172 BarnsBroadside Beta Testers 1,115 posts 10,065 battles Report post #1 Posted January 16, 2016 Just had a very weird thing happen. Apparently I hit the back of a torp and it got me. Anyone ever see this before? And I thought it was a clean dodge... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You should've been able to miss it with lots more room to spare! I sure could have, but I thought I was fine, and was on my way to re-engage. I've cut right behind torps plenty of times before without that happening. The 2nd pic clearly shows the torp past my bow already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Worst example of it I've experienced was one time when I was lagging so badly that my Minekaze got detonated by a torp that looked like it should have passed half a ship length in front of her from my end. Luckily haven't come close to seeing anything like it since upgrading my hardware...fingers crossed that I never will again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just burned me up though considering, as someone pointed out, I could have easily given it a wide berth. I can't attach a replay file to a post, and I'm not going to bother with youtube, but if you saw the replay, I had basically already dodged and made a conscience decision to cut behind them to get back on the attack. The warning beeping actually stopped a second or two before it got me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
