00:04:43 Vielen Dank.
00:05:12 Es ist absoluten Laughable. Ich meine, speak for yourself, ich bin definitiv nicht ein Nerd, als Sie sehen. Das ist die beste Sache, die ich schon gesagt habe. Ich kann wirklich nicht auf jemanden in der Office, die nicht. Ich glaube, vielleicht sind die Content-People. Aber sie sind einfach nur Nerds in different ways. Sie sind einfach nur Nerds. Ja.
00:05:42 Hello everybody from Vancouver. From Vancouver Island. Hello, hello. Everyone that walked on the moon was a nerd. You can see that being true. Although they were also pretty badass. Yeah, they were also like literal fighter jocks too back then. Isn't that where most astronauts come from? Is from like actual fighter pilots? I mean, originally, that was like the whole thing with the right stuff and all that, but right now...
00:06:11 I think it's a lot, since it's research-based, a lot of people are going to be doctors. Sure. Who are just perfect physical specimens as well. And then that one who just needs to remind everybody how inadequate they are by being a... Oh, I know exactly who you're talking about. I know exactly who you're talking about. A doctor, like an MD doctor and an astronaut. Because he has to make everybody else look just as bad. I'm surprised he wasn't a lawyer too.
00:06:39 I mean, being a lawyer is not that hard. I'm one. Let's be honest. I'm in the middle of the open water. I'm about to spot whatever's in the cap, I think. Okay, you know what's funny is I can actually just radar. True, true. Oh, it's a Kigeru.
Tokyo Express Operation und Schiffsauswahl
00:06:5400:06:54 I was forgetting what ship I was playing. I was getting ready playing what's it called today, the Tokyo Express, the new operation, to make sure I just don't look really bad at it. I will certainly be looking bad at it. No shame. Alright. I don't really have a good smoke, but I could try to come smoke you up a little bit. No, I'm fine. I'm going to bow and I'm going to back up and get around this rock relative to Kerr first.
00:07:23 Und ich werde ihn aus dem Bounce, auf dem Bounce, auf dem Bounce, auf dem Bounce. Und es hat nicht funktioniert. Das ist gut, ja. Auf der guten Seite, ich denke, die Kurfürst ist wirklich die einzige, die kann man shooten. Es scheint die Alaska und Kurfürst sind wirklich die einzige, die zwei Dinge leften, auf dem Bounce. Ja, ich möchte, weil das, ich möchte, ich möchte, um, zu einem besseren Island, um, vorwärts, weil das wird schneller. Die mehr Expedient Option. Ich denke, ich muss direkt durch den Seahir. Ja, ich bin sicher, wir können nach dem Bounce, auf dem Bounce, auf dem Bounce. Oh, Marcel.
00:07:54 Ich sage es in Marceau. Es ist wie die ganze Enemie-Team ist auf die West-Side hier. Ja, ich habe mich zu be careful, El, weil... Ich kann sehr einfach nur das Existenz, wenn jemand sagt, dass ich in Marceau mache. Ja, ich habe mich zu bemerken. In der meantime, ich werde Cross-Shots auf den Marceau, das ist kind of lustig. Ich meine, wer würde den Des Moines in der Mitte sein sein, in der Mitte der Kappen zu sein? Nicht zu viele Leute.
00:08:21 It goes back to what I say, though. I like pushing ships to their limits on what they can actually do. It's just fun to do things that people don't expect you to do. Especially in Unique Upgrade Des Moines, where you can kind of just get away with it sometimes, the acceleration. Yeah, I 100% expect that Alaska was not thinking he was going to see me on that radar.
00:08:43 Ich denke, ich kann ihn sehr sicher sein. Und er kann ihn als Kurfürst sein. Ja, der Kurfürst ist einfach nur aus dem Westen. Ja. Er ist einfach nur auf der Westen. Ja. Er ist einfach nur in der Nähe. Er ist einfach nur in der Nähe. Er ist einfach nur in der Nähe. Ja. Er ist einfach nur in der Nähe. Lachen. Lachen. Lachen. Lachen. Lachen. Lachen. Lachen. Lachen. Lachen. Lachen.
00:09:21 Ladies and gentlemen, they pay me. Specifically for the humor. Drops not working the last few days and have refreshed. Would recommend making sure that this is the only stream you're watching, that it's not muted. I know if it's muted you can't hear me, but not good advice anyways.
00:09:47 Yeah, valid point. There is a lot of funkiness on the Twitch system, just the way it works. Could always try on licking and re-licking your account, maybe. Alaska decided you had enough. I think I'll just open water the curfers here. It's starting to get pretty low. There's actually nothing else over here. I know.
00:10:08 Ich denke, ich kann... Marceau ist es so, ich kann nicht ganz gut werden. Ich denke, dass ich eigentlich die richtige Spiel für mich hier ist, wahrscheinlich zu gehen und fighten Marceau. Aber ich möchte ein paar Battleship Farming. Ich kann nicht so, dass ich bei Secondarien bin. Ich kann mich auf Pixelhunt, um über und durch die Island zu gehen, weil ich nicht auf der Wand locken kann.
00:10:32 This is the one time where having a spotter plane Des Moines would be. Sometimes it's fun to just be a little trolly. Literally the only time where it would have been helpful to have a spotter plane Des Moines so I could have gotten over that island and gotten that reset. Sigh. Alright.
00:10:52 Such a big fan of these perks. Oh, I did get a hit. Haha, that's funny. Alright, I'm going to help you on this curve first. Get him down. Because then I can push up wide and be a problem with you. Help, he's depth charging us.
00:11:11 Ja, ich werde jetzt einfach mal nach B. Ja, ich werde jetzt einfach mal nach B. Ja, ich werde jetzt einfach mal nach B. Ja, ich werde jetzt einfach mal nach B. Ja, ich werde jetzt einfach mal nach B.
00:11:43 I just got the GK. The Alaska is the closest ship to me, so I think the Marceau has gone. Yeah, he jumped out of there, unfortunately. Oh, oh, a full health Goliath. That's funny. That's a lot of hit points to chew through. Yep, a lot of hit points and a lot of healing. We should finish the Alaska here. Yeah, Alaska's going down.
00:12:13 He is not in a favorable location. I'm going to beach because I'm a good pilot. Ah, come on. Kurvers deserved that kill, for sure. Yeah, totally. Alright, well, I'm just going to farm the Goliath because I can.
00:12:35 Being stuck on the rock, they're actually kind of saving me from a full Goliath salvo. Oh, that is like one of the last things you want to with. The 12, 234 millimeter shells hitting you as a destroyer. They're so devastating. Definitely a suboptimal thing to have happen. I mean, great if you're trying to maximize your adrenaline rush, I guess. Only thing you dislike about the Tokyo Express is not being able to see anything.
00:13:00 Well, that is night time. Welcome to night battles. That was kind of the aesthetic that we're going for. Yeah. You could always try turning the contrast up on your monitor a little bit. I might actually help you make out some of the ship shapes. I decided to be an open water Des Moines, so I might not last long. Ah, you're perfectly fine, only in front of like four ships here. It's a big deal.
00:13:27 Ich meine, die einzige ich wirklich überraschend bin, ist der Alsace. Er hat wirklich die einzige Guns, die kann mich auf diese Range machen. Goliath ist der Auszeit, aber ich würde sagen, dass es eine Safe Distance zu shooten ist. Du hast Auto-Bounce Armour versus den Alsace. Ja, genau. Wunderbar, Wunderbar.
00:13:51 Des Moines ist definitiv nicht ein Schiff, dass du mit gutem Armut hast. Versus bestimmte Battleships, es ist echt ganz schön. Ja, etwas kleiner in 4.0.6 ist ein Problem. Der real scary Schiff ist eigentlich Republik. Ja, Repub ist ein wirklich Spooky Schiff. Nicht nur wegen der Overmatch, aber wie du sagst, die Reload, du kannst du einfach nicht in fronten. Er schießt du, und Versus, like Versus in Vermont, right?
00:14:20 If he shoots all of his guns, you can just turn out. Yeah. Versus a Repub, he's going to reload before you can finish your turn. Yep. He's absolutely going to get you in an unfavorable position. Yep. This is kind of funny. We got him all bottled up in like six squares.
00:14:41 Is this a secondary Alsace? Is it? His secondaries are shooting me at 10.3. Oh no. Jimmy Two-Step. That is... It's not... It's not advised in this day and age. Yeah, I mean, back in the day... You're a big squishy boy. Back in the day when Alsace first came out... Let's go! Is this Marceau rushing me? Uh, yeah. Oh my goodness. He's outside my radar range, too, by about a good two clicks. I'll just use...
00:15:10 Heel hier. Torping me. Almost in burst range, I think. Oh, come on, come on, come on. Steal it from Gaisu. I pressed the wrong button. I pressed my smoke key instead of my burst. Definitely the only thing that I want. You pressed the left mouse button instead of space. At least he missed his torps. Silver lining. I mean silver lining, yeah.
00:15:44 Now we get to farm the Bismarck. Oh, I love Des Moines so much. Sink the Bismarck. We were talking about before, when you have a port of 700 ships, you're just kind of like, what do I want to play? Oh, hi Yamato. Comfort pick ships, the Des Moines is definitely my comfort pick. Absolutely a comfort pick. It's hard to go wrong playing the DM. It is. I'm about to go and just drop off though, because Yamato decided to pay attention to me finally.
00:16:12 Und da ist nicht wirklich viel über das, was ich empfehlen. Da ist nicht viel zu tun gegen die 460s. Ich werde es warten für ihn, um so zu starten Farmen. Ich bin kind of greedy in der Smoke hier. Wenn jemand blindfires mich, würde ich die, so ich habe 2k HP. Aber ich würde nicht warten für meine Heal. Ja, ja, ich hätte ein bisschen mehr.
00:16:38 Unfortunately, I did not make a good decision, so here we are. Man, that Yamato's just holding his shots for me. Or nobody's spotted. There we go. I think also, like, nobody's spotted other than me in Montana. Nobody's spotted, yeah. Which makes it immediately obvious why he just turned and shot me the first chance he got. How could this happen to me? Oh, that's why. Yeah.
00:17:02 Let's see if I can get away with three salvos. I know I can't get four because Yamato will just clap me. Maybe I can get away with three and drop off. You don't want to just open water and fight the Bismarck and Yamato together? Bismarck, sure. Yamato, I can bait the Bismarck and hit my belt. I can't really do that with Yamato. I dropped off. Run away. Let's go. Luxon is going to stumble over me here.
00:17:32 I love moments like that where you take a risk and you're able to pull it off before they're able to reload. So you drop off right when you know they're lined up perfectly on you. Yamato is staring at me now, so you might have a chance to do some shooting. Oh man, there you shot. I'm outside of gun range. He missed, thankfully.
00:17:53 Oh yes, hit the border and turn west. Expose only three of your guns to me, please. His front guns aren't going to be turned back around for quite a while. Yeah, that's exactly what I'm hoping because he's hitting that border and I think I'm going to be able to bait him here once I get in range because he's got him over his right shoulder right now. Let's see. During development, did Lafie have SAP shells like the other line? I don't think she did. I think she was designed with the HE shells. Yeah.
00:18:23 Aw. Match ends, the CV is still here. I know. And the almost full HP Yamato is so sad. I know.
00:18:32 Oh, all that full HP left on the table. It's one of those moments, Des Moines. It's like, man, I did really well. Top of the list, 2100 base XP. Second grade. I think E for Des Moines is somewhere around 2.6 or 2.7 base XP. Which is definitely possible with DM. Oh yeah, he was my all-time base XP leader for a while, I think.
00:19:00 Ich denke, meine... Ich denke, meine MOST BASE XP EVER EARNED ist in Des Moines, eigentlich. Ja. Kannst du dir was, was es ist? Ihr MOST BASE XP? Die MOST BASE XP ich habe EVER EARNED in einem Match. 30-something 100, vielleicht 4,000?
00:19:17 Kind of low. Kind of low? Oh, is it Base XP with Premium? No, it's actual Base XP. I think my most ever was 5.1k. Jeez. So like the whole team just fed into you one by one like a 1980s, 1990s action movie. We'll have to see if I can dig up the screenshot. Incredible. Yeah, Des Moines a lot of fun. Hello chat, hello everybody. Take a little bit of a breather here, see how everybody's doing, do some chatting.
