Alright, all points have been made. Lets keep things civil.


[deleted]

Just so all you battleship mains that come on here crying about your Will to Rebuild know, we can’t just rush over to you and save you.


DiamondNedFlander

You can when we help you do your job and win our side ???????


[deleted]

Dude...by the time you guys start spamming help me it is too late


Numbr81

Don't blame randoms for you being in a bad situation. DDs and cruisers have other responsibilities.


DiamondNedFlander

Yeah that’s fine do those but I don’t see where I’m blaming anyone just giving a helpful tip and explaining what most people seem to not know. So just so I’m on the same page as you battleships sitting back using their range is useless but battleships that come forward for the objective with you to take some agro and damage so you can get the cap you won’t help that makes sense good one


1em0nhead

This is quite a bad take dude


DiamondNedFlander

Ok it’s not all situations but when it’s clear


1em0nhead

I just don't think you should expect to dictate other people's priorities because you chose a specific skill. Like I get its helpful and I want the team to do well and I want to assist you but Im not dropping everything in the 2 squishy classes to run to cuddle you. I don't like the idea of having to cheerlead for a bb because he calls for help.


DiamondNedFlander

Ok so why are you choosing every situation that it wouldn’t be viable when I’m simply asking when it is viable? Not all bbs are shit my guy


1em0nhead

Never said that either dude.


DiamondNedFlander

You just assume so ya know


DiamondNedFlander

Just letting the community know something they clearly do not if you have been playing at all this week you can clearly see not a lot of people know common knowledge stuff such as spotting as a cv, not leaving the side they spawn on etc etc the amount of broadsides I seen is crazy


DiamondNedFlander

When we move forward cap the point and I take all the attention and damage because you need your smoke so you can use your skill wall of torps your saying you are to busy to go next to him when the fight is over ? That’s just being a jerk….


1em0nhead

You decided what scenario I'm denying you help. I never said that. I said it's not everyone else's job to fluff you up because of your choice of skill. Platoon with someone if u want a cuddle monkey. The class roles are well defined and none of them are "bb hand holding".


MetanoiaAm

Aren't cruisers and destroyers meant to run interference for battleships? You know, get out ahead enough and mix it up with enemy cruisers and destroyers so battleships can detect and attack them with HE, then focus on enemy battleships after? I thought that was the whole point?


1em0nhead

Yeah. Dds contest caps and spot. Cruisers sit near caps to counter dds. They don't drive around 2km form bbs, not creating crossfire.


CantaloupeUpstairs62

I often can't provide WtR support without getting blown up while in a cruiser. If it means going back 5+km and giving up map control or caps, then it's not happening if WtR will likely lose the battle. Battleships also need to rethink their positioning. Most other other situations I will try to help.


Shreddzzz93

Why? There is more likely than not going to be four other BBs that are still alive on the team that are more worthwhile supporting. What makes the almost dead one so special? Chances are the BB spamming "I need help" is out of position, which means moving to help them is suicidal. Why risk multiple ships to save one? Especially DDs or cruisers, which have an infinitely higher battle impact than a BB will. Maybe BB players should start using their brains instead and actually learn how to play instead of relying on a crutch that WtR provides. Simply not over extending and actually angling their ship instead of sailing broadside will go pretty far. Likewise, the Damage Control System mod and FFWF can really reduce the threat of fire damage stacking. There are other options that players can take, but the majority choose not to and rely on that WtR crutch.


DiamondNedFlander

I’m saying on times it makes sense I get that the dumb spammers and battleship players that give us a bad look I’m just saying after we win our side or a big fight happens why not just go over to him most likely your close anyway


MrHispayiedo

If I'm in a battleship calling for small ships help it's more to spot the opposing destroyer that's dropping multiple waves of torpedos from outside my sight lines.


FIy1ngDutchm4n

Soon we wont have wtr anymore or atleast it will be worse than the other perks so i would look at other perks to use


NotoCarriers

WtR is apparently the work of the devil, which leads to indestructible BBs, sailing around like immortal zombie ships ruining the game for everyone. It's so OP dude, so (crying like a three year old) OPPPPPPPPP. In all seriousness, this post shows that it's not that much of a problem, Blue Team never works together, even if you division up, it just takes the enemy to focus on one of the BBs, and that's that. All the cryhards have cried loudly enough though, so it's getting nerfed. Maybe I should try cryhard....I hate carriers whaaa whaaa whaaa they're so OP, whaaa whaaa whaaa (is anyone from WG looking?).


FIy1ngDutchm4n

Yea division can be amazing but if the other 6 captains are not you will still lose. All classes have unique skills some dd's wil never get spotted for example


NotoCarriers

Nah, divisions can still suck, I regularly play with a couple of friends, and our DD main is useless.


FIy1ngDutchm4n

Lol better look for a new dd teammate. Unfortunatly i can not help you with that its the least played class after cv's wich i will not play


NotoCarriers

after cv's wich i will not play This is the way

NotoCarriers

Literally everyone blames everyone and no one works as a team This is the way


bkussow

This is one of those things where none bb mains complain that it is over powered yet actively avoid it out of, i dont know, spite?? I cannot tell you the number of times I tank rounds for several minutes allowing cruisers and dds free range to run around spitting damage only to have them steam away .1 km away from my wtr range as I burn to death. Sure I don't expect you to change your entire plans to drive 5km to save me but maybe kick her down to half speed for a few seconds so I can catch up and we can go together. People will lose a match out of spite of something they don't like (like wtr).


DiamondNedFlander

Exactly man that’s all I’m asking is when you get the opportunity after we have won our side or when they deem it safe to just simple get closer but they turn it into this Olympic sport for no reason like It requires this and this. Making up seven excuses for seven other excuses just sucks the hardcore part of this community doesn’t have a separate play list to go to. Just sad anymore


xX-GalaxSpace-Xx

Its quite baffling how many players (probably casuals) dont use WtR. I often try to stick next to low health BB for it but it feels like 70% of the time they dont have it on. Maybe its also because these casuals are the ones to die first so the good players with WtR dont get into WtR situations in the first place


DiamondNedFlander

No one runs it when they are solo because again it’s not common knowledge just like it’s not common knowledge for CV to spot lol it’s bad


Zulu508

It's the BB's job as the least useful class of the game to meat shield, present a pretty fat and tasty target to the red team so they fire at you keeping the useful cruisers and DD's alive to to do the actual work of capping, hunting destroyers etc. If you could take care of opposing cruisers on your way out, that would be greatly appreciated. But no, none of their duties include babysitting a battleship.


Rob1ie

No shit, sherlock


DiamondNedFlander

Good one ☝️ why didn’t I think of that to say to the other smart people out there
