When they nerf the Z-52…the tier 8 Loushun becomes the best DD in the game. The Z-52 somewhat countered all DD’s…but never overpowered them. I hope they don’t nerf the guns.
If you want to know why WG's buffing and balancing seems almost random it's because it essentially is most of the time, not always. They balance primary off of statistical "spreadsheets" (a really lazy and imprecise approach imo) which can be very misleading. Omaha, for example, is a powerful ship at t4, even overall. It can beat almost anything at it's tier when played right. But most people don't play it right, sail out broadside, and get nuked in the first 5 minutes and often think the ship must suck and don't play it or pay to bypass it. So, on paper, Omaha looks balanced or even on the weaker side statistically when it's actually strong it's just played poorly, because WG makes almost no effort to teach people how to play ships like that. So, staticially, you can have ships that are overpowered but played poorly or you can have ships that need a buff but enough people play it that it looks balanced or you can have ships that are balanced but for some reason the stats are skewed on way or the other which is why WG acts confused when the community, who are actually paying these ships everyday, complaining about it being under or overpowered when everything looks hunkydory on average on the spreadsheets. A lot of the problem is WG doesn't play their own game. And the few times I've seen people at WG playing they really aren't very good at it, so they don't really have much of a clue what's going on. That's what happens when you're really just in it for the money.
Colombo nerf is primarily from prima donna's who keep sailing broadside and deservedly keep getting punished by the 16 guns which decimate them. Its one of the few BBs which can properly punish such risky & potato behavior for a change. Brisbane buff is a slap in the face just like an old buff to the Colbert. The current state of the game with all the crate p0rn has been a decrease of MM quality with insane loss / win streaks which just showcases how the high tier battles have come a joke. Close battles are far & few in between, but one sided stomps - especially at high tier - are the new "norm". Thanks for your video. :)
Pretty certain I don't have any of those ships, so this round of nerfs and buffs don't bother me much. I feel like WG only does most of these anyhow just to prove to players that they actually Do Something. :) I approve of More Steel. Then, I've just finished Epic'ing all the ships I have currently have that can be, so can't complainmuch. The only Steel ship I'd really like would be Murmansk - already have Omaha, Marblehead and Rattlehead, so want to complete the set. #### the camos, btw. Suspect that WG might be heading a direction where Steel becomes like Doubloons - something that you can earn in dribs'n'drabs but, if you want them in any real quantity, you'll have to buy them. That's my suspicion, anyhow.. I'd hold out for much more reasonable prices on the Crafting Station, because what's there is idiotically insane or vice versa. Those prices could be cut by 75%, and STILL be over-the-top, imo.
I don't own the Colombo, so I have no experience with the gameplay - only watching others play it here on YT and playing against it in game. I do know a lot of creators here on YT have called it out as being OP and have warned of incoming nerfs to it for quite a while. In my own experience playing against it in game, I never really found it to be OP. Have I gotten my butt kicked by it? Sure, but that doesn't mean it's OP... it just means I put myself into a poor position and got smacked for it. Z-52 is another ship that's been called out by quite a few creators as being too good and to expect a nerf. Another ship I don't currently own, so I can't speak from any experience playing it. Vermont is called "The Brick" for a reason. It's big and it's slow. It's the ultimate expression of the USN dreadnaught design. Speed wouldn't really be an appropriate buff. She's only half a knot slower than the Minnesota, but she's carrying 12 18" guns, not the 16" found on the Minnesota. Her AP shells hit for 14200, which is considerably less than either the Ohio or the Georgia (both have AP shells that hit for 15.7k), but because she's got 12 of those guns, her alpha strike is way higher than either the Georgia or Ohio at over 170k. Maybe they'll equalize the AP shell damage from her 18" guns to that of the other two. I think that's the way they should go. Sure, you've got absurd alpha strike potential, but you pay for it by being a big, slow target with a long reload. That'd be my choice for a buff to her. Alternatively, they could reduce her reload speed a bit. 36 seconds is pretty long, but there are plenty of commanders, inspirations and skills that allow you to lower it. Though, if you compare to the Georgia and Ohio - 26 and 27.5 seconds respectively - she's already got the lowest per-barrel reload time: 3 seconds per barrel for VT, 3.43 for OH and 4.3 for GA. Florida? People actually play tier 5? Kidding... California, Warspite, Hyuga are typically my go-to BBs at T5. I don't own the Florida.
How about the devs fix German BBs shitty guns. Pen angles are hot garbage and even at point blank my shells still bounce and shatter EVEN WHEN I can actually manage to hit the F’ing target. 🎯
The colombo is a problem? Since when doesnt it usually get toreped or plane harrassed? I may not be a bb main but i dont think its broken to need a nerf.
It's a real shame to see Colombo and Z52 getting nerfed. Yeah they're good ships but WG's numbers are skewed bc these are being played by more experienced players. Glad to see Florida getting buffed though...really hope it's improved reload🤞
I'v been playing almost from the start. And I can tell you the game is just not good now. WG are destroying it with their nonsense. Every time a ship plays well they nerf it. I'm at the stage where I don't really enjoy it now. The carriers were the start of the decline.
@@Pure-Minty yeah I don't enjoy playing Carriers and I don't like nerfs but I've been playing since launch and still love the game, play at least a few battles every day
I stopped playing, I only login to keep my account active, the ships we want are too expensive and the trash ships missions are too long and complex for my taste.
Z-52 will get her sonar range nerfed, what else? Main guns reload time increase, shells damage decrease? They are already pretty mediocre. So long sonar, byebye.
@@DaFreshPotato Hang in hell screw that game leave it and play any other game besides that and you'll be a ton happier. Think about all of the games you could have bought with the amount of money you've spent on either campaign ships or premium ships alone. Why support Belarus right now anyhow they're about to get crushed by Russia and Wargaming is from Belarus, let those bastards go bankrupt they've ripped off enough people over the years stop being their victims!
@@177SCmaro Who gives a sh*t it's not a damn e-sport you're not getting paid to play so why's it matter? I know if others play good it makes you seem better a confidence booster but it doesn't work like that the game is a FREE TO PLAY GAME so there should be NO EXPECTATION of others being pros at it calm down frog tits.
Maybe but imo cruisers are the ship type that is probably played the worse, but not by much. It's more accurate to say most of the player base doesn't know how to play the game.
Wargaming doesn't value any of the players as "people" so I don't see how you can return to that game when there are so many better games out there to play! You'd be better off playing Aliens dark descent which IS a good game despite what people try to say but honestly liking wows legends is like being fond over a polished turd. But again Wargaming's games only appeal to a certain target audience which is usually dumb people so perhaps that's why you return to it.......