00:19:45 Ihr war in die gearing, ein bisschen über 4,500. Ja, das ist ein weiteres Schiff. Ja, ich bin tatsächlich ein Curious. Ich bin faszinierend durch die Tür hier. Haha, Ihr White House.
00:19:58 Scott, he's trying to beam you up. Yeah, well, you don't have a producer. I have to do the camera settings off of Legionnaire here, so maybe the camera just doesn't like me. It can't handle my Parker Hero trash collection. Let me get this. Almirante Brown 1. Never say never. Who knows? Alright, so today we'll be... Oh, I have 5,554 base XP in Massachusetts. I don't feel so bad now.
00:20:27 Seale Clubbership. Ja, me now. Und so is the Des Moines. Yep, today I think the Tokyo Express Operation opened up, was it yesterday or was it today? Today. Today's the first day you can run it. So we will be playing some of that on stream and testing our Operation Skills, which are a little rusty for me.
00:20:52 But since we are only two, we will be asking for some volunteers from chat to help us complete it. Yeah. So if you want to play with us, you can go ahead and send me a message in port now. Username is, I will just type it in chat and pin it.
00:21:08 We send a message to Gaishu Ishoku, and I will go ahead and invite you to Division. It is Tiers 7-8, American, Dutch, and Europe, or Commonwealth ships. Yes. Historically based ship selection. I think if you don't have one of those ships, you can use a rental Cleveland, right? Yes. Cleveland is the rental for this week. Which is actually pretty awesome. Yeah, I mean, most of the...
00:21:38 For last week's operation, that was kind of rough. We had a glass. Squishy light cruiser versus the hordes of HE spamming low tier ships. This one, it's just a ton of low tier destroyers and cruisers. And so if you're in like a, I almost said a Des Moines. If you're in a Cleveland, you just rip through everything. You just have enough HE DPM to just eviscerate all of the various destroyers and cruisers that spawn. So if you need a rental, we actually gave you a good one.
00:22:07 This time, an appropriate one this time. Yeah, don't be shy. Don't be shy. Send me a message. We'll be looking for up to four people here. If we don't get a few people, then we'll just go ahead and play in a little bit. Yeah, yeah. The question is, what ship do I want to play?
00:22:23 Cleveland? I mean, it could just be Cleveland. Although, I feel like... I mean, the tier 8 light cruisers, I don't think you're going to have a hard time really with any of them. Because I saw in chat somebody mentioned San Diego seems to work pretty well too. I got to agree. Especially when you need to get the cruisers down, that burst fire sap is going to wreck the cruisers at basically any angle. Because you can do the deck and the...
00:22:48 Ich habe gesagt, Supercastle. Superstructure. Es ist schon ein Tag. Ihr wisst, die Japanese haben eine Superstructure. Die Pagode.
00:22:59 Die Pagodas? Ich denke, die Takao-Klasse, die Otago-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse-Klasse
00:23:29 Spirited Away? No. Howl's Moving Castle? Yeah, no. Which one? Totoro. My neighbor Totoro. They make fun of it in Bob's Burgers, actually, at 1.2. Of course they do. I might actually play the San Diego as well. It's just a fun one. I've noticed the combination of Speed Boost and a Heal make this ship hilarious.
00:23:59 Der Zeven, ja. Ich kann sehen, dass es ein Solid pick ist. Ja, es ist Solid. Decent DPM? Airstrikes? Ich denke, wenn du ihn mit Konrad Helfrecht hast, er hat Battle Fervor. Oder nicht Battle Fervor, sorry. Er hat Ship-A-Day Helfrecht, die wenn du 50,000 damage hast, erhöhtes deine Batterie.
00:24:28 You're going to do 50,000 damage really quickly. Yeah. Which means you immediately get a 2% boost. But I've been finishing this with like 150, 200, almost 300,000. So actually proccing it all three times. So you're proccing it a ton. You just keep bringing it up. I think I am going to go with San Diego. We have one slot left if anybody else wants to join. Otherwise we'll kick it on in just a minute.
00:24:57 I must have this currently built for my Health Rekt. Must have him built for one of the large gun cruisers because I have heavy AP on him. Well, I could probably go to like... I mean, heavy AP on the Houghton isn't too bad. Yeah, but I could use heavy AP and SAP instead. Detectability doesn't matter too much in this operation.
00:25:27 All right, going on, I think I'm just going to go ahead and cue us. All right, here we are. Italian light cruiser, or any chance of Italian seals.
00:25:48 There's always a chance. What's that awful little machine gun boat? Barbiano? Yeah. What do you mean awful? Barbiano's a boatload of fun. For every one person I see who does passably in it, I see like 15 fail. Yeah. It's like the joke is that Italian destroyers are basically like feast or famish.
Erklärung der Tokyo Express Operation
00:26:1300:26:13 You either do incredibly well in them, or you just troll yourself by playing it. Yeah, the Borobiano really ramps it. It is way even more so than the Rogolo, for example. Kind of crazy, actually. It is a lot of fun. I really enjoy playing it. I'm just terrible at it, though. Alright, so. Tokyo Express, it is a night battle, so you can see it's quite a bit darker than maps that are lit by the sun.
00:26:37 I believe they call those daytime. Yep, so nighttime, it is the opposite of daytime. It is quite a bit darker. There's a whole bunch of these target locations that you have to go to and find the destroyers to blow up. That is your primary objective. And then there will also be a starshell mechanic, which you can see if I zoom in here. And if you go into these areas that are orange on the minimap, you will...
00:27:00 You'll probably die very quickly. I remember when this was in public test, and we got caught out, we were trying it out, and we got caught out in the illumination with Musashi. Oh, with the Musashi spawn? Like, at 5 kilometers, because it spawned right on top of everybody. And just murdered. This is the first salvo I was dead. So if you go into the Starshall area, your detection blooms by a lot. And I'm not sure exactly how it works still.
00:27:29 It bloomed further than my gun range, that was for sure. It seemed like when the Musashi was shooting us, it had a ridiculous dispersion buff when we were in the Star Shore. Yeah, I think within five kilometers, or while you're inside of the illumination, it just is obnoxiously accurate. I'm getting cross-torped. Oh my goodness. Glad I propped the Hydro.
00:27:53 Das ist eine Sache, ich wünsche mir eine Art von Utilität, außer der Selfish Ones, Speed Boost und... Utilität? Warum haben Sie Utilität, wenn Sie kann Farmsdamage werden? Ja, genau. Das ist der Punkt, in diesem Mode. Du sehen, in den 2nden Regeln, in der Top-Left, dass man Leute zu bleiben, außer der Illuminated Areas, also. Das kann ein bisschen schwierig, weil, wenn du ein Schiff, das Burning Wreck puts eine Illumination Area down. Especially, wenn du...
00:28:21 Ich weiß nicht, dass du wirklich brauchst. Ich weiß nicht, dass du wirklich brauchst. Ich weiß nicht, dass du wirklich brauchst. Du wirklich brauchst. Von den Transport Ships. Ja. Weil es gibt, wie ein Heal Rate. Und ich denke, Reload Rate? Ich weiß nicht. Ja, das war ein Hefty Buffs. Aber du wirklich brauchst die Buffs für das. Especially, seit...
00:28:43 A lot of ships in this tier don't have heals. That's why I kind of wish I could bring Belfast 43 Edinburgh in. He's got that nice heal. Does Belfast 43 not have a heal? I thought it was Smoke Radar Hydro. I don't know about heal.
00:29:10 Maybe it does have a heal. I don't think it does. I think you're right. Somebody in Belfast43 and Joyer in chat can let us know. I unironically play it in tier 8 brawls. Yeah. It has a solid toolbox. It does stuff that nobody expects it to be able to do. Oh, that's what it is. Short burst smoke generator and I think it does have a heal. Because it just does what people...
00:29:38 They don't expect it to be able to do any of that. They don't expect it to have torpedoes. Yeah, I quite enjoy Belfast 43. It's got to be in small formats. So the moment that somebody can do crossfire... It is a very squishy boat for tier 8. So if you've got a coordinated team or 12 ships, it's pretty rough. The moment you're in a smaller format, man, it just is destructive. We only have two ships left that have not been in an illuminated area.
00:30:09 Oh, I mean, I went straight in right away, because I knew I was going to have to be picking up buffs. I walked in for a buff as well. Greed, the greed.
00:30:16 I mean, there's something to be said, though. The buff in Surviving is more important than the secondary. If you lose the op because all of your ships die, it's definitely a problem. Yeah, we need one more buff. We need to destroy a ship with fire damage. And we need to destroy one more ship outside of an illuminated area. Speaking of destroying a ship with fire damage. My screen looks way more clear than yours. I would check in your settings under Graphics.
00:30:44 On the bottom here, check if fog transparency is set all the way to zero. That's the usual culprit for a visual penis. I don't have hydro and I'm in the middle of some cruisers with torpedo. Any way to change things for those of you who have bad eyesight? One, I would check the fog transparency setting and then two, you can always adjust the contrast settings on your monitor. Or be like me and admit you finally need glasses. Or yeah.
00:31:10 I desperately need glasses. I discovered that painting Warhammer this last weekend. I discovered that a long time ago. No! Yeah. I remember the first time I put on glasses, I was like, oh my god, I can see the leaves on the trees. Because before it was literally just like a green blob. Oh my goodness. It was bad. Oh, hi! Random Torpedo.
00:31:36 I might be dead. Uh oh. Yeah, I mean, the torpedoes in this can really catch you out sometimes. It's definitely my number one cause of death in operations. Well, this is more effective. I got my engine knocked out broadside in front of Myoko. Yeah, it's not great. That's rough. It's not great. Yeah, I'm pretty sure I'm dead. It does happen.
00:32:05 Oh, I still have AP-Loaded. Oops. Oh, I actually can't kill ships with fire damage because I don't have HE shells. Somebody else is going to have to take care of that one. Oh my goodness. I just keep getting caught on fire by these cruisers. I should probably use one of my Reload Boosters eventually. It would help me do some more damage.
00:32:31 Ich habe ihn in der Shooting APM- OOPS! Wo ist er? Wo ist er? Er ist eigentlich nicht auf dem Map! Du hast du einfach geteilt durch den Musashi aus dem Map?
00:32:48 I wish I caught that on camera, it's been on... He just now fucked up! Oh my, yeah, there it is, it's on the map now. That's hilarious. He actually just like spawned in off the map and instantly talked to you. Just spawned in. Boop, delete key. Amazing. That's actually incredible. Just, man. Oh, I didn't pop my reload boost from the Hagi, instantly goes down.
Strategien und Herausforderungen der Tokyo Express Operation
00:33:2200:33:22 Can't bring Brit Boats yet. I think, if I'm not wrong, the last week of the version, we opened it up to Allied Nations. It's three operations, each one lasts for one week. During the fourth and final week, I think it opens up to tier 7 through 9 ships, or maybe tier 6 through 9 ships, and it opens up to all of the Allied Nations, I think. So then you theoretically could take a Bell Pass 43 into Tokyo Express.
00:33:52 Alright, so the Musashi. To avoid devastating salvos, keep your distance from the capital ship. I think we failed that one. Oh yeah, very much so. It does happen. Look at that. So, do we fail that condition? Yeah, I guess if one of our ships gets within 5km, we fail that, so everybody has to stay away.
00:34:22 Ich will kind of kill it, though. Oh, okay. We have to keep 5km distance, but we also need to find the last destroyer here. Yes, which is where the Musashi is. So we kind of have to take down the Musashi first, I think.
00:34:37 Oh, Musashi is shooting at me now. Oh dear. Uh oh. Not what I want to be happening in San Diego. Remember, best armor is no armor. You can see on the minimap too that some of these starshells will get placed directly over some player ships. Yeah, if you were recently spotted, it's just going to be like, ha ha, boops. Yeah, so if you see that happening to you, be careful.
00:35:03 Das macht die Winn-Condition zu haben, dass sie eine Schipen unspottet sind. Das ist irgendwie schwierig. Ich habe 5-starred es einmal und 4-starred es einmal.
