wows california vs florida
She is to Arizona what Alabama is to Massachusetts & North Carolina-- entirely forgettable and an unfortunate waste of money for worse game play. I love my standards -- I love them to death. I'd actually rather get California, because she's an extension of a ship type (US Standards) thatI have played a lot and really enjoy. California epitomizes the state that chose harsh conformity instead. But that requires changes well beyond the skill tree, because if we went back 4+ years - sure Germany would still be king of secondary builds with it's 15 cm guns, but French and even ships like Mass would terrorize DD's and cruisers pushing in to caps with secondaries only worried about not getting torped for sailing in a straight line than 152 mm raining death from behind an island - unless it was aiming at the superstructure. Same with cruisers - they didn't have to cower behind islands like now, they could fire and fade away. Please be aware that her performance may change in the future. Without allies to road-block, California will be run down, sneaky or not. Shots are coming in from right to left with Fuso bow-tanking. (Arizona has a strip of 37mm armour above her belt while California's upper hull is only 26mm). They need radar to have some limitation - be it not going through rocks or only working for the ship using it (and only mini map spots for the team). The 0.8 second faster reload still does not make her feel like she has anything but a painfully slow rate of fire. WebThats a ship that was designed with this exact style of combat in mind, and I would buy the shit out of a BC Lexington. You have to be dynamic with shell choice. It could be worse, I suppose. Florida basketball got back on the winning track on Tuesday night with a 77-67 win over the Georgia Bulldogs on the road in the penultimate regular-season game for the Gators. This means, gunnery wise, you're paying more money for a worse experience. By Same is true for Ashitaka of course (or Time to load up on bath salts and eat the faces of cruisers. The only Florida Ive seen in Narai was deleted 3 minutes in somehow. I was curious about this ship as i really love playing Arizona. I love playing Arizona but i won't pay to have it at tier 7. This doesn't look like Florida played solid defense throughout the night, holding Georgia to 33.3 percent from the field and 18.2 percent from 3-point range (4-of-22) while recording 8 steals and 6 blocked shots. Overall, the ships are very comparable in terms of their protection and durability. Thanks (again) for this review. Looking at the charts, i'm surprised how average Poltava is. Great work . as usual. The totals have gone OVER in 3 of Queens' last 5 games. WHEN: Monday, Feb. 27, 7 p.m. She has excellent AA firepower. While tier VI carriers have to respect your AA firepower they can still strike you. In short, my guess is that Florida will do great in the only Tier 7 OP we currently have, although there are better choices. This means for California to be worth her price tag, she's gotta make it up elsewhere. These weapons are not worth upgrading any more than you would find it worthwhile to upgrade North Carolina's or Alabama's secondaries. Every CL which sneak at you can pen you for days. The perks they gave her to compensate, namely good AA, nice range, good concealment and more accurate guns, don't cut the mustard for me. I have always been enjoying your reviews, LittleWhiteMouse. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbooks lines around the North Carolina vs. Florida State odds, and make our expert college basketball picks, predictions and bets.. North Landing citadel hits against enemy battleships tends to fall off at ranges over 14km or so, but you should still be able to land penetrating hits through most belts you'll encounter. For me, Lyon is the best BB for Narai, Ashitaka being the second, due to their speed and DPM. The uptick was led by a spike in homicide. In closing, I should stress again: Florida is fine. She's not broken. There will be some people who really dig her sniper game play. I'm not one of those people. I like to have the option of getting in close and hitting people with my sword. Florida doesn't let me do that. When Florida was first announced, I thought she would immediately obsolete California. I tore California a new one a few months ago for being not worth the asking price. While I do feel that Florida is a superior vessel to California, I don't feel that she's worth it either. Frankly, you're better served picking up Arizona at tier VI or even Alabama at tier VIII instead of Florida. Let me stress this: I don't think Alabama is worth the asking price either, but I would definitely recommend her over Florida. She's more reliable, if dull. The best bang for your buck for American premium battleships is Massachusetts and she's been one of the best premiums you can buy if you're shopping for one. Her primacy isn't challenged by Florida in the least. With Black Friday