  • Colbert is a fun ship, but when you have to take over attacking on Convoy it can get very sweaty and extremely close.

    Convoy just never matched up the dirigible derby game mode, too many poor design choices. One can hope WG learned from the things they did wrong.

      the Colbert's gimmick is the insane DPM, it's one of the rare ships (if not the only one) that can exceed one million AP DPM, yes it's a very fragile ship but she only has one role, that is to farm and she does it very well (I apologize if my English is terrible, it's not my first language)

    @vinzenzgeske8987 2 роки тому

    Apart from the challenge I really don't get why people would play Colbert over Smolensk. Smolensk has more guns, flatter shell arcs (so killing DDs is way easier) and a smoke if things get bad or you *really* wanna bring the pain. It also not too shabby at open-water gunboating unless there's a Mino, an Elbing or other short-fused AP around.
    I absolutely love picking a friendly DD and supporting him in capping. The second the enemy DD is spotted, he will surely see the errors of his way.
    I also get that Smolensk is toxic as fuck which is why I only play it for certain missions (main battery hits with cruisers for example) or try to not use smokes if I can help it. I would love for WG to take away its smoke and find a way to balance it differently. Maybe get the concealement down to low 9 km values or give it better rudder shift.
    Speaking of balancing: Plymouth as attacker in convoy is fucking broken - especially in a platoon with a DD. Yesterday I had a game with Plymouth/Harugumo in a platoon and a CV (not in the same platoon). Game went about as well as one would think.
    I really don't get the whole smoke/radar combination. I shouldn't be suprised as WG sucks at balancing. But that shit is complete madness.

  • @florin5153
    @florin5153 2 роки тому

    This mode is so stupid. Yesterday I was on the defending side for the first time. I was using my Petro and I just sat nose in next to an island with a Shima spotting for me and kept shooting at the incoming ships. The enemy team stood no chance, I wasn't even below half HP when all the enemy ships on my flank were wiped out and I could just run at their convoy.
    Anyways, I love your videos Flamu, please keep ranting about weegee's inability to fix their game :D

    • @JoniWan77
      @JoniWan77 Рік тому

      I respectfully disagree. Attackers might seem to be favored, but only intuitively. Defenders are forced to fight for space, which nobody is able to do anymore in the current state of the game. I had great fun with that mode, since it forces people to engage the enemy and thereby plays completely different. And it is utterly ridiculous to completely destroy attacking Tier 10 BBs in a Bismarck and FdG by simply pushing them out of the map, cause common sense told them to rather protect their own ships than kill the convoi or laugh at a complete flank seperating themselves from their convoi behind an island chain, while you just rush the convoi 3 minutes in. Good times.

    • @siriusczech
      @siriusczech Рік тому

      @@JoniWan77 thats why attackers had it easy. As a defender, you do not have time to get into positions and win fight over the enemy before convoy gets in sight.
      On other hands, this more favoured heavily stupid-dpm ships. Put a Colbert + Gearing onto one flank and he gets 380k as a defender and carry the game with 9 kills (happened). Or just play Sherman, sail into the middle of map and farm down anything in range with brutal speed and accuracy. All tactics go away, some shit you cannot defend against

      @@siriusczech You just need to have balls, play aggressively and escort the convoi, you really do not have to survive that long to make way for your team and convois. But that's something the whole playerbase has collectively unlearned. To be fair, I was only playing in divisions, but it was pretty easy most of the time to defend the convoi with German low-tiered BBs just by pushing the attackers and screwing up their lines. Just because the same tactics of other gamemodes do not work in convois, does not mean there is no tactic you can use. It's at least a breath of fresh air. And even if defending is harder than attacking, so what? It's at least interesting and leads to much more tense situations. I honestly never had more fun with WoWs than in convois. The matchmaking was terrible, though.

    • @siriusczech
      @siriusczech Рік тому +1

      @@JoniWan77 I liked the mode, yes. But even in a division it was heavily teamdependent and shipdependent. Like getting a Kleber as a defender is nice, but actual spotting and torping Shima backed up by radar cruiser and a CV (not a dviv, btw) was all it took to brutalize a whole flank.
      And yes, I did push a ton with GK or Schlieffen, even in other ships like Ohio etc. The thing is - when on ZoneAlpha you have ONE route through the MIDDLE of the map for both conwoys, ways to fuck that up as an attacker are dozens - from submarine spotting through torpedosoup to radar camping and flame farming anything coming closer.
      Problems on multiple maps were teams literally splitting to sides leaving the middle with the actualy conwoy (with known track) unattender or in hand of one or two ships. When all 3 DDs disappear to sides and you stay at least in some vicinity of those ships, only to get suddenly farmed by those shits like Sherman etc. with everyone 7km+ and behind islands (Hotspot, Alpha), ... there is not much you can do tbh. Either all conwoy ships dies instantly due to lack of cover, or you die covering them and then you all lose nevertheless.
      Or a typical random stuff - 4 vs 4 DDs, only to find your 4 dead after 3 minutes after trading 1 (hopefully) in exchange. Ggwp. On EU server in my playing times (eveningg) there was serious lack of objective understanding in my teams many days, the longer the event lasted, the worse it did get in general.
      As a person who loves ranked and abandoned randoms almost completely due to "too much shit still changing", I like special modes like this. However, quality of teams varies a lot
