The alarm for island collision is driving me crazy...the update changed the range on it...it needs to alarm as it does but only long enough to give you a heads up..not keep alarming after the game ends...
Couldn't agree more, just literally had 4 dd's per team and 2 of them firing wall after wall of torps at me, stood no chance particularly when I had nothing to aim back at! I just hope the developers are listening to you!
WarGaming's entire console development team needs a new direction. Tanks was good for a lotta years, then last year they began the suicide of the console game. 12 months later and it is unplayable. If Ships doesn't change their current trajectory, it will be the exact same thing here. Folks all laugh and joke about Weimar, but for anyone that has played Wargaming games for 3+ years understands just how fast power creep can cancer a game. It feels like we are at the tipping point in ships.
Glad someone else sees this. I played tanks on console from beta up until they console they completely changed it and turned it to garbage. They were already going in a bad direction with their greed and balancing and then they drove the final nail with the new interface and hud and all that stuff. I agree ships will head that way as well if they aren’t careful
Bullshit. Although the game isn't a simulation in the strictest sense, it is strongly rooted in real world performance. DD have very thin hulls, we're talking 10-20mm of plating. The USN 16"/50 guns was designed to penetrate something like two feet of armor plate at 10k yards. What do you think is going to happen when it hits 15mm of hull plating on a ship 40' wide? It leaves a 16" hole in both sides. The fuses won't even initiate until they strike water on the far side of the ship. This is exactly what happened at Samar with Japanese capital ships firing AP at USN DDs and DEs. They didn't inflict fatal damage on them until they switched to HE shells.
@@davefinfrock3324 Most battleship grade AP shells are designed to defeat about up to their own armor belt at a particular range. In Iowa's case, about 12 inches or so. As for what happens against a lightly armored destroyer, as with most things, it all depends on where the shell hits. Hit to the bow perpendicular to the hull will likely pass through with relatively little damage. However, a destroyer taking even a single 16in ap round straight on in a relatively flat trajectory from essentially point blank, parallel to the hull, would smash everything in that shell's path until it detonated inside the ship, probably somewhere around midships, which would be devastating to the unfortunate destroyer. It could even blow her sides out. In my experience this isn't reflected in the actual game as the AP damage seems to be the same regardless of direction against DD's. When I'm a BB and I know for sure I'm being chased by a destroyer I switch to HE if possible and even then it usually takes at least two salvos or something like three to six shells to sink a DD from full health, depending on the ship. I was the last man standing and had two destroyers chasing me across the map in Texas. The DD's seemed either really overconfident or where noobs as they kept showing me their broadsides. It took over 5 minutes of wild maneuvering and shooting HE rounds for me to take them both down. The last one got me shortly after due to flooding.
When i saw the map i was like "no way its the game we talked about in your Mogami video !" But then i remembered there was no Yamato, guess you had more luck with your teamates after xD That thumbnail is a "oof" certified tho
Couldn't agree more... I've salted out of many a match saying "What's the point of playing a BB these days?!" That's usually after being burned down by a fire spammer who I can't shoot back at and focuses me to death. For it to be fair BBs need a counter to being spammed over islands. Then they release the Weimar...
I’ve been playing this game since day one, I even have 2 founders edition ships, however recently I have found myself less and less willing to play the game due to the horrible HE meta that’s getting worse and worse by each update. In real life there is zero percent chance that a 6 inch armed cruiser can take on a battleship like Bismarck, Iowa, Alabama, etc but in this game all you have to do is stay at max range and turn every time the battleship shoots at you and just keep setting fires and the cruiser WILL win that engagement one on one 80 percent of the time. I am primarily a battleship player that used to play for multiple hours a day, but now I just find myself logging on to due my bureau challenge ships for about 45 mins and logging off because at the end of it I don’t want to play anymore games after that due to it exhausting me. And with the recent edition of Weimar it’s only exemplified this issue, and I learn yesterday that the new campaign ship will be the Mainz, this is only gonna make things worse I don’t understand what they think. Aircraft carriers are another thing, they don’t belong in this game and I don’t care what you say. They need to make the next 3 or 4 campaign rewards battleships, we cannot have more ochakovs sitting at 19km (which out ranges most battleships by the way) burning the entire map, if the game keeps heading in this direction I might finally throw in the towel after the Christmas update if it gets worse. Also I’m not sure of their reluctance to add cruisers to legendary tier like Des Moines, they say DM will be overpowered while kleber and shimakaze run absolutely rampant in legendary tier games, they need a counter quick because obviously only Alaska is not cutting it.
