Submarines - WT Discussion

Lol charge everyone
The True Grunts : r/Gundam
It would be even funnier if they went lol you get carriers. All things we have not gotten an April fools around carrier warfare so even more unlikely. But with the the anti-sub boats we have been drip fed its more possible then you may think.

It’s all new damage mechanics in the content disclosures which look pretty cool on the surface, especially the “heavy damage”. As for submarines, these could be the “couple of nice additions for naval”. Alternatively these are new destroyers made with ASW in mind, in preparation for the first update of the new year.

Guess we’re waiting for that Q&A video.

Unfinished naval mechanics are definitely sonar/hydrophone and “each nation with naval getting something” is definitely submarines confirmed. We will be eating so much spaghetti this christmas and playing submarines omg cant wait.

It seems we’ll have to wait a bit longer for our boats. seems they’re “struggling” to give them a proper place in matches.

We’re continuing to work on submarines, but implementing such a complicated and controversial type of vehicle takes a lot of time. The biggest challenge is figuring out how to properly integrate submarines —which were never designed for large-scale fleet battles — into the very same fleet battles that basically make up the standard naval experience in War Thunder. And to do it in such a way that we somehow don’t break the game for everybody else. We’re very grateful to the community and to all submarine enthusiasts for their patience, and we’ll do our best to make sure that the final result meets your expectations.

I guess we’re on the “it’s so over” part of the line graph. (ran out of hopium)

One thing that keeps me a bit hopeful is that at some point he mentions a naval mechanic that is in development and “probably already in game by the time you watch this video” (around 3:50)

So that probably means that video was shot quite a little while ago, maybe before the current update

When are they going to fix the game for everybody else though?

Yeah it seems it was made like a month ago.

We’ll probably know pretty soon whether submarines are coming in 2.53. But it’s nice to know they are still working on them

Next December >:)

Please don’t. Please don’t. Naval already sucks to play. Please don’t make it any worse.

Honestly though, how do they expect to actually give them a proper place when they dont do any events or anything to test them more. theres only so much you can do with them just sitting in internal theory crafting and testing…

Naval doesn’t suffer from torpedoes though

If you know a thing or 2 about WWII and early cold war submarines, their torps, and the respective speed of both, you’d know it probably won’t be busted

You are both assuming WAY too much good will out of a dev like Gaijin. They will absolutely turn them into the most OP things to sail the seven things if given the chance.

heh

I guess we’ll see

It’s a matter of “when” anyway now, not a matter of “if”
