I've purchased this ship. It's so different that it takes some time to learn how to play it. But when you get there, very fun and very capable. Honestly, too underrated.
For people thinking on buying this ship, I freaking love it and regret nothing. Im having so much fun in her. Having great games earning loads of creds. In my eyes she is totally worth it.
Personally, I think the only actual reason for sinking dunkirque was that they were jealous of how it was obviously better than most British ships at the time
@@scottwhitley3392 It's a battlecruiser... it's not supposed to destroy the duke of york. They should have just evacuated the fucken thing, with all of Britain's naval forces, they could easily break through the german's weak af navy (comparatively) while still in the range of land-based fighters, providing air cover. I do think the brits had alternative motives for destroying it, alternatives were available.
rich was a improvent over her sister, hopefully the french line comes out soon, i love my dunkerque in game, just got to learn how to play her. she makes me the most money, but is fragile, but that doesnt matter, shes a beatific killer
So many negative comments and the most are from people who played or heard from others bad stuff about Izumo.. First of all Izumo is a damn good ship which needs some skill and the player who plays it not be a fucking chicken who runs behind islands.. Same thing with this one here, Its a ship made for offence and with the correct team (better say division) can push capture-points at start of the game along with the destroyers thanks to her speed and some smoke protection. With aim modules, commander skill and with correct flags up, am pretty sure 6 our of 8 shells will hit the target and perhaps citadels on anyone. Also since most players use the classic WoT tactic to run forth and back, you can just reverse out of an area without exposing your sides and still do damage on enemies and STILL avoid incoming torpedos. And last. You can also use her to hunt down enemy nab cruisers and battleships who stay on max range keep your sides safe, easily avoid incoming shells and make them rage on chat on how unfair life is.. So dont go and say "ohh this ship suck" .. Go and get better..
Davian Thule to be onest I fear the Izumo. She is a Battleship that got my respect, I mean I even killed a Yamato with 4 citadels once ( because I was in the Bismarck and he wasn't paying attention to me I got his side :)) ) but could never overpower the Izumo, only with 2ndary and fires.
Combination of drawbacks are so strong than combination of superior things. Especially main belt armor and turret armor. Even Cleveland can penetrate this armor in 4 km. enjoy!
You let a Cleveland get that close while your main guns have AP that lolpens it from any angle? You've got bigger problems than a ship without enough belt armor buddy.
+GintaPPE1000 It was a unexpected situation. Because cleveland flank the line. I just behave with the other cruiser, and i and my teammate cruiser met him. Cleveland aimed my turret and my turret got rekt. But we could sink him :)
My favorite ship so far after 2+ years playing the game. BUT it´s not for everyone as it´s a peculiar ship. Excels at hunting cruisers. The most important for exels as captain of this ship it´s perfectly know when to use AP and HE shells. It´s survivable always you keep your ship pointing the enemy and don´t offer your broadside. Also reduce to the minimun the time to recharge the Damage Control Party to get rid of fires and the occasional main turret knock out, so buy the premium consumable and train your captain accordingly. Cheers.
I'm a journalist for Ridble.com and I spoke with some Wargaming representatives at Gamescom 2016, asking about the Regia Marina Italiana...they were semi-dismissive but what I understood is that they're coming after the RN cruisers AND Russian BBs. I'm waiting for them as well but I imagine they won't come earlier than the second half of next year
IIrc it's a way to show (in a somewhat discreet manner)other nearby ships you found the right range. But since they got 12 digits they must have doubled as regular clocks during peace time i guess.
"the caliber is modest .... this makes over-penetrations less frequent" => In game It's Overpen number you see the most and not punish a broadside cruiser (main objective) -_- And the guns is not precise It's a shotgun obviously
She's similar to the Omaha class cruisers because they doesn't have to expose her sides and citadels. But the Omaha class has 10 -12 guns, and 6-12 torpedoes. It would be cool if there was a cruiser that doesn't have to expose her side and citadel to strike with all her might, but has no aft guns, but torpedoes. But the Omaha class cruisers are perfect for going nose in. I'd even say that Omaha class cruisers are the best nose in cruisers in the game.
It's ok for people to talk about historical accuracy with this ship but can we please turn our heads to the amazing Russian ships we have in the game.......yes Russia the naval powerhouse......
Well...some are fantasy and those that aren't usually are about ten years newer (by design or built - if they were built) than their same tier counterparts in other trees, often enough meaning post-WWII technology.
NO more money one the premium ships ( and I spend many )! You can not use your XP which you earn whit this ships on your captain with out using again money to convert it, to upgrade his skills, or ales which is the idea to spend money in premium ships!! So no, not any more, I was said to spend some money but not more then what is necessary and whit out risen!!
The French could’ve repaired her, but then decided to scuttle the ship, she was captured by the Italians, but they deemed her beyond repair so they started scrapping her, then in 1944, a few months after the Italians surrendered to the allies, Germany took the ship and continued scrapping her until she was no more
Richelieu class BB was designed for hunting Littorio and Bismarck class. Littorio class BB was designed for hunting Dunkerque class. Dunkerque class was designed for Deutschland class panzerschieff.
New Mexico has issues with the underside protection of her main guns. The turret underbellies and barbettes are very poorly-armored, and if a shell bounces off the deck and goes straight through one of those places you will lose that gun.
In real life, the Dunkerque's turrets had an armored bulkhead down the middle, making it almost impossible for a single shell to knock out the entire turret. Pity that's not true in the game.
some boats in the italian navy the herman navy and some Boats like Emile Bertin half of the class Galissonnière and class fantasque and the class Richelieu 70 per 100 og the french navy are sink !
What a waste of metal and stuff the dunkerqe was destroyed by its own allies when it could have helped destroyed many ships or even help destroy Bismarck
I don;t think ppl really want more glass armours and shit guns,i wonder who build the BB's for them,still England? Oh and lets not forget,if cruisers are from the 50's and 70's when will the BB's be from,90's?
Just like in real life , the Dunkerque is horrible. Historically the guns ware horrific,when you fire one of them, the concussion trows the aim of all others because they ware stacked i pairs for 2 next to each other. It was only designed to fight ships like Graff Spee. In game is the same- ultra shit guns, armor that is going to embarrass CLs and the size.... (when you wont speed and guns in front you need to balance it with length (because of the big weight in front and speed needs long streamlined ship)....
Really? Tell that to the Colorado I nuked at near-max range. This ship is like the Nikolai: it doesn't seem that great on paper but for some reason it works really well in practice.
Mainblocks Check you facts. The proposal for countering the Trento class CLs and old Italian bbs was rejected in 1925. The focus was the German Deutschland battlecruisers (pocket battleships). Her armor was designed to counter 280mm guns.
Agreed, poor ship. VERY poor ship. The only reviewer I've seen like it was Aerroon and even he has come out and said he does not recommend anyone buying it.
I've purchased this ship. It's so different that it takes some time to learn how to play it. But when you get there, very fun and very capable. Honestly, too underrated.
I have to say having purchased this I've quite enjoyed it
I want it but cant get it its not up for sell or I can find it.
cant find it.
Possibly still in the tech tree not on the website.

