Submarine I-56 - This Is Cursed Gameplay

One of my viewers redeemed a replay flex on my channel, it's a reward where I'll watch their replay or gameplay video. This is truly some cursed gameplay, imagine how delusional you have to be to think this makes WoWS a better game.

You're just like the employee who walks out and quits thinking It'll make a difference, and everybody'll think your a hero. Actually, it makes the game better when people with toxic attitudes.

@@donaldross8597No, it’s people like you who don’t care that are the problem. It’s people like that that allow them to get away with all this abuse and destruction, as well as actively ruin anyone else’s experience with the toxic crap, causing the player numbers to be driven lower and lower all the time, until eventually the only ones left are the douchebags who don’t care. They may say “oh the game is better now because nobody’s complaining anymore” when in reality they’ve essentially killed the game, as it’s only running on fumes from that point on at best. That’s why they’ve added features such as instantly going into a new game when you die without waiting for your ship to come back. They’re trying to hide the garbage queue times that are becoming more and more common and worse and worse as time goes. You guys can only be so careless and in denial for so long, because people are wising up to it and have wised up to it. Nobody can objectively make the argument that the game is good and in a healthy place anymore. And if people don’t care and just say “spank me more daddy” then I guess you’ll get what you want, but it’s at such a detrimental cost that’s rearing its ugly head more and more as the days, weeks, and months go by. Yes you’ll be rid of all the complainers that make a fuss because they actually care, but the game will be a deathly husk with much lower numbers playing, and eventually won’t be able to sustain itself anymore no matter how much of their life savings the few whales spend on it. It will inevitably die. And the argument you guys make of “oh all games grow and die eventually, because all players come and go eventually” is completely self destructive and makes no sense. The good and worthy games are timeless and are revisited and staying around even beyond their time, because they’re so good and enjoyable that even as older plays inevitably leave, new players will always replace them. But that’s not what’s happening with warships. The old are leaving, and the new are not sufficiently replacing them. And fewer and fewer are bothering to stick around if they even come to try it out at all. Why? Because of all this bull crap and careless jerks who don’t care allowing it and even encouraging it to be this way, as a result, choking the game to death and robbing it of a long term future. Well congrats. Keep it up. As long as the game keeps on this path, you will inevitably get what you want, but that will also means, the game will be essentially be either so small and obscure and running on fumes at best or dead and shut down because it’s no longer worth running. Bet y’all will be so happy and proud when those days arrive eventually.

i cant wait to see fun and engaging gameplay
I have hated every single one of my 20 games in this ship. When you're sucessful, it doesn't feel rewarding. You're carried by the insane stats of the ship. You're not having fun, the reds are not having fun, neither are your teamates as they have to deal with a submarine because of you. When you're failing, it's super frustrating. With a giant surface detactibility and "only" 2 minutes of dive capacity, it can sometimes be tough to play around ships. Plus you don't have submarine surveillance, so not only can't you counter enemy subs, they can counter you easily. So you're around enemy ships trying to sink them, when suddenly an enemy sub detects you with his consumable. You either stay underwater, detected by the sub, being pinged and dodging torpedoes from a submarine that is totally undetectable (you don't even know where the pings are coming from, as it's super hard to track while underwater) and getting raped by ASW, or you surface to counter the submarine surveillance only to get surface detected and suffer the same thing plus enemy guns. So not only success isn't rewarding, as it comes from your ship being broken, but you suffer even more from enemy submarines. Horrible design through and through. It's high-risk high-reward, but built entirely on utter BS.

I found taking superintendent helps. Can use 2 battery consumables in 1 dive, extending dive time by a minute. It's quick recharging too. Use islands to get closer and ambush and try to avoid the enemy sub at all costs. You might have more fun/success that way. The only issue I have with it is the lack of sub surveillance. It needs the other nerds due to the insane damage potential.
Been playing since 2015 and the fact that most players in the server I'm playing in supports this abomination and 9 out of 10 matches are filled with subs are just sickening, I realized I gotta stop playing.

