last line i grinded was british cruisers, the others didn't really interest me.. if they do the CA/CL split for USN i may grind that til MM pisses me off again.