I agree with you each new update adds another HE spammer which is literally able to shoot across the entire map while the battleships don’t have the range to shoot them.
I'll completely agree with everything you've said in this video about DDs and CCs, it's getting beyond ridiculous now. How are BBs mains ment to counter torp spamming DDs and HE spamming CCs? What's worse is the fact the is most if not all the CCs can burn you down at maximum range and easily dodge your shots while some sneaky ass DD just slips in undetected dumps their torps and scuttles off without you even seeing them! This is one of the main reasons I've taken a break from the game for over a month and only recently came back to try and get a few videos done, I'll admit I'm not the best player in the world but I can hold my own upto tier 7 and Legendary tier. But WG need to bring the balance back and wind in the DDs and the fire starting chance on CCs as it's bloody ridiculous! If they don't we are going to see a mass exodus of the player base and likely CC such as yourself. This needs addressing sooner rather than later. Also I'll add this one thing I've noticed in the community as a whole is the whole "git gud" mentality it's nothing to do with getting good it's the fact the game needs balance and in its current state sadly it really isn't balanced at all. Maybe the introduction on the new British CVs might actually tip the scales but I can't see that happening sadly.
I think the BB spotter plane's should be able to spot DD when in flight about 7 km to 8 km and give BB. Should have more damage control to be able to put out fire's that would balance the game out
Precisely the reason I went to cruisers and destroyers because it's like it is a crime to be in a battleship. So I was like I'll become the very thing that I hate HE spamming and sneaky invisible destroyer torp kills. *Edit:* It's funny too when you think about it because battleships can shoot more rounds less than 30 seconds but everything else in this game is constantly hitting you while your guns are reloading and secondaries can't even hit jack all on a single target.
Wargaming needs to implement manual controlled secondaries for Battleships on Legends,like they have done on their mobile version- Blitz. Battleships would be able to cycle from main battery to secondary battery, while main battery is waiting to reload , you aim and fire the secondaries - wait for secondaries to reload or cycle back to main battery. This would allow battleships to help push. Wargaming, we need manual controlled secondaries on battleships.
I agree completely with you man the amount of fire these days and destroyers is just crazy i played for 2 hours lastnight. Was not a match were i didnt have 2 fires or torpedoes hitting me i switched to fornight i was so fed up with it a clevland frezland and somethings else burnded me down in 2 mins 70,000 hp gone nothing i could do
I’m really hoping for some big balance changes in the next update coming in a few weeks. The balance between ship classes is extremely poor and frustrating to experience.
Agreed I’ve been playing since basically launch I went he spam cruisers I’m like to easy to dd again to easy then by far the hardest to play is battleships nowadays they’re punishing battleships players so now I run heavy radar cruisers to punish people either lobbing 9k undetected ships but then you run into the same issues I don’t run kite unless necessary. Like most. But it’s redic. About to drop the game myself it’s getting very silly
I absolutely love this video everything you said is exactly true. And after playing this game for over a year and dumping money into it. Just to have all this crap happen all the time I realized this game is a waste of my time and energy and I don't even turn it on anymore.