There is one other thing those sub gameplays can be a problem with. They could just get close and not get spotted while keeping the enemy spotted. If the team is able to use their brains half of the time, then it can be some good damage from that kind of spotting. And the spotted ships cant really counter it like against a plane or a DD

To be fair this is the perfect situation for I-56... only two ships bothered trying to depth charge, enemy flank was left completely open so you got through, ships sailing in a straight line, no enemy subs... I-56 is a hit or miss, either the enemy lets you do this or you get hunted down and dropped by a million depth charge planes.

I miss this game, have not played it in over a year now. Being a battleship only player, it's just no longer fun dealing with subs now.
I'm surprised no one sent out depth charge planes at this thing the instant it showed up.
Subs could easily be balanced by giving DDs an additional consumable. For example something like sonar. You target an area around your ship and you make a submarine visible in that area. The range of the detection depends on the speed of the submarine. Also submarine torpedoes should do way less damage and/or the reload needs to be much higher.

You should take a look at the other subs. The I-56 is the odd ball and this kind of game doesn't happen often. To be truthful, the other players in this match were kind of potatoes and this is not indicative of normal games in subs.
Ship 2 and ship 2 are both Asw ships approx 6 or 7km range, not 1 asw plane sent when spotted arleast twice if not 3 times together with approx 2 km distance between each other, not to mention that they continued in the same line and path without diverting or changing, jinking or anything. This is also before 13.2 and 13.3 which saw massive nerfs to subs, now any torp under requires 3km of travel or only 10% damage output, also spotting torps has been increased by 1 or 2kms plus asw planes are now 2 times as quick getting to sub plus depth charge damage and splash radius increased plus now many ships have sub surveillance which specifically detects subs underwater to a range of 7 or 9km lasting 30 seconds

Flamu the I56 is supposed to be a "Cruiser" sub, or at least what WG is going to use a a format for Cruiser subs. What makes a cruiser sub different from the Subs we have now? Well they have very little Air Supply, But they have Player controlled deck guns. In this case its got 2 deck guns, one on each side of the conning tower. As for I56s torpedo's, the ALT torps (like every Premium sub) are the LONG RANGE torps, but the Acoustic torps are short ranged (like 6kms or maybe less). Now take a moment to remember the French SURCOCH Sub with a duel 203mm Gun turret exists.

but how many domage can you do with a destroyer canon in 30 sec? if you pick a tier 8 of course
I bet a 30 second reload isn't that far off reality. The torp's were stored in the rooms with the torpedo tubes in a space optimized for reloading the primary armament. They didn't have to be hoisted from below deck storage and loaded into elevated lauchers like they did on surface ships.
I had a terrible experience playing against this monstrosity divisioned up with a Pobeda CV yesterday in ranked.

I had only used one fast repair party and still had all my heals but just couldn’t dodge the combination. Dodged the sub’s torps only to run into the CVs.

What a fun experience
I remember arguing with one guy who said you play against subs the same way you play against a torp DD like Shima. His main argument was that they are okay because if you can't see a sub, it can't see you (which isn't even true because of hydrophone), and he just couldn't understand that in that exchange the sub has full initiative to choose when he is seen and when not and therefore a major advantage. He also for example argued that hydro is a good counter to subs when you play a cruiser because if a periscope depth sub spots you, you can always spot them back with hydro as hydros have bigger range than periscope spotting for most cruisers. There is exactly one such cruiser, which is Hipper, and it doesn't even have plane ASW. He also claimed that most of the time he manages to find and sink the sub with ASW when playing a DD, and that it's a skill issue that most people can't. All while the 40% WR was shining through all of his comments.

