of course people will be crying over anything new...
so, yes-these guns CAN be powerful, but CAN is the keyword here.
1-we are in a freggin sub, if a BB is going to let a SS pop up next to it and spend 10+ seconds of direct fire, its their fault. I don't know to many SS's that can take a full broadside of any BB in close enough range without being sunk/severe dmg.
2-very limited use. I have played quite a few rounds with my new SS4 and maybe on 2 occasions actually found a good use for them (not counting just having fun with them)
3-in order to use these we have to carry some HEAVY gunners, not to mention have them in the first place. I for one do not have a KM BB crew so was forced to power lvl and/or buy some gunners to use. So using these guns will dramatically slow us down
4. Very limited ammo-if you want to be effective and carry both HE and AA shells, you get enough to slightly damage a ship and shoot down a few scouts, thats all. For all that weight, is 30 seconds of fire really worth it?
5. As a KM ss4, we're still stuck with only 4 front tubes and 3 support slots, compared to say the IJN with 5 support and 8 front tubes. So while most subs got better , we got "funguns"
