the accuracy of the guns feels much nicer in the test drive to me at least and the better pen is nice but we will see if it is worth the 8.0 on the live server as 7.7 might get some down tiers and make bringing the 7.3’s less painful or if it is ever worth playing it as you have a 7.3 lineup that will get nice down tiers and it may not be worth taking vanguard till the kgv’s and lion get added and even a g3 or n3 if we are lucky
Yeah, definetly going to have 2 BB line-ups now instead of just the one. (We need more line-up slots)
well i think you will see very little use of vanguard and the other non 8.7 BB’s in regular battles and you will see them more in EC
It is possible.
KGV class my beloved
do you think a kgv would be 7.7,8.0,8.3 as i am not to familier with the RPM and penetration of the 14" guns
I’d guess 7.3-8.0, but it’s difficult to tell as they haven’t really decompressed much yet
Haven’t seen the decompression from the dev server. wouldn’t be higher than Vanguard though, probably a br step below her even with better armour its more or less irrelevant as module layout imo matters more and they’re essentially the same but with more machinery for Vanguard, but the armour very much is better on KGV.
Penetration is ~670mm at point blank irl, in-game idk i’ve lost the pen calculator, but it would be better than the Japanese 14" guns on Fuso etc., RPM is 2-2.1/2.2 rpm same as the British 15" really. Yes there were issues early on with the autoloader, but that was hotfixed (literally in combat) and was primarily down to the gun crews never having used the guns before, let alone having used something as complex as the quad turret.
Based on all of this probably like what 7.7?
Spoiler
Suffice to say. its early days for the decompression
well i think for now 1.7 is a large enough jump as there needs to be the ships added to fill the gaps for now like all the kgv’s QE R class and a massive amount of things between dreadnought and QE which adds up to like all the ships left to add in the same category for other nations excluding america, I cant remember the exact numbers but the numbers were close on the amount to add
But still reckon we’ll see a good chunk of the 6.7-7.3 move up at least another 0.3
Maybe even move stuff enough for light cruisers and heavy cruisers to be different BRs!
um i do feel we need an update for everything to settle then move things again and repet
Maybe. I guess they are at least waiting to finish ships like Bismark first, before moving things too much into sight of her.
But it is quite a jump for most nations and that is a little strange
@Morvran i might be seeing things but i unlocked the AP on vanguard and it seems less accurate than the SAP shells but i might be seeing things
Uh… pass.
I’ve done 2 games with SAP and 1 with SC so far.
thought you guys might be interested
We all know why it’s like that it’s to get you to spend money
I know it is only the dev server but i have been getting a lot more ammo racks than i feel i get on the live server
