that is all nice and dandy but those angagements in the battle of guadalcanal were night fights where cvs couln't operate i'd love to see night fight in here but untill then nothing like that is going to happen and leyte gulf was a bb engagement purely for the fact that japan literally ran out of pilots and used the carrier fleet as a decoy ... the daylight engagements around guadalcana were mostly between the entereprise's force and the japanese 5th carrier division

 

Well the ocean map is during dusk (think the sun was very low in the west) so it's likely an engagement like the battle of Jutland (which had the advantage of no torpedo bombers).

my point stands i'm not saying is not a fun map, it is and it works but is nowhere close to the "real" naval action the guy claimed it was going to be there will never be an engagement in this game that will be like real naval action which is not necessarly a bad thing. fun > realism

Realism would include bad weather, engagements over hours, 1 out of 50 shells hitting a target, flooding slowing down ships, etc. etc. etc.

 

Although I do like the open ocean map. Also engagements were rarely in shallow waters around islands the way the maps are currently. Most scenarios close to land would involve one side being the coast line (with maybe some rocks etc around that) and open waters towards the rest... haven't heard of many battles fought between BBs inside a fjord or something.

that's what i'm saying... it is a good thing that the game is not shooting for realism because as cool as it could sound i'm pretty sure most of the wows players would not have fun playing a fully realistic naval game.

I played Ocean a couple of times.  The first time we just had chat of people complaining how lazy the map makers were nowadays (yawn) and I tried to get everyone to work together but only about half listened.  This half did not include either of our carriers who proceeded to run the other way into the jaws of the enemy.  As for me in my Nagato, another BB, the 3 Cruisers in front of us and a DD we put up a decent fight using something that looked a lot like teamwork... but the losses on the other flank were quick and without corresponding enemy deaths so it left us massively outnumbered.

 

Still, I think I will continue to at least suggest some coordinated approach to this map... it might help :ohmy:

There is none atm, just record with OBS ;)

 

I play with friends and they talk A LOT, so I lose a lot of very good footage(for tutorials) to them talking, but I honestly can't ask them to shut up xD

Yes I imagine that Mate. Hope you manage to do more videos of WoWs, loved the ones you did/ do about WoT.
