  • Following my first impressions video on HMS Plymouth, I took the ship out for more extensive testing. My original thought was, "this ship seems strong." Yeah. I didn't know the half of it after that first game. This ship is nuts, and I think its placement at Tier 7 speaks to a wider issue in this game.

      It's better than having a situation like Weimar where it took Minotaur to beat its AP dpm and stayed at t6 where it could bully all of those juicy 21kt farms I mean battleships. If a ship could get a buff then it should be able to be nerfed. Just because its premium doesn't mean it should be immune to change. Especially since Weimar at t6 had Munchen to compete with and no one complains about Munchen's DPM where a 7 to 8 second reload would have put its DPM at a level comparable to Munchen. Its been said by the CMs that certain ships like Benham, Somers, and Plymouth weren't all that great in their PC tiers and I guess Legends is a fair way to try and rebalance that. But with that said some obvious changes should have been standard like a 8s Weimar and a t8 Plymouth and it absolutely baffles me that as a player these seemingly obviously easy decisions were passed over.

    Not going to say I didn’t see the writing on the walls when they announced the new stance on adding the disclaimer that they would be more inclined to adjust new over performing premium ships. I see this as the new norm, from what I’ve heard it’s already common practice on pc, release new op ship so that it’s sales are boosted by people wanting to play an op ship, and then after it’s been put a few months and sales fall off they balance it and then rinse repeat with something else.

    On the topic of Iowa feeling jarring at its line, all they need to do is swap Kansas and Iowa in the line and bam fixed. They're the same tier and would make so much more since. Also there should of been 8-9 tiers to start and legendary should have been PCs super ships without the broken gimmicks. Would of been easier honestly, have a wider variety of ships and so on. Plus now if they wanna add the super ships they'd be in legendary and feel to strong like Jean Bart at tier 7does. The only one I'd ever see them change would be the first one I mentioned but they prob won't due to ppl grinding the line blah blah blah, as if a BB main isn't already grinding both lines already, just swap em and make it feel less jarring and actually be a more fast BB line and a dreadnaught line.

    From what I've seen people are too trigger happy right now, 8/10 times I've seen a Plymouth (whether on my team or the other team) it's been deleted within the first three minutes, the remaining two are a mixed bag of overly cautious or knowing how to play the ship.
    She's a bigger badder Fiji and I see enough people mess up playing that to know they can't figure out the bigger sister. Radar is only viable if you're divisioned up or have a lot of faith in your blueberry destroyers (I guess the right circumstances on a heavy island map works too, but defeats the point of a stealth radar half the time).
    Plymouth is great at tearing holes in broadside ships but gets more technical the moment they start angling (as with any RN light cruiser), I wouldn't call her OP, but capable. I could see her being moved up to tier 8 and be fine with that, but my main gripe is with how sad Belfast '43 looks in comparison (the buff was needed, but I'm not sure it was enough considering Plymouth's base reload is better than a reload focused B43).
    I'd hate to see this ship at L tier as she doesn't really compare to Minotaur in any aspect other than likelihood of getting dev struck. Give Des Moines her radar back and have Plymouth take after the Edinburgh's and you got yourself a "counter play" situation as well.

      Apparently people in the comments here disagree with me. I understand if people want to say it’s not OP. Fair enough. But its DPM and potential for a 40s stealth radar catapults it above literally any other T7 cruiser in the game, at least in my mind. It should be at a higher tier.

      It’s simple to understand. The Plymouth and other ships were already in work prior to them adding T8. It makes sense on the business side because they would not lose out on time and resources to redo these projects after deciding to add T8. I think T8 was a major after thought that was suddenly added when they just could no longer balance PC T10 & T9 into the Legendary format at T7. The addition of T8 makes it easier for them now. You will probably continue to see the same questionable additions for another 4-6 months until they get it all sorted out now when the previous to T8 projects are implemented into the game. As far as the legal clause put onto some T7 premiums already, every company has to protect themselves in the event of possible changes. With virtual purchases, every consumer has to know and understand that when you purchase these items, there is already a financial loss due to the game will end eventually and changes can occur, especially for balance. Sorry, but no sympathy here if you purchased something virtual based on a review, feeling it would make you a stronger player, historical value, and / or a knee jerk reaction. I personally quit buying boats because there are so many now, many just feel the same to the play style I like. I don’t play those that often that don’t play well to my style. It seems pointless anymore. The only thing I don’t like about virtual purchases is the fact you cannot return the item within a short period of time if the purchase does not meet you expectations. That is the change I would like to see.