Eugene Oliveros lol that’s funny
No it’s not
Erm, not really, dunkirque would have lost a battle against every British battleship bar the renown and repulse
@@scottwhitley3392 cant you stop talking negative about them ok, its in the past

Dunkerque is good indeed, but what about Richelieu?

Isn't Izumo based of the planned "Super-Yamato" Battleship?

im desperately waiting for the italian navy *.*
I guess they will come after the RN cruisers

I'm waiting for them as well but I imagine they won't come earlier than the second half of next year
I'm waiting for italian tanks
what Russian BBs when glorius RN exists WG add British carriers and BBs first
I'm still waiting for my Italian pizza
"... but the enemy would need imposing main battery guns"
At that very moment, the first thought I had was of Warspite.
4 years later, and I'm a new player who has fallen in love with this ship when I got it for 7 days free. It's the first Premium I've unlocked
What is the purpose of the clock on the superstructure in 2:22? Is it to show the time or the position of the guns for the sailors?
IIrc it's a way to show (in a somewhat discreet manner)other nearby ships you found the right range. But since they got 12 digits they must have doubled as regular clocks during peace time i guess.
"the caliber is modest .... this makes over-penetrations less frequent" => In game It's Overpen number you see the most and not punish a broadside cruiser (main objective) -_-
And the guns is not precise It's a shotgun obviously
french power bros ^^
it doesnt have the shortest reload time, as its tied with fuso, which is the best tier 6 in my opinion
6 years ago…It felt like yesterday this ship was announced wow how times changed 😢
add the italian royal navy please

Against cruisers, yes. Anything bigger and you get "lol penned" from the front.
Enfin le voilà !

