LONG LIVE GERMAN DDs!

Actually Z-39 can be a beast! Can't wait for the HE buff coming to them soon! (see DB post).

Also, I see all of you!

Mahalo,

Standby for words from the Chief.

The Japanese operation, like the earlier attack on Pearl Harbor, hoped to eliminate the United States as a strategic power in the Pacific, thereby giving Japan a free hand in establishing its Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere. The Japanese hoped another demoralizing defeat would force the U.S. to capitulate in the Pacific War and thus ensure Japanese dominance in the Pacific. Luring the American aircraft carriers into a trap and occupying Midway was part of an overall "barrier" strategy to extend Japan's defensive perimeter, in response to the Doolittle air raid on Tokyo. This operation was also considered preparatory for further attacks against Fiji, Samoa, and Hawaii itself.

The plan was handicapped by faulty Japanese assumptions of the American reaction and poor initial dispositions. Most significantly, American cryptographers were able to determine the date and location of the planned attack, enabling the for...

Well that was what I was getting at originally, removing the legacy launcher YES should fix the issue!

This probably will not occur until we have finalized all the testing, which this is another test iteration, so it will be some time.

TBH, what I would do is uninstall any instances that are loaded from the old launcher.

Well as @DEWEY_96_ had mentioned the HP pools literally don't matter much. Most recently I had a battle in Odin where I had 3.9 million potential tanking in other ships faces vs Tier X ships. It is all in how you angle and use the ship.

He's talking about Champagne, as in he runs a secondary build on her, much like the Odin.

So with 15 inch guns she has a 28 sec reload and .6 sec more for a 16 inch gun seems not right? I think that is a pretty good balance considering the punch that these 16's have.

I mean I have citadel'd Yamatos at 20km BOW ON with them... Not a whole lot of tier VIII BBs can do that.

Also, for the naysayers:

Aloha,

1: WGC and the legacy launcher are different software pieces. Supporting them both takes resources, even on maintenance. What's worse, it takes pretty precious and critical resources of Release and Release QA teams to deploy every update to the Legacy Launcher and WGC. Less update instances to deploy = less chance of issues slipping through.

2: When we first introduced WGC as an option, it was pretty buggy, it lacked some good functions etc - it was in Alpha/Beta actually. And a lot of people used the legacy because it WAS better. But that was YEARS ago. Before we announced forced migration (a few months ago) there was only a few percentage of users on legacy launcher - the overwhelming majority of players migrated already.

3: If you don't want to play other WG titles, that's fine, sure, you play only WoWs. But even then in WGC you have things like multi-account support and automatic WGCh...

Is your client from the old launcher? Or do you have the old launcher on your computer somewhere? The only reason i could see for that to pop up is because of that.

I mean currently her reload is 26 seconds for 406's where the Gascogne has a 28 sec reload for 380s so I would say this is a good balance change.

-Hapa

Just wondering how you know we have "utterly ruined this ship?" Have you played her?

I will tell you I have played 2 iterations of her and I THOROUGHLY enjoy playing her, why? Because she was a bit unbalanced. These changes are good.

-Hapa

So even if you you have poor RNG and get it on the last box, you have to wait 7 days and you WILL be able to play them for another what, 20 days. So this is so horrible? You're getting coal and WILL get to test SS. But because we had to throttle how many people get in and as a result we decided to do this to give you something back just for playing. And this is bad? You're not buying bundles, you're not buying crates, you're literally just logging in....

To be honest, we talked about opening it up to everyone, but after seeing how the MM worked in the PTS, we KNEW we had to do this.

Though I understand you want them right now. We had to do this to throttle the amount of people in SS in queue.

At a maximum, you would get them on the 7th day of log in with the tokens.
