Shimakaze wasn't OP, you're all just shitters who can't dodge

Anumati: It seems reports of my banning have been greatly exaggerated.

Tsunanon: This isn't possible...

Anumati: Oh I assure you, it is.

Tsunanon: How?

Anumati: Not how. Why? You were never meant to autism this hard.

Tsunanon: What happened here was out of our control...

Anumati: Was it? None of this would've happened if you had just stopped. But you posted on. And for what?

Tsunanon: We tried to save /wowsg/.

Anumati: You're no saviors. Your talents lie elsewhere.

Tsunanon: This isn't our fault.

Anumati: It takes a strong group of autists to deny what's right in front of them. And if the truth is undeniable, they create their own. The truth, Tsunanon, is that you're all here because you wanted to feel like something you're not: Heroes. We're here because you can't accept what you've done. It broke you. You needed someone to blame, so you cast it on me. A random namefag. I know the truth is hard to hear, but it's time. You're all that's left and we can't live this lie forever. I'm going to count to five, then I'm pulling the trigger.

Tsunanon: You're not real, this is all in our heads.

Anumati: Are you sure? Maybe its in mine? One.

Tsunanon: No... everything, all of this, it was all your fault!

Anumati: If that's what you believe then shoot me. Two.

Tsunanon: W-we didn't mean to hurt anybody...

Anumati: No one ever does, user. Three.

Anumati: Four. Is this what you really want? Five!

Xth for obvious losses

Nth for good night wowsg, sleep tight.

4th for perfect bote in the perfect port with the worst stats ever

GIVE

MOD

>statistically more IJN high rier DDs
>only 20k average damage

kek

it's in alsains

btw despite you cannot check both it and nagasaki, you can install them both in two aslain launchings, nagasaki replaces yokosuka and this replaces ny so they don't interfere

You want spoonfeeding?
haha NOPE

If you install Nagasaki manually, it'll work just fine, kitty.
Source: I have both
One's for daytime grind and the other's for comfy night-time bote spinning ^_^

i have them both too installed with aslains

Fun, exciting and interesting gameplay.

Very skillful!

>2016
>not specifically targetting turrets with ur tbs so you can detonate

gitgud lolol

Do cruisers ever get better after the aoba? It feels like they're about the same except enemy BB are more likely to delete you

battlecruiser myoko is one of my favorite boats

Aoba is about the sweetspot of the line. After that it's all sameface, with an increasingly hostile environment for cruisers.

The Myoko is so much better then the Aoba. The two additional turrets and armor make a world of difference. The rest of the line is pretty much the same ship with armor added on (besides the mogami 155 meme). The Zao is equipped with a cloaking field, and the flat shell trajectory lets you rek DDs and CAs (Even BBs at close range).

I will fight anyone who says Prinz is the worst T8 CA.

4x2

New Orleans has 3x3. I fail to see how that's any worse.

Hipper is the worst T8 CA.

>tfw fell for the Hipper is good meme

Locked that shitter up, chained her to port and threw away the key. Eugen a shit.

what a risky move that carrier made to achieve it too

>I fail to see how less guns is worse

>9*4.3 = 38.7 RPM
>8*4.6 = 36.8 RPM

>I FAIL TO SEE HOW THAT'S ANY WORSE

Top meme, m8. Top meme.

I suppose if you can't tell the difference between 8 and 9, sure they're the same thing.

> BUMPER BOATS!

>Do shitty
>Win
>Carry team
>Lose
I hate this meme.

Damn this is some comfy ass shit

>1 cannon makes all the difference
The secret isn't in Hipper's HE, it's her AP. If you have support like a BB or something you can take on Battleships no problem.

Hahaha shitter delusions

>it's raining outside
>it's raining ingame too
TIME TO NAP

Any ship can be good if you know how to use her. People use to shit on Atlanta all the time, some still do, but I always top charts and get loads of damage and kills in Atlanta. Just depends how you play, well or like shit.

Literally any ship can do that. Hipper AP is a goddamn meme. I still delete hippers in one salvo in an NO, and I do it in my Atagoy too. I don't have to angle sideways to shoot off more than 4 shells and my HE is always better.