That republic at the start of this video was sailing broadside, any rapid fire ship would have done the same to it, be in Mainz, mino, Worcester etc. You sneeze at the Plymouth and it explodes. I’ve seen plenty of them since launch and nearly all of them are gone inside of 5 minutes. The one that did really well was a game with TommyBoy (cc) and he somehow survived with a slither of health and scored around 2900xp in that match. I have no issues with this ship, if they were to nerf it, I’m thinking simply add 1 second to reload even then I dont think it needs it.

    Personally, I agree it's a little too strong for T7. It's a superior Fiji with 50% faster reload and 25% more guns, only a tier higher, plus radar. I think WG had planned to sell it as a premium, but weren't willing to sell as a T8 premium. So we end up with what is effectively a T8 sold as a T7. WG left it open with the new "we are allowed to nerf premiums" disclaimer. But I do feel it's a problem of their own making.

    I agree that the ship is too strong for its tier. Just has too many strong points to justify her current placement at tier 7. I don't think however that she needs to go up to legendary tier. Sure, she's tier 10 on PC but she's a mediocre tier 10 at best and doesn't come close to the Minotaur in raw dpm. She's a Town class cruiser- of which we have 3 others in the game. The Belfast sits nicely at tier 6, the Belfast '43 and Edinburgh at tier 7, and then this one which is stronger than '43 and Edinburgh should be bumped up to tier 8. I feel she would slot perfectly into tier 8 almost exactly how she is- give her just a tad more health or gun range and tier 8 would have another good addition.

    Yeah sure her dpm is high but the price for that is being really squishy where she can be overmatched in every angle and don't forget about anti air guns, they aren't really good. Even at stern or bow angle her citadel can be accessed by heavy cruisers and battleships. So I think she fits fine as she is on tier 7. Also going for stealth radar built is too risky for Plymouth so most of the players will go for smoke.

    Does anyone else agree that Cruisers are moving from being DD hunters to being BB hunters? So many games I have played lately the Cruisers just sit back behind Islands spamming the BB's and the BB's are caught between sitting back and getting smashed or moving up to get to the Cruisers and then getting slammed with Torps. The balance of the game is drifting to an arms race - your opponent buys a better ship so you need to buy a better ship to counter. And it's working - just look at how many of the buy outright ships are in game right now. Granted there are some really good players who can make your life misery with whatever they are playing. But in general the balance of the game is off. I played a game recently with 8 Shima's - there was at one point 120 torp's flying around - I was the last one standing on my team (in a BB) versus 3 DD's - lasted about 2 minutes dodging torp's from invisible DD's. And not many of the games I have played recently have gone down to the wire - it's usually 6 vs 1 at the end. Not really enjoying the game anymore. Just plain greed from the developers.

    I had thought that Plymouth was going to be a T8 ship, but it's not OP with my aggressive playstyle. I use it to hunt destroyers and she works well for that. Of course it is often the case that my teammates don't share my zeal for combat and I'm generally blapped before the end of the match, but if I get 'dem DDs sunk that's fine by me. Gets pretty old hearing that any good ship is OP...some ships should be better than others as is the case irl. Love the channel but disagree with you on this one...enjoyed watching!

    I feel disappointed to be honest, 2 very unique tier X ships, with it own gimmicks (Elbing and Republique) turn into tier VIII, and worst of all, made into premiums wich means they will not return to the game for a long time
    And the same goes to the Plymouth

    It's funny to see a T10 in the PC version be a T7 on console. I can understand it being super op in console as in PC in the right hands right game mode it is op at T10 on PC.

Survivability is a joke, stops slower than your average kurfurst, horrible guns angles, AP only means no DOT damage and once the enemy bows in you are screwed. So OP that your average BB main deletes 90% of your HP while you are running away.....on PC belfast makes plymouth its bitch.

      I mean the ship is definitely OP. 1st of all no T6 should ever get matched up against this. At T7 it has best DPM, best concealment, best utility (strongest radar and ability to hunt DDs, 10km torps), although you have paper armor if you give broadside to BBs they will just overpen. Compare it to ships that have been nerfed (Cleveland, Mainz, Witchita) and you'll see that those ships lack in one or more of the areas the Plymouth excels.

    • @questionable-06
      @questionable-06 Год назад +2

      @@SwiperNoSwiping458 yet in battle they still out do her 9 times out of 10, like i stated, stats are good on paper, in match she is alot differant and ITS DEPENDS ON THE PLAYER. She gets overpenned due to the RNG of a ship and the shell hitting too high, you arent gonna hit exactly where you aim 100% of the time, thats how the game works. She is fine in her current state, just watch as more ships come in and easily out do her and demolish her. Only time will tell.