a little over a month away, if you're in the market for Massachusetts, then you might want to wait a month and grab it when her Black version goes back on sale if you like the cosmetic difference. I don't mean to try and sell you on other ships, my point is simply that there are a lot better choices for your time and money than investing in Florida. Queens are 2-3 in their last 5 games. ATHENS Georgia basketball battled back but could not overcome its 12-point second half deficit to Florida. (37% damage reduction for Arizona vs 36% for California). For me, Ship Comrade allowed me to greatly increase the quality of my reviews. This long format, like you're seeing here with Florida, was facilitated entirely by having my content written for Ship Comrade. Critter8 encouraged CCs like myself and @Aetam to host our content on his site. As you can imagine, writing for a web-page is much more forgiving than writing for a forum post -- it didn't have to all be written in a single sitting, for example. In going over Ship Comrade's archives, it was a treat to watch how my reviews grew in size and ambition. My early reviews were usually written in an afternoon and seldom held more than four or five jpegs. Florida's review has nearly thirty and has been written over the course of a week.. Mouse, while knowledgeable, is subject to her own personal biases, likes, preferences, just like the rest of us. The moneyline odds say Florida has a 62.3% chance of winning this game. VERDICT: You would think that for a sniper-battleship, her guns would be fun. But they're not fun. I didn't have fun at all with these weapons (except for maybe paddling a lolibote or two at very close range. But so far CV's under the rework have mostly lacked that and are a farce. Jones Angell, play-by WG!!! Summary so far: California's agility is absolutely appalling and worse than it had to be. California's secondaries are crap and they didn't have to be. Double Down, Ohio! Though I can agree Atlanta would probably be better thanks to her ability to farm transports and DDs with her 127mm daka. Normally I'm not bothered by the napkinwaffe ships, hell some of my favorite ships in this game never left the blueprint stage. If you're struggling to see a difference in as clinical and sterile a trial as this, you have no hope of feeling the difference through normal game play. That just makes her easy meat for enterprising lolibotes.

The Florida at tier VII is based on the North Carolina-class of battleships as it was initially designed. After World War I, to stop the naval arms race that was raging between the different nations, multiple treaties were signed, including the Washington Naval Treaty of 1922 and the Second London Naval Treaty of 1936. Most of her teeth come from her 40mm Bofors and 20mm Oerlikons, barring a CV being gracious enough to face-plant into a flak-cloud. These do not survive long under HE fire and even cursory smattering of HE rounds will quickly reduce the effectiveness of her AA and open her up to the potential of air-attack. I'm getting a lot of mileage out of this graphic. This speaks a lot to how badly the skill system needs to be reworked given how optimized skill choices have become. Summary so far: California has absolutely amazing AA levels. California doesn't make up for her main battery gunnery with her secondaries. However, the larger map sizes makes this a lot more problematic. Florida Gov. I've sorted these by the formula of [ AA dps x { range - 1km} ]. It's not a perfect system but it does weight heavier, longer-ranged firepower over masses of short-ranged defence. The PvE-exclusive player doesn't appreciate a ship's strengths and vulnerabilities through the same lens as a KOTS finalist, for example, nor should they be expected to. If they don't want people comparing her to Arizona, Arizona needs to be pulled. What's more, California does not offer anything novel in the way of game play short of having better AA firepower. Florida man, Florida man Guess the tune. The following is a review of USS Florida, the tier VII American premium battleship. I did not pay fo Horrible gun handling and appalling gun firing angles. In particular, the Florida Keys is an excellent place to snorkel. We already got that game play and at a better price and matchmaking. My Dallas and Helena should have the same pen as my Cleveland and Seattle, with or without IFHE in the game. March 1, 2023 10:00 am CT. Auburn baseball plays Florida A&M on Wednesday evening, and if youre wondering how you can watch the action live, youve come to the right place. This is a booby prize in the current meta. I was looking forward to this review because I was unsure about if I was going to spend some dosh on Florida as a USN fan. I am endlessly grateful for the opportunity and help he provided for me. For personal reasons, he had to step back from World of Warships. As the CC program again got overhauled, Wargaming dropped his CC-status despite his continued efforts to host and support