Well your friend it HALF correct on those accounts. When it comes to DD vs Sub play, it really is "Skill issue" cus DD players will Charge straight at a submarine like a Dumbass then unsupriseingly the sub just points its torp tubes at the DD and says "dodge this". US Subs in particular thanks to having several tubes in Front and Back can deal with DDs chasing them if they really need to. (you still have to hit them of course, which isn't always easy) The Hydrophone only works when fully submerged (IE Max depth), it shows you a "Shadow" of where the enemy was when the last plus hit it, and the plus has a interval of about 5 seconds. Its not like Surface ship Hydro or Radar, it can help you keep track of enemies but it won't Hard spot them for you. Hydro is TECHNICLY a counter to subs, the problem is WG didn't think vs hard. They Removed "operating depth" before release, so now over half a Subs Dive bar is "max depth" (you have Surface, Periscope, max depth now) And Hydro only spots subs from 2kms at "max depth". If they are Surfaced or at Periscope depth Hydro will give a BIT extra spotting range, but like you said we are talking GERMAN HYDRO SERACH, it wont help very much. (at least it will spot the torpedos for you, thats something at least) Radar useless since it can't spot a subs periscope anymore, only works when they are fully surfaced.

@@jaywerner8415 I think you didn't quite understand the DD hunting a sub argument, in his opinion it's no issue for DD to find a sub in the first place. As for charging at the sub, yeah that is stupid, but you do need to get close to them somehow, and when you have no idea of their exact location, you don't really know if you are charging right at them or approaching diagonally. At some point they surface oriented the right way thanks to the knowledge provided by their hydrophone, and load their torps at you. Hydro DD's do have a big advantage, but even they can't do much about this because they can only find the sub at 2 km and have to guess just like everyone else until the range is optimal for the sub to try to shotgun you. And the point is that the DD, which is supposed to be a sub counter, is at inherent disadvantage here. First, the DD needs to guess which way the sub possibly went. Then, it's on the DD to play it perfectly if they want to survive it while the sub really just needs to throw shit at them if they even manage to go the right way, and sometimes the sub ends up getting the DD anyway because maneuverability still has its limits on DD's as well. As for the hydro argument, the point was not if it's a counter or not, the point was that he was just straight up inventing his own facts because they fit his agenda.

The ping is so obvious the sub may as well give away his location in ALL chat. That is something i figured out REAL quick with Submarines. The Ping is TRAP. Yeah sure, you can use homing torpedos, but why bother when you can just aim them manually and thus MAINTAIN your stealth. But yeah, that is the most annoying thing with subs, they are literally Invisible till they PING. Personally i wish even at depth they still got picked up by Hydro just like ships. If only WG implemented some "simulation" of Cavitation. IE you have to go DEAD SLOW at depth to maintain your stealth, otherwise you do not gain the benefits of steath cus of all the bubbles your kicking out off the prop.

I was forced to play Subs in order to unlock Somme during the Battle of the Somme event, because I got so many duplicates I was down to the last free crate available. In doing so, I focused on learning everything about them I could, in order to be able to counter them more effectively. In summary, they are COMPLETELY busted. I hit purple stats on them basically without effort. So this replay is just a bad sub player who got very, very lucky. They made constant mistakes throughout the match. And yet see how much damage it did despite the player being garbage tier. Mistakes include: Near zero situational awareness, they constantly got detected purely out of their own failures to react properly (In the case of a sub, literally just clicking the 'C' key once or twice). In subs, you never want to get actually detected. It alerts the people with low situational awareness that you are there, and also allows the enemy to hit you with accurate ASW strikes. Normally if you're just pinging, ASW will usually miss due to the white ping effect on the surface not being an accurate representation of where the sub is, and due to the sub maneuvering. I almost never get hit by random ASW in the German subs despite constantly pinging. Despite I-56 not relying on pings, allowing it to be STUPIDLY stealthy, this idiot just kept driving into 7.1km without going periscope. Also, extremely poor battery management. Subs are all about knowing when to be at what depth. Most of the time, you should be at the surface. You go periscope to avoid detection and radar (And take a skill that lets you know when enemy radar is active above you so you know when it's safe to surface), and you crash dive to avoid prox detection and hydro. This joker just would sit needlessly at periscope wasting battery. Bad torpedo play. Biggest example is the Flint. They swapped to lower damage torps, guided torpedoes, then pinged too late for the torps to use homing. So all they did was fail the shotgun and then sailed UNDER a depth-charging ship. If the Flint had done better with the charges, they might have died. Either way, they too needless damage AND failed to kill the target, just because they made two really easy to correct mistakes under panic. TLDR: Bad player was handheld to a 270k damage PR.
I have never seen 4 dev strikes done.
I have never realised it has that much HP
I feel unclean after watching this obscenity.
Honestly they should give them the seaplane refit they had historically. I met a Vet who worked as a tugboat deckhand in pearl Harbor he had the honor of towing this type of ship to be scuttled so we didnt have to give it to the Soviets. However it had a hanger not a gun. Make the I-56 a regular torp reload, give it more underwater time. take off the gun and give it a seaplane it can launch and then submerge.
270k dmg … against tier 8 and 7s no less …

