Return fire? You must be kidding... 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[STRMO] ReverendFlashback Players 123 posts 4,005 battles Report post #58 Posted February 14 Doesn't really matter if you call it outplayed or messed up, I sink subs all the time. Most embarrassing kill was most likely yesterday, when I had the staggering ammount of 90hp left in Cossack and still managed to 100 to 0 a sub while my team was already decimated and the game lost. Subs ain't much trouble unless you're alone AND playing a bb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Subs ain't much trouble unless you're alone AND playing a bb. Whilst I agree, for the correct DD (like pretty much any UK DD, I have and love most of them) subs are easy meat.. for things like Battleships they are desperately unfair.. the BB positions correctly etc, then gets hammered because a sub slips past your less stellar team mates and has a field day on the back row with little to no chance of being countered due to the skill-less homing torps limited damage control and nerfed to death anti-sub countermeasures, unless you have a competent DD player come to your rescue. That's not a good recipe for Randoms. DDs have to work hard to slip past the enemy DDs and cruisers.. subs do it by default. It's one of the reasons I've gone sub hunting in my cossack, it keeps my capital ships alive so can save/win games. One thing I'd like to see is, if a sub pings you, it should speed up the damage con cool down, each ping, knocking 10seconds off the cooldown. i.e. be sparing with the pings.. a sort of adrenaline rush effect. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Show of hands please ! Topic is locked. Even though I can understand the frustration sometimes, try in a better language next time. And in one of the general submarine topics. I suggest the sticky one. 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