00:35:15 Just because, like, some of the conditions are pretty tough. I'm actually not sure how the K-Hero is spotted here, but I'll take it. Maybe our Massachusetts is close enough. Hey, don't forget to destroy one by fire there, Gaishu. I'll get right on now. I'll set a fire with my secondary guns. That's what I'll do. What? Hey, you're Bofors. If only the Bofors and the Ehrlichons could actually shoot at the ships. Could you imagine?
00:35:40 Also, if the... You gotta bring the O'Bannon in so you can start throwing potatoes. The AA guns on like the Des Moines and the Worcester, those are 3-inch, right? 76. Yeah. Automatic 76s. Imagine if those could shoot at ships. Flamethrowers. Doesn't something have secondary guns that are 76s? It definitely does.
00:36:03 Ich denke Haida und A-Hole. Ja, ich denke, es ist die Tachibana, die einfach nur mit kleinen Main-Gunsten? Vielleicht. Ich glaube, eine der Low-Tier-Japanen-Gunsten hat eine Negative-Gun-Caliber. Ja. Oh, wir haben das. Ja, das ist gerade da.
00:36:33 Well, at least he'll destroy Musashi. At least we'll win. I'm one of two to die. You actually just got deleted. It's so funny. It's almost like I'm the person who claims I'm the best Path of Exile player.
00:36:53 Oh, super good at this, I did 5 stars, dies first. Tashi von 76, miss 76.2, yeah, that's what I thought. Oh, we actually failed a whole bunch of these. Yeah. I don't think we really had any, or not too many HE spammers, unfortunately. Okay, yeah, San Diego seems pretty solid. I mean, SAP versus all the low tier destroyers definitely works pretty well.
00:37:19 The sap is nice. We'll certainly run a few more of these. We do still have one free slot. So if somebody would like to join, please feel free to send me a message in port. Might also rotate some people out if we have enough interest. Kind of curious about what else I could bring that would be trolly. Osborne would be interesting. That's quite a good bit of boom power. Oh yeah, the SAP gun boom. Yeah.
00:37:42 I usually don't see too many people playing Destroyers in these Ops, but some of the gunboat ones could do pretty well for themselves, I think. You could really set your team up for failure and bring Kansas. You know what I think would do well? I guess you can't play them, but one of the Destroyers with Deepwater Torpedoes. Oh. Yeah. Totally. Especially like a Sashio that's like... That was the person I was like, oh yeah, just bring in a Sashio and Deathstrike through your Sashio at the end, but of course you can't because it's a Japanese ship. But then you also are basically useless for the beginning of the match.
00:38:12 Alright, I think I might run it back with San Diego. Pretty comfy ship. I'm looking at what I can do to set us up for failure. Can I bring a troll ship?
00:38:23 I thought about it, but because it's so narrow, there's not a whole lot of troll ships I could bring. I could bring a carrier. You could bring a carrier. That might be a little rough. That just sounds like it's uncomfortable. I could bring Tennessee. What tier 8 carrier would you bring that's solid against destroyers? Hornet, but you only are solid against destroyers when you have your B25s. Yeah. That's it. You could go and black the destroyers behind cover.
00:38:52 You could go and check the locations and wipe one out in one go. It's actually not too bad of an idea. With a carrier you can always make sure you stay outside of an illuminated area by just hanging back. In New Yorktown you could basically smoke your whole team as needed to keep them hidden if they're coming under fire from Musashi. There's probably some good options there. I'm not going to be the one to try it. At least not on stream where everybody can watch me wildly fail.
00:39:22 We'll show Legionnaires' point of view for this one. Oh, great. Same spawn point, I'm sure that's gonna work out just fine. You can watch him face-check the Musashi again. To be fair, the Musashi face-checked me. Yeah. San Diego does seem like a popular ship for the mode. Three of us, two Massachusetts. Alright. Front row seats to the explosion. Yes, yes. Yep.
00:39:55 I think the secondary objectives also do change a little bit for this one.
00:40:01 Ja, es ist wie die D-Day-Operationen. Es gibt einen Pool von Objektiven. Du wirst nicht wissen, was es kommt auf jeden Fall. Ich denke, eine ist, dass du den Musashi hast. Ja, eine ist die Timer für den Musashi. Eine ist die Shore-Installation. Ich glaube, dass wir die randomen Elementen zu haben. Es gibt ein paar Dinge, ja.
00:40:34 Can I... Can I just blind airstrike one of these destroyers? That's what I was doing the last time. I was trying... I think I was playing the... I don't think you've ever tried to do it totally blind. This is a really bad ship to do that with, though, because you've got a few really big bombs rather than just a carpet bomb. Definitely want to saturate the area to have the best chance. Oh, hello.
00:41:08 Oh, San Diego Sapper's DDs are so good. It's Stokaze. Just disassembling this destroyer. Hilarious. Finding low-tier destroyers with higher-tier cruisers will never not be fun. It's very dirty. Just make them disappear. Oh, we've got the fire requirement again. Yep. Definitely not going to be helping with that still.
00:41:44 Das ist ein bisschen weird, weil wenn du ein Feuer auf etwas schützt, dann kann man es nicht schützt. Ja, es hat sich nicht einfach... Wir haben es an einem Zeitpunkt, wo wir einen Burnen haben, und dann hat er sich dann... Ah, mein Herz. Wir werden einfach nur auf den Buffen gehen, aber es wird mir aus dem Buffen gehen. Also, es wird mir aus dem Buffen gehen. Ah, Coastal Guns. Das ist es. Eine Sache, San Diego ist nicht so großartig, ist es zu nehmen, also es ist eine gute Sache zu haben, die ein paar Massachusten sind auf dem Team.
00:42:16 Ja, Hydro.
00:42:50 Ich denke, es ist ziemlich easy, um die Main-Task zu gewinnen, aber ich denke, es ist ein bisschen schwierig, um alle die Secondary Objekte zu gewinnen. Zum Beispiel haben Sie sich sehr intensiv über, wie die Feuer-Damage. Wenn der Timer auf die Musashi kommt, müssen Sie alle in die Position zu verschenken, um es zu verschenken.
00:43:07 Oh, we might get a fire on Transport Destroyer 2. We might get it. Let it burn. Actually, yeah, the transports are probably... Oh, you got it, you got it. I'm so one person not watching the stream. Oh, I'm gonna finish it. Clueless. Yeah, I guess the Transport Destroyers are actually kind of the ideal targets to just let burn out. Yeah, absolutely. They don't move and they don't shoot back. They're not gonna do anything.
00:43:36 We're too busy trying to pretend they don't exist to hopefully avoid gunfire. His vision is based on movement. Yeah, exactly. I just sit very still. So we've got this Agano here. It might be a problem for me. Trilio, the friendly Massachusetts will make it not exist anymore. Just because they're so narrow. My guns are not exactly the most accurate.
00:44:06 Und ja, die German Cruiser's last stopper definitiv wäre brutal. Ja, especially wenn ein random hipper shows up and just devstrikes everything. I think most of my playthroughs in Arctic Convoy ended with me either dead or on like 5,000 hit points. I did notice, um, like Duke of York had its time to shine. Because like Hydro with those 10 guns, just wonderful.
00:44:35 Oh, great question, Legionnaire. What happens when we run out of state names for US battleships? We have 17 left, apparently. We have 17 left? Uh, we just named them different states again. I actually, I might be wrong, but I think there's some states that still don't actually have battleships named after them. I think there might be one or two. I know that there are some that have duplicates, I think. Oh, look, a torpedo.
00:45:03 Munch? Just... You doing okay up there? I made the same mistake I made last time. Hey, I'm faster than everybody. Time to go farm damage. Hey, I'm dead. Getting into a good position to farm damage until you realize the bots are the ones farming you. Yes, that's basically exactly what happened again. Oh no!
00:45:26 Not again I'm dead
00:45:41 Flap-Line Musashi wieder. Da wir gehen, Front Row Seats. Wir haben nicht sogar... Jetzt kommt es wieder. Jetzt kommt es auf. Ich bin jetzt nicht mehr in den Musashi, so unsere Freunde in den Norden werden müssen. So, was geht durch mein Herz in eine Situation wie diese ist, was die Chancen wird in genau das gleiche stattfinden? Uh, Gambler's Fall ist wieder. 100%. 2 aus 2.
00:46:09 Yep. I can also spawn down towards where I am. You can spawn in like 4 different places and instead it just decided to... What is that? 1 out of 16? Possibilities? There's a reason I put the camera on you. I just knew. Makes sense.
00:46:31 How much did you pay the Musashi? Maybe flipping some switches behind the scenes. I'm wondering actually if it's because of how far down south the other half of the team is. If it like spawns in the area with a lower tonnage. And that just happened to be me. Spawns in an area where it can just gank somebody. Yes. I wonder the play might be to just keep most of your team like centralized so that when the Musashi pops up you can all just run to it. You know.
00:46:58 After everything, yes. I'm inclined to agree after doing that twice. I usually don't go to the 1, 2, 3, 4 line. I usually will do what y'all are doing down on that south edge. It seems like you want to be in a spot where you're not going to be too close to Musashi if it spawns, but close enough where you can run to it depending on whichever spawn location it gets. You absolutely want to go south because the density of enemy ships over on that side is so much higher.
00:47:28 Ich kann gar nicht sehen. Magami und Miyoko. Man. Wir werden nicht mehr Killing dem Musashi in der nächsten Minute, ich denke. Vielleicht die San Diego und Massachusetts sind da etwas work. Reiming Flag. Was sind die Chance es hat eine Reiming Flag? Geh für es. Geh für es. Geh für es.
00:48:12 40 Sekunden? Ich kann nicht sehen, es ist HP. Mein Render Distanz ist zu hoch. Oh, ja, es kommt auf den Top. Oh, du bist so blind. Actually so blind. Ich kann nicht sehen, dass Musashi's Hit Point ist direkt auf meinem Screen. Ja, das ist definitiv nicht passiert in 20 Sekunden.
00:48:33 You can't farm down 175,000. It's healing! It's like, wait, the HP is going up. You're shooting the wrong kind of shells! Why is the HP going up?
00:48:50 Es ist eigentlich ein Spooky. Ich meine, Merck ist zu weniger als 0.5 HP. Er hat fast 200,000 Hiboyant Musashi an ihn. Wir haben zwei San Diegos und andere Massachussets an ihn. Das ist dann zu 16,000 HP. Das ist ein bisschen schwer, eigentlich. Und natürlich ist es, dass wir den Musashi an den Transport sind. Es ist immer so, es geht von den Transport zu den Musashi.
00:49:19 Well, this might be a little awkward. I think I'm going to do it. I think I'm going to bring a carrier next time. I think I'm going to bring a Hornet next time so I can use those tactical squadrons to get the one that's way out deep.
00:49:35 We need to find a Submarine Unicum and make him a CM like we did for Wisconsin's Carriers. Am I not enough of a Submarine Unicum for you? Oh, everybody's a Submarine Unicum until Alliance comes out. Yeah, as long as it's not the Alliance. I'm decent in the Balau, and that's pretty much it. Maybe Archerfish, too. I'm trying to think if there were...
00:50:06 Still on the topic of battleships, state names for battleships, because I actually can't think of... Was Vermont ever an actual one? Dreadnoughts or pre-dreadnoughts? There were 63 total battleships. Hawaii! That's actually quite a lot. There we go. There was never a battleship Hawaii or a battleship Alaska, because territories weren't states. And they used the territories for the names of the...
00:50:38 The Alaska Classes. So there you go. So definitely not Alaska or Hawaii. No, the designation was CB, but wasn't the actual term Large Cruiser? Yes. Not Battle Cruiser. I don't know how do you get CB from Large Cruiser, I have no idea. My personal favorite fact about that, the whole Alaska thing, is like, we're going to build this 12-inch gun cruiser.
00:51:06 ...to put the most firepower we can on a small but decently armored hull. Oh, it actually is terrible. But it was still a strategic win because it scared the Japanese enough to try to plan on building Azuma. Which absolutely would not have helped them. Which is not what they needed at that time period at all. They needed more carriers and more submarines and more logistical assets.
