I did not purchase Iron Duke because I was anticipating the arrival of Rank VI Premium Battleships. I was hoping, perhaps, for a KGV-class ship.
The price tag of these, however, is something that caught me off-guard. I was expecting 60, maybe 65-70€ at most… not 80. I don’t think I can afford this at the present time.
Makes no difference really with a WW2 rangefinder. Yes ours would be laser accurate, but with dispersion anyway, its not that deep.
You will be relying on the part where noone can get your magazines, that is your only strength. Basically you will die a death of 1000 cuts from ships reloading faster than you, rather than from one big bang.
I agree it does seem like britain is getting the short straw this update, but britain still is one of the most fun nations to play all around which is why i main it myself, i just dont like seeing fellow british mains complain when we already have a lot more stuff than other countries
Tbh my issue with it is the fact there is still a british battleship in the russian tree because they apparently needed it, and now they are getting 2 unfinished ships in the same update
I agree a lot in naval we are pretty okay and some real shining stars in there (Hood my beloved).
We have a good tree all around and no tier is completely unplayable (rank IV comes close but southhampton and liverpool come in clutch), but this is genuinely like when they added Orion when Scharnhorst was at its peak.
It’s like yeah, its a good ship to add and I love to see it but… priorities???
Lion would be a much better addition here, as pen would be similar, more guns, but you’d have armour that would stand up as well as good module layout.
I look at it from a top tier prespective up until recently the UK had the second least amount of 7.0s for naval only being beaten out by france, for ground they could have easily fixed both italy and the UK with CAMM instead both are being screwed over with nothing
I thinkis valid to complain when you have the worst SALCOS SAM at top tier and have had it for well over 2 years probably 3 and your one of the few nations not getting an improvement
then for naval our big end of the line ship is going to be one of the worst added this update, which could have been fixed if gaijin give the UK the same treatment of the soviets and got an incomplete ship (the lion will actually have historical stats for her 16inch guns as they are already in game Soyuz will probably get made up stats or gaijin will take the best estimate like the krons since the soviet 16inch guns arent in game)
I don’t like the prices; I would much rather have a low-tier option of just a premium vehicle, nothing else, for about half off.
its just to heavy of a steep price for even me to consider purchasing
im just wondering what premium america could get for battleship, most of the iowa class had base model and late model, and the only ones that wasn’t upgraded was ships never fully built… i hope they use one of the never fully built so it wont be SOL for late model upgrades (that might even make ships have dynamic br’s)
also, really hope to see montana class battleships even if it wasn’t laid down… WoW with its health base system is just not it
