This is a very slow paced arcade style shooting game, so basically you get a lot of times to do some mind games with your enemy. Basic tactics also involves preserving HP and using it gradually to gain damage scores vs enemy. Edited July 29, 2017 by icy_phoenix Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
13 Smokeyr867 Member 27 posts 1,103 battles Report post #5 Posted July 29, 2017 My first aim is to deal more damage than I take, and if I see a cheap kill for the asking, well taking any gun out of the game is good:) I'm playing US DD's at the moment, playing them like a scout, it's not always succesful but I think I'm helping out the team.

Building them to suit your nation and class can turn the battle for you. the usndd is king of the caps and bullies contenders off caps though firepower. Most nations dd's have the odd ordinary performer in the line but the Americans are consistent all the way through. You are pretty much untouchable when capping as long as you are prepared to torpedobeat. Once you hit the tier 8 territory where radar can get you it gets a bit more sporty.
