Attention KZbinr! There is a public group that will fight for right of content creators, like yourself, against current youtube policies in court of Germany. They have listed simple request for transparent policies (and many other things) in the video below my comment. In addition, group has joined forces with biggest trade union in the world: IGM, and prepared to take case against youtube with help of their expirienced lawyers. Last but not least, they are planning to prove in court, that your work on youtube as content creator is not a part-time self-employment, but an Employer - Employee relation, where KZbin is an Employer and threfore obliged to pay you wage, social insurance and other things. Please, take 15 minutes of your time and watch the video made by Joerg Sprave, (leader of KZbinrs union). Thank you. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYu9Zn6lqs-SnrM

[@Cris-xy2gi]

Thank god they sent you back to port. I hate it when you’re on 37% health, only have 2 or 3 weapons left, and they want you to go sink an assault fleet...

[@galliman123]

If you ever want to 100% want the order to make it back to port just fire off all your torpedoes into the abyss

[@gunslingerluckytankijunky]

Some poor neutral ship far away minding its own business gets domed by a US cruise missile.

[@fmerritt2001]

Tips for new players. When the “MF Comp” started inching up to 8 on the November and the towed array on the Moskva showed 7-8 around 6:50 they are about to detect you. I like to either maneuver away or launch two passive torpedoes at the sub contact so his return fire is inaccurate. On high difficulty it is nearly impossible to get to surface ships without running off the sub escort with a pair of accurate torpedoes forcing him to evade first. Happy sailing!

[@Leo3ABPgamingTV]

20:22 Kursk submarine comes to mind

[@viridisxiv766]

"tactical doughnut" haha please put that on a t-shirt!

[@林家崴]

agreed

[@Pyxis10]

A bot probably will. They look for comments like this.

[@theroyalaustralian]

I have got to buy myself this game

[@doktork3406]

the november knew where you were it was not "cheating" you did not pay attention to SNS COMP he had you positive on passive so he heard you and at least got a bearing on you check 8:18 for instance...he had you on the passive

[@BunkerFox]

Yeah, but this is Magz. *AI does something remotely clever or difficult* "What the Hell! They shouldn't have been able to do that! This game's either bugged of cheating because they should never have done that!"

[@AtR966]

I've just finished the 1968 campaing. To avoid 2 hour missions you need to launch 2 wire guided mk 37s at the priority targets first (because they are gonna run). If there are more, chose the faster ones. Once you sink them the escorts will come for you and you can take them out with mk 16 and mk37 combined and then chase the remaining priority target (if left).

[@ErdenizS]

Man you're gonna make me start a 68 campaign and ditch any productivity for anything IRL :)

[@skootmeister3994]

I had a bad feeling in my gut seeing the first torpedo you ran alongside of… and that second toro proved my fears correct. Today we learned don’t be an adrenaline junky.

[@MrDiredemon]

Also "TACTICAL DOUGHNUT" totally needs to make it into MILSPEAK ;)

[@spiritfoxmy6370]

Always love the ship discussions

[@knightmarex13]

Never a dull moment with the ole mk37's

[@petergunn7039]

I like to finish a mission (SP) bathing in the bubbles of one of the wrecks, if you listen carefully, as the bubbles burst against your hull, you can hear the screams of your enemy.

[@Szalami]

I bought CW and because of these videos I, a complete retard and noob who knows nothing about subs started a 1968 campaign. I am having tons of fun but because of the torpedoes, sometimes it really is just painful. But in the end, when you get to sink a capital ship, it's all that more rewarding. I also encountered this issue many times, where I launch a MK38 and the thing breaks wire and just goes ahead and detonates right into me. I honestly thought it's some sort of torpedo malfunction modeled into the game, a reliability issue with the MK38. Just like how every 2nd wire breaks regardless of what I seem to do.

[@garushnagoth]

Great as always. Love the submarine content

[@The_Jake2347]

Lol the Moskva ain't around in real life either anymore

[@LexieAssassin]

The only thing I can assume with that Mk 37 blowing up is that it must've hit the sub somehow b/c afaik in Cold Waters, if a weapon hits something it goes boom, activated or not.

