Just think of it a T9 A hull Izumo outfitted Atlanta type guns.- awesome. WG please give us the chance to build own ships out of the spare parts we have. - it would be fun. We could create rat rod divisions out of our put together ships. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are probably too many balance considerations, and you wouldn't know what you are fighting when you meet a rat rod in-game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This game is different from other games like Navy Field. We can't have ships like a Udaloi running around with Yamato guns, and we don't need Kurfursts running around with Shima torpedoes.

Having something like that would totally ruin the balance of the game with ships having equipment and modules they otherwise SHOULD NOT HAVE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Having something like that would totally ruin the balance of the game with ships having equipment and modules they otherwise SHOULD NOT HAVE Doesn't mean it can't be some PvE mode or casual PvP that doesn't track stats or something. It would certainly give some impetuous to keep certain modules around. Even more so if you could only use the A hull of ships for modification.

Anyway, they had plenty of "tree" mechs to use, but I loved making my own "frankenmechs" This was a popular pastime in the game, and some even became "cannon." Won't work in this game, but yeah, it would be interesting... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Guest 0 posts Report post #23 Posted February 9, 2017 Sounds like something that would come out of an entirely different franchise that doesn't have to worry as much with balancing issues. World of Warships would never be able to implement such a feature as players would quickly find ways to exploit the system to create extremely overpowered warships.

3,407 Compassghost Supertest Coordinator 7,223 posts 14,434 battles Report post #24 Posted February 9, 2017 Can i replace arkansas main armament with Quintuple torp launchers? No. Battleships cannot mount torpedoes, per Warship Gunner 2 Treaty limitations. They can, however, mount wave guns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
