Torpedo Dodging Medal

[Spuggy]

I really hope that the torpedo dodging reward medal is going to be called a TorpedoBeats medal

 

 

[Shirakami_Kon]

Also we need to be able to change the torpedo alarm effect to torpedo beats too. I heard there's a mod for that already out there, so it can't be that hard to implement.

This reward medal is going to happen? Or just your wish?

[anonym_EFwxJOPWzlER]

This is a joke, right ? medal for dodging torpedoes

If this is real, and surely it cannot be, how does the system know that you've dodged a torpedo, and that it's not just missed of it's own accord?  What happens if you eat a torpedo from a spread of 6, in which case 5 missed?  Do you get a medal?  What if a DD fires torps at a player from 12km away but that player shortly changes speed or course, for a completely different reason, and those torps miss by a dozen km - does the player get get a medal for dodging the torps?  What happens if I fire some torps at enemy ship A, he evades them (for whatever reason) and they then *just* miss ship B which is behind him but who took no evasive action to dodge them - does ship B get a medal?

 

I really dislike medals\achievements for things that can just happen of their own accord...

How about a medal for dodging shells then?

I heard they were drawing a small circle <500m radius around your ship and if a torp passes through it it's considered a "dodge". I imagine that if you get hit there will be a cool down on your dodging detection.

I need this mod in my life

How about a medal for dodging islands

I think there is a lot of people (including myself) never, or very rarely at least getting this one tbh

[anonym_hqO9wrVAEQYQ]

I thought the islands actually moved while the battle was going.

 

[Verdius]

A medal for not sailing in straight lines? Medals for breathing through your nose instead of your mouth next? /jk

Can you imagine the amount of medals you'd get for dodging a full Shima salvo? But more seriously is not getting hit by torpedos not supposed to be a reward itself?

[EsaTuunanen]

Would that be per some amount of avoided shells or damage?

Week or two ago had 1,92M hp potential damage worth of ordnance shot at my destroyer.

 

 

[aboomination]

I can dodge shells or torps but those islands always get me...

[BloodRose13]

Getting a medal for dodging torpedo's is like getting a medal for breathing. Pointless gratification for no particular reason - even BB's can dodge torpedo's with relative ease these days.

[Shirakami_Kon]

They want a way to collect data that they nerf torps properly so they became literally useless, if everyone manages to get this medal means they did a good work. Then the world would be at peace and everyone would be happy again.

They should make an Ice map where you have icebergs flaoting around on random paths across the island you would need to dodge

My record is 3,3 mln. Yeah it would be nice to get some signals for huge tanking.

Yes, the amount of salvo's I have dodged or glanced are stupid. Never calculated the damage though, how do you do that? But anyway, if we are rewarding players for brainlessly avoiding torpedo's (you can do it in your sleep) then surely we can reward players for avoiding high velocity artillery salvo's.

Check your stats in PROFILE tab - go to details.

And they are shown after every battle (third screen)

You wasted this. You should have posted it the day after Marc

[Khul]

In case you're clueless or just lack a sense of humour, the OP refers to this dude:

 

Since watching his--normally hilarious as well as informative--videos, I myself hear the bloody stuff going off whenever I dodge a torpedo.

4.8 mil in, you guessed it, Izumo!

That "place your bow front and watch everything they have flying towards you" sure is fun way to play this game

Weird, just had 14 torpedo hit match with those one minute travel time torps of Gremlin...

Out of 42 torps launched.

Meaning every third torpedo hit!

"Winners" of metal fish lottery were König (2), Gneisenau (5), Scharnhorst (3), Dunkerque (2), Kiev (1) and Nürnberg. (1)

Actually haven't seen Potential damage there since some time last week.
