Fun story, I citadeled a French cruiser with the secondaries on my Bismarck.

FDG’s accuracy is actually quite reasonable. I have little difficulty scoring good long range hits. I have not done the in-game testing for tier 9 bbs yet, but Death From Above’s research puts FDG’s dispersion at 68.8%. Not bad at all when one considers dispersion of other tier 9 bbs: Minnesota 68.0%, Musashi 64.4%, Iowa 65.4%, Izumo 69.3%, Alsace 46.5%, Georgia 74.3%.

It’s good to have a review since they will drop a black ship in the shipyard every now and then. One take that I have on the paper ships. While I do agree that there lots of historical ships that WG could use for this game, I do enjoy seeing the “What if” aspect of these ships.
@stevenmoore46122 жыл бұрын
This ship seems like a monster! I haven’t unlocked the Regular FDG yet. Well it’s mainly because I hear a lot of complaints about the FDG. Basically everyone says that she’s just an XL Bismarck which is kind of true. I have played the Bismarck quite a lot and she is a great tier 8 battleship! I racked up quite a lot XP on her, so maybe I’ll try to go for the FDG and try her out once I get enough experience with the Bismarck. I haven’t really gone for any of the tier 9 ships in general, since one they just become so dang expensive to unlock, and two tier 9 battles are just so wonky, and three most of them never existed. My only tier 9 battleship and one of only two tier 9 ships I have is the Iowa, and the other being the fletcher. In terms of historical significance Iowa is the only real tier 9 battleship. So I guess if I was to go for another one it would probably be the Freddy. She “kind of” existed like the Russian tier 9 the Soyuz being only a partially built hull in reality but none the less was “kind of” a real battleship.

@stevenmoore46122 жыл бұрын
Well the Freddy or “H-39” does have some historical value. She was only a partially built hull. I think she something like 20% completed before she was ordered to be scrapped in 1942. In mid ‘42 was when most of the Kriegsmarine’s projects were canceled and scrapped. And from then on the Germans made due with what they already had, since Hitler couldn’t resist the urge the keep Blitzkrieging everything, which kept on taking more and more resources away from the ship building industry.

@FunandGameswithTerry2 жыл бұрын
It can largely depend on what server you're playing as well. I find Asia to be tougher than NA for German BBs, since the top tier meta is very big-gun heavy and defensive. NA tends to be more fluent / aggressive. If you're happy to accept some meh games in T10 for some excellent ones in T9, Freddie isn't a bad choice. I'd almost say I'd probably prefer the tech tree one tbh, since the sonar can be quite indispensable for pushes.
@HarkonWolf2 жыл бұрын
In Eu server is the same story but definitely the tech tree one is in my opinion a better choice due to the precise aiming and sonar.. however t9 is always a pain lol due the current mm but I noticed some balance in the amongst of t10 game I match maked in the lasts weeks.. however good review as always bud

The main line from the North Carolina to Montana focuses on speed and maneuverability. The alternative line from the Kansas to Vermont focuses on the stupendous amount of fire power you get with them. But other than that they are basically just glorified Colorados from tiers 8 to 10. They are the complete opposite of my play style.

@@wheels-n-tires1846 Yeah the Kansas, Minnesota, and Vermont are good ships for what they are, but they just do not match my play style at all. I’m a fast battleship, battlecruiser, and heavy cruiser kind of guy. Those ships suit my play style the most. Fast, maneuverable, and hard hitting! They can react quickly to fast changing battle situations, and make a difference with their heavy artillery, speed, and maneuverability. With the new US battleships they really can’t react quickly quickly changing battle situations, and that’s what I don’t like about them. They aren’t multi role ships.

To be honest, the missing sonar really hurts imo. Being able to get early spots on torpedoes is super important for pushes, and denying DDs to smoke up nearby. The RR & better secondaries are nice, but the precise aim can be equally useful for mid-long range shots. Plus, the tech tree Freddie actually gets you ahead on the path to the GK, which is one of my absolute favourite ships, so yeah. If I was given the choice, I'd probably play the tech tree version as well.