Hipper being good is a goddamn meme.

the "German AP is good" meme needs to die

Once the enemy angles even by a couple degrees it loses all penetration power

>wowsg told that german T5 is worth
>they were right
I love this boat and with Prinz as my fregattenkapitän I can't go wrong.

>check two week stats
>Hipper worst T8 cruiser in NA/EU
>barely any better than Mogami and NO
>le Hipper is good meme

>Look at my really cool anecdotal BULLSHIT

There's entire websites dedicated to tracking these numbers.. The top players in Atlanta are only putting out 53k average. Meanwhile even the top Pensa is putting out 62, and never mind the fucking Myoko with its top player averaging 72k.

Then there's the matter of the overall average for the Atlanta and, as you'd expect, its rock fucking bottom in the tier at 22k, meanwhile Myoko and for some reason Shchors are at 35k and 40k respectively.

tl;dr Atlanta's best day is still a mediocre day for literally any other ship in the tier. It's shit.

Konigsburg is the high point of the line.
Tbh both of the newer cruiser lines have great T5s.

Websites tracking these numbers also say Hipper is shit.

>see a new player going down the German cruiser line
>don't have the heart to tell him it's shit and hope he just has fun

most of them will ragequit at nurnberg as they get blown up in one shot, the special few who make it to York will probably quit there

the special ones who get to hipper and realize how goddamn mediocre it is will probably just quit

German cruisers, not even once

Hipper needs buffs badly

>repeatedly nerf the shit out the Mogami to try to kill it off completely
>bring out the russian cruisers which basically do the same thing anyway
good to see WG hasn't changed much with their switch from land to sea.

And they're not wrong about it, but Atlanta is an especially shit case.

ATLANTA BUFFS FUCKING WHEN WARGAMING THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE FOR SOMETHING THAT COSTS 40 FUCKING DOLLARS

The german line has never been anything but mediocre. Ever since radar, even the Dank Meme is pulling in much better performances than it used to. The Hindenburg is now the worst TX cruiser across all servers.

>The Zao is equipped with a cloaking field
Ibuki actually has better firing range and better concealment than Zao, but the decrease in invisifire buffer is more than made up for by Zao's flamethrower railguns.

Unless Chappy is complete shit, Hipper is pretty damn disappointing.

Hipster is SHIT, HE is worse than yorcks and can't turn for shit. Also I somehow pulled better stats in koingsburg but lower wtr lmao.

fuck, and I just wanted to keep goin down the kraut line. I suffered alot with Karlsruhe doing no damage whatsoever but still made it so I think am gonna see it for myself. It's either hipper or Zao.

Chapayev is pretty good.
Better than the Hipper definitely.

such a flat belly~

pls no bully about damage

Nothing is as bad as the Karl. The konisberg is the highlight of the line and a really damn good ship

Nurnberg is more of the same, just with a faster RoF. The downside to the nurnberf is it sits super high in the water so a BB farting in your general direction will blow you out of the water

Yorck is..okay. It's not bad, just mediocre

Hipper is also mediocre

Roon is actually pretty damn good

Hindenburg isn't bad either, it's just not as competitive

If you actually like the ships then continue down the line but be warned it's pretty "meh"

Hipper is still better than New Orleans imo

I mean, I don't do terribly in her according to the numbers, but playing her just feels frustrating.
>can't turn worth a shit for cruiser standards - you will eat many torps
>AP will bounce against any angled target
>AP somehow manages to not penetrate squishy BB superstructures - enjoy your 4 hit salvos for 0 damage
>HE is okay but a downgrade from Yorck's
You can make her work, but it just feels kinda disappointing.

Real talk: If Prinz Eugen wasn't such a qt in that other bote game, no one would like Hipper in WoWS.

>Chappy
>excellent range
>great accurate guns
>good rof
>good HE

The people spouting the RU cruisers are bad meme are probably the same shitters saying german CAs are good. I'm up to the chappy and asides from the pre-buff svietlana, it's a pretty good line. ABY turret layouts on Kirov and Buddy is a goddamn blessing, and the armor was never really an issue.

