Its so over
Weird, feels like this update’s name is a cue for submarine, but at least there’s a new visual effect for depth chargers.

yeah
no subs but torp markers on minimap + new visual for depth charges + a lot of destroyers
Getting closer and closer, but they just never come X)

I’m not saying it’s 100% but that looks like depth charging, the other ship has dropped a set as well, also how it pans off the stern rails of the German ship as well.

IDK, seems there’s still little bit of hopes that submarine will come in this update.

Ehhh…
Submarines are a “big ticket” item. If they were in the update at all, they would have been in the teaser. Unless they drop a second teaser all about submarines, I don’t see that happening.
Screenshots of a destroyer, in an update that we were told would have mostly destroyers, is not evidence of submarines.
(I’m not saying it’s impossible. But we shouldn’t get our hopes up)

I understand, but that’s Z47, which is already in the game. You can even see the ship in the photo having the exact same camo pattern. What possible reason could let a existing German ship appears in the trailer?
I actually won’t be too surprised whenever the subs coming in this update or not, we can already see those detailed submarine model in WTM. I just think they might still working on mechanic like maps, balance, ASW systems and so on.
Last but not least, I can simply go play sea power, which gaves me much more fun than endless grinding.

The destroyer was likely a Zerstörer 1944 like Z52.

Yeah maybe, but the destroyer in photo posted by forum moderator is clearly Type 1936C Z47. But yeah mod might mistaken who is the protagonist.
Hell no!!
On that subject,
Even if submarines aren’t being added in this update, the new depth charge effects and torpedo lines are more clear evidence that submarines are being worked on.
The depth charge effects especially. They’re a weapon with almost no actual use cases in the game right now, so taking the time to rework their graphics doesn’t make a lot of sense unless they’re going to be used a lot more in the future!

Ooh! Ooh! What if it’s the Swedish Naval TT?

it’s not really a visual effect exclusive to depth charges, it seems all water impacts/detonations are being overhauled. But I share the sentiment that it’s another step closer to submarines

Yeah I was more showing off that there was a German ship.
As said here I personally feel if SUBS did come it would very much be the star part of the teaser

That and I would assume there would be a uptick in asw ships and perhaps planes beforehand

Oh thanks for your direct response, but as I said I kinda misunderstood your photo because that’s a ship already in the game, especially with the new depth charge visual effects on the background. And yeah, I suppose submarine should take a huge part of the trailer if they are really coming, guess I was too tired last night.
Translations from the RU dev stream.
In case it isn’t clear, submarines aren’t coming in this update.
