No. After submarines I don't want to see any more crap added to the game with some BS to make them work, thank you.

It's just a Fast Attack Craft with with foward shooting torps, one cannon, and some flak. Sounds like it could be great and it was real.

We had these years ago already. They were in Operation Dynamo. Their speed was like Kleber on Speed Boost. Was a bit tricky to hit them with my Sims's 127 mm ballistic mortars :Smile_veryhappy:

You realize you're basically suggesting the idea of WG developing ANYTHING at all that's not already in the game. Are you even sure you dare to see what would happen after what they are doing with CVs? I certainly don't.

Well they've already reached the epitome of design failure with subs so how much worse could it get?

Just think how many times we've already had this "they can't do anything worse than this".

 

Nothing can be worse than stealthfire.

Nothing can be worse than CVs.

Nothing can be worse than the CV rework making AA a mere visual effect.

Nothing can be worse than Yamato guns, they sweared not to make bigger guns.

Nothing can be worse than Smolensk.

Nothing can be worse than tier X... right? Right?

Ok, it could, now we have super CVs...

 

Are you really sure you want to claim that nothing can be worse than subs?

Do you think we would ever get one of these in WoWs and would you want one?

I don't think so. Motor torpedo boats, subchasers, minelayers, gunboats and corvettes are all slow vessels with very little firepower. In the case MTBs in particular, WoWS doesn't take guns smaller than 76mm into account. It will just be another submarine class with its only redeeming qualities being relatively fast (sometimes) with good concealment at the expense of everything else.

 

As far as small combat vessels are concerned the most Wargaming can consider are destroyer escorts and frigates. Some can be added as mid tier premiums and even as a sub mini DD tree in the case of Italy; Spica, Pegaso, Ciclone and Ariete classes.

I just miss seeing them in Operation Dynamo. 
 

If this game was more of a simulator it might be a possible, but given how WG have designed the game I can’t see it happening.

It could be fun in some separate mode.  

On random not so much.

How would you balance such small boats? Would you add them great concealment, speed and french saturation mechanic so they could stand at least few shots? And what about matchmaking? Don't we have enough small ships with torpedoes in battles already?

People would have problems to even hit them. that is why the ships are 2x bigger then they should be. That is why the scenery is so small.

 

But i miss that operation it was fun.

I would just make them bigger, give them two 8 km torps every 30 seconds, a speed boost, and give them just two guns. Max speed 50 knots but a very good turning circle because the boat itself is your torp launcher so in order to aim you need to move the boat quickly.

Game already is in a terrible state as is with the numerous new ships that were rushed into the game. And the never ending sub testing which just proves they want those in the game as soon as possible.

Shoving another class thats just there to screw you over as a cruiser isn't on alot of people's wishlist.

Subs fun for those that like them for people that dont NO, I dont feel like I should be able to delete or be deleted by a class that still doesn't have any HARDCOUNTER.

Cvs can't devstrike you quickly unless RNG wants you dead very badly, BUT SUBS CAN IN LESS THAN 2 MINUTES AND YOU CANT DO A THING AGAINST IT IF ITS NOT DETECTED.

I see it only working in a squadron concept. Like in a group of three for the lower tiers. A group of five for the mid tiers. And a group of seven for the high tiers.

 

I see possibilities.

Why is that? You think there's something worse than CV's? If you're thinking of saying super CV's, I'll give you that one but other than that they're still the worst thing for the game. Planehater first, subhater second. :cap_horn:

Of course, as this game is solely based on content addition in order to stay afloat, we will eventually have everything here, including elves, dragons and dwarfs.

 

In relation to this, motor boats will be here quite soon, with top tiers probably being guided missiles boats.

 

And no, not joking here (bar the elves part) - I am dead serious.
