Yo this guy. You still owe me duel.
Lul, I more want to show I care, and have been willing to put my money where my mouth is 😂 I really, really like Naval Battles. But, I have not enjoyed any of the matches I have tried since the Naval Arcade aiming changes went through 😭

Yeah. The changes in arcade aint great.
Last time I had naval battle went like this (nothing to do with gameplay itself but I find it funny since my ammo went boom but ship like nothing happend because of my network connection):

I’d like to see some 12inch and maybe 15 inch monitors in the coastal tree
Maybe even the one with the 1x 18 inch
But idk if they’d end up being a high BR
or would they be balanced due to their small volume of fire, lack of AA and lack of any proper armour?

That just sounds like some KSP creation where you fire and get flung accross map
it also turns out it retained the 2x 15inches
HMS General Wolfe btw

Yeah then what the fuck am I supposed to do to solve my problem other than complaining? You think Gaijin will magically dedicate a whole update for giving “minor” (I hate using this word, because almost none of these nations should really be considered minor) nations a good amount of vehicles while neglecting major nations someday? But somehow I’m the bad guy in everyone’s eyes, because it’s against the so protected Britain everyone should babysit for some reason. Yet if it was the “big three”, people’s opinions would be different, regardless of the fact Britain has just as much content as the other big trees.

You can complain without being spiteful.

Eh, as long as USA gets nukowa and Germany gets Bismarck, I am happy with this patch naval
Hu?
Lets see Britain and Sweden were the last nations to get Gen 4 aircraft and neither have been overly competitive in air over the past 2 years, only Britian has finally gotten something truly top tier with the Typhoon which is such a buggy mess its almost unplayable
Ground, we have one of the weakest top tier MBTs (maybe if not the weakest these days) and an overall bad line-up for ground on top of that. The Badger is going to do nothing for us in that regard as its going to be a weak 9.3 and the weakest possible IFV they could have added. Still awaiting the half dozen or so British IFVs that would actually be 10.0+, even 2 or 3 that could easily be 11.0+
Naval, we had ages of HMS Hood and that was it, that was our only top tier BB for 2 years. Its nice for us to finally get some alternative options to just using Hood, but we still have nothing even close to the raw performance of Scharnhorst or Amagi. Vanguard might be able to match them
So Britain, the Royal Navy, gets one of its many outstanding BC or BBs and you are acting like its a warcrime? Heck we dont even have an R-Class as that is currently a Soviet exclusive.
So I dont see the issue here. Britain has been very very badly neglected over the last few years, with many additions taking years to get major bug fixes sorted and some additions just outright unusable out of the gate (like the Tracked Rapier and HMS Rodney, both are still not quite right)

I know right, how could someone whine about such a historical ship being added
Though I’d say a2a tornado counts as a 4 gen
In either case, it certainly couldnt 1v1 an F-16 or Mig-29, especially with the stupidly high MP we had for that year

That was pretty rough for the tornado, should’ve been lower. Only problem would be r27er then
Yep, and 60m is still too high imo.
Given they never actually had them IRL. There is quite a simple fix there
50m is probably fine
You know how they are with top tier Russian and Japanese aircraft/armaments

She should receive super charge considering that she will be one of final battleships on top lineup British has along with projected Lion class battleship. Historically not service is not an excuse as there are already ‘planned’ 6 crh AP shell on Hood and Repulse. Especially considering that Royal Navy will be the worst in term of penetration, supercharge is really needed in the future.
No. While shell trajectory has been corrected(well, not 100% historically), shell drop doesn’t mean it could hit deck armor properly in combat range of War Thunder Naval. It only makes aiming harder cause of longer shell flying time, and making penetration of armor more harder.

All hail the Elephant & the Castle the Lord Clive class monitors.
HMS General Wolfe, HMS Lord Clive, as planned HMS Prince Eugene (it would be the third ship in game if added to bear that name, as seen by Prinz Eugen, Eugene di Savoia).
I would hope these monitors get added, maybe in the coastal TT if even goes further than a dumping ground for ocean going frigates.
That does still make me wish we would get the half sister of HMS Glorious (5.7 in game), the HMS Furious which hopefully would be added in the as designed format of two 18"/40 BL Mk. I (niche iirc these guns fired a heavier shell than the 46 cm/45 cannons).
Hmm now come to think of it, just speculation here, but if the Battleship Yamato does indeed come later in the year the HMS Furious would make a good event ship just prior to that update as it would generate hype for such large cannons, than the next update would drop with the Japanese ship.
have you considered playing other tech trees? no ones forced you to play one?
