[2019] This game is full of humping island-campers

Hey Captain,

Free to play players get the same calculations when it comes to all the things you have mentioned as players that have bought anything in the past. RNG is RNG for everyone and that is a fact. I have played plenty of games where I think "awesome shot, going to do big damage" and poof, some overpens.

Regarding the OP's post, some ships are better designed to use cover to be effective. This isn't to say you can't use them in open water but that is not where some ships shine. Especially the USN cruisers that excel from shooting behind cover due to their high shell arcs. You must play to the strengths of the ships you are playing. Some cruisers do a great job in the open water and some do better using cover.
