I truly hope that subs will never hit random battles, Or ranked, OR litteraly anything outside of a couple of events. They just break the flow of the game, open water is now a no go zone for DD's, since a submurged sub can spot them from so far away without having to risk anything, and we all know the life span of DD when spotted, i cannot imagine this kind of gameplay in higher tiers. So you either push under hell fire of the entire team, try to find and destroy the sub spotting you. Or you bail off and go away. Most cruisers And All BB's can only watch while a sub is spotted, but too low in the water to do anything to it , such a great design to have a class that cannot be engaged even when it's looking straight in your eyes in front of you, spotted. it feels just like adding a new frustrating mechanics to the game, The good'ol they can hit you but you can't do anything, but bumped to a 100 because it's not like a cv where, when you find it you can hit it, it's like you hunt the sub, you spot the sub, and you just stare at it... not being able to shoot it because it's underwater, while on the mean time, you will get showered in shells, delightfull. And the experience we are having in testing is absolutly flawed too, nobody plays it like a random battles because everybody wants to see/shoot the submarines so they push middle, the bots are terrible at targeting important ships, which is why as soon as a full human match is made, DD's get blasted instantly when spotted. If they ever release subs in random battles, it will be a completly different outcome that what we see in testing.

Dope, more wierd skin-ships to shoot at ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) also the mission start in the 11th of june ? ... thats quiet some time before this event goes into effect then thats some very early announcement lol

About french ships i've been grinding it for a little time. i have the tier VII " algerie ". it's actually kinda good. the armor is weak, and you will often catch fire if another french ship fire at you. but on the other end mobidlity is super nice, you can easly evade long rang stoopid BB's, and the guns are actually quiet good. the fly time is a bit long i think, but it can easly deal a lot of dmg per hit, and i often put on fire my targets. like REALLY often. and it's been like this since tier IV-V. getting a lot of fire ribbons at the end of a match in a french cruiser is common for me now. and after some time, i manage to put the first salvo in most of the time. But i guess they are one of the hardest nation to play. they are really punishing when you do a misstake. broadsiding, citadeled, over-extending and such. but at the same time it is really rewarding if you stay alive and hit enemies a lot !. i wouldn't advice going for it if you are a new player, but if you already got some knowledge about the game. yeah go for it ~ it's gonna be either a fun experience or will make you cry for life ~ !

indeed that could be a pretty neat thing to do ingame +1
