Vanhal Alpha Tester 5,609 posts 5,569 battles Report post #6 Posted January 11, 2017 (edited) Did i heard "new types of armament"? Oh god, that don't leave much of a choice... missiles and mines (pls no mines, everything but mines)? Or maybe purpose builds rams... EDIT: Missiles are actually probable, one of the ships being modelled in the clip was a Kildin class DD: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kildin-class_destroyer Edited January 11, 2017 by Vanhal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Azalgor Beta Tester 1,046 posts 20,402 battles Report post #7 Posted January 11, 2017 (edited) An improvement i would like is a coresponding destruction of the ship depending on the damage it took at the last moment and make several of each and make them random. As of what it is now, its 1 death on all ocasions. And a fancy Yamato style detonation animation might be interesting too. As for the new weapons they might put in, i remember them talking about Nukes long ago, so might be something of the sort. just hope our ships dont have to become minesweapers.

EDIT: Missiles are actually probable, one of the ships being modelled in the clip was a Kildin class DD: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kildin-class_destroyer Actually Project 56 was Kotlin class (as it turned out, last non-missile class of the Soviet destroyers), Kildin class was Project 56M (with lead ship being Project 56EM). Kotlins were armed with 2xII 130mm guns and 2xV 533mm torpedo tubes (and 4xIV 45mm automatic guns) and the main connection to Pr. 56M was the hull and powerplant. Cant wait for the new British lines and Finally some more French Ships Dunkerque called the devs and told them she feels lonely. So yeah, looking forward to FR ships - they often had weird and original solutions An improvement i would like is a coresponding destruction of the ship depending on the damage it took at the last moment and make several of each and make them random. As of what it is now, its 1 death on all ocasions. And a fancy Yamato style detonation animation might be interesting too. As for the new weapons they might put in, i remember them talking about Nukes long ago, so might be something of the sort. just hope our ships dont have to become minesweapers. Well that kinda already is in the game - for example bow breaking off if you are sunk by torpedo hit in the general area seems to happen quite often, though maybe I am imagining things...

Oh wait, upon re-watching the 3D model under progress shown in the video most definitely looks like Project 56EM or M, so I stand corrected Let's see how that one plays out 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vanhal Alpha Tester 5,609 posts 5,569 battles Report post #18 Posted January 11, 2017 (edited) Actually Project 56 was Kotlin class (as it turned out, last non-missile class of the Soviet destroyers), Kildin class was Project 56M (with lead ship being Project 56EM). Kotlins were armed with 2xII 130mm guns and 2xV 533mm torpedo tubes (and 4xIV 45mm automatic guns) and the main connection to Pr. 56M was the hull and powerplant. That is right, but the model shown in the video (twice), namely that one: Is armed with quadruple guns, instead of double 130mm. Also, the smokestack, mast and the superstructure are clearly different. For further comparison, this is Kildin class DD: And this is Kotlin: So while you may, or may not introduce missiles, you do have missle armed ship in your 2017 video. EDIT: I read your second posts. Yeah, let's see, i'm actually curious. Just please tell them, no mines, we already have problems with pushing, we don't need minelayers/sweepers.