00:51:35 And things that could sink US submarines? Yes. Which they never really figured out? They didn't really figure out sinking submarines or destroying planes, to be honest. And that was kind of the downfall. We had the VT fuse, the variable time fuse, which... Definitely not a proximity fuse. Definitely not a super awesome... I was still in the middle of the pack.
00:52:01 Pretty solid. Yeah, definitely not something that broke the laws of physics at that point in time.
00:52:09 Wir hatten die VT-Fuse, sie hatten die wirklich worst A-A-Gun der Welt. Du meinst die 460s mit der Beehive Ramp? Okay, vielleicht nicht so gut als das. Ich meine... Die 25mm Auto-Cannon war nicht so großartig. Ja, nicht so großartig. Obwohl, eigentlich, Enterprise mit den Rockets? Nein, ich nehme die Hornet. Enterprise war das eine CV, die ich hatte in PTS.
Weitere Durchläufe der Operation und Schiffsauswahl
00:52:3500:52:35 Was Enterprise alright? Yeah, I mean, flying the rockets around did decently well. Thank you for the games, Thurbach and Merc. Much appreciated. We have two more slots if people would like to join up. Oh, I have two more. AP bombs on Hornet. That would be good for Musashi time. That's true. And I have secondary... Although, I'm actually not sure if the Hornet AP bombs can go through the Musashi Citadel armor.
00:53:02 Good question. The Yamato-class have actually pretty thick Citadel decks. Yeah, they've got kind of a turtle back there, too. You know, I don't know. I guess we'll find out. I also have manual secondary guns now. I forgot about that. Oh, yeah. Is there a Tier VI CV that actually has a decent secondary loadout? Not that we can use, unfortunately. Yeah, it's only the American CVs. Yeah, because you'd want to use Kaga for the big guns or Graf Zeppelin. Manual secondary it up in the...
00:53:30 Das wäre wirklich lustig. Ich würde eigentlich einfach mal einfach sein. Ich würde einfach mal einfach sein, um... ...einhalb von der... ...einhalb von der... ...einhalb von der... ...einhalb von der... ...einhalb von der... ...einhalb von der... ...einhalb von der... ...einhalb von der... ...einhalb von der... ...einhalb von der... ...einhalb von der... ...einhalb von der... ...einhalb von der... ...einhalb von der... ...einhalb von der... ...einhalb von der... ...einhalb von der... ...einhalb von der... ...einhalb von der... ...einhalb von der...
00:53:59 Ja, für die Allies ist es nicht ein ganzes ZDF, so es wäre gut. Was ist Wichita für die Cruiser? Ich könnte das mal ein try, eigentlich. Wichita, 203s. Definitely nicht als high DPM als die San Diego, aber es sollte schon ziemlich punchy sein. Es wird wahrscheinlich ein paar Modulen, das vielleicht reduziertes Torpedo Spam.
00:54:20 Ja, das wäre definitiv sehr hilfreich. Das ist der Vorteil des Schlag und HE. Also, es gibt die Radar, das ist sehr hilfreich für spottingen Dinge in der Night Environment. Man, ich muss sagen, die Hydro ist wahrscheinlich die meisten benötigen. Das ist ja, die... ...Cleveland ist wahrscheinlich schon... ...die Biggity Best.
00:54:44 I'm actually curious, what does Anchorage have for equipment? Anchorage might be solid. Smoke once Musashi comes out. Smoke so the Musashi doesn't instantly blow you up. Yeah, that's actually... That's actually interesting.
00:55:03 Ja. Ja.
00:55:31 Don't take an invite, please. Please message me in port. If you send me a message in port, I can invite you. Otherwise, it's kind of hard for me to look up names off of the Twitch usernames.
00:55:43 Kannasian DD-Lucian. Um, maybe sometime in the future. Should eventually return. It was a dockyard ship a while ago. The dockyard ships are a little bit rarer on the reruns. We tend to save them for special occasions. They do come back eventually, though. So keep your eyes open. So I think I'll focus Destroyers with the Torp Bombers, Cruisers with the AP Bombers, and then use the B-25s for the...
00:56:14 Alright, if I don't receive a message in the next 30 seconds or so here, I'll just go ahead and drop us.
00:56:23 The Constellation. And actually Constellation has radar, doesn't it? Yeah, Constellation has radar, has torpedoes as well. So like for a self-defense, quick self-defense. So unfortunately, I don't think there's any battleships that are available with Hydro, unfortunately. The torpedoes are what kind of just catches me out sometimes. I always forget those Tier 4 Destroyers have a torpedo reload speed of like 40 seconds. They can torp you fairly quickly.
00:56:52 They don't do that much damage, but it only takes one to flood you, and then you repair it, and then it floods you again for it to really start getting painful. And now you're moving at 20 knots. Yeah, 20 knots while all the other torpedoes are reloaded and headed your way. It's pretty rough. Oh, I forgot that Wichita is like the funky Fletcher guns for secondaries. Yeah, it's got the weird single mounts. We use those to model on Florida as well. Will the Somers ever come back?
00:57:21 Unlikely. Sommers be broken. Except for special events. I'm going to be honest. That's a really fun boat. It's the one boat that I don't have that I wish I had picked up when it was for steel. I don't know why I didn't get it. I definitely had enough steel at the time. I was just like, eh. I get it when I have gearing. Big mistake. One of the considerations too I'm thinking about is like...
00:57:50 Fighters. You might be able to keep stuff spotted pretty well. Yeah, just drop fighters over them. Yeah, so we'll see. We can definitely clear out these areas quicker than normal. Oh, I wonder if...
00:58:12 I can actually spot stuff, cause it's night time. Oh, you might have to fly directly over things. Oh no. Yeah, that might not be great actually. Oh no. Oh, this might be misery. Yeah, you might have to wait for people to spot things so you can actually strike them. I didn't even think about that, yeah. I didn't either.
00:58:38 Das ist kind of miserable. Oh, no, no, because they have AA. Oh, they'll turn the AA on and shoot at you? Yep. Playable. Oh, yeah, the Wichita guns are pretty punchy. Surprised I'm not picking up the Destroyer on radar here. Oh, no. I mean, they're not at every location, I think. Yeah. I should probably turn my Hydra on, but I think I'll wait.
00:59:12 There actually was a battleship named Montana with Kiel 8 in World War I. Huh. I actually didn't know that. Wasn't it broken up, though, after Washington? I do not know. Wouldn't surprise me. Fade of a lot of the early battleships. Alright, time to pop the Hydro now that I'm spotted. Oh yeah, the Destroyer is there. I guess maybe it just spawns in once you're close enough. Oh, that's unfortunate. There's a whole reason for bringing this.
00:59:54 Das ist das, Hornet Noises. Ich meine, vielleicht wird es dann spawnen, wenn die Planeten sind? Wir finden auf dieses Mal. Oh, ich glaube nicht, wir haben die Fire Objective dieses Mal. Nein, wir müssen drei Buffs... Pick up drei Buffs... Illuminated Areas... Oh, Sync Cruisers. ...und destroy Ships, während sie bleiben außerhalb der Illuminated Areas. Ich bin ein bisschen concerned, weil Whitshot nicht hat eine Heel, also muss ich ein bisschen mehr mit meinen HP sein.
01:00:33 Es ist ein sehr guter Incentive zu gehen und picken eure Buffs. Oh, mein ganzes Grund für bringen diese ist irgendwie null und void. Ja, Carriers definitiv nicht sind die beste Optimal pick. Nein, absolut nicht. Ich habe das in diesem Moment gelernt. Aber ich habe mir B25, so ich bin ein Happy Camper.
01:01:00 GoFundMe to build a USS Montana. Dig up the plans from the archives and build a 12-gun battleship. Well, if it worked for Star Citizen. Do you think if we used the total amount of money that Star Citizen has ever received, could we afford Montana? Not even a chance. Not like one turret, maybe. Battleships were expensive, as it turns out. Super expensive.
01:01:31 Oh no, I'm going to waste him on something that somebody else is going to just... No, I'm going to get at you! That's my 400 hit points! It's never a waste. Mine! Oh my goodness, try to finish off this destroyer. Yeah, this is not ideal. Leave the CVs in the port, maybe. Getting fed on permafire by the singular front gun mount on the kamikaze. Oh my goodness. Two fires! Hey man, gunboat kamikaze is so pee.
01:02:06 Es hat mich mit zwei Schäuern und hat zwei Fires. Hier, ich will. Oh, da ist ein Unspottet Ships shooting AP into mein Broadside. Das ist eine Frage. Ich bin mir die Citadel. Ist es ein Musashi? Ich hoffe nicht. Es ist ein Aoba.
01:02:29 5 Overpens, oh my goodness. I thought these ships were supposed to explode when you shoot AP at them. Have you tried shooting the Citadel? 7 Overpens, oh my goodness. I think I'm having some difficulties here aiming at the Citadel. I'm also almost dead. I'm actually getting kind of smacked around by these cruisers. I mean, they're 203 cruisers. They hurt.
01:02:55 You were also in an unfortunate situation where one did spawn basically flat broadside. Yeah, that was a little rough. Constellation, can you like shoot a little worse so I can actually do some damage?
01:03:08 Das ist, was fühlt sich so bad, wenn du nicht ein paar Teammaten hast, es könnte okay sein. Aber die Zeit von denen Dinge getötet werden, ist super short. Super short, ja. Du hast nicht viel Zeit, um zu flyern und getrennt. Oh, ich wünsche Friendly Fire, was noch so I could just Torpe you instead. Da wird viel Mutual Teamkilling, wenn es noch Teamkilling ist.
01:03:37 Oh, das war immer eine gute Zeit, in Clan Battles. Das ist das, was ich vermist, was mit Clan-Mates und Clan-Battles. So viel silliness. Although, wir haben ein paar Spiele, die wir schon erwähnt haben, also wir waren. Ja, so wahrscheinlich ein guter Ding, das nicht existiert. Still, so viel Spaß.
01:04:03 We should make a friendly fire mode at some point. We really should.
01:04:39 Oh, look, there's Musashi. In that same spot. Again. You weren't there to say hi to it. I did my time. Once again, I'm not going to be able to get over my time to actually kill it. But we do have two Massachusetts. I will be able to get hopefully some floods on us. My goal. Actually, it might be the CV's time to shine.
01:05:05 Oh, yay. You have too much faith. The 50% Torpedo Belt Rusashi? Yeah. I mean, if I can get it, well, no, it'll probably be saturated because of all the HE spam. Yeah. Let's see. Well, let's find out. Aim that correctly. I am finding it kind of hard to aim at the waterline here. Yeah.
01:05:40 Fires, floods. Same difference, water, fire. If I can just put it on fire with some water real quick. We should clean up the Musashi here, I think. Having the Massachusetts in position definitely helps a lot. Yeah, two floods, there we go. I'm happy. I've gotten my revenge.
01:06:15 Eternera survives the battle with Musashi present. Nemesis. Yes! And I stole the kill from afar. I mean, I was a good teammate. And no, we failed. We didn't kill the other cruiser in time. We should have waited a little bit to kill the Musashi. I'm sorry I flooded it too fast. Cool, I got steel. Nice, nice.
01:06:45 Ja, und remember, als you play these operations, you do progress through the narrative campaign in the name of Tomorrow. When you finish the campaign, I think you unlock a bunch of cool stuff, as well as the opportunity to purchase the Missouri directly, which is wonderful. Do you want yourself a radar battleship? Atlanta. Let's go for another one. What do I want to play this time? I think I'm unironically going to bring the Atlanta.
01:07:22 I'm thinking about Congress, but it probably doesn't quite have the raw DPM and accuracy when you want to be shooting the destroyers, right? Yeah, probably not. I'm bringing my island camouflage, too, so I can channel that Dutch ship. Fear me out. California. Florida, maybe, with the faster, more agile hull. Wait, does Florida have hydro?
01:07:49 Am I crazy? Well, I mean, yes I am, but that's... The Tennessee is even more of a slug than the California is, isn't it? It doesn't have hydro, it has DFAA. The Tennessee, yes. The Tennessee is dangerous for two reasons. It's really slow.