In my opinion @Spartan Elite43, I believe they should limit the destroyers to 2 per team in a match and tbey should nerf the HE fire chance of cruisers by a decent margin since it seems like every time they shoot HE at me they get a fire every salvo. I also wish they would separate tier 7 and legendary tier from each other in matchmaking because let's be real legendary tier is way too much of a jump from tier 7 and tier 7 bbs can't really do anything against the legendary bbs or dds. I still have fun sometimes in thus game but not as much as I did when I first installed the game 2 years ago.
I honestly think Carriers are a bigger issue than DD’s, a persistent carrier can wreck anyone’s day no matter if you’re in a Battleship, Cruiser or Destroyer.
Being a CC main aint all rainbows and sunshine either. I'm not big on HE spammers so play the Balti and Endinbough a lot. I keep getting put into Leg matches, so when i move forward to try and be a DD screen i get blown up by Yamato and GK guns that i cant angle against.
I've been playing a lot of AP advantageous cruisers like Baltimore and Prinz Eugen lately. I play them not just because they're fun and a good challenge, but the HE spamming ships all have one thing in common: They are all extremely vulnerable. And can be smacked HARD. I also noticed that the MAJORITY of the campaign ship cruisers are light cruisers, which are great HE spammers. Usually I experience HE spam issues from campaign ships. They are greedy. I focus them hard and focus them. The cruisers need to learn to protect their battleships and engage any high value targets, as you will do the most damage to them, with AP and HE. Battleships need support. Destroyers need support. Cruisers do most of the heavy lifting in terms of damage output.
My desire to play the game in any class has dropped significantly over the last month or so. Sitting behind an island and lobbing fire is about as exciting as watching paint dry. Playing DD has some fun but not like it used to. Playing the BB is like you said, all eyes on you to be set on fire or torped. Combined with matchmaking the game has really declined in a way only wargambling could do.
I must say, other than balance, a problem with the game is game modes. I lie playing the game, but it's the kills that feel like a victory, not the actual wins. That's why people kill chase and throw games. The core gameplay and the gamemodes aren't truly compatible. I know that the arena game mode is some of the most fun I've had in this game, but it's limited time. I do love the game, but I find myself playing other games more often, and wish that the fun outweighed the frustration. Maybe it will be solved, but I'm not sure. Holding out high hopes, but setting my expectations low.
i just never bother playing german bbs anymore because every time i did i could never hit any destroyers and cruisers could sit there farming me from half a map away. its bs
@SpartanElite43 can you hit me with a good captain build for both USN battleship lines please I'm having a rough time hitting anything even at close range lol thanks Spartan
I dont want to sound like i dont agree with you , i actually agree that battleships Tier 7/leggendaries doesnt have a good time vs destroyers and cruisers, yet i fell to Say that you never used HE shells versus destroyers, you should use them sometimes
I have stopped playing.The invisible destroyers in most games just get to be boring.I also like to play my battleships but I get bankrupt and can’t afford repairs and will not pay.(payed quiet a bit over last year)
Why BB are useless, 5 dd per match , op HE spamming cruisers, which are protected when broadside to many islands. Bring back players, fix burning to 30 sec give commanders Achievements. Issue to making dd concealment more, need to add firing range , torp range an bigger maps Dd concealment is 5.2 due to guns only reaching 10ks an torps only at 9.2 . Now if it's to 6ks concealment guns to reach 12-13ks torps avg 10.5ks
I love how the video is more about how inbalanced the game already is than the gameplay itself. Don't get me wrong, I love the Iowa even after they nerfed it. But it just shows how bias WG is against bbs. It's gotten to the point where bbs are more of a punching bag than the bag that can punch back. Now they're adding another dd and another HE spammer (Mainz). It's gotten to the point where I only get on the game to grind for bureau projects one step at a time and get right off. Based on the new ships coming, it's clearly obvious they didn't pay attention to what people said in their surveys about what is holding the game back. Not surprising since the CC exodus, but still sad knowing this is who WG really is and that the golden age of Wows: Legends is long over.