other CCs. Sadly, Ship Comrade was never a profitable enterprise. Donations helped keep the lights on for a time, but all things must come to an end. He ran the site out of his own pocket for over five years. I don't fault him in the least for retiring. You know it. Those are my sentiments to the silent warriors. They are truly the ones that really profoundly had (has) an effect to the mass public, unlike the affect the Whiskey Golf tries to show in their own efforts. The LSU Tigers womens basketball team strung together its second-straight win since a disappointing loss to South Carolina on Sunday, beating Florida on the road 90-79. However, she has enough problems already without considering CV strikes. The moneyline odds say Florida has a 62.3% chance of winning this game. In its win over Florida State on Monday night, UNC basketball set an all-time program record one that not many people probably saw coming. The last piece of her squishy puzzle is her effective health pool. Florida's hit point pool is small for a tier VII battleship. Heck, it would be on the low end for a tier VI battleship. This isn't enough to damn her in of itself -- she's not so low that she's on Viribus Unitis levels of parody. But a smaller hit point pool means that she heals less penetrating damage with her Repair Party. While this has no impact on fire and flooding damage (as their damage amount scales with the starting hit points of the ship), 10,000 damage worth of penetrations hurts Florida more than other tier VII battleships. But there's more. Florida comes with one fewer charges of her Repair Party, so this deficit is felt even more.. Florida played solid defense throughout the night, holding Georgia to 33.3 percent from the field and 18.2 percent from 3-point range (4-of-22) while recording 8 steals and 6 blocked shots. Irrelevant trivia time. There is a 16mm hidden plate dividing the upper and lower parts of Florida's citadel. The line of it can be found between her 285mm upper belt the 213mm of her lower belt. Build for fire-resistance first, then double back for your other skills. Sadly, Florida's HE are lacking. Their modest damage per-shell and slow reload might not be such a bad handicap if their fire chance was better, but her fire chance per shell is horrible. The 22% value she's shackled with is downright painful for such a slow rate of fire. Getting one permanent fire to burn is a feat, never mind doubling up. Her HE performance is so bad that I would happily recommend sticking with AP spam if it weren't for the aforementioned issue with angled and higher-tiered targets. It's stupid-important to be patient with your shots. Look for opportune targets where you can maximize her AP efficiency. You don't want to have to start spamming HE. Similarly, you don't want to force encounters where this is your sole option. Florida doesn't have the armour or hit points to facilitate trades against same-tier (or even tier VI) opponents. Blapping a full broadside of HE into an enterprising lolibote is hilarious, don't get me wrong -- her improved accuracy means that she easily can land four to six shells (or more!) Hell, if you're a fan of PVE you get an even better deal with most scenarios now being limited to tier VI these days. LittleWhiteMouse, October 12, 2020 in General Game Discussion. If I were to purchase one, Florida would get my money for sure., Whilst I appreciate the very solid review you have provided for yet another ship, I am far more appreciative of your last few paragraphs on @Critter8and the rest of you folks. LOCATION: Donald L. Tucker Center in Tallahassee, Florida. Her rudder shift time of 15.4s is the most remarkable thing about her and not in a good way. It's slow. Oh no you didn't! It goes on and on like this. Yes, yes, yes, this is all in the name of BALANS, tovarish, and Florida's gunnery is balanced. I just don't like it. HE pen on cruisers needs to be standardized beyond say national things like Germany having 1/4. Queens are 9-8 in their road games against the spread. California isn't fun to play and that's her greatest crime. You can find a Pow Wow somewhere close to you! She doesn't get access to Aiming Systems Modification 1 to reduce her main battery gun dispersion. Heres how you can watch Mondays game: UNC-FLORIDA STATE TV, RADIO, AND STREAMING INFORMATION. follow. She's missing an ice-breaker bow like the aforementioned German ships. It's worth being said: Arizona over-performs at her tier. NikoPower (of CorgiFleet fame). From those conversations, For me, Ship Comrade allowed me to greatly increase the quality of my reviews. This long format, like you're seeing here with Florida, was facilitated entirely by having my content written for Ship Comrade. Critter8 encouraged CCs like myself and, I am here and there every where and no where. I just came to read another review by LWM, and donot have Florida, but I have been farming in Narai since other farming OPs were taken down. I'm getting a lot of mileage out of this