Broken torpedos on coastal to bluewater


This was registered as death

Some actual explanation would be useful - you got a torpedo hit, UI shows damage, screen shows an explosion - what are the 2 top pictures supposed to be showing us??

What is the actual issue??

According to the Hit analysis i am supposed to have taken no damage however in the video i was nuked with one torpedo in the thickest area of the ship

Is the hit analysis RB or AB?

I haven’t noticed that function for ships, so no idea what it purports to show.

i believe that in RB torp run depth can be set, so it might hit above or below the armoured belt. I don’t know what depth AB torps are presumed to run at.

In any case, there is really no belt thickness that could prevent torpedo damage so I think the hit analysis is more likely broken than the game.

This AB and it really doesnt explain the fact that a 2.3 Torpedo boat renders my torpedo protection completely null and kills me instantly

You were already red-damaged in several hull sections so your torp protection was likely nil.

that might be the bug

Its not a bug its intended the Hit Analysis sometimes freaks out and shows damage/non damage in weird ways. You got hit by a Rank 5 Coastal Torpedo that has 910kg of tnt so obviously ure gonna get blown to pieces.

Yamato’s Torpedo Protection/Defense System in real life was notoriously bad - Despite it being ‘rated’ for 400kg in real life, the rivet construction and overall design meant the structural beams of the TDS would be bent inward on impact and impale the hull, resulting in serious flooding, or worse.

Torpedoes are a threat to any battleship, deployed by coastal or not. The fact you were nuked by 910kg of explosive force is simply the extreme end.

i bet if it was soyuz would have ate that no problem

The only thing I can say about that is the Pugliese torpedo defense system, taken from the italians, is untested in combat so I can’t say. As far as I know at any rate.

So no, probably not.
