Loading...Friendly fire is being removed from World of Warships. I am on the fence about this one. I see a lot of good coming from it, but also the possibility of it being abused. Time will tell, but it will be nice not eating friendly torps in WoWS. I want to hear your opinions on this one.

The big question is….Can we still try and bait CV’s into torping themselves. Asking for a friend lul
Those are so satisfying to do.
had plenty of cv players over the years that have decided they lost the match right at the start and killed themselves so hope they are blocking that
Wonder if this change is being made to accommodate the Kitikami???
could be
That was my first thought, too.
almost certainly
One thing I would like to see is consequences being reported. AFK, misbehavior in chat etc.
AFK? yeah, nah. plenty of reasons why a player can appear AFK when its beyond their control.
Early on, I once racked up a 20 co-op only penalty because I wasn’t loading into the match. Many hours of resetting router and other internet checks, I found out I had to run the fix game command from the launcher to solve the problem.
Having said that the game should know if all the players are actually loaded into a match or have their internet drop out.
@joseph pallette
Have you ever reported someone (for what ever reason)?
You said it yourself. “Kitakaze”. I smell plans for an old model to be re-released. Milking time for the cash cows. Hold on to your wallets men!
This is probably made exclusively for kitakami.
i like the way it is now. you have to make good decisions to win not just fire at anytime.
Maybe they make this change just to add Kitakami into the game XD
Betcha it’s mostly about Kita coming back..
yay, time DIV up with 3 of them and flood the area with Torps and watch all the lucky Fisherman catch all the fish
@Ainz Ooal Gown what is Kita?
@JackG79 Kitakami with 40 torps. aka torpedus
This is the same mechanic that was introduced into World of Tanks sometime ago, so I’m surprised this wasn’t done a long time ago!
I guess WG still needs to dumb down WOWS in the hope they keep their player base? I don`t think this change is necessary, friendly fire ads caution to the actions you make and therefore add depth to the game. Of course you always have the guy who isn`t that smart and hitting friendlies, but the karma system deals with that as well. I`ll definitely miss it if it goes away…
I think this tells us who wargaming’s target audience is. It’s definitely NOT the “thinking man’s game” anymore
I agree, knowing when to not fire torps is as important as knowing when to fire them.
WHen they start making the game “easier” for “everyone” they are selling out
@Dillard Ringold Pretty much selling out.
These rules are already in effect during Scenario operations. So on the balance I think it’s a good think.
Another issue for torps is friendlies don’t have an incentive to dodge danger close torps or just be an jerk and eat them deliberately.
The way I understood it, friendly torps would still penalize the firing ship the same way shooting friendlies with guns would.
This just turns off damage to friendlies. Still can get bans, go pink, get XP/credit penalties and have reflected damage. Strictly positive.
I hope that WG means with this ‘Friendly fire removing’ they only remove the part where you actually receive damage. The damage is the worst part. I still hope that you see those messages in chat saying: “Friendly fire warning to [player name] for causing damage to [player name].”
With friendly fire gone, does this mean less rage among teammates for getting them pinky? Lol
I am now going to feel free to shoot my torps at an enemy BB who one of our friendly BB’s is trying to ram
Just noticed, you didn’t do a video on the Kong and Godzilla event. Have you been away?