graphic. This speaks a lot to how badly the skill system needs to be reworked given how optimized skill choices have become, That would be great - but they'd have to actually fix the gameplay and change some ships to actually get us to a point there isn't just one optimized loadout.. As much as I would like to be excited about her range, she needs it or the ship simply doesn't work. I wish this could have meant more than it does. Despite constant suggestions to give her improved accuracy and/or range on her secondaries, Wargaming wouldn't budge on keeping them standardized. I know it. So there you go! Florida has a better secondary battery than California, equivalent to most of the other American battleships (but obviously excluding Massachusetts & company cuz theirs are souped up). experience with Arizona down at tier VI. You need to play a total of 20 battles to post in this section. Native Californian) but she is a slow girl relegated to sitting amongst the transports. Once you start stacking on any other flaws and they just become unpalatable -- and California's gun handling and reload are some pretty wonky flaws, especially when paired with her slow speed. WebFlorida has an improved dispersion formula, but poor sigma. Her secondary armament is divided into two gun types. The first is the twin 127mm/38 we're used to seeing on every American battleship. But these are supplemented by four single 127mm/38 turrets akin to what you might find on an American destroyer like Benson or Sims. This effectively gives her an eight-gun secondary broadside -- two fewer than you'll see on higher tiered American battleships like North Carolina, the SoDaks, the Iowa-sisters, etc, but it's right on par with California's battery. However, Florida manages to have the equivalent broadside to a ten-gun secondary battery like the higher tiered ships because most American twin 127mm/38 guns have an artificially lowered rate of fire and the singles have a boosted one. Check out this nonsense! I have spent a TON! Queens are 9-8 in their road games against the spread. Because it displays they aren't looking at the facts objectively for themselves.. So while California is an obvious gunnery upgrade over New Mexico, California is only a soft upgrade on Arizona. Her 27 knot top speed has the illusion of meaning something only because she's an American battleship. All other American battleships from tier VII and below cap out around 21 knots as their top speed. With the nerfing to American Standard-type battleship agility with patch 0.9.6 Florida's speed advantage is even more pronounced. Were she a battleship from any other nation, her 27 knot top speed would be unremarkable. So yes, Florida is faster than Colorado or California. Big deal. So is everything else at this tier. As good as California's lateral protection is, her big weak spot is her bow. Phenomenal AA power is watered down more heavily than American Lite Beer. That hurts given her inability to overmatch 25mm armour that's so commonplace within her matchmaking spread. The only thing to watch out for is if one your DD/CL uses smoke and hide all other ships, MO will target you and you don't want that with Florida's armor. The sales tax in Florida is 6% whereas in California it is 7.25%. Let's pretend Arizona doesn't exist. The problem with simply looking at DPM charts is that it assumes everything is not only 100% accurate, but also that all shells perform equally when they strike a target. It patently ignores two crucial elements: As Roma so painfully demonstrated, you can have gorgeous paper stats but if you simultaneously struggle to (a) hit a target and (b) get anything other than over-penetrations, then your experience is going to be hella inconsistent. Florida has her own struggles, but at least she's very consistent when it comes to landing hits. Florida uses battlecruiser dispersion -- the same found on ninja-accurate battleships like Thunderer. Sadly, this isn't paired with a god-tier sigma value. Florida has 1.7 sigma competed to 1.9 of Thunderer or 2.0 of Champagne, so she doesn't feel quite so accurate as some of the higher-tiered snipers. The lower sigma means that the occasional shell will still fly wonky, though the smaller dispersion area means this won't be as wildly askew as other ships. In short: Florida's accuracy is good. You should land more hits per volley than her contemporaries which should help mitigate some of her DPM issues -- not all of them, but some. Same old, same old. Catch the excitement and bet with Tipico! The biggest advantage here is her increased range with the rest largely being window-dressings. That fact has lingered with me but perhaps I can make her work better than most. i feel like its an insult to the playerbase that WG expects people to actually spend about 50 bucks on this garbage, truly a waste of devs time and money but isnt that par for the course with WG nowadays? 7.25 % some of my favorite ships in this game never left the blueprint stage lolibotes!
