Wish every game would do this. It is open and wonderful. Side note, I came to learn about flooding in ships in real life, how they handle it, and how they attempt to mitigate it.
You're in the wrong place then lol. This video series only talks about game mechanics, which are often very unrealistic. Real world ships are usually built with lots of separate watertight compartments. So if the hull is breached in one place, that section of the ship can be sealed off. Then, once the ship is no longer being shot at, workers can go and attempt to seal up the hole in the hull and pump water out of the compartment. But in many cases this is not possible, and the ship just has to sail (or be towed) back to port while partially flooded, where it can be put into a dry dock and repaired.
I mean... that you only lose 10% HP for each instance of flooding on a DD as opposed to 20% doesn't matter that much considering you've just lost 99% of your HP already most of the time...
Looking at that calculation at ~4:40 tells me that the Damage Control System is a complete waste of (in-game) money. Having the flooding chance reduced from roughly 57% to 55% means, that you'd have to be hit by roughly 50 torpedoes to have the DCS system prevent a single flooding.
Can we expect a rework of the liquidator acheivement? It seems near impossible to achieve now that floodings are single 30-40 second instances meaning you have to 1) find an enemy who has recently used damage control with a lot of HP left 2) hit that enemy with 2 torpedoes very soon after(so that damage control doesnt come off cooldown) and after all those unlikely circumstances, you have to 3) secure the kill after the full flooding timers has run their course. As it stands with the game today, this is extremely unlikely and as of the flooding rework, I have yet to see a single person get a liquidator, not that it was very common to begin with
im always wondering why bigger ship took more damage from flooding compared than smaller ship? it doesn't make sense, that they are hit by the same torpedo, but different in flooding's damage taken. Bigger ship has better structural integrity, thus should be able to withstand the explosion better. Or did i missed something?
What if shells hitting somewhere below the waterline cause flooding ( ˘ ͜ʖ ˘) Also, I wish I can mount signals on my house during the monsoon season and maybe install modules as well.
死神様 They did, in the past. Destroyers got screwed over specifically, as well as many other ship types. Turned out having everyone aim at the waterline for citadels almost gave for many underwater hits and flooding. So they removed it i believe during Beta Testing.
Soooo ... you're saying flooding is active for 30 secs on CVs and 40 secs on any other ship class ... and proceed to show a 60 second flooding timer three minutes later. GG
My question is, Why do CVs, who already have boatloads of advantages and near BB hit points take reduced damage from flooding? Are you saying they had better watertight compartmentalization than BBs? Being big floating tanks of petrol and explosives makes them resistant to flooding? Please, explain WoWs Official Channel.
I like where the new flooding is at right now. Not a death sentence if you don't have your damage control up, but still a nice damage source and debuff.
Dear War Gaming Please make a video explaining why an enemy ship's shells can hit below or above my ship and still magically hit me. Thank you, A WOWS player
I remember back before they changed flooding, people complained it was too harsh. Really they still do. It's a *boat*, of all of the bad things that could happen to it, I think a giant hole in the bottom is probably the worst thing.
Somewhere in the Pacific in WWII... Captain of a US battleship: "Fire our main battery at that Japanese light cruiser!" CO: "Sir, they have just hoisted 5 different flags." Captain: "NO!! They upgraded their armor just a minute ago! scoot home, quickly son!"
Flooding right now feels pretty weak compared to fires. Low floor chances in CV torps plus that floods don't last very long now. Perhaps increase the base duration to 60 seconds and the percentage of damage on battleships by a single full duration flood to 30% to make Liquidator achievements more feasible.
You can be on fire all day but as soon as you get a flooding as a BB it’s a problem that needs an immediate fix. But if I remember correctly flooding used to be way worse. So maybe this’ll bring back. Don’t know yet
I want to make a suggestion for future updates for realism. All tho the game is highly realistic, i want to see listing form the ships when damaged, I realized that the ships never list, but if they did it would add some much realism. Thank you and good day.
So what you are saying is that if you go down to the docks, drill a hole in a boat, it won't sink as long as water covers said hole? Displacement and water pressure are some useful topics to look into.
Damage control system modification needs a buff. -2% chance of flooding really isn't impactful when you are dealing with >50% chances. A flat -10% chance to flood would make it more worthwhile, at least on the flooding end.
I find it funny, the flooding dmg is opposite of the real world. A BB that can withstand a WHOLE lot more flooding in real life, takes the most in the game dmg where a DD that in real life takes a torp going off just near it, will flood pretty much go down in a matter of minutes, in game it only looses 10% HP.
this was my favorite serie, till i thought it was cut. BTW, what's the music at 0:16, always want to find it since seasmackdown=_=let me see, ep 12fuso?
To avoid torpedoes quickly spot for any thing that looks like it's going to torpedo you when they start to line up put it into reverse and turn left or right depending on where the torpedoes are coming from don't turn your back on destroyers or cruisers be careful especially bb
Speaking of building holes on a ship inside of a game, I find it nearly impossible for flooding a virtual gaming battleship with the Omaha battleship. Idk why, but I am just saying for the fun of this game. It is great though to know about battleship history in terms of obtaining knowledge.
Basically if you get hit by a torp and you start flooding, press R. Then pray to heaven that you don’t get another torpedo salvo coming to you 5 seconds later.
In war, when a ship is disabled, unless it is going to sink very quickly it is usually destroyed by the crew (often using shaped explosives called scuttling charges). This is done to prevent the enemy from finding it before it sinks and gaining useful information or materials from it.
Now what I want to know is how I can speed my kaiser and to dodge torpedoes by going in between of it I do the technique but my ship is too slow to do it

