Will the dispersion of the main batteries be fixed before implementation? n the test drive, it has by far the worst dispersion of any gun currently in game. I generally hit with 1-2 rounds out of every 6 shots fired no matter the range or where I aim on the target. With a 40 second reload, that’s going to be awful.

All the three 15in guns (British 381mm, German WW1 380mm and WW2 380mm) in game were given the same worst accuracy unfortunately. Nevertheless I have made a proposal of reworking naval gun accuracy upon more realistic standards, but it’s up to developers’ decision of when or whether to implement it.

It desperately needs it. I fired a salvo at a Battleship in the Hood at a range of about 12km the other day. 5 rounds landed short, the other 3 landed long.

Almost a perfect straddle!

Yep, I was equally impressed and pissed. it’s rare that no shells hit, but its pretty common for less than 50% to hit in my experience beyond “point blank range”

its extremely annoying when your 15 inch shells somehow all miss a battleship thats 3km next to you, like the accuracy of them almost makes them unusable
it looks like a great ship and im excited to see where naval goes, especially when it gets more and more modern.

lmao yea, but by then hopefully gaijin would have given us a ciws
Hehe, we can hope at least :P
Is there any trials data for the 15” ers? How much better or worse should they be.

I don’t have any historical data for the German WW1 38cm gun accuracy, but British 15" and the WW2 German 38cm were known to be one of the most accurate battleship guns irl

I’m personally not excited about that at all. Look at what happened to air and ground when they went “modern”.
We need better core gameplay, not shiny new modern shit.

Maybe you should check what the guy I replied to said… He wasn’t really talking about the Renown. He was talking more about AShMs and CIWS and all that stuff. That’s the stuff I’m not excited about. Of course I’m excited about Renown and any other new content that doesn’t brake the game. But I have very big fears that modern shit, subs, or playable carriers will end up braking the game.

Anyone notice that radar on HMS Renown still not rotating? Even when radar won’t work Gaijin used to add animation, but this time not. Maybe they just don’t know HMS Renown has radar XD

I can’t even get the Renown. Game wont give me any points towards Mark8
First Renown I have met and gonna say it already strikes as a competetive 7.0 lol
Is it a giant ammo rack like most of the American top tier ships? I can just look at those funny and they explode.
oh yeah they do. In case of renown, I need to see it for myself but well, if a scharnhorst ammoracks you in first salvo, it is not a good look for your ship :b
It’s one of the easiest to ammoracked from my experience today, both in this ship and as an opponent
