Thought they did a bug fix of armour/AP interaction - could account for your AP issues? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

107 [TWR] Dread_Pirate_BlackHeart Alpha Tester 1,005 posts 3,825 battles Report post #12 Posted November 24, 2015 At first they announced a nerf to AP, that it was now ineffective from 20kms + range, and advised bb captains to use HE (in our BB's, IKR?!). Then they announced the "overpenetration" physics they have applied to the game, "Don't use AP on thinly armoured targets or it won't do any damage", (and again told BB captains to use HE in our BB's IKR?!). Then they applied a patch and AP got completely messed up. Then they applied a fix patch and now it's *"fixed". I gotta wonder if these people have ever played a BB, you know when you aim at a DD because it appears, but you still have 10 seconds of reload, and it disappears so you aim to a BB, but then right when you can fire the dd reappears and is obviously the biggest threat to a BB, so you fire on it....with AP, WHY WHY? because 30 seconds to switch ammo types WITHOUT firing is dumber. * (**)use of the word fixed is used liberally to possibly mean one or many of many other things, or the one thing mentioned. **AP isn't fixed. ***Yet. ***use of the word yet is used liberally to possibly mean it may be *fixed in the future once it is established there are issues with the AP balancing in games. This may take super testers a very long time. After all, it's not as easy as releasing a weak entire German branch. Can't wait for the whole tree.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

30 fuzzjunky Member 248 posts Report post #14 Posted November 24, 2015 (edited) there was some weird changes after 5.1.1 and 5.1.2 the nagato seems similar, but the amagi is almost impossible to get cits, i usually use HE which seems to have much more impact, until i am at medium range then AP. I can be in ocean, have a hit count of 122 [did it last night] and not get one kill or one cit. this would not even have been possible two weeks ago. here's a question, why is the tirpitz much harder to hit?? and why does it stay invisible so much of the time? is it a premium ship thing?

Why is the tirpitz much harder to hit?? - Tirpitz is really fast (easier to maneuver) and have multi layer armor so is very hard to pent and why does it stay invisible so much of the time? - Lower Surface detectability range i guess Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

33 jchen8792 Member 423 posts 3,200 battles Report post #17 Posted November 25, 2015 ^ you also got to account for that section of ships are saturated with damage or not, for I once read an article in here it said that if one section other than the citadel was saturated with damage from fire and stuffs, it would receive less damage than normal. Maybe it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
