The feeling of speed at sea


jodgi

Recommended Posts

I tried out some speeds at sea just to get a better feel, or as reference to the speeds of the ships in NA. Driving a car doesn't quite do it for me. For whatever it is worth:

 

10 knots:

 

 

16 knots, in the name of trincs and renoms:

 

 

It really is fast, isn't it?

 

22 knots for the pre nerfed renoms with speedmods:

 

 

41 knots, just because I could :D

Everyone please keep in mind that the slitest change in hight to the water really changes your feeling of speed.

When swimning (5cm to eyes) 2 kts is insanely fast, sitting on a 420er (~20cm above the water + length of torso) the same speed is "damm, not moving at all :-(".

When you are on the upper deck of a Channel ferry, that would equal the usual camera position in the OW, atleast for me, 26kts feels like 4 in a 420er or perhaps like 7 in Jodgi's boat.

In the open world of course there is tje time compression aswell.
