Every QE, R, and Nelson class was sent to the breakers shortly after the war. Royal Sovereign actually avoided the yards longer than most since the Soviets were slow in returning her.
so the Novorossiysk is the exception to this then

The only thing Gaijin is consistant in, is being inconsistant in their rules.

Kinda shocking to be honest. Given she was British built she should be a premium in the British tree and not in the Russian tree.
But I guess the Dev’s don’t care for the British tree unlike other tree’s do they. Cant get anything they add to the UK tree right.

at least for the italian one they got it 2 updates before it was added to the russians
I have no issues with her being in the Soviet Tree. None at all.
But 4 things shouldn’t have happened.
- She shouldn’t have been introduced without a British equivalent
- She shouldn’t have been introduced so late
- She shouldn’t have been introduced before the British one (which could easily just be a reskin with a different name and number)
- She shouldn’t have been introduced almost flawlessly as far as additions go meanwhile there is literally nothing correct with Rodney aside from her general outline.
Literally they could have changed the statcard name, the printed name on the side and the skin and she’d be a parallel addition to the UK tree.
So nice one, now the USSR still has more top tier TT ships than the most relevant navy until 1943, and one of those ships isn’t even in her native tree.
Absolute travesty, this shouldn’t be the precedent that’s set, but yet again, the UK naval tree has been shafted.

I think its pretty clear which one has had a significantly greater amount of dev time. Given the dry spell we’ve had the last 2 years. Rodney should ahve come in a flawless state

I can agree with this for the most part.
Its very telling when one ship arrives almost perfectly in one tree and another ship is a right old mess in another tree…
Very telling.
Personally I wont be wasting my time with grinding out Rodney…or any other ships.

i am feeling realy mixed on if i want to grind it as it is my favorate ship desing irl but with how she is currently i dont know if i want to
My plan… she isnt going to be a priority for me and even though I do fully intend to work on naval more than I normally do to unlock her, will probably still be a few weeks. Whether or not I spade when I unlock her is another question entirely and will entirely depend on whether Gaijin has actually started to model her correctly or not
True but Novo is Guilio Cesare, we physically lack a TT R class or a ‘damn its close enough’ QE class in the TT.
Russia have 5 goddamn top tiers, we have 2 that are TT for christ sake. Could’ve made a full lineup if they’d have added an R-class reskin too and noone would have complained.
Sure a bit of ‘damn its a shame it wasn’t Warspite/QE/Valiant’. But noone is seriously complaining there.
The logic behind the naval additions is completely baffling. The potential for the tree and the mode is infinite on such a capable base platform, the implementation is shocking.
Honestly its exhausting, the list of recent shaftings for this tree compared with some others (not all) is indescribable, like I physically cannot describe the unnecessary lack of all reasonable decision making, even if profanities were allowed it cannot sum up the disappointment, unreasonable, ill-advised, sheer and utter devoid of all relevance decisions in the naval progression for this tree.

I’m going to be reporting as much as I can in the leadup to Christmas for Rodney and the tree as a whole, but I won’t be grinding anything until I see some improvements in the model, implementation etc. If i get her from spamming out Hood then so be it.
well they got 2 updates with the copy of the ship before the russians
Yeah, well said.
I shall be sticking to tanks and planes I suspect. It will annoy me less than trying to play ship’s. Cant stand the normal naval game modes anyhow. I do EC from time to time but I’ve gone off it for now with how bad naval battles are and how poorly Naval has been implemented.
one day i hope to use this to unlock some fun ships to play
