As if there isn’t enough RNG in the game already that takes away from player skill being rewarded… now a mechanic that further increases that factor. Incredible.
sealord it's very simple how the spotter plane works, they have a better view of the incoming projectiles, then you put really, really smart people in who will calculate in milliseconds where the projectiles will land and tell your captain how to avoid them!
When I was in the CST Program, we tested that feature +30% Dassle! That was almost 4 years ago. When we tested it, we used it on a DD and we used a Minotaur to shoot it (lots of shells...let's go). It was hysterical honestly. It was like the DD had a force field. We told them it was too much. Of course, we were thinking it was going to be huge buff to the commander skill, not a consumable.
The next consumable will be raft dropped over board that becomes an instant island that has 2 modes blocks gunfire and torpedoes or air that blocks all bombs and missiles. Both modes lasts 90 seconds, cool down is 2 minutes and you have 3 charges..
Sea Lord, the new spotter is *OBVIOUSLY* orbiting in such a way that the pilot is pointing a mirror at the range finders of the enemy ship, and therefore blinding them with the sun. Or, WeeGee sent laser pointers back in time.
The pilot of the spotter plane simply shines a very bright light down into the ship and right into the person’s eyes who is pulling the trigger which causes him to apparently flinch and miss. Makes perfect sense….
@@kineticstar That Montana just came to be destroyed by going forward against 3 destroyers. And especially Gearing and Shimakaze, who are both great torpedo destroyers that have no problem in destroying Battleships going towards them. Montana went in front of his own destroyers even. Result? Being destroyed while doing some 30k dmg? He could do much more if he stayed back, shot at what his destroyers spot, could react to that middle push which almost lost game for Mountbatten team and then he would keep supporting his DDs on D. There was no way to push D for him. That is why I reacted to that, because probably no Battleship, maybe only Libertad and maybe Schlieffen could push D like that. And they would still need their destroyers to spot and chase enemy DDs else they would just retreat and torp. Montana just could not help them fight 3 enemy DDs, with 30 sec reload and no secondaries.
Wasn't WG going to try several styles with the Yari and see what worked best? My guess is there's a shark painted on the spotter plane and that scares the enemy gunners.
i own most all the subs none of them go faster than my Kleber or Tashkent not even close. My 4501 is pretty fast underwater but nowhere near as fast as some of the faster DD's or even cruisers and its horribly slow on surface.
Thank god they are nerfing those experimental low HP ships. I keep fighting them in randoms and they are broken as fuck. Also side note, community testers should not be able to do a 3 man div with other other test ships, I've seen this happen several times now. It feels extremely unfair going against a div of 3 untested and potentially broken ships by testers.
I'd be happy if they just fixed the bug that causes your whole broadside to fall 200 meters short of where you actually aimed....? (Several times last night - it's getting boring).
Spotter causing additional dispersion? Logic really is going out the window. Doubtful if this makes it to the production servers. If it does, it is another nail in the coffin of players leaving. WAKE UP WG!
rangefinding at you based on your spotter only works real life if your spotter hovers directly over you like a helicopter? or maybe the spotter is SO annoying and tempting for your enemy they try to shoot it down with their main guns? i know battleships fired main guns at a zeppelin during the immediate post-jutland hours. but they had special anti air shrapnel rounds to do it.
Wouldn’t you like to be in the room when they start proposing new gimmicks for the game? I mean, really, come on guys. No wonder the games are getting unbalanced,unfair and passive.
So.... everyone is pissy that the meta for ship gameplay has devolved into "stay as far away as possible and hurl a shitload of rounds and hope for the best, while hiding behind islands" Then WG introduces a "F**k your sniping" mechanic. And everyone cries HARDER. 😂 This fanbase would bitch about winning the lotto and being gifted a harem of international sex servants. "I hate every new thing the game does that ISN'T the version it was when i liked it best. 😠" - basically every WoWS player that comments on any dev update 😂😂😂😂

eh i think its pretty minor, would pick going up against that ship over dealing with sub or CV
I dont think its as ridiculously outlandish as magically gaining xray vision through smoke because a team member can see them

Good spotting pilots in WW2 were able to shoot down incoming shells fired from enemy ships.

I just started playing this game. The grind in this game is insane and they really stick it to you with the outrageous prices.
Uninstall this pay to win shit

The plane pilot is using a flashlight and is blinding the enemy gunners eye. :)
I was thinking it was a laser pointer...
At this point, I dont care about things making sense. Just make it balanced and fun.
That Montana in the beginning. One does not simply push against 3 destroyers and a Zao.
When flanking maneuvers fail on the brothers, where then will you turn?

@Reptilian.Complex bro, I just stuck with your Lord of the Rings reference.
@@kineticstar Yea :D and it flew over my head. Sorry.
Maybe the spotter tells the ship shells were fired at her and she has time to dodge?
I'm gonna say weegee got into the engineers over at keltecs coke stash and did a few lines.
It's a very VERY LOUD spotter plane obviously 😂
So basically Yari is just a free Omaha devstrike but at T10
The slow death march of this game continues...good times.
"georgia uptiered to t9" XD great mess up mountbatten
T8 georgia when?

Like the faster-than-DDs-underwater subs and the super-carrier "cruiser", it's all a Mystery of the Sea....
i own most all the subs none of them go faster than my Kleber or Tashkent not even close. My 4501 is pretty fast underwater but nowhere near as fast as some of the faster DD's or even cruisers and its horribly slow on surface.
@gatorbite9816 plenty dds really struggle to catch subs by sheer speed. Marceau sure can catch them but doesn't have many charges per drop.

Always enjoy the videos
Detonations are no more.
The old adage - 'keep it simple, stupid'.

Don't you beieve in majic? The spotting AC increasing the enemy fire dispersion in tought in freshman 101 spellcasting! LOL
Magic
I love this game by that i mean in this case the console version but god i legit in either games case i don't get wargamings decision making
Spotter causing additional dispersion? Logic really is going out the window. Doubtful if this makes it to the production servers. If it does, it is another nail in the coffin of players leaving. WAKE UP WG!
Spotter gives you info on firing ships allowing you to 'pre-dodge'. ??
Vermont in the new test server has 460mm guns pls tell me if im right
How do you make the camera height vary up & down in game? You seemed to raise & lower the camera view at times.
C only when spotter active
I would love to know whatever happened to the CV spotting going away. Are they still working on that or did it get scraped?
As far as we know the CV ReReWork is still being worked on
Yari, mid to close range. So they buffed its armor, right? Right?

Sea Lord, any snow and blizzard where you live?
Yes! Cruiser more love!
USS Oregon... the pre-WW1 BB?
Why more new ships? Who needs ever more ships?
Gotta keep the kids interstate with something new every couple months
Wouldn’t you like to be in the room when they start proposing new gimmicks for the game? I mean, really, come on guys. No wonder the games are getting unbalanced,unfair and passive.
WGing and their gimmick garbage. I'm sure Yari is a Dabloon ship, hence the moronic gimmick to push sales for it.

"Funner"? Are you sure English your first language?
Lets just say that I watched greyhound for the 10th time
It's more stupidity from war gaming.
A spotter plane that actually helps you spot would be great. Just extending the firing range is not what you look for but seeing more is.
Whole lot of seriousness over a game? Play, have fun. if you don't have fun?.. quit.
Guys, wth is wrong with MM?! Last time i got 5 dds, 1 sub, 1 cv. 3 bbs and 2 cr. I rly enjoyed this game😅🎻🚬⚰️🪦