>i set smoke and flee back north where the cruiser is a goner but the enemy amagi rushes ahead into our iowa and somebody else
>i shoot the amagi while benson gathered her courage to enter the smoke and appears on my tail shooting me again
>i switch to the benson while hiding behind an island
>benson flees after eating several shells but now that amagi decided to shoot me instead of bb and sinks me with a full salvo before eventually succumbing to our ships

no escape, just no escape... we won, pink still stuck to me, i watched how our udaloy with 900hp and the very same benson with 300hp shot each other for like half a minute from like 11km till udaloy sunk and then our tirpitz turned and finished benson with a full salvo

well?

hello moriartyholmes :^)

>tfw St Louis

:^)

thanks for the advices lads, I still want to try the german line but I think I am gonna lower my expectations.

Go for it. As long as you know what you're in for, you'll be fine. At least the line isn't as unsalvageable as USN CVs.

>2.1 ships killed per game and 53k damage per game
Tenryu ain't kowai of any St. Cuck.

Honestly, it's probably because of how incredibly fragile they are, and Kirov was the breaking point. Lots of people (including myself) were incredibly frustrated by Kirov's fuckhuge size, paper armor, nonexistent concealment and abysmal maneuverabiilty (for a cruiser). It's a ship that is literally all gun. And good guns won't do you any good if you can't fire them because you're dead. The ABY turret arrangement feels wasted on a ship that you're going to try to keep at max range all the time.

The Buddy is a nicer experience so far, so I'll withhold judgment on the entire line until I get further in.

>Real talk: If Prinz Eugen wasn't such a qt in that other bote game, no one would like Hipper in WoWS.
>out of curiosity I went to the kancolle wiki to see info about Prinz Eugen.
>play her quotes.
>that fucking wedding line.
>mfw this user was right.
holy fuck what a qt, I like the fanart behind her but I never knew about this before. I even considering draw something about her.
I just hope am not gonna regret the grind to get Hipper.

vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/kancolle/images/c/cd/Prinz_Eugen-Attack.ogg

I know that feel, rh3. I have Nurnberg, all three matches I played in her today were defeats.

Where are you snoope_manga?

I miss the double XP event
>put premium camo on
>every match get on average 6-7k XP
>one match I got 12k XP

What three upgrades should I buy for the furutaka?

Who is this?
I'm not at my PC right now famtachi.
tfw no QT boatgirl pics to post

Your favourite crazy gamer.

Upgrade all to get elite status.
If u like to shot at the enemy, go for the main battery upgrade and the gun fire system, if u like torps, hull and well... torps. Try not to spend much money at her cuz she sucks balls.

You thought it was SlayMad, but it was actually I, StayMad. HAHAHAHAHA

Who is that.
I don't understand.
I thought it was LunaticCyan

>cruisers who run into torps hastily fired on an approximately parallel course to their course
Guys pls

>including myself

>bad_arcade_kitty

wew lad

i-t was not my fault that i accidentally torped a friendly dd.... i served 5 or 6 games of shame for it

But I have the highest solo WR and solo skill :^)

>Triple XP and discounts on Port Slots (weekend only).
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
WHERE WERE YOU WHEN NA BTFO'D LITERALLY EVERY OTHER SERVER

it's the whole month ahead

>That Kongo at the bottom

Did he just go on a sight-seeing tour far away from the battle?

>worldofwarships.com/en/content/docs/event-preview/
forgot link like a dumbass

>buy Kongo
>first game vs t7 carrier who just deletes me
>second game top tier game crashes at min 8, come back in 3 fires, almost dead
nice

This happens all the time and it needs to stop. 1 tier is fine but 2 pushes it. I'm sick of fighting Yamatos and Montanas in my NC and just getting deleted.

>May 13-20: Japan Week
>Discounts on Port Slots, Commander Skill reset, and a double Commander XP mission (weekend only).
>Commander Skill reset
Much more interesting tbqh. What is the reason behind this?

>got my fletcher
>no other ships I want
>sick of BBs so German BBs in the summer don't interest me

man this sucks

who else knows this feel, the only other line I'd even consider grinding is jap cruiser but mogami is so bad I don't know if its worth it

>carriers have better concealment than cruisers
of balans )))))))))))))))
