0.11.2 Closed Testing: Changes to Superships, Hornet, and Submarines

0.11.2 Closed Testing: Changes to Superships, Hornet, and Submarines

Based on testing results, WG are applying changes to Superships, Hornet, submarines, and depth charges. The changes listed below will go live with the release of Update 0.11.2 and will already be present in the second stage of the current Public Test session.

 
Changes to Submarines and Depth Charges
Recently we announced the return of submarine testing along with details about what was changing for them. 
The newly updated submarines have already appeared on the Public Test for Update 0.11.2. Based on the results of the first round of PT, we've prepared additional changes aimed at improving submarine gameplay and their interaction with surface ships and other submarines. 
  • Submarines at Tier VI are performing within the norm, but at Tiers VIII and X, they begin to drop off. To improve the situation we have changed the progression of submarine torpedoes. These changes will also emphasize the gameplay differences between different nations’ subs:
    • German submarines have effective homing torpedoes
    • American submarines enjoy powerful conventional torpedoes
  • We’ve significantly reduced the arming distance of homing torpedoes. This change will make interactions between submarines easier, and at the same time won’t have a significant effect on surface ships due to the low base damage of homing torpedoes.
  • The average lifetime of submarines appeared to be excessively high. In order to lower it, we've increased the reload time of their Damage Control Party as well as the damage dealt by Airstrike depth charges.