Diskussion über die Eigenschaften der Tennessee und Gameplay-Taktiken
01:08:1301:08:13 Und es ist slow in der turn, der rate der turn ist glacial. Ja. So du siehst Torbjörn, du sagst, oh, ich muss die Daud. Es ist eigentlich, es hat worse acceleration als ein lot der Same-Tür Battleships. Ja. So in der turn, wenn du Bleeding Speed hast, es einfach nicht hat die engine power zu eigentlich keep up. Aber ich werde es ein probieren, weil es hat die super accurate 12-guns. Ich, für einen, look forward zu dir, dass du dir erased von Musashi. Tennessee vs. Musashi.
01:08:41 Ich bin, ich bin zu weit entfernt. Ich habe Teammates in front of mich in front of mich. Legionnaire wird in front of mich zu draw aggro. Ich weiß, das ist genau das. Ich bin der only Tier VII hier. Aber ich bin absolut, ich werde schreckt das erste Mal. Ich denke, ich habe ein Bunch of Atlanta, wenn ich es auf PTS war. Ich habe auch, weil ich es für D-Day war. Aber das ist okay. Ich verstehe, Tennesse würde fühlen.
01:09:10 with Vermont-like acceleration. Yeah. But at the same point in time, like, she's quite accurate and hits really hard. I would say Tennessee actually has one of the scariest main batteries that she rate. Yes. Because of how accurate it is. Yeah, even though it's only 356s, like, you're getting hit by 10 356s out of the salvo of 12.
01:09:35 Eating Torps Tennessee. Definitely could happen. Definitely could happen. I'm just hoping that I'll be far enough away from everything because I'm too slow. No. Destroyers are going to Torp other things. Sneak all the way up on you and just soup. Please no. Just nothing but Torp soup.
01:09:56 Ja, ich habe vergessen, wie slow das Schiff ist. Wir sind die 20-knoten. Kommt, du kannst du es. 19.3, 4, 5, 6. Jetzt kannst du meine Rudder. Was passiert wenn du dein Rudder, Geishu? Let's find out. Let's go zu halft Rudder hier. Halft Rudder und back. Und 12 Knot. All die bis zu 16.
01:10:24 Oh, das macht mich nur auf. Er ist einfach eine große, fatte Gunplatform. Ich meine, eine der lustigen Dinge ist, wenn ich es habe, ist es, dass du einfach nur Leute mit es trinkst. Du einfach fassierst, und dann schießt sie an dich, und du turnst. Und das ist alles, was du tun hast, und du schreitst. Und du schreitst, und du schreitst. Speed cuts von 20.
01:10:51 Ja, niemand expects you to go down to single digits almost instantaneously. It's like an airbrake. It's like the barn doorstop that Wisconsin did. Which is really funny if you ever read about that. They're like, yeah, I never quite was able to steer the right way again. It's like, hmm, I wonder why. It's because you turned both of the rudders inboard? Hmm.
01:11:16 Usually just a blanket, right? Like it's better to have more modes available than to forget a mode, right? Yeah, it's generally just because that stuff is copied across the board.
01:11:34 Better to add all the modes than to forget one. Man, I got so much starting damage, it's crazy. 103 shell hits for 594 damage. 103 shell hits already? 594 damage. Most of it was the fort. Oh dear.
01:11:54 How many of those are actually pens? Atlanta and San Diego are not the best ships versus the forts to be sure. I do remember in D-Day though it was like the meta ship. Because you just shredded everything. Especially with the classified documents. You get it so you do more damage to structures.
01:12:18 Just erase them. Oh, yeah. Yeah, absolutely. Because you could blind fire the airstrips. And so you just wipe them out. I remember people bringing the Indroct and just blind airstriking them. Yeah, blind airstrikes too, yep. But basically 100 to 0. The problem was that the Indroct was not great for everything else. Yeah. It had an okay main battery, but nowhere near as good as Atlanta for...
Japanische U-Boote und Strategien im Spiel
01:12:4201:12:42 Machine gunning all the smaller ships. And the cool thing about Atlanta is you really could just do everything because you could clear the minefields at full speed. Yeah. You were the only ship that was agile enough to do it and still had the gunpower to kill everything before it could do anything to you. Yeah, actually having the deck-mounted depth charges is actually quite useful for clearing the minefields. Is there a plan to introduce Japanese submarines? Well, there's already a couple, but...
01:13:10 Die wirklich wollen die 401. Sie wollen die 401. Sie wollen die 401. Sie wollen die 401. Sie wollen die 401. Sie wollen die 401. Wir werden sicherlich nicht beendet, die TechStreet-Line vor dem Designated-Time. Ja. Du kannst immer sagen. Das ist wie ich get fired. Wir werden nicht beendet, aber wir werden nicht beendet.
01:13:41 Oh, I'm alone against Naoba. So this suddenly goes from being like, haha, lol, I outtier it by two, to like, oh, this is a near-peer adversary. The Atlanta is fun until two or three of the heavy cruisers spawn near you, and then it's just... Yeah, this is actually a little bit worrisome.
01:14:02 Oh no, I'm getting tourbrushed by Kamikaze. Who coincidentally downed Mr. President and me and actually ate one of the torpedoes from the Aoba. How kind of him. Yeah, nice. Oh no! Took a big hit there from Aoba.
01:14:35 Ja, die Heavycruisers nicht spielen, wenn sie sich nicht auf die Schiff auspielen. Um, um, zu niemandem zufrieden, ich werde wieder sterben. Run away. I'm gonna try. Um, wenn du aus den Starshells kannst, vielleicht kannst du darken. Um, ich wurde dark, aber es ist zu late. Oh, do you have a fire on you? Ja, no, ich habe an Incoming Shells. Ah, and one lit me on fire. And I'm spotted. And they're aiming at me. And I'm gonna burn out. Come on, DCP?
01:15:05 I'm trying! Mashing the button. Yashi, oh, you're gonna make it out. You're gonna make it out of there. Now you just have to wait a little bit for heals.
01:15:19 389, 402, 414, oh shit, an island! No, the Musashi is up here with me. Um, it's just, it's running me down, and it's gonna effectively run me down, because I have the turn to get by an island, so it's going to actually have an intercept course with me here in a second. The Terminator's coming for you. 659, 672, 672, how many buffs do we have? We have one. We have one. We have one out of four.
01:15:47 Help me. No help for Legionnaire. Man, why do I do this to myself? Getting annihilated by the bots again. To no one's surprise, Tennessee has not been the most effective pick for this operation. I blame you. These cruisers should be dead. Only I was playing San Diego or Massachusetts or Wichita or Baltimore.
01:16:13 The Constellation is doing some heroic 1v8 shenanigans down there. It really is. I'm curious how long it'll last. Well, I'm actually avenging the Musashi this time, so I guess we'll see how the Tennessee fares against that. I fire immediately targeted. That's great. You have more than 1,000 hit points now. Yeah, I do. I'm practically a whole ship. Rest in peace. One for one by the Hatsuharu.
01:16:53 So we gotta destroy cruisers. And destroy Musashi. Oh yeah, we need to get three more cruisers. I actually kinda have a hard time seeing that happen soon. Well, if this Aoba closes the gap enough for me to see him. Wait, I have radar. You have the magic key. Moment I fire though, he's gonna start shooting at me. I wonder if I can outturn his guns if he tries to...
01:17:27 The Japanese Cruisers do not have great turret traverses. Yeah, but I think I'm too close and overcommitted to make that happen. I think he's going to get his turrets around before I can do anything. Yeah, I definitely don't think we're clearing the Cruisers plus the objective. And Japanese Cruiser HE, it's just rough. Oh, I'm dead here. That's definitely going to finish me. Two fires. I lived! A bot.
01:18:02 I am fighting for my life against the Musashi at six kilometers. Oh, does so much damage. Oh, come on. Oh, really living on a prayer here. How are you still? Really, really just blade running at the moment. He's going to kill me, but I think I'm going to get him too. Get him. Yes. Do I actually barely clear the Musashi mission here?
01:18:43 Ja, 12, 10 Sekunden. Ja, wir werden das. Wir werden nicht den Kruisern geschehen. Ja, es wäre toll, wenn ich ein bisschen extra Zeit habe. Oh, Atlanta ist... Ich bin froh, dass du das survived. Das ist nicht ideal.
01:19:03 Maybe if you don't have IFHE, maybe taking IFHE would be the bottom of the team for me. Nobody actually mentioned Boise, and that might not be a bad idea. 15 guns, Hydro, and a superheel. Hey! Look at that little Atlanta! Look at that little guy! I did not do amazingly there. The Tennessee wasn't great? Yeah, to no one's surprise. Wanted to give it a try.
01:19:43 Ja, 15 guns. Big Alpha Strike to one or two shot the Destroyers. Yep. Super heal, so when the Musashi spawns next to you, you might survive for 30 seconds longer. I think Hydro will be comfortable for me. I think we do have some room. Bunch of Massachusetts. No one's surprised that Massachusetts is one of the best battleships for the moon.
01:20:15 Ja, das ist nicht Tier X, so ich kann nicht den Daringen machen. Ah, das Struggle ist real, Ladies and Gentlemen. Ich muss die Kommandern sagen, ich bin so in die Habit mit diesen Secret Lab Chairs zu messen mit den Armwresten. Ja, du kannst das einfach aus. Ja, du kannst das einfach aus. Und so, ich bin wirklich in die Habit, wenn ich es, wenn ich mit den Armwresten bin, und ich bin wirklich in die Habit, wenn ich mit den Armwresten bin.
01:20:44 Und ich denke, es wird wahrscheinlich auf den Mic geteilt. Aber die Leute hören, wie, klick, klick, klick, klick. Es ist diese. Es ist 100% diese. Es ist okay, weil sie auch hören können, meine Spaceparte furchtbar. Ja. Die coolen Sache ist, dass du eigentlich eine Pillow-Fight mit diesen Schäden hast. Das ist ein Magnetik-Pillow.
01:21:07 Probably the bad thing in regards to my posture is that I never actually noticed the pillow. Always hunched forward. Always hunched over. You have like the reverse of the lumbar support. The gamer posture. I thought the gamer posture was like the one from South Park with the World of Warcraft. That's like peak performance. I think there's two kinds of gamer postures. There's that and then there's the shrimp. The shrimp. Hunched over.
01:21:38 Which Boise will score higher? We'll see, we'll see. Depends on who the Musashi spawns near, I think. Me, it's going to spawn by me. Absolutely going to spawn by me. Legionnaire might have the Musashi magnetism. I think I'm actually just going to stick in the 5-6 area instead of going out far, because I don't see any objectives that are out that far. Yeah, not a bad idea. Yeah, Enterprise, good luck spotting any of those objectives early.
01:22:02 Ja, das ist die Runde mit CVs und das Op ist... Ja, es geht nicht. Ich habe versucht, ich habe versucht, ich habe versucht. Ich habe versucht, die CVs nicht zu spätigen. Ich habe versucht, so hart und nicht zu spätigen. Ich habe versucht, dass es nicht zu spätigen. Ich habe versucht, dass es nicht zu spätigen. Ich habe es nicht zu spätigen. Ich habe es nicht zu spätigen. Ich habe es nicht zu spätigen. Ich habe es nicht zu spätigen. Ich habe es nicht zu spätigen. Ich habe es nicht zu spätigen.
01:22:33 Somehow. I really don't know how. There's no reason for me to have lived that and to have done as well as I did. You were fighting for your life at the end there against that Aoba. Yes. Quite a bit of silliness. Getting the second buff is the only reason I survived. Yeah, the healing does come in clutch, especially since a lot of these tier 7 and 8 cruisers don't have access to heals. Yeah.
01:23:02 You'd probably see a lot more battleships and destroyers if that were the case, if they didn't have the kill buff. You'd need the destroyer to be able to drop off as quickly as you could. Yeah. It's a bit like Haida.
01:23:20 Osborn ist, unironically, probably pretty good. Someone in chat mentioned the Kid. Oh wait, no, it doesn't have Burst Fire, right? It just has good DPM. The Kid? Oh yeah, Kid. Yeah, the Heal, the DPM. You don't really need Torps in this mode. Yeah, really the only thing you need the Torps for is the Musashi, which I mean, usually have plenty of damage on the field already. Yeah.
01:23:48 Until you don't. 6000 damage salvo to the destroyer. Juicy. No wonder these were so terrifying to the Japanese. Call these things machine guns. Lots of guns.
