I mean, it isn’t very fun in Naval EC to be tootling on down and then a 1967 Guided Missile Destroyer domes you from 15km away and there’s nothing you can do

I think Gaijin uses generic texture map tiles for undersea terrain just like they do on land. They just reoccur with some stuff like rocks placed by the map generating program.
Once you get below the midwater line where there is little light, the bottom is all mud and rocks anyway.
While its “fun” to see the sub from 3rd person while submerged. Its not very realistic, since sub crews are trapped inside the sub… oh wait. NM.
WT isn’t a sim. As you were.
That’s what I mean.No thanks
:)
Literally destroyed my desire to go on EC singlehandedly.

It just reminds me of the Final Countdown movie where the USS Nimitz went back in time from 1980 to fight the Japanese in 1944 .F14s vs Zeros.
Why in a game of such detail do we have this bizarre era business going on?
"Ooooh but it’s balanced " says a 14 year old kid.
It’s about as balanced as my diet.
I hope we can play with submarines, especially with Germans, Italians and Japanese
I have been waiting for submarines and aircraft carriers… Should I give up and just play world of war ships instead? War thunder has not made a good naval game mode yet. I have had to build my own custom CDK maps for naval to have fun.
In your opinion*
Cool story man but what you do or wont do is up to you. We already have discussion about subs but this brings nothing to it really
I really dont get why players want submarines in naval. The only thing they’ll accomplish is introduce a gameplay element thats annoying to everyone.
1940 submarines are incredibly slow, which means the only way to make them have staying power is smaller maps and a closer spawn to objectives. I dont need to point out how thats annoying for everyone involved.
Players want them but naval certainly doesnt need them.

In respect to all sailors below the waters and history itself with the glorious German Wolfpacks for example, I think we should get Submarine Battles.
Agreed!
Typically Gaijin will make them ratty as hell. Cant wait to get spawncamped by a bunch of submarines.
If they were to introduce subs, the gameplay mechanics need a serious overhaul from the start!

I mean… that’s literally the whole point of submarines? to fire at unsuspecting and sometimes stationary targets and be gone when torps hit? If you dont like spawncamping you might want to read what happened to hms roayal oak and almost hms nelson, among many other ships.
You really gonna blame gaijin for accurate depiction of sub gameplay that they havent yet implemented? lmao

Well, if you actually believe it will be much fun being on the receiving end of that, play a few rb ground battles at higher tiers to get the same feeling…2 sec after moving out- getting bombed/atgm’ed, sniped etc

please read what I said and show me in which part I want subs in game lol. Im pointing out that you blame gaijin for historical rattiness of subs which is pretty funny:)
So you took that part completely out of context lol…
Totally ignored the rest that clearly relates to current gameplay in WT…

I’m not hearing any good arguments for submarines to be added besides “I want them!” If you’re so desperate to live out your U-boat fantasies there are plenty of other games to do so.
Subs will simply not work in navals current gameplay loop, they’re slow and move even slower underwater (6-8 knots) requiring even smaller maps for them to be relevant. Meaning if the submarines want any kills they’ll either have to camp objectives, or try to spawn camp the enemy.
And dont mention EC, a vehicle that only works in a event that Gaijin holds every weekend is still pretty terrible.
Besides, even if theyre added submarines will merely be a gimmick that players will play for 5 or so matches before leaving the game mode entirely. All the while having ruined Naval for everyone else.

Submarines could counter battleships, also only players who don’t know how to use submarines would ruin it
Sure, have fun traveling for 20 or 30 minutes trying to get them submerged at 8 knots. I’m sure people will love the riveting gameplay of spending half their time swimming to the enemy spawn in the hopes of maybe hitting a single ship.
Its a dumb argument and everyone knows it.
