Im a cruiser player from the very beginning, thats all I played for 2 years and I will give what I think is the biggest problem for most of them take it or leave it. It is the first 5 minutes of matches, the dds roll out with us between them and the bbs. If the dd smokes when spotted(usually the same time a cruiser gets spotted further back but worse conceilment) you start getting focused on by every enemy. At that point the fruendly bbs have already started moving latterally so they are keeping their distance staying concealed and refusing to fire back at any ships because they want to remain undetected or other bbs shooting at your cruiser are still too far away for friendly bbs to hit. This scenario occurs constantly with the only option is not advancing foward to support your lead dd which is also not good for the team. I learned the hard way to play cruisers by playing the Japanese line(no smoke, no radar, no speed boost)for 2 years, nothing else. As soon as I played BBs it bacame easy mode for me, a whole other game that made me realize the best cruiser players are the best players in the game because you learned trial by fire.
@Jerry-LZ5 ай бұрын
Also to point out the other big issue that is even shown in this videos first clip right away - there’s too many battleships to deal with. 6 per team is a normal match up. Everyone wants to play a battleship now. Secondary problem is they shoot further than you so it’s not like you can easily fight back without over extending and getting yourself in a bad position. So you have a bulk of the enemy team that can hit you but you can’t hit them. Zao was my first cruiser too 👍🏼

Someone told my team that Yodo was not good, and not to play the line after I had suggested it to a few of our teammates. So the next clan battle the opposing team had two Yodo's, and I kept telling my guys to kill it kill it kill it now. they didn't listen to me, and those two Yodo's killed half of our team. JMHO, the Yodo is highly underrated, and if not removed quickly will rip you to pieces with it's 18 guns and multiple 15k Torpedos... What two of them can do in tandem is actually rather scary.
@Stephen__White6 ай бұрын
I feel it makes the most sense to call the French and Dutch Battle Cruisers, Battle Cruisers. It seems a Battle Cruiser becomes a "Cruiser" if it has 330mm guns or smaller, but larger than 254mm at top tier. Meanwhile Battle Cruisers become "Battleships" if they have guns larger than 400mm at top tier. Both have effectively the same armour, and both fill the same role on a team. So it's fair to call both "Battle Cruisers". Basically large enough guns to crush other Cruisers, and fast enough to run away from anything their own size. Also I rather like the Dutch Cruisers, full AA build on Gouden Leeuw is funny and the air strikes are rather effective even without legendary mod. I've also never had the biggest issue with her guns ether, even though I've heard a lot of people complain about them.

It would be rather tricky to do now as they already have at leat 2 versions of the Graf Spee as premiums. I suppose they could still add Scheer and Lützow and mix them up to cover a couple of tiers but then they would be literally making up designs to build a tree. I don't think any further design work was done on the concept as they were no longer bound by the displacement limits that inspired the design in the first place. EDIT: I suppose I should do some more research before posting. It seems there were actually 2 succeeding classes of paper designs (the "D" and "P" classes). Not much is known about them but they did exist.

Um SeaLord a little Addendum. US Cruisers don't get their Heavy Shells until tier 8, just like the US battleships. The MAIN feature of the entire line however is their Superior Pen Angles, I forget the exact degree (I want to say you can get pens at like a 70-75 degree angle) But US Cruiser shells BITE at angles that every other Cruiser line would otherwise BOUNCE at. Additional notes for US Heavy Cruisers, The Pensacola and New Orleans both are sporting 25mm plating these days, thus they can face tank 14inch shells (very common at tier 6 and 7).

Good review. With current meta, RNG, and the RPS lottery, I find most of the cruisers you mentioned difficult to play. Some of the difficulty is my average skill level. The MM seems to take cruiser slots for BBs, CVs, and subs. Tier VIII most games is one of sudden death. I would like to see your take on premium that are available using the various currencies, and the few that were dockyard ships.

I spend 75% of my time in them facing tier ix and tier x, can't get close enough to shoot anything, barely see anything, and barely scratch anything. The most miserable things I play other than that POS Cachalot I sold. The enemy literally has 6K-10K more range, and sees you at nearly twice the distance. The Baltimore sucks, the rate of fire is bad, accuracy is bad, all it has is an extra 6,000 hit points to give the enemy credits. At least the Cleveland has a decent rate of fire. And absolutely nothing else.
