    So I've played 34 matches in a sub so far. It was common for me to get one hit and be blown up within the first few minutes. I watched this video and learned some cool stuff. Now I'm getting 11 to 18 hits, one or two destroyed ships, and I'm living to the end of the match. Of the 12 matches I played today, i was 50-50 win-loss, but even in a couple of the losses, I had hits and kills and survived to the end, just time ran out. Thanks for this video.

    This seems more like a mechanics only video, while it doesn’t really explain what matchups you want to avoid, as submarines are heavily countered by other submarines and sonars, so you want to know what ships have sonar, and simply evade them at max depth if they ever target you.
    A rule of thumb is all german ships have sonar.
    And all cruisers.
    With a few destroyers that you might want to learn by heart.
    The best approach is to stay clear of a flank where they have a sonar destroyer or submarine.
    These tricks are nice, but most often pre-pinging enemies isn’t a great tactic, as they’ll just turn away. Instead, I’d suggest shooting the torpedoes at the predicted location of an enemy, and when the torps are 6 km from their target, ping the enemy centre. This way they don’t have enough time to evade, and your torpedoes avoid slight misses.
    Pinging should only be done beyond 7 km range, as you’ll otherwise take a lot of damage from depth charge planes. Instead dumbfire torpedoes, even if you miss, at least you won’t give away your location at such a close distance.
    Only use the alternative torpedoes on battleships and carriers.

    I'm also beginning to seriously doubt the claims of these amazing homing torpedoes. My U-69 more often than naught just misses outright despite double pinging. destroyers, cruisers and battleships juke them easily if they are heading straight for you. It only works when they are running away in the opposite direction or have their repair down.

    • @normalguyofthenorth
      @normalguyofthenorth  Před 11 měsíci +6

      The issue now is these homing torps can be seen from the moon, I have no issue juking them now. I believe for most at 1.4km they stop tracking so easily for a DD to dodge. Also I have noticed that RNG is not nice to torps anymore. Thanks for watching.

    Well that was interesting. I don't play subs much, don't like them much but when i do play them i suck. Watched this just out of interest and had one game. First try i killed a destroyer at the longest range after he had seen the torpedo's coming and gone to hide behind an island. Ended up with 2 kills and we lost, i had a destroyer and 2 other ships onto me at close range. They could not touch me until i ran out of battery.

    Nice video, but you havent addressed the most common issue here. "SONAR HAS BEEN CLEARED" which basically is, you throw torps, 2-3km before reaching target they clear sonar, torps lose target of course and then you end up with a bunch of planes airdropping you because you gave away your position. And trust me those demonic light cruisers will hunt you through enemy battleship fire just to get you!!! Also torpedoes for some forsaking reason lose track if the ship is out of your visibility even though he might have a sonar lock. Also we have NO COUNTERMEASURES

  • @Phaedarus
    @Phaedarus Před 11 měsíci +1

    Love the video but still struggling:
    1. Games are too short; most last 10 minutes. Getting into position takes time. By the time on the enemy flank, the game is half over without me being able to do much if any damage. This is especially true for maps with many islands dotted around; which leads me to the next point.
    2. Islands are huge impediments to my torpedoes. I do try and curve them around but it usually ends up in failure.
    3. Most ships are smart enough to clear the ping right when the torpedoes are detected and then they maneuver out; so the salvo is wasted. I guess I could try pinging until they clear it and then launch but that's still wasted time if I'm at max range which I can ill afford to waste when other vessels begin closing in since subs are #1 targets.
    4. A lot of positioning on the flanks takes up valuable battery time unless I immediately move out of my starting point. However, I am denying my team crucial intel on enemy positions, especially when I'm at I'm spawned in a group without a destroyer nearby to scout.
    5. one of the biggest reasons I struggle is because I'm not good at pinging ships further than 9km. It's even harder for me vs enemy subs I spot that dive deep. Maybe you can do a tutorial on accurate pinging. Almost impossible with hydro up unless ships are REAL close because ship movements aren't displayed in real time.
    6. Is it just me or are aft torpedoes in the U-69 super inaccurate compared to bow torpedoes? They appear to take a lot longer to curve in when fired at 90 degrees.
    7. Most maps begins with sub vs subs within the first 3 minutes due to all subs spawning in opposite ends of the map. Would be more fun if they were spawned on opposite corners.
    The biggest complaint really is 1. Submarine mechanics of stealth, evasion and positioning is ponderous in length compared to other ships, which world of warships is geared towards in terms of pacing. Not nearly long enough for a 10 minute game. The second biggest is sub vs sub. It's not only NOT fun but we all end up wasting battery time going deep to avoid a lock on one another instead of hunting surface ships. When sub surveillance is up, we both activate it, giving away everyone's positions on the map and subsequently that ends up with both subs dead as we take incoming from DDs depth charges and bombers. I especially despise maps with six subs.
    Looking forward to watching more of your content.

    • @normalguyofthenorth
      @normalguyofthenorth  Před 11 měsíci

      Sorry for the delay in response, your points are very well written. I love points and inputs like yours.
      1. I agree and MM is driving me nuts.
      2. It can be hard, but with practice I'm pretty good now as well on the mini map I watch my my torp progress to ensure there going to clear an island before I ping the ship.
      3. I very rarely use the ping now, however I would ping once or twice an see what the enemy does and fire only 2 torps at a time. If that helps.
      4. When I'm flanking I stay on the surface only a DD or CV will make me dive.
      5. This one takes practice. I now use non-homing torps on ships and homing torps on subs. I would recommend using the training rooms to test on bots that can move high intelligence but not arm so they can hurt you.
      6. I'm not sure about this one I'll have to go test.
      7. Ya I agree with this a lot.
      First anything more that 2 subs is just wrong, also I do not like 2 CV matches as well. I just did a sub vs sub vid today so please have a watch. I would recommend only using ping on subs and non-homing on everything else. The training room is your friend.
      Great points and thanks for watching.

