Said this on on Flamu's VT video last week: "Vermont is love. Vermont is life. Still my fave BB. Don't care that it maneuvers like a 3-legged sloth. It slaps harder than a broke pimp."
My favorite thing about this battleship line actually isn't the guns, but the maneuverability. Obviously they're slow as hell, but the turning circle and acceleration on the Vermont and its predecessors make it incredibly easy to dodge torpedoes when compared to, say, the German battleships. I had one memorable game in the Kansas where I was at less than 10 km of three DDs for the entire game and didn't take a single torp.
So a thing that can make vermont more bearable, press z after firing. Seriously though, vermont shells are slow and the reload is worse, but if you watch those shots all cinematic style, take some time to appreciate the view etc then by the time they land and your trip is over, the reload is now at or under 30 seconds. I know it's not ideal, but personally I find it much more relaxing than keeping the ship view and seeing that reload timer.
ok so. 1 I have NEVER seen a double strike in the same salvo, absolutely glorious! 2 I'm really glad to see PQ playing with other guys, at least for me I have the most fun when playing with friends, and I know PQ has been getting very frustrated with the game recently. And maybe, in the future, a potential for division tactics videos?
No one probably noticed but when PQ took out the Conqueror and Gearing, the friendly team lost a Conqueror and a Gearing almost immediately after, spooky
Vermont is still a reliable ship to play, even with its slowness. I see the forced patience as more of a benefit than a detriment. It makes you think and gives you the time to look at the map once in a while while in stealth.
It's honestly a great ship to play if overextending is becoming an issue. Sure, you can still overextend in the Tillman BB's, BUT it takes a hell of a lot longer to do so. lol So, maybe (as you pointed out) the player has time to watch the mini-map and not overextend.
15:20 worse, more range actually decrease accuracy, can you talk more in detail about all of that please, thank you and epic double kill, definitely the turning point of the match!
This ship would have been the end game for battleships 12 18 inch guns the most guns you could fit on a hull of that calibre that would it in terms of firepower
I have gotten vermont, but I do atruggle it with. Part of it is Because my prediction isnt as good as it should be, part of it because the shells are so slow out to longer ranges. But i will get better, i have faith P.S : I really love the hulk in the thumbnail lol. Cheeky reference to the avengers
WGing wants blowouts because the data they have shows people use resources faster, level faster, become more frustrated and more frustrated players spend more $$. If they are serious about making games competitive they would make advancement skill based. Should a 40% WR player with avg xp of 650 and 12K games played be in a T10 ship and an impact ship at that? Only if your goal is to opaquely create blowout matches. Even if they made ship classes skill based it would be a step in the right direction.
While I will continue to watch and enjoy these, i've recently deleted the game. It's just got too gimmicky and gambling-focused - Colossus was the final straw. Going to try something else but haven't decided what yet......
That double kill was insanity
Collateral, beautiful
6:50 for that.
yessir

This was such a great replay. Double kill in one salvo and the bow pen into Immelman for the win. Nice.

vermont + hasley + forius + arm race got 20 sec reload and the most fun ship to play
That double strike was a thing of beauty.
The bet in the battle chat at the end:20$ on Vermont, priceless.
If you listen closely with audio up, you can hear bfk screaming "ZERO DAMAGE" in the background after every salvo landed.
That's the 2nd Double Tap I've ever seen.
Quality indeed!
it was nice to see you cooperate with the cv
The Double Strike Salvo was worth the whole Vid!!!!! effing awesome!!!!
You put the hulk in the background for explaining this Vermont 😂..
My Favorite Battleship! Thank you! =P
That double strike tho!
7:03 sickest double kill I've seen
Awesome video, just wondering if you are planning on playing the pan-American cruiser line? And if it is worth doing the grind to get the tier X.
Potato - serious question. US BB supership is Super Monty or Super Verm?
15:20 worse, more range actually decrease accuracy, can you talk more in detail about all of that please, thank you and epic double kill, definitely the turning point of the match!
oof, that double strike :o
Wow that double ship destruction was splendid, you knew how to aim so well to damage both of them, you must be one of the best wows players
This ship would have been the end game for battleships 12 18 inch guns the most guns you could fit on a hull of that calibre that would it in terms of firepower
brisk is great skill to have in crucial moments. but 90% of time you are either: spotted or not running at max speed to get benefit.
love the great work!
What Camera Settings do you use?
Greetings from Germany!
Need to send this to jingles
ah yes
Vermont, my favorite!
lol That was incredible!
When they work,the guns are nasty but like he said patience is the key,they can one shot any cruiser unfortunate enough to get hit flat broadside
Wow, what a game
I have gotten vermont, but I do atruggle it with. Part of it is Because my prediction isnt as good as it should be, part of it because the shells are so slow out to longer ranges. But i will get better, i have faith
P.S : I really love the hulk in the thumbnail lol. Cheeky reference to the avengers
Shame you weren't running Halsey this game. Buffed concealment on Vermont is glorious.
Are you sure?
Concealment doesn't matter in a CV match. The only thing that matters is the confederate buff
6:56
That was fuckin impressive
Can i ask about your crosshair
I tried many ways but still not find it =((
What is the side ship info pannel and where do i get it?
vermont accelerate really well as BB wtf
Game switched numbers on 7:06
wowa
Now make Kansas work
Bu it never works right?
I call hacks!!! lol
Negative damage!!!
BFK outscored by a CV, that is bannable

Did u copy Flamu with smash ? He also did this same before u ..
People still watch flamu? interesting.
Kidding aside, the Hulk did it first and believe they are both copying him, just sayin'.
How dumb is enemy CV to rush fwd? Impressively dumb. Well done!
Sweet Jesus, PQ and BFK should be banned from playing together...lol
ohio = best
So how many meh games did you have before this one? This game is so boring due to CVs or Subs then if you play a CV or sub it's still boring af
what a crappy throw.....
