Does War Thunder have battleships yet or is it still PT boat fest?

War Thunder says they will never have anything bigger than a cruiser. I don't remember what their current excuse is but I'm sure it has something to do with Russian not having many if any larger ships to field in that time period capable of competing with the late navies of the other powers.
Also it's still basically a 1-hit kill torpedo fest / spraying mg and smaller cannon fire in the general direction of your opponent.
Blake Phillips
Can't they just exclude Russian ships?
Kayden Fisher
War Thunder naval is a meme just like the rest of the game. Play Rule the Waves if you want a game that actually has realistic naval combat.
Eli Brooks
They definitely don't adhere to a time-frame to fit vehicles into
Hell, they fucking added the PG-03 to the Japs with that fucking minigun with APDS rounds that's only like 3.0 BR
They WILL add Battleships eventually and you'll have WW2 German Battleships fighting Cold War era Russian Battleships, just like how right now with tanks Tiger 2's almost always come up against fucking T-54's, T29's and all the vehicles that have HEAT or APDS at that 6.7-7.7 BR

Surprised they havent pulled some paper battleship out of their asses and given the totally balanced nuke cannons, guess they were busy getting drunk and making the chinese tech tree out of vehicles from all over the fucking place instead of shoving the soviet chinese knockoffs into the soviet trees and give a camo to allied and japanese vehicles pressed into chinese service.
Brayden Turner
To be fair, China should have never been added. Realistically China would have absolutely shit-tier units all the way until the 1990s and everything before that tier would just be Soviet and American hand-me-downs

Gotta get at those juicy Chinese shekels somehow, though.

The Russian navy was such a fucking meme. The Regia Marina was larger, more capable, and did a hell of a lot more in the Mediterranean than a bunch of drunk vatniks on their shitty destroyers did in the Black Sea.
Hudson Hernandez
There actually WAS a Chinese version of Warthunder that only people in China (or VPN) could access that had the Chinese tech tree
It either went under or barely any people play it so Gaijin decided to bring the tech tree to the regular servers. But people are sick and fucking tired of the same vehicles even if it's historical.
When you've ground out your fucking 5th different tech tree Sherman (US, French, Italian, UK, Chinese) it's gotten incredibly stale by that point

who do you think plays these garbage games?
who do you think makes them?

Reminder you can get a free premium cat camo for Bismarck by completing 4 easy missions before 16th October.
Details: worldofwarships.eu
Search for "Nine Lives of Unsinkable Sam". Once you clear all 4 parts you get the camo for Bismarck.
Andrew Sullivan
But I don't have Bismarck...
Matthew Jones
Neither do I, but I will get Bismarck eventually. That won't stop you from getting the camo though and it is most likely only available now.
Jayden Rodriguez
I just checked. You can get Bismarck, Ark Royal or Cossack from container, but I'm not confident in my luck...
Adam Hill
True. But did you scroll down a bit it also says in green text:
>Final Reward: permanent Unsinkable Sam camouflage for Bismarck.
Just above their screenshot.

Why do people play this mode?
Justin Murphy
I heard the AI in combat is completely retarded in rule the waves.
Michael King
I just wanna slug it out fleet to fleet with big ships without torpedo spam and suicide bombers. Why won't they let us?
Xavier Davis
Heavy Cruisers are in
>Not RtW2
Luis Lee
i haven't played this shit game since october 2016 and don't regret not going back. Keep adding more stupid shit and advanced planes. Il-2 has 10 times the amount and you don't need to pay for them.
William Wood
Is World of Warships any good? How is it compared to World of Tanks?
Jayden Murphy
Same thing, same experience but with naval vessels. Way better than the half assed naval mode in War Thunder though.
Brody Evans
slower paced and more relaxing
but just like wot, rng and teammates can be infuriating
Josiah Price
Much better than World of Tanks. You can always be useful in combat regardless of the map you get, unlike in WoT that heavily favor some classes depending on the map. There is no bullshit artillery that requires no skill. The closes would be Aircraft carrier but even that requires more skill and you can counterplay, such as grouping up to form a AA bubble or dumping smoke e.t.c.
There's also no gold ammo in Warships. While you can buy gold ammo in Tanks for credits, only those who have premium account and/or premium vehicles afford to use them liberally.
There are no corridor maps, you have a lot more freedom of movement and the ability to flank the opponent.
There's no bullshit renderer limit, if the enemy is spotted and it is in range of your cannons you can fire at them. Just don't expect to hit a lot if you're firing from maximum range.

Rip all the 8's out and replace them with 5's, use weight saved for actual armor.

I recommend From the Depths. You get to design your own shit
