Shiki Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 1 hour ago, IronKaputt said: Source? I only heard about 780 kg Long Lance variant. Six-tube launcher also would be nice. Streamlined shells (I absolutely adore boat-tails), filler % (1,5-3% for AP, up to 15% for HE), dye (and perhaps tracers) color, fuzes (especially for torps). For guns and mounts: damn RoF and traverse speed, reliability for both cases, barrel life (chrome plating and wear reduce additives), weight reducing tech, base accuracy of course, gain-twist and gradual rifling (dunno if it worked together, but I'm a greedy perfectionist). Would be sad, if I'll have to simply mod meself some fancy stuff, for it is kinda unsporty. Lacroix & Wells mention it under "Torpedo Ordnance" in Appendix H of Japanese Cruisers of the Pacific War, p.779-780. As for your other suggestions... yes, I want all of those things too. I'm also a perfectionist and I want everything to be as minutely detailed as possible so that I can build ships the way I want to, right down to the number of lands and twists in a gun barrel. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same, i want muh quads and fat guns. But makes me wonder if something has happened internally or the campaign is taking a lot of resources more than they would of initially thought in the first place. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was kinda hoping for USN and Japanese Cruiser hulls as well and maybe usn california hulls to bridge us over back in alpha 3-4, but oh well. We will just have to wait i guess.

I hope the dev team is ok. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapnAvont1015 Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 I really hope when this game comes to Steam they figure out how to do modding because I know a lot of people is gonna want to submit hulls, towers, and guns into the game. And hopefully they would take some pressure of the devs for designing ship parts. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allowing easy steam workshop modding (at least from beta onwards) would be much more preferable. In general, I think more assets/models at this time should not be the priority over improvements to the ship designer itself. Of course, I'm thankful for quad turrets, but being able to put them and their barbettes precisely where we want them would be even better. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, also it allows modellers like myself to pump out stuff and improve our skills while also doing something we like a lot as well. Plus we can go historical or not which is the beauty of it as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skeksis Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 (edited) Quote Make battle lines with ease: You will be able to create a group of any ship type and merge into one single formation, which will be controllable as one unit (selectable from the unit cards). What’s this "selectable from the unit cards", a new UI? Edited October 12, 2020 by Skeksis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I think they should have start with off-brand, modular hulls and components and add iconic ships later. I also hope we'll have more control over hulls specs (and looks), like belt inclination, bow shape, welding etc. Never actually played RTW, but enjoyed greatly reading the tech trees. Would be sad to just "research modern hull II" instead. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapnAvont1015 Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Hmmm. If they ever add aircraft carriers in the campaign would it be a bad idea to have the option to turn them off. Like a box you can click and CVs will not be apart of your campaign. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cdodders Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 I want aircraft carriers just so I can make AA ships. I don't know how port defences will work in the campaign but I see myself converting old Pre-Dreadnoughts and eventually early Dreadnoughts into floating fortresses, Keeping their MB but having lots of AA guns and as much armour as possible 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And degaussers - the more I think about, fuze tech alone adds some much fun and gameplay diversity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be nice to see those implemented as well. They were not very reliable in their use tho. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishyfish Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 How interesting to sit and reflect upon this game. I purchased it almost exactly one year ago, as I had shreked my back last October and was home from work for almost 10 days. I bought this game during that time and it got me through it. Now, almost a year later I can see just how far it's come since then.. and uh.. huh. Yeah. I bought it just after update 2, 3? I think it was 2. Hmm. All I have to say is hmm. Lets see how this patch goes, when it goes. When ever it goes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