  • @sledge1swede654
    @sledge1swede654 Год назад +1

    I do not agree with you on this at all.Yes it can in some situations seems strong but compared to Mainz or Belfast 43 it has not the speed rudder or armor to deal with them consistanley.16 guns on some builds will be powerfull but any hit from a BB you are almost gone everytime.What bothers me more is this first week extensiv OP discussions it hurts more then give accurate answer to the question over time.WG do not know how to handle balance in the game because they do not play the ships and to be very clear they only choose supertesters that are scared shitless of stating anything wrong so in no way give them stats to correct and to be fair to the supertesters I found when I was one at WOT console WG do not pay attention to the actuall findings anyway so all in all .A good ship but not OP.One example of the crisis we are in with the game is the Kleber VS Shimakaze debackle there you have a clear example of the balance in game.Moreover the game is 3 year in developmeant and the buggs are still all over the place why that is not talked about on every RUclips channel is beyond my understanding all is about OP or UP that is crazy.I respect you Xarkun I watch your content all the time you are reasonable and doing a good choice mostley but this time the only thing I agree upon is that Tier VIII would be a better place but then it needs better armor.BTW Des Moines did not deserve a nerf.Legendary balance is all over the place so is Tier VIII.

  • @moosiedoom1310
    @moosiedoom1310 Год назад +2

    I think at minimum, Plymouth should be Tier 8, although there is certainly a good argument to be made that it should be Legendary Tier. I see no justification for it being T7. It should be remembered that as a T7 ship, it will regularly face T6 ships, which is ridiculous.

  • @hatchetfish7888
    @hatchetfish7888 Год назад

    I can practically sense your frustration when you start doing the forced back and forth comparisons between Legends and PC. When WG fails at basic balancing and thus tier placement when they introduce a ship to Legends, by all means call them out. But your argument would be stronger if it focused on the issues it causes in the Legends environment alone instead of getting twisted up with largely irrelevant PC comparisons. Like it or not, WG created a separation between the games from the start to give themselves room to manage Legends as it's own entity. How a ship fits in the PC world really doesn't matter here.

    Who will pay 60€ for a class 8 Tier?
    its easier toll sell a super tier 7 ship than an average tier 8 ship. I have bought it for that reason. But if they move it to tear 8 I will never buy a ship again outside the campaign. Because I see that is marketing sales strategy by cheating player and their money. And I asume thos guys that make this kind of videos, they all work for woe legends

    • @Xarkun

      This isn’t a rant. This is me wondering along why a light cruiser with 16 guns that can reload in 4.7s and also has a 9.9km radar with a 40s duration is at T7. None of the other comparable light cruisers at T7 have that kind of firepower or utility. You can disagree with that if you want, but I’m not sure how much “better” I can do beyond telling you exactly why I think this ship makes no sense at its tier.

  • @CallsItLikeISeizeIts
    @CallsItLikeISeizeIts Год назад

    I don’t buy any nerfable ship, WG can FThemselevs. No need to balance squat, there is always things better or worse , otherwise give all the same ship with same setup for free. If we had a racing game with Ferraris and corvettes, no one would be saying nerf this and that. Easy tell: you do not see ALL players at top tier ALL using SAME ship, nor do you see ship X consistently at top,of leaderboard. So stop,saying OP and Nerf. I never see every ship the same in every game form every player. If ship that good, all would have it, but they don’t and those that have it do not place in top slots every game. The variable in the loop is the skill of the player, the ship is the same across the board, the player is the variable. So if you a winner, it’s YOU. iF you a loser, it’s YOU, not the ship. No,one wins a battle cause of OP weapons, it’s the soldier who makes the difference,they all,using exact same weapon. I never heard anyone in Division or Destiny ever say the words OP or nerf, never. Besides It haven’t been out long enuff to build up usable data to analyze anyway, need 6-12 months, the you need to analyze each Players data, do the suck or good over alll, are they better in one ship than another, are they consistently good or bad yadda yadda. How about we play with what we got and the natural order will sort it self out. I challenge all CC to Div up in same ship with same build and commander and hav the good players get worst ships and worst players get best ships and play 20 games, then crunch the numbers, do it live and get you will break records , go on, I dare ya 😊

    WG strategy: Release OP ship, let CCs give glowing reviews, let lots of suckers shell put $80 for it, let it run for 2 updates, then either promote to higher tier or nerf back to balance. Rinse and repeat. Works like a charm.