Nah. Getting hit by a normal torpedo is one thing. Getting hit by a fully sonar pinged submarine torpedo is another

A feature I would love to see would be life boats launching and bonuses for picking up survivors
When will the list become a feature and affects the aiming of a ship
Hopefully, never
I mean... that you only lose 10% HP for each instance of flooding on a DD as opposed to 20% doesn't matter that much considering you've just lost 99% of your HP already most of the time...
yeah if you're in DD a single torp from enemy DD that hit you have a chance to delete you anyway
@@pacchi1939 happened to me plenty of times :^)
even in a cruiser (ref: mogami) a single torp will rip 1/4 of your HP, you failed to dodge, back to port D':

They did, in the past.
Destroyers got screwed over specifically, as well as many other ship types. Turned out having everyone aim at the waterline for citadels almost gave for many underwater hits and flooding. So they removed it i believe during Beta Testing.
That used to be a mechanic in the past. It was ultimately removed because flooding was too common as a result
Soooo ... you're saying flooding is active for 30 secs on CVs and 40 secs on any other ship class ... and proceed to show a 60 second flooding timer three minutes later. GG
Just love how they replace periods with commas for their percentage information
Comma is the European decimal point character.

So much for the Alabama's torpedo armor, that health went down quick.

If flooding is 40s for DD, CL/CA, and BB (1:53), and that time cannot be increased, why does the Alabama take 60s (5:18)?
It's old footage. Note the flood symbol is on the middle of the boat, as it was when you only used to be able to get one flood at a time.
These should be in a play list and if you could make an updated one for legends on console that would be great
When ships flood they should list to the side that was hit by the torpedos to make it more realistic
Somewhere in the Pacific in WWII...

Yes but usually stops when the water reaches the hole in the inside of the boat make sure you add that realistic feature later basic physics

Because Hits with irian or asashio torps are most of time a guarante of flooding.. 🤔
Leaving only 2 floodings was a bad idea. Better liked when it was more. And I play every class since BETA.
I would like this episode redone, it was too short, instead of using the Alabama, why now the Montana with legendary module?
What's more dangerous is that you use a BB and then the game lags when the torpedoes are coming at you

NO! God no. They did this during the alpha test and it was awful.
