Having given this some further thought, this might be referring to the red circle of the player 's own noise, rather than the sonar return of others. It 's probably fine for that to stay on the minimap display, in this early time where detectible noise radius is universal across all ships and only relating to their throttle setting.

Hopefully bigger maps, more realistic battles and carriers… fix for Yamato and nerf for Soyuz. Meanwhile hopefully if added then much laiter or far above any ww2 br all the ew anti ship modern rocket “stuff”
They already are in the game, on a few coastal vehicles.
They release a trailer showing changes in naval forces and tell us “this is just the tip of the iceberg” and then tell us to calm down.

I’d assume that it’s a potential tip that subs are next update I guess.
I believe that too. Last summer’s updates were always very naval-related.

Idk if you guys noticed, but while playing ULQ i realised that there is a black oil patch showing up when dropping depth charges…

Why is that oil stain appearing? I don’t understand why it’s there if you’re not damaging any boats.

Idk, it happens when dropping depth charges, i think it might have to do something with subs, cus when they sank a uboat there would usually apear debry and a black stain of oil in the sea

I dont think thats oil patch. Probably some black color layer supporting new water effects. But since there is no foam, bubbles and other stuff, it looks like this.

I’ve been checking things the community is saying, that the developers won’t be releasing a naval-focused update this summer, but rather focusing on other things. This could mean the naval update will arrive around the anniversary, when they usually introduce new mechanics. In short, submarines might not be coming this summer, but they could be for the anniversary.
UBOAT is getting new DLC this April so I will be playing subs whether its from Gaijin or not.

Wait there are quotes from the CMs about this? Or just people speculating?
Niche, might just be a bug for now, but I’ve spotted AI FF/DE/DDE dumping depth charges in matches, I reckon AI ships won’t be free game with submarines if added next update. (Don’t think AI’s carried depth charges in battles in the past).
Annoyingly it lights up your radars if your ship carries them.

Well remember soon will be April 1st so Gaijin could try to test something. Though my guess it will be around carriers not subs Gaijin has already tested subs twice.
