@ultra

you could take down smaller targets and make your torps count!!! rather than trying to hog
the better kills and probably getting yourself killed in the process risking the victory
of your team.

you could have maybe taken down 2-3 bb4 nstead of wasting 13-18 torps on a single bb6 only
for it not to sink.

i fully support nerfing subs damage.

but i do hope they give subs more air time, well lower tier subs atleast.

ultra dog!?!?!?!?!


i dont have a sub i really think they need a buff HHs should be direct hit but dose
alot of damage DCs when you drop them in the water and they exploed your sonar
gets scrambled for 5 to 10 secs subs should be faster under water cause they
waste half of thare time getting to the planes first of all and i dont think a T4 sub(i
gusse its like a BB4 or 5 sumthing) shouldnt have to struggle with the same tier
stuff

i mean BBs can be stronger faster escorts DCs HHs and scouts and YOU wanna nerf
a SS i mean i hate it when i get killed by one but thats rare

subs are overpowered in some way and ASW is overpowered.
It will be hell to bring them in line. But i have to admit subs arent that overpowered as
everyone says.
Less speed and everyone will run away. Less dmg and u will run out of air before killing it.
Maybe an idea here: when subs are in OH u can see them in gmae but not as read dot on the
minimap. Furthermore a OH time reduction gained by Engineer along with a AIR buff. This
should slow down sub gameplay while still be able to chase ships till dead and furthermore
allows cautions ships to detect subs more easyly.

just an idea but a real solution must be delayed till SUB/ASW fixing is on schedule. Now i
want to get done with MN/SN

Yes they will be nerf'd.

>>> Duh, because they are overpowered

I expect them to have their torpedoes nerf'd so that instead of 12 torpedoes to sink
a BB5, it will take 16-18. BB6s will drain all torpedoes and still motor along at 45
knots unaffected.

>>> Depends on the tier, having 12 torps to sink a BB5 from a level 75ish ship is
unbalanced. And no BB6 does 45 knots, and no BB6 can drain a sub of all its torps.

I expect their speed to be reduced by 30%

>>> Subs are too fast, I am glad you agree.

I expect the air supply to be reduced from a paltry 3 minutes to 2 minutes..or less.

>>> Doubtful, depends on other stats.

I expect the power of Hedgehogs and Depth Charges to increase substantially.

>>> Probably not

I expect the DP to be dropped to FF levels so that any stray shell will sink the subs
immediately.

>>> Instead of what we have now where they still take full salvo's from BB's?

I expect the range of torpedoes to be decreased, along with their speed and
damage. I also expect the reload rate of torpedoes to be increase 3 to 4 times
what it already is.

>>> I also expect you to use this area properly, not for your sarcastic whines.

I expect a new crop of ASW ships to defeat subs even more

>>> If you can't avoid ASW in SS, you are doing it wrong.

the real pompoms and the old in-game pompoms could load HE shells.

If this was re-implimented I would be rushing with my Midway

If the real U-Flak guns could load binds of HE or AA, then it is a legit setup.

How many other AA guns run both AA and HE?

Quit belly-ache complaining about SS. Enough of your cry baby complaints and just
carry some hedgehogs and an escort. If you are sunk by an SS ...IT IS YOUR FAULT.
You are the capain of your ship, learn to stay alive.