    • @normalguyofthenorth
      @normalguyofthenorth  Před rokem +2

      I'm glad it helped. Shot-gunning is when a DD and sub are heading at each other and the DD is waiting for the sub to shoot its torps at the last minute. Subs usually miss get depth charged and die. However, if you wait and time the DD turn and drift you can torp them and kill them. Thanks for watching.

Killing one dd and surviving (even with 20% hp) gives my team advantage, becouse opposing team now have one spotter less. If my hp is extreamly low after that encounter I always may snipe bbs from more then 6-8 km (outside their deph bomb radius).

    My torpedoes don't stay linked to the ping location. When I shoot they start of with a little green line from the nose of the torp to the ping on the ship, then they lose it. I'm shooting from depth, so I don't know if that's the problem, but it sucks. All distances, from nearly shaking hands to 7-8 km. Any thoughts? Driving the S-189 if that matters.

    • @normalguyofthenorth
      @normalguyofthenorth  Před 10 měsíci +1

      Couple of things, the enemy could be clearing your ping? S-189 has a very limited ping time of 30 seconds I believe. Also tracking stops at certain distances for certain types of ships. (See below from WG) Also if the ship was maneuvering homing torps just can miss like non acoustic torps. Try her in the training room hunting down a single bot ship on high ability. I hope that helps. Thanks for watching.
      The range at which homing is switched off is 2.1 km for battleships, 1.2 km for aircraft carriers, 720 m for cruisers (360 in case of double sonar ping effect), and 240 m for destroyers and submarines (120 in case of double sonar ping effect).

    Want a real tip for dealing with moving targets that can speed juke or out turn your torps as a sub? Just slightly under lead you torps and ping the rudder section of the ship. Very High chance you will hit. The only way to avoid is to time Dcp correctly, stop and turn in simultaneously; but you become a sitting Duck as a surface ship.

      @LoanwordEggcorn Před rokem +1

      As far as I know all subs have homing torps, but some higher tier subs add an alternate torp that is non-homing, longer range (usually slower) and a lot more powerful.
      You don't have to use ping, but if you do, you can use it late, i.e., launch torps in the right direction first, then ping later, as they near the target. If the target hasn't changed direction *, don't even ping.
      The more often you ping, the easier you are to find, and that's a bad thing.
      * Never go in a straight line if you're detected. Always change direction or speed all the time when actually engaged with an opponent.

      @@normalguyofthenorth You cant properly beat subs without compromising your intended role as any of the surface ships, DDs and cruisers especially. The game isnt a 1v1 game, so whether or not you know how to close in on a sub is irrelevant in the absolute vast majority of cases, since surface ships usually cant engage due to spotting and other surface ships shooting the hell out of them. Hence you are left with a class that outspots everything, and the best counterplay to it is to run away. This class is absolute trash for the game.

  • @duanecantwell8730

    About 20 matches in a sub. My biggest issue is battery conservation. I get in and get torpedoes on target but 2:36 is t enough to get out again without having to surface and take major damage. Averaging one ship sunk a match so this is a limiting factor for me. Suggestions?

    • @normalguyofthenorth
      @normalguyofthenorth  Před rokem

      first off averaging one ship sunk is pretty good. I always insure I have enough battery to get away even if I'm yolo in. I would recommend yo go into the training room and put a ship in with no movement and not armed and on the surface and at periscope time how long it takes you to get out of detectability. last max dive and run away, as far as you can and try not to surface when the batteries die. I think you gave me a great idea for a new video. Thanks for watching.

  • @jeffreyblevins4234
    @jeffreyblevins4234 Před rokem +1

    Did they change the way the Subs operate? I just can't get a fix on how to play them. Almost every round I end up being detected by some random destroyer or sub that lights me up up and then dumps DC's all over my head. I follow the "run on the surface as much as possible model" but that just seems to not be working. Also, my torps NEVER hit. I can ping a target all day and my torp will miss 90% of the time, they certainly aren't bending around islands. My dummy fire torps are just laughable. Granted, this is all VERY realistic historically speaking since (especially America's) early torps had a nasty habit of detonating early and alerting EVERYONE, missing, not detonating at all, or looping around and sinking the submarine. It's to the point where I just run co-op to try various strategies, but good lord Co-op is unforgiving for subs.

    • @normalguyofthenorth
      @normalguyofthenorth  Před rokem

      CO-OP is perfect anti sub tactics, however if you get good there you will be better in Randoms. I'm not sure what tier your playing most so it hard to tell, however play the T6 orT8 and not higher so you can get use to it was well I have a detail review coming out this weekend on the German line since it's changed a bit. if you want send me a replay to my email address normalguyofthenorth@gmail.com and I'll take a look.

    Seems I don't get the reaction with the torps like you do when I shoot them. Double ping and still doesn't seem the torps curve. The torps seem to just dissappear instead of turning back to the target. I've also seen people recommend commanders but I searched and couldn't find any sub commanders, only showed cruiser commanders. Your tips have helped me improve game play. I'm still struggling under water to hit targets after rarely seeing the grayed ships. Also have a problem with subs, nothing on radar nothing showing and I get a random ping and I'm dead.

    I'm trying to play U-69, but somehow almost everybody is able to dodge my homed torps, even BBs and even if I ping after launching torps. That homing cut-off distance is screwing me really bad. Many people say that homed torpedos are unavoidable and free damage for a sub, but in my experience they are extremely easily dodgeable if you know what you are doing.
    Hell, today I was chasing a BB and he dodged all my homed torps for almost 10 minutes straight. Couldn't land even one.