01:24:04 Wie viele guns können wir auf einen Lightcruzern? Ja. Ja. Das war die ganze Punkt der Cleveland-Klasse 2. Wie viel armament können wir eigentlich auf einen Cruzer-Hole haben? Ja, ich meine, ich glaube nicht, dass es in-game ist, weil die Secondaries nicht wirklich ein Ding für viele Kruzern. Aber in actualität, die Secondary armament auf den Clevelands... Terrifying. Ridiculous für ihre size.
01:24:26 Es war eine Frage, dass wir einfach so top-heavy machen können, dass es dies ist. Es kann einfach nicht tun. Es wird einfach nur überhört. Das war die Frage, die Japaner hatten mit der... A lot of der Kruisers, tatsächlich. Takao-Klaas, wenn es erst kam. Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Takao-Taka
01:24:55 I totally missed, narrowly missed this buff, and now I need to back up and get it. Sad. Sad Legion noises. I shot an island too, just for good measure. Legion has hurt himself in his frustration. Cool. Or his confusion, whatever, the Pokemon thing. Hey, I'll warp off the Enterprise, nice.
01:25:35 Ich habe schon schon erwartet, dass ich meine alten Habitse. Careful, careful. Heading auf die 3-Line wieder. Ja, vielleicht müssen die Massachusettsen die Leid da sein. Ja, ja.
01:25:48 We'll grab the buff here from the Destroyer. I gotta say, I still think that the De7 Provincia is probably still... Yeah, I mean, just so well-rounded, right? Yeah. I just wish it had Hydro. That is a little bit of a problem, given the enemies that you fight in this one. Yeah. But the good news is that you have the DPM to basically put them down when they come up. Yeah, you just need to be mindful. It has 360 turrets, too, which like...
01:26:15 I cannot actually stress how useful that is in this operation. You just turn every which way to dodge torts and such and not care about keeping your guns on target too much. And in order to transition, you can just turn to the closest angle rather than the optimal angle. And honestly, as long as you're keeping an eye on which bots could have had the angle to launch torpedoes at you, not having the hydro isn't terrible. Just you need to be a little bit more aware. Yeah.
01:26:42 I'm waiting for me to go down the middle and then Yamato Masashi is spawning like
01:26:49 J4. I set a fire on the Kiera there, hopefully... He burns out? Oh, do we actually have the fire? We do have the fire. Yeah, we do have the fire one. Well, let's... Nope, Enterprise is already gonna kill this other CAG. Womp womp. Would have had to get a few more shells on the CAG anyways for it to burn out, I think. Yeah. Sorry, we can always try to burn out the Ashi or the other ones. It's not critical. Again, the secondary objectives are good to have. In my opinion, this is a fun enough operation that...
01:27:18 And the rewards are, I don't want to say close enough together, but they're not as grindy, for example, as Star Trek and some D-Day rewards were. I mean, for this operation, it seems like I can somewhat consistently hit around 1.4 to 1.6k basic speed, which is pretty solid for like a 10 to 12 minute operation, I think is about how long it takes on average. I would call this mode semi-sweaty.
01:27:44 Wo, wie, you DON'T have to stress? You just need to keep an eye on what you're doing so that you actually clear most of the secondaries, plus don't die to Musashi spawning six kilometers away. Who would do something like that twice in a row? I haven't seen it happen yet. No, that would be impossible. I haven't fired my guns in forever. I don't even know if they work anymore.
01:28:11 The range is a little bit of an issue on the Boise, but a lot of things do spawn pretty close to you. Well, I mean, like, it's not as big of an issue just because you don't spot stuff until it's close in this one. For the next one, it'd be a problem. For basically anything where you're trying to shoot stuff, obviously, at, you know, 13.7 kilometers is going to be a problem. I had to double-check the range. Problem is, I think Musashi's going to come in right on one of those.
01:28:42 Objektiv. Oh, Lodge, he's coming. Look at how much I like the Boise. Waiting for this one to be the one who respawns at the bottom, and now we're the closest one still. Yeah, absolutely what's going to happen is I'm going to be the closest still when it spawns. It's one of the spawn conditions, actually. It's all the producers are in Belgrade right now watching this, and they're like, let's just wait, just wait. Hit the button.
01:29:08 Just an if statement in there that checks for Legionnaire's ship's position. Yeah, if Legionnaire then spawn on top of. I think that's how you code. Oh, there it is. Oh no! You are actually the closest ship to it. No! Oh, there was half your hit points. Oh.
01:29:29 Question, how long do flares take to dissipate? I actually don't know. That is a good question. Probably something we either have to ask our developers or have to measure. How long do what? How long do the starshells last? The flares? Good question. There's a stopwatch somewhere in the office. Oh wait, no, that was Marco Stenomach.
01:29:59 Ja, das ist super nicht cashmoney. Es ist sehr schrecklich.
01:30:18 Ich kann sagen. Oh, das ist eigentlich ein, wo wir alle die Secondaries können. Oh, das ist eigentlich ein, wo wir alle die Secondaries können. Aber wir müssen... Ja, wir müssen die Last Destroyer finden. Ja, wir müssen die Last Destroyer finden. Ja, wir müssen die Last Destroyer finden. Ja, wir müssen die Last Destroyer finden. Ja, wir müssen die von der Kür, wenn du... Ja, ich muss die von der Musashi... Du bist closer, das ist alles. Ich liebe dich. Du bist 5 Kilometer closer, als ich bin. Das ist hazing.
01:30:49 Es ist nicht mein Falt, dass du etwas closer bist als Musashi ist. Das ist denn meine Stats sind nur blue, ist es? Die Unicumbo. Ja. Ich bin mir von Bogsy, der erste, wie, shock ist, wenn ich ihn, was der finalste Schritt für eine Seaburn threat ist. Ich bin zu der Lowest-Value-Private und bin, wie, hey, break the seal on your mask und re-seal it. Und er ist, wie, was?
01:31:20 Ja, das ist der letzte Level von Chemikal Detektor, ist Joe. Ja, das ist der Private. Ja. Wie lange dauert es für den Kickin' Chicken? Oh mein Gott. Das ist ein Horrible, und ich liebe es. Hey, wir haben alle die Secondary Advertretten dieses Mal, ich denke. Ja, ich denke das ist 5-star. Also, wir haben eine Fählinge früher, ich habe nicht gehört. Es ist schon ein Kilometer weg. Ja, Panik.
01:31:59 Ooh, wir können Triumphant Skin for Iowa in 7 stars. Ich denke, wir haben eigentlich das ein bisschen zu schnell gemacht, weil wir uns nicht mehr über 1.2 Kbps haben. Oh ja, wir haben. Wir waren sehr effizient. Und wir haben das. 2 Boises. Ja, es ist gut. Ich meine, es geht einfach um die Destroyer in 10 Sekunden. Ja, absolut.
Clan-Aktivitäten und Belohnungen im Spiel
01:32:2501:32:25 What are you guys talking about, doing naval battles with clan members? One, there's clan battles, which you can just play with the Subman Div. Two, there are naval battles and division stars that are both kind of other clan mechanics where naval battles will... I forget that the clan stars are a thing. Yeah, division stars are a great way to get a whole bunch of stuff. Here, if I remember right. Oh, look at that, we actually got two division stars.
01:32:53 Yep. Why are we doing this? Playing randoms, co-ops, operations, or brawls, I think, with your clanmates. We'll earn you division stars. And yeah, you can get three stars with each clanmate. And so... The more stars you earn, the more stuff you get. Up to some steel, which is pretty nice.
01:33:14 Ja, es ist eigentlich, 500 Steel, Distant Voyage Container, das ist nicht schlecht. Ja, ich denke, es ist eigentlich eine der, die ich wünschte, dass es zu zero war. Es sieht ein bisschen mehr Cinematic zu haben, aber es ist ja, wie viel mehr klarer die Game ist, als es zu zero ist.
01:33:36 I like it being more atmospheric. I'm all about the performance. You would. All about the performance. Alright. Do we want to play more Ops? Do we want to finish it off? I don't know. Do we want to chat for a while?
01:33:52 We can play some Brawls so we can kind of chat, because Brawls to me are kind of mindless. Yeah, what format do we have going on? We have 3 vs. 3 Tier 7. Hello, Sharnhorst43. Alright, alright. I got something for this. Let's see. What was I using? If anybody wants to join us for the third slot in Brawls, feel free.
01:34:26 I'm gonna go ahead and kick it out. We do actually have Puma in here. Oh, yeah, he left. No, that was the clan. Gross fart. No. He said it. Oh, you guys. So, funny thing, the bow torpedoes, like, yeah, you get overmatched a ton because you got thin armor. The bow torpedoes are hilarious.
01:34:50 Ich werde ein drive-by auf ihn. 40k damage mit Torpedos. Was ist die Alpha? Huge. Huge. 29,000. Oh my god. People will be like, oh, I totally got him. And then single Squiggle Torp. That actually kind of makes me want to bring the Rodney as well. Well, it reloads so fast. 40 second reload.
01:35:19 So, like, by the time they finish their turn to try to close the gap and get torpedoes on you, you have, like, four torpedoes in the water that do 30,000 damage roughly. I almost forgot to mount modules and flags. Oh, I almost forgot to put a commander on. I'm glad I beat you this. Ladies and gentlemen, we are professionals. Do not try this at home. You can tell I don't play a lot of Tier 7. Oh, my goodness.
01:35:56 Ja, CVs ist, glaube ich, der hack ist, um die Stade aus Flares zu bekommen. Du wirst nicht spottet. Ja, aber es ist auch nicht sehr hilfreich. Wenn du ein Min-Mechs kannst, vielleicht, weil du kannst etwas zuerstellen. Ich denke, wenn du in ein wirklich Coordinated-Division bist, wo die Objektiv-Destroyer für dich, dann einfach den CV cleanst du dich. Ja, damit alle anderen können focussen. Das ist eine Sache, die ich notice.
01:36:25 Anytime you focus on the objective destroyers or the forts to a bit of a lesser degree, you're kind of actively causing harm because you're letting other more dangerous stuff live. Yeah. But that's a prioritization of targets thing for me. You'd love to CV farm the Musashi while you actually finish the secondary objectives too. Yeah, that is true.
01:36:52 Free Enterprise from a crate? Congratulations, that's one of my favorites. I love the rockets on that thing, actually. I think Enterprise is the only CV that retains the 12-plane rocket squad size that all the other CVs used to have when the V-Work first released. She has really good fighters, too, if I remember right. Yes, she has very nasty fighters. I think she has more fighters in her squad, and they also have a larger patrol radius. Yep.
01:37:17 I think that's kind of keeping the flavor of the RTS Enterprise, which had a lot of fighters in Sanger. It was actually impossible to win fighter duels versus Enterprise, like Shikaku, for example. Because it just never ran out. You could literally kill two Enterprise fighters for every one Shikaku fighter and still run out. I remember, too, the Saipan was really, really, really weird with fighters.
01:37:44 Because you could strafe. You could break lock and strafe. So you could strafe out of an engagement. Without losing a plane, only on Saipan. For those who do not remember, we're not around. CVs with the RTS view used to have the separately controllable fighter squads, right? And when they fought each other, they would lock on, right? And they would just kind of ghoul until one of them died. Did you just see the queue go for like four people to 17?
01:38:12 Battleships. Weil es alle in Chats like, oh, I'm gonna go get him! CVs could strafe to break out of those engagements, but when you did that, you would lose a plane. Yep. The Saipan did not lose a plane because it had very small capacity. Yep. So that kind of helped. It also had tier 10, part of the justification for it was like tier 10 planes at tier 7. Ooh. Because you had the Corsairs, you had the A-Hole Midway fighters back then. No, this is actually a perfect Brawl map for the Rodney.
01:38:41 Ja, das ist was ich zu sagen. Es ist ein Small Island Channel, wo alle einfach nur bowen. Problem ist, Rook kann eigentlich übermatch mich. Es hat es eigene Torpedos. Es hat es einen Torpedos. Oh ja, das ist richtig. Es hat es einen Torpedos. Es hat es einen Torpedos. Oh ja, das ist richtig. Es hat es einen Torpedos.
