I'm in absolute shock...
A video made by WG that's actually useful.
Gives good and valid advice, doesn't lie and covers A LOT of both basic and advanced game features.
Who ever was in charge of the script and idea behind this deserves a medal. A spark in the dark whoever you are
Thumbs up

[mralsace]

Let's be honest, this is the best quick guide on battleships ever made.

I don't think anyone has ever managed to show battleship guides in the same fashion as Wargaming did here, cuz they did it as simple and relatively easy to understand as possible.

That said, there are some other people who makes good battleship guides as well.

The camera shots are a totally different thing though, keep in mind.

[marutukus]

Good video guys, little late for a 7 years old game, but nevertheless helpful to new players (and lots of veterans I fear).

Keep going guys

[JohanVanCauwenberghe]

As a new WoW player learning all the time ... thanks for the series. :-)

[justinsimpleton]

Very good video. I would suggest tier 6 vessals to be used while discussing the features since most viewers looking for help have only grind ships to this tier before willing to get gud. Tier X is only a dream at this point.

[alexandarvoncarsteinzarovi]

If your KMS Bismarck & Tirpitz, you have good radar and pretty good AA, your torpedo protection is one of the best, and with your speed and guns speed you can act as a good line breaker, but stick with cruisers, and destroyers, submarines,
KMS Scharnhorst & Gneisenau, you have good guns, speed and radar, you have cruiser-like speed and can scout for your team but don't venture alone,
MN Richelieu, Jean Bart & Dunkerque, you have a lot of guns, you can hit damn man times, but your AA is lacking stick with destroyers & cruisers that have covered, hit them hard and don't let up,
USS North Carolina (BB-55), well balanced but works better with destroyers & cruisers as heavy hitters with good armor and speed but can double in as AA platforms, especially with the Atlanta class cruisers on you side
Iowa class battleships, great speed and good gun range, your more akin to a cruiser than a battleship, and your AA can help out the team but watch out for torpedoes, carrier can be your friends but don't let them stay in 1 place,
IJN Yamato & Musashi stick with the destroyers, light cruisers escorts & carriers and act as their bulwarks, don't head out solo, stick to the coasts, lets specialized AA destroyer and cruisers help you out, or carriers, avoid subs,

10% of BB experience is shown in this video
90% of BB experience is just being burnt and farmed by everyone

[tahzib]

funny how dispersion works now...no matter the distance a full salvo always becomes a shotgun dispersion with one or two lucky hits for minimal damage unless there's a premium captain on the helm that has dispersion penalty reduction...

[Xavagery]

Damn I thought the video was gonna be really bad but you guys did an amazing job on this one (especially the art team)

[legoseller]

These videos are very helpful, and entertaining to watch. Everyone should remember to not camp on the map border!

[eltonperez]

I like how royal navy designed some cool dreadnaught battleship but still looking for clase allace

[keller]

Roll out you battleship. Get spotted by cv or sub. Spend the whole game trying to not get killed by sub or cv. Realize that you have done little to help out your team because you were so busy dodging torps, dive bombers, skip bombers, and sonar pings. Then play ranked where there is just 6 vs 6 and a CV. Listen to your player base. Sooner or later the golden goose will be cooked.

[williamregal]

the Bismarck is by far my favourite ship to use :)

[JT-rrex]

BB‘s are cool, especially if you play a DD like shimakaze who just Throw 20 torps at a BB. And now Imagine having 4 DDs in the Enemy Team. Enjoy playing!!!

[gushterell]

Please improve the default settings. New players remain trash at the game because the intel that the game displays is nonexistent. Press + + + to increase mini map size. Click the cog wheel above the minimap -> Enable ship names -> Enable last knows position ->
Enable concealment ranges. Settings -> Alternative interface -> Full. These setting are so important to your decision making, no matter
your ship class. Im going to post this on every of you "how to" videos.

[khapho]

How to play battleship:
Well you dont, easy as that, unless players wanna be burn down alive in 5 - to minutes of the match.
In the curret state of the game HE Spaming is broken, useless AA and annoying submarine as hell.
Unless HE is nerfing, AA is getting better on BB, and as for the subs, what about increase the arming distance and spotting them to 1km - 1.8 km (like a normal torps from any ships), in that
way ship have better time to dogde them

[Kuhlmufka]

"current situation" nice choice of words sir

[tooterfishTV]

I thought, this whole time, my purpose in a battleship was to congratulate the other team for installing the game with free XP and a +1 to their KD.

[headandears]

BBs should go in groups (the more the better), be as far as possible from caps, hide behind islands because they are afraid of getting damage, espesially if they are targeted by enemy aviation - working tactics on the EU server
