Do ARP ship titles show in game outside of Yokosuka port

I'm wondering if a player has not selected the Yokosuka port, will they still see ARP in the titles of the respective ARP ships?

 

I 'understand' the reasoning for the skins not being visible, but are the names?

 

If not, i'm considering a suggestion topic for it - any input to potential pros/cons?

 

Trade winds to you! o7

Nope, they just show up as Kongo or Myoko

Thanks Zampy - that's kind of a bummer imo. :(  

 

No, this is how it should be.  Most want no part of this anime crap in a warship game.  This is the step that makes it opt in.

You will see the event ships only if you have the port on, otherwise they show up as their normal variants on the battlefield should you see someone else captaining them.

A person will not see anything different about your ARP ships unless they have the Yokosuka port selected. This is to allow people who do not wish their experience to be "tainted" with East German nightclubs or Barbie's First Warship to maintain the atmosphere of a somewhat classic naval game. 

 

Does anyone know if the ARPs have camo (like the -4% to shell accuracy)? Or are they treated as camoless? 

 

To you, it will be your ARP Myoko. To everyone else, it will simply be a butt nekkid Myoko.

AFAIK the camo they come with is purely for aesthetics.

Now seeing ARP it strictly related to the anime only in this context and nothing else World War related I see your point.  Funny how 3 letters alone would put people off but times they are a changin'.

If someone has the Yokosuka (funny name...the devs being Russian and all...guess they don't like Ms. Ono either) Port up, will they see other players with anime skins on their ships?
 

(Sorry if a stupid question, just something I've been wondering.  I don't have either of the anime ships, but if I was into that, I think it would be nice to see the other people with the skins or whatever.)

Yes, that is the way to 'Opt in' to seeing the skins/ships in game.

In addition to what others have said.  You cannot use the ARP ships unless the Yokosuka port is selected.

They will not show up in any other port. They will no be playable in any form without the Yokosuka port. They will not show up in any port as a regular Kongo or Myoko.

If you want ARP ships but dislike Yokosuka's port design, check the link in my sig.

 

I field my ARP ships from New York Harbor.

Ok thanks. So in this one small regard, the IJN versions are better.  I was gonna dump the IJN versions...maybe i still will, but the 4% will always be in my mind if i get hit...lol

I drove my Kongo without camo anyway because IJN camo is a hideous mix of green colors and I hate it-- and I have a 60% winrate in it without camo.

 

ARP Kongo is only behind stat-wise because her captain isn't as well trained.

What about Kirishima, Haruna? Will they have their correct names displayed to people not using the yokosuka port? Or what if Maya gets added later? She has no in game equivalent atm.

We don't know, as they haven't done this yet.

 

Also Maya is a Takao class. We have Atago in the game already-- Takao class.
