We've got some riveting plans in the works for 2024 affecting submarines and aircraft carriers, and we thought you'd like to know what it's all about.

Itwastuesday Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 My guess is : - CV planes get to drop a buyou that captures zones and has 0.1 concealment - Submarine surveillance removed, instead both team submarines win if they are the last ones alive. Everybody else gets a loss. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verblonde Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Perhaps WG have already hit their turnover budgets for Satan boxes for this year, and are ready to announce something awful now that they've got enough people's money? Ever the optimist, me... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine they have the models ready for that, though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, they gonna tell us that " Come on, everybody knew that was coming" and "Its not fair that subs and Cv's are not allowed" or somethin' along those lines. Aka crap. I don't see anything else that could affect both classes. Except maybe some cap rework, but the timing......is very sus.... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Verblonde Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Contemplating the general themes here, and being aware of WG's usual approach to customer feedback, I may have discerned what's coming: a line of submarines that carry aircraft (including the regular CV feature of regenerating planes), and those aircraft will all have an extra armament option that goes through more armour, whilst doing the same damage as regular arms, and - naturally - to reduce excessive spam, said armament will cost more silver to use (and because WG listen it won't be called 'gold' ammo). Thus two birds are killed with one stone: the submarines' issue with not being able to project influence very far is fixed (planes), and the CVs' problem of getting their hulls sunk is similarly reduced (submersible). It's inevitable. (Gods, I *really* hope I don't turn out to be prescient here, and am just extracting the urine...) 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let us hope and pray they give us good news.

I'm not sure about the Jules Verne original, but I do remember it being the case in a film I enjoyed very much as a boy: The Amazing Captain Nemo. Not just nuclear powered, but equipped with a laser cannon that could shoot down ICBMs. (Yes, from underwater. Whatever. I was a kid. It was fun.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