Let the I-56 get uptiered, it's toast. I play 20-30 games a day at T10 and have never seen an I-56 in a match be successful.
damn, should've traded a ship for that
the dented developers who designed SS this way should have their entire family be sent to gulag. holy shit.
28 knots at periscope depth. That would rip them off
Thanks for this exploration of the Dark Side of the Farce. Classic WG potato balance. The few, the proud, the competent are balanced by the potatoes. The counter when the competent ones show up? As stated, sail away. A 40-knot ship is a plus.
Just another beautiful day in the neighborhood, this is fine
If I only did know back in the day of Silent Hunter, that it was this easy!
esports ready XD
I jumped on to play wows after not playing for 6 months cuz I felt up to it and was checking out things. Teams were awful... and I dealt with this very sub in Shikishima. Guy shotgunned a friendly cruiser 3 minutes into the game, and then harassed me for the next two. Yes I died and was lucky enough to be able to trade since he ran out of battery and surfaced 3km away from me :) I killed him with Main Battery after hitting multiple depth charges on him. Had to guess where he was, several direct hits to since of course the constant stream of torpedoes gave me a general idea and he already shotgunned my teammate in a cruiser that was 4km away from me. But still no spotting on him till his battery ran out. Fun game dude. Guy had the audacity to brag in chat about what he did. And of course this dogshit game rewarded this dogshit braindead loser for his dogshit braindead gameplay. He was first in his team after only playing for 5 minutes and doing all that shit to me and my teammate. I have not played the game since and I still have 0 interest in touching it. I loved this game and it's just gone straight to hell.
It s funny because subs typically wouldn't carry that much torps on board, they were unable to do it

I recently had a discussion with someone on Reddit that was saying that CVs and Subs are balanced and that torpedo boats were the problem because there is no way to counter them. After a while i just gave up because he was either trolling or so stupid that you can't convince him otherwise.

Go play subs and then come back and tell me how easy they are. This match the other team was horrible, it was a T8 match, the CV never dropped a plane over him. This SINGLE LUCKY GAME is not the norm for subs.
TY Flamu 🙏🙏
cant wait for I400 SSV
I vowed that I would stop playing this game if subs were introduced with no ability to opt-out from facing them. So far it's been an easy vow to keep. Wargaming are so pig headed for keeping subs in this game. They don't deserve to have any sort of player base at all.

If the Rogues had permanent stealth and immunity against all stealth piercing skills, yep. Or if the wizards were immune to damage. Don't compare WGs shitty balance to any real MMOs, WGs subs and CVs are tank-wizard-rogues. When even they have admitted the classes have issues, why would you try to defend em?

