Now BRs for Battleshipa are being decompressed. Can HMS Rodney recieve her historical 30second reload rate. Put her at 8.0 if you think thats necessary.
It will see some stronger ships yes.
A few of the stonger 6.0 ships are moving up though, so it won’t be much different from when it was 4.7 seeing 5.7
I don’t really think those already-in-game vessels except Amagi and Mutsu should be uptiered to face the Soyuz and Yamato. Take Hood as example, her main caliber cannot pen Yamato’s belt armor in any regular combat distances, which will totally ruin the game experience.
How often do full uptiers happen in naval? (I play Ground RB far more than naval, and full uptiers seem to happen at least every other game in GRB.) I can’t see the Scharnhorst doing well against the likes of the Iowa, Yamato, or that completely fabricated Russian beast. The Scharnhorst isn’t as tanky as it once was, but I’ve admittedly gotten to the Scharnhorst game much later than many people.
Most ships in game dont do well in uptiers.
My feedback for russia changes
Not sure about arkhangelsk but dont have strong opinion
Kronshtadt→ 7.7 one of the strongest 7.0s currently barely touched by ballistics nerf shouldnt be lower than other current 7.0s
rest seems fine for me
My feedback for germany changes
Scharnhorst → 7.7 same reason as Kronshtadt
Admiral Hipper and Prinz Eugen to 6.0 shouldnt be same br as Nurnberg and Karlsruhe and Spee went up so its obvious change to decompress german CLs too.
Rest of germany changes look fine
Hello
I think it would make sense to unfolder the HMS Armada and HMAS Tobruk. with the HMAS Tobruk being moved to the center line and being place before the HMS Diana / Daring Folder. While the HMS Armada stayed on the left line.
I am saying this as the Tobruk plays more like the Diana / Daring, while the Armada stays on the left line as it is more familiar to the vehicles before it.
Shame the 2 Omaha class in the US line didn’t get foldered as well… they are barely different than each other.
Fair point. :)
Why is Fargo grouped with Brooklyn instead of Cleveland? Fargo-class is direct successor and upgrade of the Cleveland-class, therefore Fargo should be grouped with it, not older Brooklyn-class. Other classes of ships follow this principle, such as Chapayev and Sverdlov, or Furutaka and Aoba, even in the American tree heavy cruisers are grouped in a similar way, so why not Cleveland and Fargo?
Suggestion:
Group Cleveland → Fargo and put Brooklyn where Cleveland is now.
While I like the long awaited decompression, USS Alaska slightly getting that bump up will still give it a death sentence. Can we still keep it at 7.0 since it only has 12in guns? It’s not only soft, but the guns is halfway to an actual battleship. The only thing it is good for is speed and rate of fire.
My feedback on france changes:
Mogodor change not deserved i would say, 9 second reload on a very small 10 round ready for 5.0 would be really poor rack when Le Triomphant can manage 12 RPM for 24 round 1st stage.
So Mogodor should stay at 4.7 you trade a lot of the reload for more guns and being more bulky build with less crew and AA than other french 4.7 dds currently.
I would say it should stay especially when u compare it to soon to be US 5.0 dds which are very good.
I agree with Bretagne changes cause its more main gun Lorraine even though no AA.
Strassbourg armor upgrade being worth 0.3 br is ok too.
Duguay being higher than Jeanne d’Arc is acceptable too.
Error detected, Costal instead of Coastal, Although it does line up with my joke of calling those near useless TT’s Cost’all instead which are filled with the old Rank II vessels & bluewater warships at the end of the trees.
The aviation changes are pointless, if you’re controlling your AA defence like Heavy AA or are in a ship with a radar set to guide the cannons most 8.7 aircraft cannot even get close to a Late WWII/ Post War destroyer type (as per many matches in RB custom battles) niche the Impetuoso class destroyer has radar tracking for the 40 mm/60 autocannons, Let alone these late WWII Battleships filled to the brim with dakka ntm cold war ships are increasingly powerful against aircraft already especially those with SAM’s so why make everything 9.3? (absolute fun police).
For all the lower br 5 inch DDs other than Impetuso with 4x5 inch thats already going up.
Geniere 4,3 → 4,7 (4x5 inch fast RoF)
Z4 Zerstörer 4,3 → 4,7 (4x5 inch fast RoF)
JDS Yūgure (DD-184) 4,3 → 4,7 (4x5 inch fast RoF)
JDS Harukaze (DD-101) 4,0 → 4,3 (3x5 inch fast RoF)
USS Alywin 4,0-> stay at 4,0 (4x5 inch bu arent as fast firing)
USS Bagley 4,0->4,3 (4x5 inch but half arent as fast firing)
A lot of high RoF 5 inch guns at so low br is too much for conventional DDs
I know that puts some same br as Fletcher but they are more than capable thanks to high damage output potential compared to lower RoF dds even at higher brs. And Impetuso already went up so it makes sense.
Also we have USS Coolbaugh with 2x5 inch at 4.0 in coastal so lets be serious about decompression and move actual DD hulls with double the same guns up. I know some of these are harder to use fully than others etc like frontally Yugure can be lacking but its still fine for me.
Depends at least with yamato currently as it is in the dev if a yamato angles the checks can be a weakspot and the very bad ammo placement is a once shot (well have to see if the ammo gets adjusted but we’ll see)
Specifically*
Error in spreadsheet: Izmail is already 7.0 in NAB and NRB. Move up to 7.3 instead then? (Or perhaps it was intended to be wrote as “7.0 → 6.7” looking at the Rank change, from VI to V?)
Spoiler
Answer, ty:
Seeing ships being folderd makes me very happy
No, the 38cm SK C/34, along with Iowa’s Mk7 and Yamato’s Type 94 are the most accurate guns in dev server, much more accurate than Scharnhorst’s 28cm
