They hardly care about Naval. Wasn’t this reported on the dev server? Supposedly fixed now though.
Confirmed is fixed, BUT it still shredded all my ammo amounts AGAIN. FFS, they REALLY need to knock off this crap with ruining our Naval ammo’s every, single, update.

Try hitting an enemy cruiser evading you at 15km.
I’ll wait.

Do you think the USS Oklahoma will be outdated given that it’s a pre-WWII ship?
I’m doing the event anyway because I’m grinding for the Yamato, but I have to admit the Iowa is really tempting me and it could be a gateway

Oklahoma looks fine. Suffers from the 40 second reload silliness though.

Not nearly as bad/low as the North Dakota. Oklahoma has 14 inch guns (N.D. has 12 inch guns), is a Nevada class. And a full tier higher. Should be fine. Does NOT have proximity fused shells for its secondaries, but it is low enough to avoid being uptiered into the 8.7 botes.

Quoting from another tiny Naval thread, so that more Naval players see their comments:

The question is its survivability

Except it has to see Tosa and Mutsu; the two most dangerous ships in the game
I would assume it would be the same or at least similar to the current Nevada class BB in the game (I don’t remember if there is more than one Nevada Class in the game currently, not at computer right now.)
Armor should be near identical to Nevada in game (except for the armored conning tower) but Oklahoma is pre-1929 refit so the torpedo protection will be much worse.

Bro I’ve nailed cruisers at 20km back before the patch with normal aiming on first salvo. Get gud scrub.
Not in arcade you haven’t unless they’re completely blind or they’re screwing about with a floatplane.
Cute you immediately default to calling someone a scrub though when all you do is play PT boats.

Did they removed the marker for the MK10 hedgehog or I disabled something by mistake?
Can we remove the fuckass anti air missile boats from the game or make them a higher BR? And nerf the AI boats AA and the AI boats on the Norway map?

Yeah, the 8 days I have in cruisers in arcade is deffo only playing “PT boats.” I stopped played bluewater because of the patch, and moved to just doing coastal NRB for the events and when I need more lions. I long ago spaded the German BB line before even the Bayern and Scharnhorst came out.
And yes, I have done that in NAB. It takes skill and knowing the leads of your guns, but it was totally doable, and me and the friends I played with in BBs did it regularly. Hell, one time I had a match where, three times in a row, I ammo det’d the same player, twice in a Fuso, once in a Hyuga, using my SMS Kaiser on first salvo. Good times that I sorely miss now with the current playing system.
Point is, no, under the old NAB aiming it was more that doable, but it WAS more difficult than it is now. Now, all aiming is just point and click. No skill, no training, no learning, nothing.

Hyuga’s armor scheme is astronomically terrible that it being ammo detonated on the first salvo doesn’t surprise me.
Fusou it tends to be a gamble of ‘I will take several minutes of constant bullying to bring down’ or just instantly implodes. At least in my experience; the armor scheme is an enigma to me.
Old NAB rarely - if ever - allowed even 15km engagements, spawns were way too close.
Current NAB can allow 20km engagements but again; rare. 14km is a bit of the norm at high tier.
The parabolic arc changes with (leviathans? I don’t remember anymore) also changed how shells work, along with armor degradation also being almost complete removed (now only affects turrets as far as I know)

Hyuuga in general is quite the meme its basically the Ise but just like “what would happen if u immediately sink if your front 2 turrets get ammoracked”.
Ive found that the Fuso is a bit of a weird one, especially when its at the point where it sinks (acts as if its still floating even though its supposed to sink). The main thing i go for with them is basically front 2 turrets and then back 2 turrets that usually kills them fast enough.

Think the fastest I ever killed a Fusou was HE to the bow and somehow flooded it to death within two salvos from 41cm HE.
Not entirely sure how it happened, given the flooding system.
Yeah sometimes theres some weird moments ive already somehow managed to instantly One shot a Fuso from full Crew before not sure how exactly the shots mustve landed all i remember is that it was going head on and was quite far away (like 15km) or something