@@Flamuu magic classes like wizards often have situationally powerful taking abilities, stealth classes often have something similar, people nowadays just aren't used to this kind of stuff because in order to monetize the whales dev's remove it from the gameplay. In the case of this game they just make whatever the new things are overpowered until the next new thing comes out. People bitched about destroyers before carriers and subs came out. I remember having a 3-hour debate with somebody who was apoplectic about the fact that battleships would have instantly destroyed destroyers before they could even get within range of them. Competitive players have always always been allergic to variety. This game is no exception to that even before wargaming was an existence. People made a lot of the same arguments for vehicles and shooters and you could probably find one to one forum post from Old Navy Field forums of the same exact arguments as world of warships
Let's be real here. A ship isn't broken if a really good player can abuse it. That means nothing. It's broken if the average player can abuse it.
Fine, Ill get out my I56 again..
How do these sub replay guys keep finding ships that don't drop ASW and sail in straight lines? I tried them out and it seemed if I got spotted every red ship in range (and some not) was trying to drop me...
I’m waiting for WeeGee to add USS Nautilus! Hey, it was commissioned before HMS Tiger (1959 version)! Unlimited endurance, baby!

the funniest part is that normal submarines from the tech tree are aweful, while the premiums are insane, all because of the torpedo spread nerf that only the tech tree submarines got

You say that. The spread is not a issue at all. Yeah your torps will go SLIGHTLY to the left or right of where your aiming but they will hit regardless most of the time.
They are good additions to the game because it is proof that WG doesn't give a piss about player experience. When you see this, all you have to do is uninstall and never look back.
I was so done with this game BEFORE subs were added, now I just don`t even bother playing the game. This is super sad because I used to love the game.
4 devastating strikes all against BBs! Wtf
Hey Flamu, could you suggest best dd streamers or do more dd tip stuff again?
Subs are a WoWs regulatory mechanism to nerf player numbers.
Flamu, bro pls where is the Lauria video, I want it, I need it.
Tbh I-56 is the one sub I don't have an issue with. To pull off shotguns like he does at 4:50 you actually have to have a fair bit of map awareness due to the horrendous concealment and low dive time. You need to be aware of enemy DD, radar, and sub positions because of you get caught you can get fucked up really quick. The ship relies heavily on braindead people not knowing how to dodge non-homing torps. You'll also note that both times he was spotted nobody on the enemy team even attempts any sort of ASW despite all of them having the airstrike. They just ignore him.

same, I'm a DD main and played some subs for testing. Got this I-56 sub from a crate and think it's not really good. Had a few great rounds but most very poor ones, where you're utterly useless. USA subs are far better imo. 7 km concealment sucks, ok then go submerged you'd think? nah.... slow as a limp turtle 12 to 15 knots or so, only 2,5 min max divetime with the consumable active (which is nothing if it takes 1 hour to get somewhere), after that the next consumable is only ready 2 min later or so, huge turning circle, only has front torp tubes, torps are seen soon because japanese ones... I have much better results in the Salmon with using manual torps only as well. Because I-56 is so slow underwater the low dive time is extra horrible because once you get close to the enemy you can almost never reach a safe spot anymore and then run out of air and die because of forced surfacing. Going backwards against pushing enemy, they are faster, going away under water from them? they are faster and you can't even launch torps, since no AFT tubes. So I play almost on surface only with nose towards enemy and spam torps from range like japanese DDs, but they have 6 km concealment or even less, are agile and can launch torps from 2 sides. So you can either spam torps from long range from the surface or yolo submerged and shotgun 1 enemy. First method is quite silly imo because why play a sub when only playing from surface? And also if you yolo and miss the torps or there's another enemy you're dead. With other subs you could launch 2nd wave of torps while retreating with AFT tubes and has almost 2x more speed under water, and better concealment too.

Subs are cancer. "if theres a sub in the game you cant play the game" is 100% spot on.
then when SS died, they said, " i got two depth charge and i died. balanced"
This is the reason why I stopped playing ut was ridiculous and so much people claim it s ok and I never understood why they say so
