15:16 if you pause the video when the rounds explode you can see that they hit a really large invisible hitbox (on the island). We should ask the developers to fix this because you could have sunk that enemy; thus the scenery negatively interfered with gameplay experience & player performance.
yep, that hitbox was mildly surprising, doesn't quite match up with the texture. There are a few islands that work like this, I think the centre ones in one of the epicentre maps has similar hidden barriers.
Hi, this is the guy who was skippering that Halland... I just wanted to say that your videos and reviews have been a great resource for me since I started playing around the end of last year. They've been incredibly helpful in trying to figure out what ships are worth my time and how to (somewhat) effectively use them. (In fact, your reviews of the Friesland and Halland are what got me started playing EU DDs and eventually working toward getting that Halland as my first tier-X ship.) So, thank you - and it was an honor to face you in-game (even if I was playing like a n00b). And yeah, firing my guns wasn't the most tactical decision - but I was already low on health, out of repairs kits, and saw a tier-X Russkie cruiser bearing down on me. I figured I was already as good as dead, so might as well go down fighting... (I'm as shocked as anyone that I managed to evade your fire long enough to survive until my team mates could come to my rescue LOL).
Hi Terry! Great review on the Alexander Nevsky! It is going to be a grind just to get that ship! I know we are in different servers however it would be a privilege doing a collab sometime or just to play a tier 10 match. Keep up the good work!
Nevsky looks like a pretty decent ship Damage output is probably on the lower side of T10 cruisers but her fantastic range and accuracy make up for that Armour is not great but with her range you dont need to get uncomfortably close to enemies, she also has high speed for a cruiser so she can get to where she is needed relatively quick I cant wait until the heavy line releases though, im really interested in tallinn and riga, they pretty much look like cheap alternatives to donskoi and moskva if they were too expensive for you
I'd say she's ok. Worcester is stronger on support, and can negate the range advantage with shell arcs and positioning. Personally, for a multirole, I'd probably stick with Hindi. I really need to catch up with the other top tier cruisers - I got the Italian legendary commander (single crate, if you believe it), so Venezia might be interesting, and I'd like to see Zao as well, and check if Henri can convince me of grinding through Algerie.
I can't say about Moskva, haven't played either her or Donskoi. Nevsky is an ok T10 cruiser, excels at range, but too limited gameplay-wise. Might make an interesting division choice (e.g. team with a CV, good AA, and burn stuff down halfway across the map)
ABSOLUTELY!! I would certainly trade those garbage torpedoes, for not having my gun lock broken every time I cycle between my primary and secondary armament. I can’t even tell how many times my Tirpitz cost me precious seconds to kill DDs or anything else for that matter.
@@FunandGameswithTerry i was kinda late to unlock t10 cruisers but now i got moskva, des moins and wooster (wich i dont really play anymore) but the first 2 are just beastmode 🤗 Minotaur and harugumo my next milestones Gona take ages for the paeurope dd .. dont like the line much at t6 now..
I gotta be honest in that i don't really want to play the high tier Russian cruisers because they seem like long range support ships. The light cruisers kinda had that role but at least they were in mid tiers so you could do very funny things. I do like support cruisers but these seem like cruisers where you just lob shells at range with HE that is decent. I much rather prefer the American Light cruisers for the support role. Now if these Russian cruisers could brawl that would interest me. (Although this is probably confirmed because of the new Russian cruisers coming out soon) Oh and btw that thumbnail perfectly suits the Alexander Nevsky in game and historically.
Yep, that's what I had in mind with the thumbnail :) I generally try to think of some more-or-less obscure pun. The sweet spot with the Soviet CLs for me is Shchors / Chappy, just looking at the Donskoi's reload made me want to stop there. Nevsky isn't a terrible ship, but you absolutely have to play at range, due to the dreadful armour. Which is really a shame, because these 180s with AP are absolutely brutal at close range (I got double citadels on an Iowa during a bot test game) - it's just that you can't often use them like that. The range is exceptional for a cruiser, and she is very fast, so it's all about finding positions where you can spam HE while not being an inviting target. But that's about it, unfortunately - making carrying moves in this is quite difficult, and the single radar isn't a great amount of DD deterrent.
Hindenburg can delete many things :) But yeah, it's an average ship with a relatively narrow role imo. Interesting in its own right, but not something I'd play frequently at T10.

