Unrotated projectile launchers are quite minor weapons, but I guess they could be used as a consumable for a short burst in DPS or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vanhal Alpha Tester 5,609 posts 5,569 battles Report post #3 Posted January 16, 2017 I'm shocked anyone at all voted on mines. While missiles and rockets would be either just gimmick or unnecessary (while i don't think particularly gamebreaking), you only need minute of thinking to get that mines would completely gut the game. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ghostychan Beta Tester 909 posts 14,641 battles Report post #6 Posted January 16, 2017 We definitively need mines! I'm tired of all these BBs pushing into the caps - and with the help of the mines, they will finally stay away from the caps! ... wait a second... 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vanhal Alpha Tester 5,609 posts 5,569 battles Report post #7 Posted January 16, 2017 Mine laying DD, where you give up torpedo's but get to lay strings of mines could be an interesting addition to the game would certainly bring a new dimension to tactics and team play At worst, it would deduct the dimension and turn the game to either total still or to total reliance on minelayers/sweepers. Also, playing minelayers/sweepers would be the least fun i can imagine. At best, it would dilute the teams by adding unnecessary crap. No, just as i say since alpha, mines would be absolutely worst addition for the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[BAZI] allufewig Beta Tester 2,912 posts 15,294 battles Report post #8 Posted January 16, 2017 The amount of yes-votes for mines is absolutely disturbing. An almost undetectable, unremovable (unless minesweepers), high-damage source that is essentially random and hampers movement and tactical positioning. Truly, that is just what the game needs. The meta is already too fast-paced and aggressive. The idea is almost as good as an always-on wallhack as a skill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[2DQT] RUSSIANBlAS Players 8,241 posts Report post #10 Posted January 16, 2017 I could live with rockets but even they would be a bit silly as it would be essentially a massive burst damage like torps but more reliant on the user as it would be impossible to dodge. Mines would legitimise camping, you'll get all the losers logging onto here saying "TOLD YOU 16KM SNIPING WAS HOW TO PLAY!" And guided missiles, just no. Unless WG want to give the Missouri her cruise missiles also to prove they're not Russian bias 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[ODIUM] Synth_FG Players 551 posts 15,191 battles Report post #11 Posted January 16, 2017 Where should I place my mines? Probably somewhere where the enemy are likely to pass through. I know! Mine the caps! Depends how you implement them, Minelayer has to be travelling at less than 10kts, to lay and mines are laid in strings of 10 one every 5-10s so the gaps between them are large Mines are detectable by hydro Mines do approx 2x damage of torps Laying a minefield that covers an entire cap will be impossible within the time frame of the game, encircling a cap with mines means a very thin barrier that most ships will pass through without noticing, But multiple strings between 2 islands or at the end of a straight will cause the enemy team issues 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Could make for a lot of interesting gameplay scenarios imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just wanted to have a poll to get the numbers from EU forum Yes all these yes votes on mines, truly distrubing.
