So About Update 0.6.2

Weymouth, Königsberg, Nürnberg, Kaiser, Albany and all Japanese ships except aircraft carriers: national flags have been moved from the stern (staff) to the mast

 

This line can be found in the Patch Notes.

 

So now I wonder. Why? I don't care about the first few since I don't really know where their flags sat, but the IJN vessels historically had their flags sit on the stern. So now they are being moved to the Mast. I'd let this slide if WG were implementing Clan Flags at some point, but this is honestly weird.

 

Other than that, 0.6.2 seems like a good update. Looking forward to the new Soviet DDs and finally the unnerfed Kiev.

Odd. Maybe it's a design team thing?

National Flags were flown from the mast on sorties.

Maybe you're onto something with the clan flag theory....

IJN ships had their ensign on the stern when out at sea in peacetime and at port.

During/Imminent combat, they were raised on the mast.

True as that may be. The IJN ships will just look weird now without the stern flags.

 

Will really need something to sit on those staffs now.

If anything, I'd like to have oversized battle ensigns to fly.

Also Admiral and Commodore streamers would be nice .

I just want those flags to either be put back, or to be replaced with clan flags.