it happens to me too :/

You’re right
Ye there are lots of bugs in the game after update 4.2

I love the dispersion on the front main guns when you were chasing that Halland at the end of Match #2
I wish I had gotten him still :) But yes, she can be very precise, and the AP actually hits pretty hard at close range as well.
26:30 and 27:28 that was me , player name "yavi", nice to play with you dude
gg, sorry we couldn't carry :)
Seems like a ship that is a super donskoi that has unfortunate turret placement that limits its power.
Great video!
That ship was actually on the other game called naval creed warships

I’m just wondering but the less armor you have the harder it is for a battle ship to citadel you right?
Now that you've finished this review... Moskva pls. I grinded so hard for this ship that I've put a screen burn in my phone lol
I think it's just a watered down smolensk without smoke
kinda yea
I didn't think Nevsky was a good replacement for Moskva. But I have not reached there, so I didn't really know until this vid.
Are you going to do a review on Stratabourg?
Also Le Terrible?
Strasbourg review will be probably out next Monday. Le Terrible definitely needs to be reviewed as well at some point.
How do you get the ones out of the crates
You mean for review? I get them on my press account when they're about to release, I don't need to open crates
@@FunandGameswithTerry your so lucky
wait is moskva now a premiem ship i didnt played game for like 2 months so dont look at me
Please a video on moskava
Yep, I'll get to that - probably not next week, but soon :)
This vs Moskva, which is better? Did Wargaming just shortchange us?
I can't say about Moskva, haven't played either her or Donskoi. Nevsky is an ok T10 cruiser, excels at range, but too limited gameplay-wise. Might make an interesting division choice (e.g. team with a CV, good AA, and burn stuff down halfway across the map)
I just realized that other than torpedoes the Bismark is better in almost every way to the tirpitz
ABSOLUTELY!! I would certainly trade those garbage torpedoes, for not having my gun lock broken every time I cycle between my primary and secondary armament.
I can’t even tell how many times my Tirpitz cost me precious seconds to kill DDs or anything else for that matter.
Will you do an updated review on moskva? Or compare before and after the changes
I haven't reviewed Moskva yet, but I'll certainly be comparing her to Nevsky when I do.
❤️
Can’t wait for the new German carrier to come out!
There is a new German Carrier?
@@christopherdavy2152 yes look it’s from a cc ua-cam.com/video/fSQfmkJc5b0/v-deo.html
RaPltoR always has the intel before everyone else :)
@@FunandGameswithTerry indeed
When is the new line going to appear ? (The Russian heavy cruiser line)
later this month
i think next week
I’m waiting for the Dutch cruisers
don't know exactly, but I don't have them in Press yet, so probably not next week?
I hope it will appear soon, already got enough Exp to buy the tier 8
so my friend grinded to moskva, and still has dm donskoi, he is wondering if he should grind to nevsky and if its worth it or not. what do u think?
If they like Donskoi, Nevsky is the logical progression imo - she's an improved Donskoi with better range & AA at tier 10.
Lexington Vs Shokaku
Personally I love playing the montana and would really like to get the Ohio
Ok
Ok
Personally, Nevsky is just an uptiered Ochakov.
Faced one in moskva, citadel this thing at 11km 🤣 looks like donskoi lil tweaked for t10
Yep, that's pretty much what she is - T10 Donskoi. Huge range, good AA, pure support ship. Fast, too. But squishy. I'll stick with Hindi :)
@@FunandGameswithTerry i was kinda late to unlock t10 cruisers but now i got moskva, des moins and wooster (wich i dont really play anymore) but the first 2 are just beastmode 🤗
Minotaur and harugumo my next milestones
Gona take ages for the paeurope dd .. dont like the line much at t6 now..

@@FunandGameswithTerry oi Terry want to one v one me I will be on my Vermont you on this ship
eh i dont rly like it, my hindenburg can delete its hp just as fast as it does with a smolensk, but the guns are nowhere near as good :/
