Did you see the big mess that random battles are right now? Most of the people don't know the most basic mechanichs of the game….and you want to introduce subs? You must be joking. Many people will leave the game if you put them on the main server.

 

I looked at that litany of instructions on the in-game news and laughed. 

 

Well, subs are the death knell for this game, as far as I'm concerned.

Balao (maybe premium) i think is totally new what they added soo yes can't wait for test

[Kasseopea]

I'm also very enthusiastic. Pretty sure people whined about literally every new type of ship or line of ship. They don't want to readjust and to learn new mechanics. Meanwhile I always had the most fun in outplaying the opponent, rather than outstatting or outnumbering them. That's why CV was always most fun and while even russian BBs feel unfair. You down one guy, the rest of the enemy team starts pummeling you, you go down. Yay.

The argument on gun type v hull type is simply open to speculation as many nations classify their ships based on role while others use gun calibre or displacement to classify their ships. These nation specific classifications would also change based on current political stance, national interpretation of current treaties or even whether they signed up for certain treaties in the first place. So to argue and try to shoehorn ships into classes based on 1 or 2 criteria is open to speculation but never going to be as black and white as "it's a Light or heavy cruiser". For example Monitor's are they battleships or sea going shore bombardment platforms the role they were used for, because they were certainly not very capable of open water fighting, or dd leaders, are they dd's, light cruisers or something inbetween or role specific. On this topic as in life there are too many variables to simply place every ship in one definitive list.

 

And then there is the FACT that WG do what the hell WG wants to do....I wouldn't be surprised if WG brought out a russian ship with 30 inch mains, 280mm secondaries and 203mm AA guns, called it a ddcruisingbattleship based on some mythical blueprint they found on the back of a russian fag packet and sold it for more than the Pueto Rico. First WG couldn't lie straight in bed and second they have very general rules about classification based simply on "BALANCE" and what they want to sell at the time. In the end it's a game and not worth getting your knickers in a twist. Take whatever class WG want to stick a ship in with a pinch of salt, they will do what the hell they want in the end.

nop, still don't want subs.

 

How could we stop that ? of course we cannot because WG never listens, F*** you

Hi AdmiralNicholas, 

 

The PT server is not open yet, if everything goes as planned you should be ready to access the Public Test Session around today evening, we will notify you on the Portal as soon as everything is ready.

In the meanwhile you can create a Public Test account here is explained how:  https://worldofwarships.eu/en/content/pt-guide/

From what i saw on YouTube, sub counter play each other/subs hunt each other, looks good and fun as hell, can't wait for that too 

[Lexmechanic]

I've been watching CC content on subs and I'm still not touching them. I don't believe for a moment there's even a chance of them NOT coming to main game modes, sadly. I hope there's still enough WoWs left to enjoy until then.

[defender128]

When you put subs in random games my interest for the game goes down about 90 %.

 

I am playing regularly but this year I didn't renew my premium account, because I knew they will add subs and I don't support that. So it will run out right around when subs will be added. Which is very convenient because I'll just quit.

 

It was ok until it lasted, but this is the end.

 

I will say one last time - adding subs to the game is a very poor decision, it is not healthy for the game and probably game-breaking. Unfortunately paying playerbase opinion means jack crap to WG and will do as they please.

 

Maybe I will tune in after some time just to see what an abomination the game will become (like WOT).

What's wrong with subs?

[Cleghorn____]

 

Please do not add as part of normal battles. I would probably leave game if WOW did that.

I have a real urge to record the names of all the "ama quit!" users, then check on them after Submarines hit the live server. I bet most of them will still be playing, and more than a few will have increasing numbers of Submarine battles played.

Where do I start.

1. Try playing a BB against subs.

2. Unrealistic sub speeds.

3. Stupid sonar pings and dumb homing torpedoes.

4. No hedgehogs on DD's or Cruisers.

5. Inability of Wargaming to balance sub game-play, just as per the garbage CV rework.

Make sure you remember my name, Smegger213.

 

YOU WILL NOT FIND ME PLAYING AFTER SUBS ENTER RANDOMS

[nettlem]

There are so many people here against subs and cv. But i CV and subs were in historical naval battles so i cant see reason why to not add them.

I can see that hunting a sub with DD could be interesting, but i my opinion method what is used now could be changed.

 

So my question is: why are u so afraid of subs? Are u afraid that after u camp behind island all game u will get the torped? Or why are you so against it? I can guess that only for CV and BB is  sub a real thread. Also interaction between CV and subs could be interesting. And after all i cant see that CVs are OP in current games, its sometimes really quite hard to not get all planes shot down when attacking high tear ships.

1. Where is that a problem? When the bb pays attention, the bb will out run them. Subs are generally around the speed of the BB, submerged way slower.

2. They have to increase the speed. nobody would play a 12 knot submarine at max speed. Though submerged they are already pretty slow. But we are not playing a simulation like Silent Hunter, and even there you have a time acceleration. It's a pvp-arcade shooter game, so the Developer will change the design from the realistic to comfortable.

3. Myself would prefer "normal" torps, but the acustic torpedos existed. And it's still an unrealistic arcade game with mostly historically ships.

4. They were planned, when they talked the last time about

5. No idea, why that is important, balance can change every month, that's nothing, that will be ever "final". Reading the PTS changes, I would assume, that subs rely on the stupidity and ignorace of players. They are generally slow, and even slower submerged. So a good player will know how to escape from a slow ship/boat But more later when the PTS is online.
