Okhotnik (which is Famous + Historical) doesn't get depth charges either, but WG assure us that omitting any ASW capability isn't a nerf of a premium, so that's okay...

Since both existed and historically did not feature ASW armament they won't receive it. not a very valid argumentation, is it? Historically many ships we have in the game didnt even exist. some didnt even have complete blueprints. So, at some point they should get their ASW. Dont forget, WG promised back than that there are going to be no subs in wows. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[R7S] lovelacebeer Players 4,158 posts 25,223 battles Report post #14 Posted June 16, 2022 Whilst the reason WG gives is insufferably foolish and at least in my opinion insulting, it is important not to shoot the messenger especially when they are not a WG employee. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suppose there is a reason no one in charge ever checks the forums. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[A-MD] SkipperCH Moderator, Players, WoWs Wiki Team, Freibeuter 6,894 posts 18,437 battles Report post #22 Posted June 16, 2022 This for one instance isn't true. Just because there aren't thousands of replies from WG staff this doesn't mean they aren't reading the forums. One thing holding them back is the fact that they simply can't talk about what they want. Around 90% of intel WG staff holds is under NDA and can't be shared. And to put further insult to injury - Every post a WG staff member makes is treated as fact and promise. Just because "The Chieftain" said in an interview 7 years ago that there won't be subs in the game since they don't fit many people took this as a promise by WG even though it was never published as such. Same with Yamato's 460mm guns always being the biggest in the game. This is one of the reasons I can understand staff deliberately choosing not to comment on certain topics in order to prevent misinterpretation of arguments or the above mentioned. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like subs that can shoot virtually unlimited torps every 30 seconds. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