You know what ship deamands my attention ? The answer is the great Yamato
Must of been a dunkerqueue to see this ship!
My Nagato salivates when it sees these. Her bow doesn't work so well when I see her ;^)
42 000 T vs 30 500 T you are a litlle player ! you can wait the Richelieu if you are fairplay !
Full AA c'est un monstre. 40 avions abattus hier en une partie :)
i got that ship in battle of war ships game
we need this game on Xbox one/PS4, PLEASE
Sadily naval warfare games do not go well on consoles. The last great one was the battlestations series.
Hello, I'm from the future, you can download this game on consoles now :)
WoWs Legend is already out, have fun
What is the custom flag that comes with the supreme bundle?
This is the emblem of the french city of Toulon.
Ambra vir
Ah cool, thanks. :)
We need more Aussie ships
Prepare your baguettes! Dunkerque is coming to town
It sees you when you oi
He knows when you bonjour
as some one who got this ship during the world of warships blitz event
its a good ship
definitivamente me lo compraré
Gabriel x2
It's ok for people to talk about historical accuracy with this ship but can we please turn our heads to the amazing Russian ships we have in the game.......yes Russia the naval powerhouse......
Well...some are fantasy and those that aren't usually are about ten years newer (by design or built - if they were built) than their same tier counterparts in other trees, often enough meaning post-WWII technology.
I still have to find any of those "amazing russian ships" . All i see from them is a huge citadels, no armor, no mobility and useless guns.
I will agree with you i love my schors she is a beast against dds and cruisers
scousersuk pls this isn't war thunder no need for warthunders op Russian bias to carry over to this game
Its fun with speed but its drawback is the very long reload time on the Control repair as it gets set on fire alot.
I wanted this ship so bad. Needs a few buffs and I'd buy it. Just don't over buff it. A bit more turret HP and 2 sec faster reload.
Nice and instructive video thx
Why in Blitz this thing is higher than tier 6
Edit: it’s the top tier so I must have forgot things
"There's also a pleasant bonus." What, the effing clock?
AthallahPlays28 It's the clock okay. Dream.
Super
Do an Armada of USS Iowa
If you know how to work and play a battleship. You will do good. It can out speed a New Mexico , good accuracy and good armor.
NO more money one the premium ships ( and I spend many )! You can not use your XP which you earn whit this ships on your captain with out using again money to convert it, to upgrade his skills, or ales which is the idea to spend money in premium ships!! So no, not any more, I was said to spend some money but not more then what is necessary and whit out risen!!
Graceful French Bow hahahaha lol xD
I've always wondered why didn't the allied just insert a crew via airborne and take the ship?
Who needs to have you citadel hit when you can just have Dunkerque with 8 guns in, Izumo with gigantic guns, or Nelson
why there is no submarine in world of worldship?
Alif Sarder because those are ships... and they are op
ok nice...but when the italians?
Did Dunkerque recover from the attack, and if so, did she ever return to service again?
The French could’ve repaired her, but then decided to scuttle the ship, she was captured by the Italians, but they deemed her beyond repair so they started scrapping her, then in 1944, a few months after the Italians surrendered to the allies, Germany took the ship and continued scrapping her until she was no more
She was desogn for fight the italians...not germans ones -_-
nice grammar
She was designed to fight the German duechestland class pocket battleships.
Mainblocks I don't know if this could compete with the Roma...
Richelieu class BB was designed for hunting Littorio and Bismarck class.
Littorio class BB was designed for hunting Dunkerque class.
Dunkerque class was designed for Deutschland class panzerschieff.
hahahah imagine those 2 front turrets blow up at the 16th minute of a game, and it can happen for example in a new mexico

the drunkenqueen
France have a strange habitude : take the heavy for make middle.
wat?
Remember bois when guns are gone time to be a homing torpedo
Its not the only BB with figher and Fuso and Bayern, i think have better rate of fire.
Hei!How to sell a ship in the game???
Why didn't the British capture it?!?
the brits were really "great" allies when it comes to the french battle ships...
I just sink dunkerque with ijn zao's torpedoes 😂after watching this vidoe
I like that french dunkerque battleship!!!!! But i do lost my dunkerque battleship!!!!!
okay it makes me want to buy dunkerque right now lol.... Shes my Best ship on AL so hmm I need to buy it hahaha
When you think what happended to the french navy....
some boats in the italian navy the herman navy and some Boats like Emile Bertin half of the class Galissonnière and class fantasque and the class Richelieu 70 per 100 og the french navy are sink !
Dunkerque have quad 330mm gun turrets
I just got the dunkerque like an hour ago lol
Gg jg yahh dah trbukti keren nih kpal

All or nothing
its as shitty as an Izumo but in a lower tier,no thx.
