And 3.5km is not that great, only 1.5 better than assured detection. Or only .5km better if someone has the third mod slot filled with the thingy that I can't remember the name of.
It’s a fine sonar lol. It’s a pure damage/gunboat version of Jutland/lightning, so it makes sense to make the sonar a bit weaker. The fact it gets a sonar at all still is awesome, and it’s not that much worse range wise than Daring/Jutland. It’ll be a really fun damage farmer and cap contester
I'm looking forward to playing all of these new skiffs. I noticed many games with crossplay off have CV'S in them. It's easy pickings for them because they have less AA to deal with.
6:30 who wouldve guessed an ap only ship does better against broadsides. Jk nice showcase (also for anyone wondering i thing wg confirmed this ship will be available for steel)
they may allow players to turn off cross-play. but they could allow us to deny being drawn into those matches. I had a t8/LT match rigged because of a french clan. 4 *** played with 2 divs of 2 and turned off crossplay. They ended up in 2 different teams. I had 2 cruisers on my team, their friends had 2 dd's for the reds. my teammates rushed through the middle on 2 brothers and died as soon as they got out of the valley ... its fun to instantly be down 2 ships. It was 5-8 players per team, I cant remember. we won a very close match and none of those 4 got good exp 🤣
I don't know why there is the crossplay switch at all. Asymmetric battles seem to be getting more common as well. Surely, there are enough players to balance the teams with the same number of ships of each type on opposing teams. It is the first week and 10% of my games have either mismatch ship balance or one side with all of the divs. It makes me wonder if they have been playing with the matchmaker to try and balance something else.
I don't mind it. If it mixes up the game play, it is good for me. There are far more frustrating issues in this game, like dd players who sit at the back of the map spamming torps while the rest of the team is left blind...
From what I hear, Sony requires the crossplay to be toggled off but there are other options to not ruin the game for everyone else. -only match people that have the setting turned on, make em wait, f@&$ em -have a setting inside the settings, that most people won’t realize is there, that blocks getting matched with anything less than 9v9 -remove it for Xbox players (all that matters to me)
I like British destroyers, it's where I cut my teeth but, I dunno Ronmeister? This seems a bit weak and requires a lot of modified playstyle getting this to work. I will probably rent it and try it... seeing is believing. Great video thanks for the look.
I mean, as long as you’re getting wide angle or broadside targets, you’ll have some of the highest dpm for destroyers. Combined with a huge HP pool and heals, you’re pretty menacing.
This boat is pretty bad and needs a buff. It has the same AP DPM as Friesland, but a tier higher. They should fix the arming threshold of the AP so that it can arm on broadside destroyers, otherwise the ship just has too many drawbacks for little benefit over many of the other gunboats at the tier.
Real chads use rather be torchin on Druid
IM NOT A REAL BOY
Druid has worse sonar than Icarus...😂 3.2 km ship detection is literally worse than the 3.5km of the tier 5.
And 3.5km is not that great, only 1.5 better than assured detection. Or only .5km better if someone has the third mod slot filled with the thingy that I can't remember the name of.
Idk what the hell we're they thinking, even if it is in testing🤦♂️

@@abyss7539 you must be a German DD enjoyer
@@CalebRemastered Not in particular, the main line is relatively weak. But I love the British ones, and other sonar DDs are pretty fun

Yet we will still see players shoot bow in targets without re-positioning
@@whereruaaron then complain the ship is bad, cant wait buddy, cant wait lol
What did we record this in a fricken shipping container?
IM TRAPPED IN MY BATHROOM HELPPPPPP

100000% And we have suggested it to them in the past, but they said there's noting they can do

I hate those small lobbies
We all do

Smacked a tashkent yesterday with my new plymouth. 15k in one salvo. 15 full pens. Hilarious but the plymouth is sooooooo squishy
Do you think this will be a campaign ship or steel ship?
Probably a steel ship
They confirmed its a steel ship
They said in a blog post it will be steel but nothing is 100% yet
its sonar so sucks so much i think they'll make it Campaign although i want navarin as a Campaign ship
Whenever i play on console i turn the matchmaking off.
My sanity levels are doing better since then
Play navarin
Great video ron
She will be next! I love her

Don't turn off crossplay. Play Arcade instead. 5v5, ten minute game, lots of fun.
Exactly
11:08 well then maybe you should turn crossplay off if you dont like crossplay 😂
Do you think there's worth getting the Baltimore or $15?
2nd
LETS GOOOO
Who cares about 3.2 ship detection? Dang I’ll just use the 3km auto detection perk geez lame!