01:39:06 Have you ever seen the... Everything here has speed boost. That's incredible. To no one's surprise, Sharnhurst 43 is very popular. Lots of Sharnhurst 43s. You know, I just... There's other stuff that does what it does better, kind of, in the setting for some reason. It's just, everybody has one. Yeah. Because everybody got one last Christmas. And it has the torpedoes, it has the secondaries, it goes fast. The gun power's a little bit meh.
01:39:37 Ja, es hat sich eine lange Zeit gemacht.
01:39:51 I forgot how a sleek Sharn looks. Very nice looking shirt. Oh, sad Rodney noises. I had 80 loaded on a broadside Rook. This guy is turned away in Brawl. Heresy. Come back. Can't do that. You're supposed to Brawl. That's poor Rook. He is the closest target. He's also broadside. Not sure if I can load AP fast enough here.
01:40:19 Ich habe fünf Sekunden left. Kommt, 406s. 406, ich wähle Sie. Oh. Ich habe 7 Pen für 8k damage. Feels bad. Yep, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist, das ist.
01:40:51 Ricochet. Awesome. I hit his anchor to give him extra armor. Ooh, I might be eating torpedoes. Um, num, num, num, num, num, num. One. I should get my torps off here before he rams me, I hope. Oh, it's not going to be enough to kill him. I'm in a kind of awkward position here. Are we bad at this? This is hard. Oh, no, I'm going to kill him right here.
01:41:24 Boop. Oh, I might be able to turn the ramp here. I wasn't even looking at him and I got him. What do you know? Bad Legion noises. All mine. Oh, he might actually reload his torpedoes before I get close enough with the ramp. I don't think so. He's turning to the left. He's not going to have time. Oh, come on. Come on. No, he's going to accelerate away. No. Nope, you're going to get him. Oh, he's so close, so close. Yep, you got it. Bonk. Bonk.
01:41:56 Come back, I just want a hug. Boo. Sad Rodney noises. No torpedoes for you, sad. The only reason to play it is just getting that one super satisfying torpedo hit. I kind of want to try it now. I might take it. Absolutely should. Then we can just... Double Rodney action. Let's see. Ooh. Torpedo jousting Rodneys. Would be a very silly training room mode. I also...
01:42:26 Meine Wife und ich und ich haben jetzt schon seitens von Venture Bros. und so, wenn ich von Rodney sehe, ich denke, ich denke, wie Action Man. Amazing. Rodney nicht wirklich hat Secondaries zu sprechen, richtig? Es ist nicht wert, dass die Torpedos sind, weil die Torpedos sind deine Secondaries, weil es hat die Aufmerksamkeit auf die Rear, die einfach nur, äh... Very Italian.
01:42:51 Let's go for the usual survival build then, I guess. Probably don't need... I mean, I'm just using my standard Cunningham build for survivability, and then I think I'm using, yeah, just accuracy, acceleration, and survivability.
01:43:15 Ich mache es ein Meme und ein Flooding Flag. Ich werde nicht vergessen, die Ramm Flag für Brawl. Oh, um... Definitely nicht me adding it. Oh, ich habe es bereits. Success! Ich habe nur 10 left. Ich habe keine Ramm Flag. Ich habe keine Ramm Flag. Ich habe keine Ramm Flag. Ich habe keine Ramm Flag.
01:43:43 Für den Rodney, es hat Unterwater Torpedo Tubes, wenn ich es richtig. Und sie haben die Torpedo Turing Mechanik, so Sie können sie mit einem straight Balfourts launchen. Wenn Sie wollen über weirden Designs und warum sie nicht weitergegangen sind, die Unterwateren Battleship Torpedos sind eine solche Technologie. Sie haben eine Weak-Spot unter Ihren Water-Line gegeben. Das ist nicht, wo Sie wollen, was es zu sein, auf die Battleship zu sein.
01:44:12 A shell hitting your torpedo loaded on your underwater torpedo tubes and getting a very big boom under the water line. Well, the mining effect exists, too. So, like, a shell will go underwater, detonate, and create, like, a concussion. And so, like, there is no way that your rolled homogenous Krupp steel, cemented steel belt is gonna give faster than your exterior or interior torpedo tube door.
01:44:38 Es ist einfach nur eine Weak-spot. Ja, wenn man eine Niermiss von einem Bomben oder einem Schell fällt, die Mining-Effekt fällt, ein Schock-Waves durch die kleine Schiep-Metal-Torpedo-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube-Tube
01:45:01 Who thought of that? Let's make a hole under our ship's waterline so we can launch big things with explosives on them from our battleship. I don't know, but it was pretty universal. Everybody kind of had that idea. Almost all the early battleships had them.
01:45:16 Like, crazy to think about. By the end of World War II, all of the battleships that existed did not have torpedo tubes, probably for a reason. And all of the USN cruisers, for the most part. Yeah. Well, their reliability on deck. Yeah. A lot of people kind of, I think, don't think about it. I don't think about it when it comes to depth charges in real life, either. Like, how much of a liability was actually having your depth charge racks set up? Probably a pretty big liability. It's a huge liability. A shell hits that, and whew.
01:45:45 Just gone. I had to imagine most of the time depth charters were just kept locked up. And not actually just out on the deck. In the racks? I'm not entirely sure. Because if you're doing ASW, I think you would have to depend on your setting. I would assume if you're running Convoy Duty, you would have them out and ready. But if you're expecting to be in a surface action in the near future, you probably don't want them laying around. Well, there's different ready conditions. So for us, even just...
01:46:13 I said, just infantry. You have different weapon ready conditions depending on what your expectation is. I have to imagine it's probably the same with something like depth charges.
01:46:24 And I love that like, hey, we're having trouble, like, when we just dropped death charges behind the ship, like, it's not doing well enough to create a large enough surface area in our pattern to guarantee hits. Let's just build this tube and yeet it off the side with a super makeshift-y strappy piece. We need to throw them further. Yeah. Man, what were those? It's crazy. Hedgehogs became a thing.
01:46:58 Oh, yep, I forgot how silly the Rodney's Torpedo Arcs actually are, and it's, like, actually is entirely straightforward. Yeah, it's nearly 180 degrees off the bow. Incredible. This might be a little bit more of an awkward map to actually put the torpedoes to use, so there's all that wide open space. It's not ideal, but, like...
01:47:22 If we force them into a crossfire. And just stay away from these Colorado guns. Actually the flint is going to be a bit of a problem. Yeah, that's actually not ideal. Because it's going to beat us into the cap and smoke. Or just farm us. Eh.
01:47:43 Ich meine, wenn er IFAG hat, kann er eigentlich überall pen us. Ja. Das ist ein bisschen ein Problem. Oh, da er ist. Geh'em. Geh'em, wir können ihn sehen. Hi, buddy. Oh, ich habe nicht gemacht, in der Zeit. Ich habe einen Überpen. Ja. Geh'em und take a blind shot hier.
01:48:10 Oh, 3 pens and 1 overpen, so solid 10k off of him. Is he still shooting? Also, I just launched some torpedoes at him. So, launch one towards the Shornhorst. Gonna keep trying to blind fire him. Me too, I have done 1 overpen's worth of damage so far this man.
01:48:37 Oh, no. Oh, wow. Oh, it beat it. Yeah. Next shot out. Hey, you got a Citadel. That's another 11k off of him. He still looks like he's just backing up casually. Might be running it too far forwards here. You absolutely are. Wow, that is the most wall-eyed salvo I've had in a while. Hey, I got an overpen. I'll take it. That's 1,000 hit points. Oh, I was actually kind of close to landing a torpedo on that Sharn.
01:49:06 Ich denke, die Colorado hat sich plötzlich herausgefunden hat, dass ein Torpedo ist, auch.
01:49:18 Oh, turn flat to me, turn flat to... I'm just gonna make the turn broadside of the Colorado now, so I don't get ported by the Sharn. Excuse me what? You're gonna turn broadside to the 16-inch guns, so... You did just shoot me, I think I have enough time. You will see. Ten seconds till I can force this guy. I guess there's one way to find out. Oh, yeah, we will find out. The good news is your Citadel isn't literally the entire size of your ship. Oh, he's gonna get inside the torpedo arming distance. No! Go.
01:49:48 Das ist sad. Oh, und der Torpedos ist arm. Ich habe das Rodney extra-large Torpedos arm. Ihr Torped wurde hier. Na, na, na. Oh, er hat's off. Das ist fine. Ich werde meine Bowen und ich werde. Oh, no. Ich bin in Colorado, doch. Er, er, er hat mich. Oh, get the flint, get the flint. Get him. The heal running? Oh, no. I didn't even notice that he was going to torp him.
01:50:27 Ich denke, er will nur die. Oh, das AP auf die Flin ist, das RUINING ME. Ja, das Rondy ist sehr soft und squischt. Even die Nemic pen auf den 127s. Das ist lustig, das ist lustig. Das war nicht mein Finest Brawl. Es war ein Brawl. Glad our Scharnhorst did something. Ja. Thanks für die Carry. Yukon might be interesting. Will he advance Pen Angles?
01:51:02 Collingwood? I mean, I don't think you gain any benefit. Nah, it's a little bit too squishy, yeah. Is there one of those silly Royal Navy Cruisers? Good player, those are all at Tier 8. I think those are all at Tier 8. Yeah, like Nottingham and everything is Tier 8 or up. Rodney has killer been personified, and we got to announce it on the N8 stream. I'm gonna give Rodney another shot.
01:51:46 He still doesn't let us live that down. I think it will hold that grudge forever. Well, I mean, the Brits forgave us for making the biggest cup of tea, so hopefully they can forgive us on this. They did get over that eventually.
01:52:04 Ich weiß nicht, ob es für Port-Find-A-Ship-By-Name ist, dass es eine Schiff-Name-Search funktioniert. Ich weiß nicht, ob es einfach nur ein Schiff-Name-Search funktioniert. Ich weiß nicht, ob es einfach nur ein Schiff-Find-A-Ship-By-Name ist. Ich weiß nicht, ob es einfach nur ein Schiff-Find-A-Ship-Find-A-Ship-By-Name ist. Ja, das stimmt. Das ist etwas, was wir immer versuchen zu verbessern.
01:52:35 Das ist eine Sache, wie wir wissen, was die Probleme sind mit der UI. Wir werden oftmals überrascht werden.
01:52:53 Halifax port would be pretty cool Halifax would be cool I don't know where was primary shipbuilding in Canada chat can you answer that because I don't actually know definitely not my area of expertise it might have been for the small ships because they produced World War II they were producing predominantly the flowers and I think those were in Halifax Montreal okay
01:53:20 Ja, ich hatte ein Banger von der Zeit in Halifax. Das war viel Spaß. Ja. Das war, um... Ich hatte mein Bodyweight und Poutine während ich da, was ein Challenge.
01:53:35 I haven't had poutine in a long time. Ravage didn't let me get away without eating a Donair while I was up there as well. Really? Oh yeah. Well, because I talk about Donair Kebab quite a bit as one of my favorite post-bar foods when I lived in Germany for a few years. Was it decent up there? I mean, it has a different sauce. It has kind of like a sweet sauce, so it's a little bit different. It's good.
01:54:04 Würde recommend.
01:54:08 Yes, I did manage to go see Sackville. Not just see Sackville, but actually get on her and go in depth and hang out in areas that you typically... The extra special tour? Yeah. Well, I mean, it's hard to say extra special tour because it's not like Wisconsin where there's more ship than you can see in a day. It is a fairly small ship, but of course it's a map that Rodney is suited for. But yeah, I got a chance to go see Sackville, talk with a lot of the staff there who were incredible.
Museumsbesuche und Zusammenarbeit mit Museen
01:54:3701:54:37 Und wirklich, es war ein tolles Trip. Vancouver war viel Spaß, aber ein paar Leute und nicht ein paar historicalen Shippen. Halifax ist densely packed mit Museums. So, ein meiner side-gigs in Wargaming ist Museum Kontakts in Nordamerika, das bedeutet, dass ich ein sehr cooles Content habe und ein sehr guter Kontakts habe. Es war ganz schön.
