Possibility to Add R Class Battleships to the British Tree as USSR gets Arkhangelsk

I was just on dev and it was 7.0 for me is why I said it. But 6.7 on live so idk if she’s getting moved up or not.

Ah ok

I literally just said splitting hairs in this way is unhealthy.

 

There will be four British 7.0s as of this patch, if you want to split hairs to this degree.

And if you’re somehow a “British main” yet also missed both event 7.0s for your “main” nation, as of this patch there are still two; two (main) ships is all that’s really needed for a lineup anyway (plus a PT boat and a floatplane).

And if you absolutely desperately need a third (backups exist, and do people really die this much?), there are also four 6.7s to choose from.

 

Erm, precedent obviously matters. A nation getting a brand new top-BR ship, which will also be one of the single best ships in the game within that BR… and then expecting another ship at the same BR at the same time is absolutely unreasonable and not something we see any nation get.

Looks quite bad when multiple updates now it’s been nothing but people whining that (x) vehicle isn’t added to Britain. Probably the worse I’ve seen.

With alll due respect in this case this isnt another vehicle from another nation for Britain, this is something we actually built, and used for over 20 years, russia maybe had it for 2 years

Not being sure which BR it is speaks volumes about how little this sort of splitting hairs actually matters.

Britain is getting a shiny new 7.0 (which is better than most other 7.0s, but decompression is a separate issue) to add to their existing three 7.0s and four 6.7s. Yet apparently that’s not enough for one patch…

Japan has 7 7.0s and all of them are competitive, they got 2 16 inch ships back to back, Britain hasnt had a single competitive battleship for 2 years, and we’re kinda sick of relying on the event vehicles at this point, sorry if that means we need to ask for something that is actually british in origin and actually ended is life also in british service

7.0 or 6.7 it doesn’t really matter. Its quite literally better than every single 6.7 France has.

It’s not like we are asking for a ship that needs to be made. It’s already coming and isn’t even as good as hood while Russia gets a British ship blustering an already better top tier tech tree lineup

That’s not my point, it’s every update there’s one or two vehicles being begged for to be added to Britain.
And yeah it suck’s when you don’t get the vehicle your nation made first, this is a recurring thing you lot should get used to.

So why does Russia need a 5th 7.0?

Ya know people have lives right? People don’t have time to get every event vehicle.

In this particular case we shouldn’t have to ask though, we should’ve had this years ago

Yes, Japan has definitely been getting a ton of capital ship additions, then the first 16" ship on top of this. I certainly am not against them having been added, but it’s definitely a lot for one nation.

That said, this is going to slow down quite a bit now, given how few Japanese battleships are left to add.

 

Meaningless word that amounts to “I don’t like it, so it doesn’t count”.

 

Britain has gotten five capital ships this year. Any claims otherwise, certainly as extreme as yours, are disingenuous. We’ve already been over this.

 

Irrelevant, as already covered.

Say next update f18 is added but America doesn’t get one because their lineups are already strong, that would be fine too?

Read what i said again, battleship, 5 capital ships yet only 1 was an actual battleship, and you’re not even correct because renown was 2023, not 2024

You seem to be defending Russian Naval a lot, so I assumed you mained it (or had at least played it quite a bit)

In a mode where Lineups matter and also Individual vehicle matters is why these are brought up, Apart from France and Italy which have nothing to really add at this time until we get WW2 era BBs, Britain is the worse off, through no fault of its own, it has the ships to add,

Hell we even have the Models for 2 which can easily be ported to bolster the Tech tree lineup, but no, Britain can only have 2 Tech Tree 7.0s While Russia can have 5, USA 3, Germany 4, and Japan 6,

but no, too much to ask to have numerical parity with the lowest count among them, with a ship which is equal to the Barham, Slower but better Armoured.

It is not too much to ask

2 of which are Event Vehicles, Not available to the normal player

They are obviously not as potent as 7.0 ships, Why should Britain need to back up with an Inferior 6.7 vessel while other nations can back up with 1-4 ships past that from the tech tree.

Not to mention 1 of then 4 6.7s is a Rank 6 Premium, One is a paper Battlecruiser, and the other 2 are extremely beige ships

So the 3 Bayerns (2 Tech tree) were not needed after the Scharnhorst? The Single best ship in the game since its addition 3 years ago and only recently starting to get Counters? because there are Multiple “Top-Tier” ships it can use to back it up at 6.3?

If the Vehicle Model is in game there is no reason it should not be added to britain at the same time

Stop counting event vehicles. No one can get one if they start grinding the game today. Unattainable means it doesn’t fix game balance.

Yes, I would absolutely be fine with that. Especially if the US was already getting something better than an F-18 in the same patch (as we have with Rodney). So when we had rumours of the Germans/Swiss getting a Hornet before anyone else… yeah, that made perfect sense given the top end of the German tree, really.

Wild take…
