[TOXIC] ThePurpleSmurf Players 2,554 posts Report post #1 Posted February 11, 2021 Just spotted a supertester in my last game, testing an IJN cruiser … … and then he sent his little friends across the map to harass the enemy DD in B cap … Look at the minimap, where the ship is and where his bombers are. Yeah, the DD in B didn't survied for very long. Just what the game needs in its current state, amirite?! 4 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[-SBG-] ColonelPete Players 38,559 posts 19,178 battles Report post #3 Posted February 11, 2021 That is either at least the third test phase or second testing phase runs a bit longer... And unfortunately, that is not just a consumable, but player controlled. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[BAD-A] Matty814 Players 144 posts 12,244 battles Report post #5 Posted February 11, 2021 I really hope they change the spotting mechanics for these (i.e they don't spot for rest of team) but I'm not going to hold my breath. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[FBC] Logan_MountStuart Players 416 posts 10,715 battles Report post #9 Posted February 11, 2021 Seems like the ship is uncontrolled when the squadron is up, so if spotted and in range, death occurs quite quickly, but I'm sure they'll add a little to the general toxicity of anything that flies.

Well, after the cv rework, other crap and commander skill rework my motivation is pretty low and i don't play very much, hence this was the first time i saw one in the wild. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Competent players on the other hand... (I think I saw a test Tone in battle a week or two ago; I recall that I knew the player, so their doing well in her wasn't that surprising.)

[YEET] COPlUM Players 3,009 posts 12,083 battles Report post #19 Posted February 11, 2021 So a DD player can basically face up to six carriers in a game, is this how these boats work? You are basically a CV early game, 6v1 the DDs with planes? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are basically a CV early game, 6v1 the DDs with planes? This still need to be considered and determined, how Tones and Ises will be considered for MM as both being Hybrid ships. They are still being tested and no final date of their release for public was announced. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[R7S] lovelacebeer Players 4,158 posts 25,226 battles Report post #21 Posted February 11, 2021 Who knows with WG, it depends how testing goes to what happens with these ships they could disappear into the mists of time like HMS Habakkuk and Kitakami have done. However considering the nothing but pessimistic comments (putting it mildly) appearing here on the forum every time these ships appear in testing I think they are very likely to be released. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
