I feel like the Arizona era for naval was better then what it is tdy. Considering that many naval players played naval at that time for realistic naval experience. Unlike today and the direction gaijin is taking. And is it just me or older ship armour system and torpedo defence system more realistic and better modelled then tdy for Yamato and Iowa. I literally have died from one torpedo in the Iowa and it was not due to magazine detonation, it was simply cause almost all my hull section was blacked out. And back then I battleship duels even against a destroyer is more to skills then what it is tdy.
only problem then was gaijin couldn’t model Scharnhorst properly to save there life
but now we have 2 of them USS IOWA scarnhorst 1.5 and sovetsky soyuz scarnhorst 2.0
I mean in reality scharnhost was an extremely hard ship to sink wouldn’t agree it was purely due to the ships real life design. But I have seen ppl still being able to sink scharnhost, and I was able to duel with 2 scharnhost and survive sinking one of them and the other one was bombed to death.
