It would've taken the developer literally 1 hour to create the Johnston. Take a Fletcher template and values (yes Fletcher template would exist: there are 5 of them in the game already). { Parameter:shell_type, Value: "SAP", Damage:"1833", Reload: 4 } {Consumable: (damage_con(), smoke(), reload_booster(duration, reload,%boost ) } That's literally it. Dev gets paid $55 per hour and evens out even if 1 person buys the ship lol.

[@Dbars19]

another reason not to buy it

[@geraldleuven169]

That logic applies to a lot of ships. Johnston has still a unique play style.

[@cliffrawson213]

It was the Captain and crew that deserves the praise, not over-hyping a ship that was one of many that preformed outstanding during the war, for instance read about the USS Franklin and what it survived, and stayed afloat. Bottom line it's the men, not the ship that counts.

[@MidnightRoselle222]

True, but it's the name of the ship that will forever be associated with those men's sacrifices and achievements. She went down with all hands and her story, as well as the story of her valiant crew, ended that day. Rather than trying to remember every crew members name for all the years to come, it's easier to keep the memory alive by remembering just one name to cover the story. The USS Johnston. Its kinda like how we we don't name every soldier who participated in a battle, or in a war, but rather name the war or battlefield. It allows the story to be remembered much easier for much longer.

[@sirboomsalot4902]

When people refer to how great a ship was, they are referring to the crew.

[@OverLordBou]

yep yep

[@robdog1245]

Johnston and Sammy B are probably the 2 most legendary US ships of WWII. Johnston was reported as a ‘heavy cruiser’ by the Japanese during the Taffy 3 engagement. Thats saying something for a little DD.

[@tramapolean]

Great review and I like the two battle format, thank you!

[@TheJoe7Six]

Some other facts about this ship, it's one of the deepest shipwrecks discovered and her captain who was of native American descent was awarded the Medal of Honor for obviously going above and beyond the call of duty. And allegedly one of the Japanese captains was seen saluting the Johnston as she sank.

[@ahtong1014]

A legendary destroyer. The ship is not legendary but what made her a legendary was her Captain and her crews. Those men had ball made of steel.

[@Crosshair84]

Don't forget how the wreck looks so perfectly frozen in time. All the guns are trained to starboard on the intact forward section, elevated as if ready to fire another salvo. Just as accounts from the battle say.

[@ahtong1014]

@@Crosshair84 it says her gun still pointing to enemies even she went down so deep in the sea. A fighting spirit Lady!

[@Diisonbravo]

TWO REPLAYS PLEASE

[@Potato_Factory_]

good vid bou, I like how you covered the statistics of the ship and someone thats new to the game this video will answer any concern they have. Good stuff brother

[@angrybeargaming7756]

Would be nice if new players to the game weren't able to buy their way to t9 right off the bat it's bad for the game play at high tier

[@r0b3rt..]

​@angrybeargaming7756 It's not a bad idea for new players to inform themselves of new ships and their gimmicks, T7 are easy reach for new players and so are the T9 uptiers

[@angrybeargaming7756]

@@r0b3rt.. nope I get that part just not being able to buy your way to t9 without having played a single match that's the dumb part

[@OverLordBou]

Glad I could help

[@stevenwiederholt7000]

WG is going to make A Lot Of Money selling his ship!

[@deinim5854]

would had made more if they haven't driven away players with the direction of development they took...

[@LoanwordEggcorn]

Thanks Bou. Please include the ships modules in the builds (in general) too.

[@OverLordBou]

@@LoanwordEggcorn it does the build shows the modules and the captain skills just for a very short time so just pause it at that moment

[@LoanwordEggcorn]

@@OverLordBou Thanks. I saw the captain skills, but not the modules. I see the modules appear after the skills now. 0:25

[@billwalker9509]

2, please. Also, I enjoy your ship reviews so much more than SLM.

[@seasnutz9741]

Great video, thank you!

[@quark5617]

I am not a dd player but I have question Mr bou. I think I heard that Rhode Island is can be purchased when Johnston is released. Can u tell me how to buy if it is not NDA? Anyway thx for video. Keep up your great works :)

[@thatinternetguyj5222]

Yeah, i was wondering too!

[@solidtoto]

Pretty sure it's gonna be dubloons

[@OverLordBou]

Good question! you can buy it through the admiral pack and can get it from container gambling

[@user-cb8mp4nf4z]

i want the ship but that admiral bundle is a disgusting money grab :(

[@holysmoke7887]

dont buy the bundle just buy the ship by itself.

[@user-cb8mp4nf4z]

@@holysmoke7887 all i see is the bundle

[@frankvc5899]

Any news on Victoria?

[@OverLordBou]

no

[@marklupus]

Was wondering how long it would take to feature probably the United States Navy's most famous fighting ship.

[@angrybeargaming7756]

8 years is the answer

[@marklupus]

@@angrybeargaming7756 Thanks Mister Wizard.

[@dudeonyoutube]

Big E is far more famous.

[@angrybeargaming7756]

@@dudeonyoutube only if you don't know WW2 history that well lol

[@robdog1245]

@@dudeonyoutubenah. Enterprise was only famous because of her name. Johnston and Sammy B were famous because of what they actually did and went up against.

[@solidtoto]

Ship is meh, everyone on the forums told them the burst fire wasn't a good idea, but WG did a WG and said "we know better".

[@Bender76048k]

WoWs balanced. 2 replays

[@AiDecc]

I can barely hear you in between these painfuly loud gunshots.

[@OverLordBou]

i fixed it in the upcoming vids! thanks for letting me know!

[@sycology2486]

Gering is even more obsolete

[@z6a99c]

Wows must be dying

[@deinim5854]

Game balance is not a primary objective in WG products, the business part of things then "balance" their development and it's across all of their projects WoWs or WoT no different...

[@z6a99c]

@deinim5854 it's sad for companies who make millions to billions to stop carrying for their player base and customers. That's the main reason why I stopped playing.

[@jamiewilson4605]

another flint/atlanta? really? hard pass