That's why I have taken a step back from playing this game everything you have spoken about, don't get me wrong it a great game but it needs balancing so bad
I really enjoyed the Game but I quit its madness every game 4-5destroyers and all the HE spam its ridicilous . Switched back to world of tanks and no problems at all. And the aircraft carriers are way OP. Feeling bad all the money in the game and the devs just dont care
Listening to you complaining about destroyers and he cruisers is kinda annoying. They serve their purpose in the game for a reason and all have their roles. Same reason some destroyers have great torps and crap guns or vise versa. Not only that, stop complaining about your crap aim and how every salvo should be an immediate kill. The game wouldn't be fun if every shell hit a citadel. It's skill and some luck. You complaining won't change the dynamics of the game and the ship roles.
Then why are you here watching the video? If you don't like what a CC is saying move along and find someone else who has a opinion and thought process like your own. The fact is Spartan has hit the nail on the head with alot of his comments regarding the SOTG. Something needs to change or this game will be dead in the water (pun intended)
You clearly don't have any idea of what I'm trying to do its not about complaining it's about trying to bring balance to the game which is sorely lacking in that department as a battleship
@@SpartanElite43 it's not though. The game dynamics between dd cc and bb are balanced imo. Unless it's a game with 5 dd. Like I said in my previous comment there are different cc types with their own roles, some are island hoppers. Plus, bb can wipe most crusiers in a single Salvo. To combat this, rng has to come into play so that people playing other ship types don't get deleted 5 seconds into the game and everyone can play. And honestly some of it is blind luck. While some tweaks could be implemented, I think overall the game is fine (you also have to account for other players camos and commander builds which could affect your dispersion and damage inflicted)
This is dump. Putting realistic stats into a game is just dump. If the game was with realistic stats everyone would have been playing the Americans and nothing else. So no point saying how much the shell weights and complaining about a game mechanic.
The alarm for island collision is driving me crazy...the update changed the range on it...it needs to alarm as it does but only long enough to give you a heads up..not keep alarming after the game ends...
Couldn't agree more, just literally had 4 dd's per team and 2 of them firing wall after wall of torps at me, stood no chance particularly when I had nothing to aim back at!

Hitting a DD with 4 16" Iowa shells at 6k should absolutely wreck it. Even with overpens the holes would be massive.

Maybe they should add duds to destroyers, in ww2 not all torpedo’s meant a detonation
My best ever salvo was also in the Iowa, very first shot of the game I lined up a broadside Georgia and BOOM 63k dmg and back to port for him!
I've had some doozies with Iowa
Totally agree with you on the DDs. Surely that one shell hit should be enough to sink a destroyer.
Naw overpens were a thing irl
Hms warspite in the 2nd battle of narvik disagrees
Imagine the horrible gameplay that’d be it’s no a simulation game and even if it was like the previous reply said over pins are very much a real thing
@@ant_jams8708 yeah they are real but your not telling me that 4 or 5 overpens from a 16” projectile isn’t gonna nuke a destroyer in real life

I feel your pain with too many destroyers per matchmaking and battleships targeted with He spamming. Good games and keep up the good work Sparten 👏
I didnt even know it was possible to kill an ochakov like that, they are basically immune to battleship ap
I know right I hit one broadside with my Georgia and did 5k damage
My faw ship and a double feature. Can I ask for a better think?

AL Scharnhorst and Paolo Di Revel

I generally get more damage with AP from bbs on DDs than I get with HE with exception being British or Japanese HE
God, I miss the old iowa. And you own a wrx? Is it a sti tho?
Not an STI just a regular WRX
Aye Spartan, what year is your WRX

I was playing yesterday, and we had a total of 10 dd. Yeah that was fun. Lol

Yet in real life, four 16 inch rounds from an Iowa would all but vaporize ANY destroyer....
I honestly think Carriers are a bigger issue than DD’s, a persistent carrier can wreck anyone’s day no matter if you’re in a Battleship, Cruiser or Destroyer.

