Oh no I really wished she would have come in a historical painting scheme instead of the fake premium camo

Yes, I wanted to too. But maybe we should write a proposal to the developers about this? Maybe they will do something

Pretty cheap too nice. Ill have to pick it up just to have it i love IJN Yukikaze

It will be great if they can offer an option to disable the premium camo. The camo should be a bonus to the customer to be used as they wish, not something to be forced to use.

Should we start making suggestions for submarines so gaijin knows what to add?

So is this an actual issue that needs to be bug reported?

I don’t think so as Yamato’s turning ability in dev server is already one of worst among with Soyuz.

i made a petition for naval to be easier to grind

Ingame as of 2.46.0.21, Yamato maintains 19 knots flank speed in a constant full rudder turn, and takes almost 7 minutes to complete a full 360* turn (constant turn rate I measured was ~54*/minute, 3 minutes and 21 seconds to complete a 180* course change at constant speed).

Rearranging the formula Rate of Turn = 57.3 x Velocity (in knots) / 60 x Radius (in nautical miles) to find the ingame radius and plugging in the numbers from above and then converting to metric, Yamato has a constant radius of around 620m, or a diameter of 1.2km.
Battleships Yamato and Musashi by Janusz Skulski quotes Yamato’s tactical diameter to be 640m and the advance diameter (diameter of the circle when changing course by 90*) is 589m.

It’s possible I got a template answer, but I got a response from DMM saying “We will discuss with Gaijin.”
If DMM throws primary documents at Gaijin and they don’t fix ammunition storage, armor, etc., there’s nothing more we can do.

Could you please add this source to the bug report?

Testimony of a Survivor:
On the day we set out for Okinawa, aboard Yamato’s first bridge, the executive officer reported to the captain, “Including personnel from the Second Fleet Headquarters, the total number of crew members is 3,332.”
— Navigator, Sub-Lieutenant Yamamori

Thank you. I used the image because it was the same as the source I used. However, my manager told me that he needs at least one more secondary source, so I might need to prepare another piece of evidence. If anyone knows, please let me know!

…? There’s nothing I can do about it now, and I hope this armor doesn’t actually become a problem.
