French Coastal discussion - what's new, what can be added

Topic to discuss anything regarding the announced french coastals and their future development

I haven’t looked in detail at what’s here yet, but man, so many gorgeous shots in the trailer! It was wonderful to see these get that love. :D

Edit: I made a reddit post with more shots from the trailer.

they are pretty nice, however Im still waiting for something other than mtbs lol

subchasers, frigates, gunboats, corvettes etc…

Guess I will have to wait another day :)

I am also wondering what are those boats on the right side, they look all very similar but I cant see any guns on them?

oh btw @Hyrikul what are your takes on the trailer?

Keep in mind the larger and Cold War type stuff wouldn’t really fit the setting of the trailer.

I mean they could fit any ship for a short cameo near the end, just like last update we saw a russian hydrofoil, but I’m not really bothered by the fact they didn’t, I’m just waiting to see them on dev stream:)

I wonder if they’ll be in the tree once it gets released?

…Hopefully they will.

The boats on the right side look like P400 class.

  • But yea, Dev stream/Dev Server/datamine will reveal all in short order soon enough.

I just want one good meta coastal ship… and E50/E52 class :)

Because it is originally British ship. 25-pounder army gun on landing craft to support landing operation.

I assume this is all the new ships for this dev server build?

Sad Amagi isn’t here, but thrilled to see Mogador! She also gives us another KanColle character in WT, having been added to KC only a month ago. :)

“la surprise”? Surprise in deed!

So there’s much more than what was presented in the Dev Stream. Nice, hope it makes it to the release.

Though sadly none of those is remotely comparable to… well… any random Soviet Rank V coastal vessel. And this is not for the lack of vessels built, as French, and BeNeLux, had plenty of competetive ships to choose from.


it is :)

true, no high tier frigates nor corvettes. None of ships is 4.3-4.7 worthy tho, so there is still chance of something being tested
