Belesarius Posted August 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 So I found a nice mod pack, it has like 20 cross hair choices, some look like they change the perspective, maybe giving you a better view off how the ship is turning? Is that a legal mod? I haven't played much this week really, most of my work week was 10 plus hour days, and it's hard to stay awake let alone play boats. I'm trying tonight though, well l'm in WOT right now playing my Japanese Tiger! Link or die. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeeps_Guns_Tanks Posted August 2, 2015 Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 I just had some dumbfuck in an Atlanta, launch torps when the enemy ships were more than 15 k away, IE, three times the range of his torpedoes, and so close to me in my Sims, I couldn't dodge.... WTF!! And he said it was my fault lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toxn Posted August 2, 2015 Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 Had a similar incident - morons TKing with torps sucks. Whar are people's opinions on carriers btw? I've got all the way up to bogue and my impression so far is that they are fun but a but frustrating to play. Also, torp whoring is OP (because I can't get it right) and shooting down aircraft needs an xp boost (because I'm okay at that). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to reward team game play a bit more, and reward cruisers for sticking around the carriers a bit more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belesarius Posted August 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 Also Carriers are sky-cancer. Naw, I don't really have much of a problem with Carriers. Tho torp-spam and tier imbalanced carrier games are annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxn Posted August 2, 2015 Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 It also weirds me out that my bogue has only biplane fighters on it. I'm pretty sure a ship that comes with radar would not historically been keeping the hangers full of Boeing F4Bs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.E. Watters Posted August 2, 2015 Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 Cruiser AA has been nerfed in the last patch. My 5"/38 DP don't seem to touch anyone anymore. I've even had my floatplane fighter shot down by bombers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure a ship that comes with radar would not historically been keeping the hangers full of Boeing F4Bs... That wasn't as bad as the CBT with the post-WW2 Saipan running biplanes. My proposal has been that CV and CVL need the option of grinding out for higher tier aircraft outside of the hull upgrade path. The way to balance it would be to have the hanger loadout start to decrease once you surpass your ship's tier appropriate aircraft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxn Posted August 2, 2015 Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 Or they could just, you know, reskin the fucking things to something more appropriate. I'd also support nerfs for alt-fired torps if they made the default torp launches a bit less shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belesarius Posted August 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 Managed to torp a Colorado that wasn't paying enough attention. That was satisfying. RobotMinisterofTrueKorea and CrashbotUS 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxn Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 Got Hosho just in time for a nerf to torpedo spam. Now enjoying the benefits of a gunless cruiser which loses its air wing every match. My Bogue, of course, is the plane reaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxn Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 Also got to watch a match where the luckiest Langley in existence sat on its ass the whole match and still managed to take out a DD with its secondaries. DD pilot must have uninstalled right afterwards. Belesarius 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toxn Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 This dude was incompetent, sure. But his luck also shat on him. That stupid Langley sat still the entire time, somehow ate 4 torpedoes without sinking and then sunk the DD when it closed in for salvo no. 2.

Belesarius Posted August 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Slaughtered a New Mexico 1v 1. Finished the game with about 627 hp. I <3 my little machine cannon of doom. CrashbotUS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeeps_Guns_Tanks Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 What did they do to Torpedoes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxn Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Just widened the spread for planes I think. Now alt fire has exactly the same spread as normal. Edit - looks like it was a previous mini-patch. It's just more noticable with the Japanese TBs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrashbotUS Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 Seems like they slowed them down some, but maybe that is just my perception. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxn Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 Played all of two games with Hosho last night (my whole half hour of -actual- free time) but did alright. Low tier uselessness tends to get counteracted by low tier players believing that torpedoes meant to be manfully accepted as is. Having decent speed and turning time (looks accusingly at Langley and Bogue) also makes it much easier to deal with the inevitable DD that slips through the net. My last game saw me losing my air wing and playing tag with a DD for five minutes - dude must have launched 5 or 6 torp salvoes by the end. I survived the match but we lost on points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belesarius Posted August 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 Ok, this one made me giggle. Got into the backfield of a match with my Cleveland. Got the Lexington, which was....

Belesarius Posted August 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 So I decided to go down the dark path. I suck at American DDs but.... Apparently, I don't totally suck with Japanese ones. 2 BBs and a Carrier. OMNOMNOMNOM. My guns didn't fire a shot. CrashbotUS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like them a bit better than the US DDs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
