World of Warships - Sub torps defy logic

This is an upload specifically for Victor and anyone else who knows about subs to help me understand these torps from the enemy sub.
Specifically how the sub on my left and moving left hit me with torps from the right and also the torps that hit the Des Moines at the end when the sub was not even close to where the torps came from.
Not claiming cheating just trying to understand how the ship and it's torps work so any explanation is most welcome.

The torpedoes on the Des Moines were normal. The submarine opened up until it was between the two islands and was able to launch them without difficulty.

wow ok. Watching it again they must have a stupid turn rate. So when he pings at 17:07 how are the torps going in a straight line from where they first get spotted? That doesn't seem possible at all. I would at least expect them to be turning in because for the sub to move from the ping location to where the torps are spotted he would have to be turning or is the shooting angle also huge (at lower levels it is just front and back 45' or 60' angles). The designers of this game must take some serious drugs lol

@@Grumpy_Hobbit I think the submarine is simply moving towards the Des Moines to avoid the islands. What you say about the torpedoes is that there are two factors that create confusion. The first is the detection distance of the torpedoes and the second is that if you launch the torpedoes at depth, they do not rise to the surface until you make the ping.

@@Victor-si7wt I simply cannot work out the direction and angles the torps are approaching from when they are spotted and the position of the sub. I could understand if the torps were turning left but they are just moving forward in a straight line and that seems impossible from where the sub as to be in relation to his position from the last 2 pings...guess until I get one and can test it I will not understand it. I have a physical resistance to illogical stuff and can't help how my brain works lol

Hi Grumpy, from what I've seen the submarine fired the torpedoes to your right and he was going to your left. That's why when he pinged you the direction of the torpedoes seemed strange. I haven't seen anything abnormal in that situation. I think he launched the torpedoes with plenty of time until the ping. He thinks that his torpedoes are 14km away and he has time to distance himself from their trajectory. That's my opinion, I hope I've helped you. 👍

[@Grumpy_Hobbit]

That was my thought but I didn't realise the torps could turn that much so that is crazy. I only have a tier 6 and so guess it is just lack of knowledge about just how dumb and ill designed homing torps are. Can you explain the torps hitting the Des Moines though as that doesn't make any sense at all even with what you said about the torps that hit me...Or do they literally turn 90' on a dime?

[@Victor-si7wt]

@@Grumpy_Hobbit No, they don't turn that much. When torpedoes go in a direction too far from the ship, they have a hard time turning and eventually get lost.

@@Victor-si7wt OK so how does the sub move from the first ping, in a diagonal towards the Des Moines, and then is able to pull away and turn again in time to get the front facing torps away from the position they come from? There doesn't seem to be enough time to move, turn and shoot for the torps to be fired without turning. As per my comments about guess I will have to wait till I get one to understand the mechanics for tier x subs.

Patience 😁

Yes master.

Sound?

[@Grumpy_Hobbit]

This was an upload mainly for others in my clan to comment on. There is sound but just the game sound effects and no commentary. I actually uploaded 2 video's on this day so apologies for any confusion.
