    Personally, I really want to see more cruisers and a few destroyers that look more like their own unique design. Right now, every cruiser is either a downscaled battleship or that same old "Modern Cruiser."

    First examples that come to mind are:
    US Navy: Brooklyn Class, Atlanta Class, Cleveland Class, Baltimore Class, Portland Class, Northampton Class, Clemson Class, Fletcher Class, Gearing Class
    IJN: Fuso class, Kongo class, Takao/Myoko class, and some additional destroyer designs.
    Royal Navy: Mainly the Town class, though there are others (I'm not very well acquainted with Royal Navy designs of WWII), and some additional destroyer types
     

    Basically, most of the ships I personally want to see depend on the addition of additional superstructure designs/modules, a revamped gun and barbette system (especially in the case of the Atlanta: it's a Light Cruiser with 5" destroyer main guns, which currently isn't allowed, and has the triple super-firing turret design), the ability to possibly choose which gun look/design you want and the introduction of new looks, and probably a handful of new hulls and funnels.

    I like to see a good Fletcher class and I agree with your superstructure quote

    Take a look at the original designs for the North Carolina class for examples of US quads or even the 1.1" AA quad mount. The French did their own thing. Also the Bofors is a Swedish gun, later built by the British, then the US. So it's layout is not a factor of US design philosophy

    I totally understand I just think it'll make the US ships more authentic and looking because the model used in the game is identical to the quad 40s that's all I'm saying.

    40mm Bofors is not really in the game. The secondaries go down to 2in, which is 57mm. Light and medium AA isn't actually represented.

    I understand but look at the French design it looks exactly like  40-mm boofers in quad, three bbl and single. It would just make the American battleships look more authentic then the three inch.

     

  4. I noticed that the French design let's you put the quad 40 bofors but the US designed only have triple 3 in guns that were not really on battleships or heavy cruisers possibly twin 3 in 50s but the quad 40s were all over the battleships and the design shows where these quad 40s go but for now they're only available on the later French design

  5. 1, Gunfire directors turn and point towards the target.

    2, Flower class Corvette

    3, Ships capsize when taken certain damage

    4, Bad weather, high sea's and night time battles.

    5, Save ship and save battle option

    6, Besides ship damage, crew casualties

    7, More damage like total destroyed funnel, masts blown off superstructures etc

    8, Accurate Pennsylvania class hulls original and Pearl harbor modifications

    9, All Pearl harbor hulls and superstructures 

    10, Shore/Land engagements, maybe river scenarios' for torpedo boats along with civil War ironclads

    11,  Porter-class destroyer and  Somers-class destroyer's

    12, Submarine hunting and evading, depth charges etc

    13, Besides just turrets being blown sky high, how about high order detonation's i.e. USS Arizona, HMS Bahram Ammo Cargo ships etc

    14, Small caliber guns have air burst feature for use on smaller ships etc.

     

    Thanks for a very cool game.

  6. I've noticed that everyday when i play especially in custom battle mode something new pops up, for example when i first started playing about three weeks ago, i have the Alpha V75 verson when a ship was hit or sunk not much exciting happened but now i see turrets fly off, oil leakes, life boats launched, battle damage and floatsam.

    Is the game being tweaked every day?

     

    I can't wait to see what happens next, Maybe capsizing and stuff.

  7. I'm hoping to have better hull class to choose from ie, Pennsylvania class, original and after refit in 1929 to Pearl Harbor spects and with Tripod masts with the three story fighting tops along with all of the Pearl Harbor ships and more superstructer placement and availibility.

    Possibly more realistic damage, the flying turrets are cool though.

    Since we can ad AA mounts, perhaps some air attacks, and lastly to be able to record and save battles etc.

     

    Thanks