Stingy steel rant 😡 9:09
I'm a BB main and I'm glad the Colombo is going to get nerfed it is way to strong as is
Wow I had no idea people actually still played legendary

I have been working on the Colombo for weeks. And now they are going to Nerf it not long before I get it. This game is shocking

Guessing I'm gonna have to scrape off all the barnacles off the florida.
I'm playing with Colombo and enjoying. It's not good at all what they planning to do with Colombo, it's just sad. Thanks for video

Florida? People actually play tier 5? Kidding... California, Warspite, Hyuga are typically my go-to BBs at T5. I don't own the Florida.
How about the devs fix German BBs shitty guns. Pen angles are hot garbage and even at point blank my shells still bounce and shatter EVEN WHEN I can actually manage to hit the F’ing target. 🎯
They’re just doing random stuff at this point. Carrier BB and now nurf the Colombo
The colombo is a problem? Since when doesnt it usually get toreped or plane harrassed? I may not be a bb main but i dont think its broken to need a nerf.
I just used my steel this week to get the salem.....fckmylife!
me still waiting for pommern buff
But Colbert needed a buff, and Worcester is fine🙃
How about a buff to Italian main line battleships. Italian tech tree BB don't get better as go up line.

100% Brisbane doesn't need a buff. And Colombo nerf wtf .
I think Brisbane needs a buff no reason to play it over the minotaur
All we need is a shimakaze buff 💪🏽
Lol.. no way
I stopped playing, I only login to keep my account active, the ships we want are too expensive and the trash ships missions are too long and complex for my taste.

who are these people you ask requesting the Columbo nerf? Spartan for one!
There's a difference between saying the ship is overpowered in content then literally asking wargaming for a nerf.
They are doing this because of Karen players, who have no idea how to play this game .
I'm so tired of this game, man.
Hang in there