[@Mr.Manta5988]

Remember in Hunt for Red October when Ramius destroyed a hostile torpedo by ramming it before it could go active? I wonder if this works here as well

[@andrewmandrona7891]

I gave up on the US 1968 campaign. the weapons were unbearable, but the Russian 1968 campaign is way more fun with wake-homing torpedoes and decently fast anti-sub weapons. Also, detecting torpedoes is certainly a problem with this game, as their noise levels rarely match what they are actually doing. However, it is worth noting that many submarines are equipped with rear-facing sonar, it's just much less sensitive for obvious reasons.

[@paulhesketh4289]

That looked painful to play!

[@L3v3LLIP]

kilo yards :,D mad lads

[@Kmicic023]

Finally!! :D

[@duggi4]

i honestly thought you would drive into the baffles of the November.fire off 4x mk16 at the surface combatents and then go from there

[@jbeckley6849]

Not being an armchair Admiral but maybe better to have gotten behind the fleet and November then launch in their screws. Great job though and keep up the '68 campaign!

[@HUNDLEYGUY95]

the Mark 37 torpedo in the 1968 has neither the speed nor range to run down anything but the slowest of targets. It had a max speed of only 26 knots with a maximum range of 23,000 yards.... at 17 knots.

[@martijn9568]

@@HUNDLEYGUY95 But Magz could have hust the other torpedoes when the rest of the fleet wasn't aware that Magz was around.

[@HUNDLEYGUY95]

@@martijn9568 The other torpedo's are unguided and as shown by how the November reacted when Magz did fire on him (by firing the return shot directly at Magz submarine instead of down the bearing of the torpedo) they knew he was there, they just hadn't reacted beforehand for some reason. So if he had tried to use the Mk16s they would have just missed because the entire fleet would have turned.

[@xcritic9671]

Would it have been possible for you to get in the Novembers baffles and stealth fire on him, or would it have been more effort than it was worth?

[@martijn9568]

And this is why I don't bother with torpedo bombers in War Thunder or Il-2 1946, torpedoes are so slow.

[@memadmax69]

I would’ve taken up position behind the convoy and started blasting away first and saved the November for last.

[@galliman123]

1968 mission your primary convoy attack weapon is unguided Mark 16 torpedoes

[@galliman123]

That Mk37...wtf happened there o_O

[@ywe3]

What? Its working as intended...look up uss scorpion

[@h.cedric8157]

is it me does this guy sounds somewhat like *James May?*

[@unoriginell6624]

you right

[@knightvisiongoggles7934]

Too bad the MK 16s aren't at least wire guided.

[@galliman123]

to successfully use them you need to fire 2-3 per target and basically cover a larger area

[@amnesiagrunt2356]

I don't understand my luck with this game, I'm going at 5knots at 600ft and I'm under the thermal layer and it's a stormy day and the fleet I'm approaching has a kirov carrier, and the moment I identify it, it's active ping sensor is at 23 which means that they know I'm there and I have 5-8 torpedos on me before I even got close to the enemy fleet and I'm dead.

[@fmerritt2001]

I’ve read that sov doctrine was using active sonar and loads of torpedoes in the water to make up for US Stealth and better passive sonar. In 1968 Cold Waters torpedo evasion is paramount. They shoot first, then you get a turn later after the convoy scatters.

[@MrDiredemon]

Lucky shot from the november , If I were the russian I'd have given you a full spread evenly based around both sides of the incoming shot ;)

[@Ushio01]

Russian ships are buffed beyond real world capabilities yet wipes out a quarter of Russia's nuclear attack fleet by mission 3.

[@SecretRaginMan]

The KZbin compression algorithm really hates Cold Waters, doesn't it?

[@MagzGTV]

Its because of all the blue on blue on blue I think, Cracks the shits because of it from time to time :(

[@Nikarus2370]

While I love the game, I really don't know why they haven't given the Mk16s a pattern running option.

[@kamata93]

Nika Rus the more annoying thing is that there is no new content.

[@galliman123]

@@kamata93 tbh the mod community should provide enough content for your enjoyment, i sunk 176 hours into the game worth every penny I paid

[@lycon7000]

Would it be realistic that escort ships abbandon their allies?

[@MagzGTV]

Depends on the ship, If you are at risk of losing a capital ship defending a landing craft then yes it is realistic. That said the other ships should have gone aggressive and started hunting if only to provide a screen for the Moskva as she opened a gap.

[@Luigi_Cadorna]

I think you damaged yourself due to your speed.