I have stopped playing.The invisible destroyers in most games just get to be boring.I also like to play my battleships but I get bankrupt and can’t afford repairs and will not pay.(payed quiet a bit over last year)
Why BB are useless, 5 dd per match , op HE spamming cruisers, which are protected when broadside to many islands.
Bring back players, fix burning to 30 sec give commanders Achievements.
Issue to making dd concealment more, need to add firing range , torp range an bigger maps
Dd concealment is 5.2 due to guns only reaching 10ks an torps only at 9.2 .
Now if it's to 6ks concealment guns to reach 12-13ks torps avg 10.5ks
I love how the video is more about how inbalanced the game already is than the gameplay itself. Don't get me wrong, I love the Iowa even after they nerfed it. But it just shows how bias WG is against bbs. It's gotten to the point where bbs are more of a punching bag than the bag that can punch back. Now they're adding another dd and another HE spammer (Mainz). It's gotten to the point where I only get on the game to grind for bureau projects one step at a time and get right off. Based on the new ships coming, it's clearly obvious they didn't pay attention to what people said in their surveys about what is holding the game back. Not surprising since the CC exodus, but still sad knowing this is who WG really is and that the golden age of Wows: Legends is long over.
Jesus Christ 5 hit to citadel fucked up that Yamato. What build you got??? 🧐
You made a great point spartan, ive almost stopped playing it. Lost a lot of interest.. once loved it.
I hope you have better luck than the PC players there community contributors have quit on mass
Hi
Hello!
That's why I have taken a step back from playing this game everything you have spoken about, don't get me wrong it a great game but it needs balancing so bad
With what you were saying as in regards to the cruisers and destroyers. That is why I don’t play battleships.
I love playing the game. I just don’t like how the Battleships are spotted so easily.
The HE spam needs to get nerfed
I quit playing because of RNG
I'm tired of HE SPAM it's really bad they keep making more ships
That Ochakov in the beginning is why this game is starting to suck. Players like that is why legendary is broke. They play the same way. 😩
I really enjoyed the Game but I quit its madness every game 4-5destroyers and all the HE spam its ridicilous . Switched back to world of tanks and no problems at all. And the aircraft carriers are way OP. Feeling bad all the money in the game and the devs just dont care
Listening to you complaining about destroyers and he cruisers is kinda annoying. They serve their purpose in the game for a reason and all have their roles. Same reason some destroyers have great torps and crap guns or vise versa. Not only that, stop complaining about your crap aim and how every salvo should be an immediate kill. The game wouldn't be fun if every shell hit a citadel. It's skill and some luck. You complaining won't change the dynamics of the game and the ship roles.
Then why are you here watching the video? If you don't like what a CC is saying move along and find someone else who has a opinion and thought process like your own. The fact is Spartan has hit the nail on the head with alot of his comments regarding the SOTG. Something needs to change or this game will be dead in the water (pun intended)
You clearly don't have any idea of what I'm trying to do its not about complaining it's about trying to bring balance to the game which is sorely lacking in that department as a battleship
@@SpartanElite43 it's not though. The game dynamics between dd cc and bb are balanced imo. Unless it's a game with 5 dd. Like I said in my previous comment there are different cc types with their own roles, some are island hoppers. Plus, bb can wipe most crusiers in a single Salvo. To combat this, rng has to come into play so that people playing other ship types don't get deleted 5 seconds into the game and everyone can play. And honestly some of it is blind luck. While some tweaks could be implemented, I think overall the game is fine (you also have to account for other players camos and commander builds which could affect your dispersion and damage inflicted)
This is dump. Putting realistic stats into a game is just dump. If the game was with realistic stats everyone would have been playing the Americans and nothing else. So no point saying how much the shell weights and complaining about a game mechanic.
War gaming destroyed world of tanks they will not listen to you
This game is so bs now