01:55:04 Ja, genau. Ich arbeite für eine Pixel Boat-Games-Special-Tour. Wir bekommen das ein wenig zwischen uns. Es ist ein sehr naturales Collaboration, richtig? Ja. Das ist eine unglaubliche Zeit, um zu sprechen über Naval Museum Atlas zu sprechen, weil ich nicht so glaube, dass wir es für eine Zeit haben. Aber wenn ihr alle getrennt, dann geht es um das an. Wir arbeiten mit unseren Museum Partnern, um ein Who's Who zu tun, um ein Who's Who zu sehen. See where your closest Museumship ist.
01:55:34 Ja, ihr könnt ihr closest Museum ship finden, ihr könnt alle der Ticket Info und Details finden, ihr könnt ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt, ihr könnt.
01:56:01 Eine Sache ich bin, dass wir nicht wirklich für Industrie waren, nach dem Krieg waren, also wir haben noch ein paar Stunden. Ja, der US war sehr glücklich, in der wie viele, wie viele, wie viele, wie viele, wie viele, wie viele, wie viele, wie viele, wie viele, wie viele, wie viele, wie viele, wie viele, wie viele, wie viele. Ja, ich denke, das ist eine sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr, sehr.
01:56:25 So many torpedoes. West Virginia 44, that is a bold choice and one that can absolutely devastate me, so I'm just gonna rush him. Get him? Well neither, these two have torpedoes and the Sharn horse spent his. I almost put my torpedo into our family Sharn. I mean, it is a Sharn, it's the wrong one, but it's still a Sharn.
01:56:50 Oh, they managed to get clear of each other in time. Torpedo's gonna miss. I'm gonna turn, and the Strausberg and Weevy are just gonna ruin me. I'm gonna start trying to work down the... Oh, is he getting rammed? Oh, he's gonna get the ram off. Uh-oh. 1v1 versus the kiting Weevy. Well, the 406 is against each other. You have 10k Tor...
01:57:17 Ja, ich werde... Du kannst ihn als er rausknen. Er ist zu schnell zu gehen. Ich habe zu eigentliche Bewerbungen, das könnte ein bisschen schwierig sein. Oh, du willst einfach nur auf mich, auf dich? Ich kann mich, auf dich, auf dich, auf dich, auf dich, auf dich.
01:57:44 Nope. Well, he's just making sure that he can only keep his rear targets on me. Yeah. I mean, if nothing else, that's a win. He's got two guns to your six. And both of you overmatch, so. Yep. Gonna turn the other way to get the torpedo off again. Oh, oh. Double fire again. Oh my goodness. What? His secondaries are lighting a lot of fires on me. It's actually rather annoying.
01:58:17 He's getting over pens. I mean, the good news is he's not getting... Oh, he actually turned so far over that he's actually going to dodge both torpedoes. He's going to dodge a corpse, yeah. But he's also flat to you now, so he might be able to waterline him. I'll get a good reload here. And get three pens. Okay. He actually did more damage to my bow than I did to him. Sad.
01:58:40 Not gonna say it's a bad trade, but that was a pretty bad trade. Double fire with the secondaries again. Oh, I'm overturning, I'm overturning. No, no, no, no, no, no. Oh, he's gonna reload before the truck hits. Oh, yes. I had to be cutting it close. Oh, you're so lucky.
01:59:04 Ja, so Texas also is noteworthy right now, finding a keeper, because she's not open to the public yet. Still undergoing. Yeah, we'll absolutely let everybody know she did find a final home. They're going to keep her down there in Galveston. So that'll still be our hometown hero, kind of, alongside Lexington and Corpus Christi. But, yeah, she's still getting fixed.
01:59:32 Ja, und ... ... ... ...
02:00:01 So, putting plates over existing steel. But then you basically just have corrosion attacking the metal from two directions. And that doesn't really fix anything.
02:00:12 Wenn Sie versuchen, die Grand Voyage zu gehen, Sie werden eine Ankerkontakt und nichts passiert, ist es eine fixe. Ich würde kontakt CS, wir haben ein paar reports wie das. Wenn Sie kontakt CS und Sie bekommen ein Wargaming Check Report von Ihrem Wargaming Launcher, und vielleicht auch eine Netzwerk Diagnostik auf das, dann werden Sie helfen. Wenn Sie nicht wissen, wie ein Wargaming Check zu machen, CS wird es zu erklären.
02:00:36 Yep. But it is something we're trying to track down, so the more reports the better. Greatly appreciate it. And CS is aware of the issues, so they should have visibility, should be faster, take a resolution. I feel like this is only happening on this scene, on the gameplay scene. On the what? I'm not phasing through my chair on this scene, so I wonder if maybe somebody set up a filter on the... Ooh, interesting. Maybe that's why you look so young on that?
02:01:07 No, I just am, yeah. I'm a young and delicate flower. You secretly have the old age one on me. Um, you know? Only what Royal Sovereign might be interesting. Ooh. Royal Sovereign is the close quarters focused one, whereas Archangelisk is the long range one. So Royal Sovereign could be pretty good for roll. I have a 21 skill point. Of course you do. I'm good.
02:01:39 So sorry, man, I've never seen 21-point commanders before. I'm like, oh yeah, I only have like 110 of them. Actually, I've never counted mine. I bet I have a... Oh, I don't know how many I actually have. The problem is, like, I just keep adding to my port. I don't really get rid of anybody. And it doesn't tell you, like, how many you actually have. Actually, I didn't notice this, but Royal Sovereign has, like, the gun muzzle caps.
02:02:05 Whatever you want to call them. Does it import? Oh cool! Yeah, they have like a little seal on them. Yeah. Did they have to use like... I'm assuming they used compressed air to basically like... No idea.
02:02:24 Man, I have no idea how to build a secondary one for this. I think it has pretty decent secondaries. Yeah, but I'm trying to decide, like, because of Torpedo Proliferation, like, Vigilance? Is that worthwhile? For a Brawl-specific build, probably. I mean, but more important than Grease the Gears? I don't know! I mean, you bring the turret reverse time from 36 to 30 seconds, which is like... It's alright.
02:02:49 Ich meine, du kannst du Concealment Expert für sicher. Ich meine, du kannst du nicht so viel Torpedo Damage Reduktion von 16 bis 23 bis Vigilance. Ja. Close Quarters Combat, doch. Das ist das, was ich habe da jetzt. Und dann wahrscheinlich, man, Adrenaline Rush oder Basics of Survivability. Ich denke, für Brawl, ich würde etwas wie dieses.
02:03:23 Let's see. Hold on. Yeah, I think for... You probably don't need Grease the Gears. You think? What else would you use instead then? Vigilance? Yeah, I think you just suck it up, throw Vigilance on there. I think I would actually take something like this. That's very close to mine. The only thing that's different is I have Grease the Gears instead of Vigilance. Yeah.
02:03:51 We're just about out of time, but do you want to run it one more? Yeah, we'll run down one more. Brawls are nice and quick, so... I don't want to try the ship out. Oh no, I don't have... Targeverse? Yeah, it's only 36 seconds, so... I think with 36 second Targeverse, you don't really need Grease of the Gears. It would still be nice to have, but definitely not as necessary as like...
02:04:14 The battleships with 45 second turret reverse are god forbid the Yamato. One minute turret reverse. The unique mod Yamato is kind of pain.
02:04:30 You can go to armory.worldofwarships.com or depending on what your region is either armory.worldofwarships.com or .eu or .asia and access the Armory that way out of client. So if you're having troubles with it in client it can always be worth trying it in your web browser. If you look too it might be a local cache issue that you can just do like incognito mode or something through the browser. That might solve it.
02:04:56 A lot of the local, there's so many differences between ISPs and providers and systems and everything. I'm not in a good position to provide any kind of tech support, but usually when I have trouble, that's my first thing. I'll just check if using a cashless system will help. I'm certainly not a network expert. No. And you actually know literally nothing about it.
02:05:24 It's a gun plug with expandable wood and a bolt through to a squirt on the outside so it does not fall out. Awesome. I thought somebody knows what it is. Abrams, if I remember right, Abrams has like a rubber cap. You like put over the muzzle. And so it's effectively like shoot through because it basically provides no resistance. Like a sabot round is going right through that. A sabot is not going to care. We had some too for our rifles. Like you can cap the muzzle.
02:05:54 I never had one on mine, because I would just shoot through it on the range. So what? Just forget to take it off. Yeah, just be like, you know what, I'm fine. Oh, it's always funny. You fire like the first few rounds, too, you see something like Blackfly in up in the air, you're like, I wonder what that, oh, man. I know exactly what that is. Nice.
02:06:24 Going to Fall River tomorrow, we'll be passing Battleship Cove in Big Baby. Awesome. I haven't been to Battleship Cove in a while, actually. I used to go there really often growing up, because it was literally 10 minutes away from me. Yeah, I'll have to go back there at some point. I might just shoot HE. Yep, I'm going to be a filthy HE spammer.
02:06:52 Battleship Cove, man. I really want to get up there to Camden. I haven't seen New Jersey yet. Yep. I've only seen one of the Iowas. Lots of really cool ships in that area. I forgot. This thing has submarine surveillance and short range hydro search. Submarine surveillance is definitely going to be very useful in this one. Totally. Absolutely. Can't do without it. I actually might keep AP loaded and just go for the crossfire here.
02:07:22 We'll see. They do tend to push down from this. When you're on the four line, you usually can get some decent cross shots, but what do they have? That's right. Heinrich Scharnhorst. Hopefully I can just knock out the torpedo tubes. That's kind of my goal here. Yeah. A lot to do in this update. There certainly is. Yep. Lots of new operations. The next update is going to keep it going.
02:07:50 I feel like we've got quite a sprint of updates kind of lined up. Yeah, it's one of those things, it's kind of a natural response of like, we are finally kind of in stride after everything from February of 2022. We're finally like...
02:08:08 We have experienced teams. Our staff, we're local pickups in Belgrade, are doing really well. We've got the right people in LiveOps now. Man, we can finally start doing the stuff we wanted to do for a while that we've had to shell while we got all the teams back up to speed. I do have two German battleships running straight at me. I wish I could help, except I'm going to die.
02:08:37 You're going to die. I'm going to die.
02:08:43 Scharn 43 is too powerful. Oh dear, I'm taking a lot of damage, actually. Yeah, I thought the Rodney was squishy, and I also remember that this basically is just a Queen Elizabeth. So much secondary fire. I see two fires in my near future. Yep, there they are. I just keep getting one fire over and over and over again, which I feel like is worse, because I never actually damage control party.
02:09:15 Oh, there's two fires. I actually might be able to accelerate past these torfs. Ooh, I wonder if... Such an underwhelming AP. Oh, yep. You are already dead. I'm super dead. Alright, well, there we go. Alright, Royal Sovereign. Not a great choice.
02:09:36 Might just be a little bit too squishy. Royal Sovereign for Arctic combo, yeah, it was, the secondaries were decent. Hey, I got one. Hey. We're decent on there. The postmortem fire. I think, like, Denim was good. Duke of York was my personal favorite for the mode. Does Heinrich have torpedoes? And then, like, Belfast was hilarious. Buscavice was shockingly useful. Oh, no. Oh, I shouldn't. Riff. If I'd kept going full speed, I might have been able to turn past that. I don't know why I slowed down.
02:10:05 Well, I think we have to end it on a loss here. Ah, that's okay. Yeah, Royal Sovereign. Probably not built for brawls versus German battleships. No. Unfortunately, it's just too squishy. Like, the Heinrich has big enough caliber guns that it presents a major problem to you. Guys, you're DCPing one fire? I swear it was two. I swear. I'm gonna have to check the VOD. I'm pretty sure I DCPed two fires and it was just two fires instantly again.
02:10:34 We'll check the replay. We'll run it back. Check the tapes. Check the tapes.
02:10:41 All righty, I think that will do it for today. Yeah. A little bit past time, but having fun. I know I've got some hungry hound dogs at home that I'm sure will be happy to get fed. Always nice to see the happy doggos when you come home. All right. You're late. What did you miss? You missed everything, Clyde. Everything. You missed the entire stream, sir. It's okay, though, because we'll have another one next week. As always, we will see you guys next week for the next community stream. In the meantime...
02:11:10 Peace out. And I will find us a community contributor. Poor Clyde Place. We'll catch you next round. Bye for now.
