3 YEARS I WAITED FOR THIS - War Thunder

[@DOLLARplays]

I wanted to get back in every 3-4days upload schedule, but this video took me a looong time to edit😅. I know not everyone likes naval, but it's been a while since we had any action in the water. Sill I hope you guys enjoyed it😉 French navy is another tho of my bucket list. Now I'm only waiting for latest battleships like Yamato, naval gamemodes (BIG)improvements, ground EC or real combined battles gamemode with air/ground/sea all fighting for objective. What are you guys waiting?

Fun fact on the Émile Bertin French Cruiser, it was in 1933 the fastest cruiser of the world, and also the ship has been named in the memory of Louis Émile Bertin, one of the most brilliant naval engineer of his time and also the man who modernized the Japanese fleet during Meiji Era, funny occasion to remind that France participates at the modernization/creation of the Imperial Japan Navy (and also that Japan and France had really good relations at the end of the 19th century, France composed Battotai for the Japanese army and Japanese officials sometimes wore French style bicorne).

I just saw this video and to answer to your question, the Duguay-Trouin was a ship class but also the first this of this last one. So, the premium ship is the ship itself and the Primauguet (the second Duguay-Trouin of the tree) the last ship of this class. They were similar, with just different planes and torpedo launchers differently organized.

For anyone: you can tell your non-main caliber guns what to do with (x+#), which makes hitting close, little boats easier. Also, AAA works better when its not set to also look for boats, BUT WONT shoot one if theyre set to only find planes. This works vice versa also. Press E for efficiency.

YES finally a navy video, I dont know like them if i dont play navy but DOLLAR have something that make unique the videos.

[@babalonkie]

French Navy should be comparable to UK with the exception of lighter AA on the majority of vessels (UK invested in AA over secondary guns during and upto WW2) as the two Navy's did friendly competition throughout the early 20th Century. French Navy was so competent that the Allies declared that all potential enemy controlled vessels were to be sunk ASAP. So unless Gaijin have did a dirty (Quite likely)... France should at least play similar to Britain... Jack of all trades, master of none.

[@DOLLARplays]

Well UK was here since the beginning of naval. Much more development time, while France is new. So don't expect them to be on par with UK. They'll fill the tree over time Honestly I'm happy with what we got, and I have a lot to look forward in the future

[@babalonkie]

@@DOLLARplays Oh yeah the tree will fill out. France should have a good Navy when full. I just hope they find a way of adding submarines from early to late and fix the grinds. If they do that... DD's have a purpose, aircraft can recon and depth bomb, more mine gameplay... atm the naval side consists too much of point and click or just botting.

[@KuronaOtoko]

For the armor in the back of the turret it's because every ammo climb up there so it needs to be rly protected
