Capsizing Ships and Total Annihilation?

[poprox101]

Just a question: Is it possible to completely capsize a ship or make it look utterly destroyed? If so, I would like to know.;) I've been trying to capsize a ship little success. I think it would be cool to see a picture of one.

[VTROOPER]

in a challeng misson my CA capsized

[poprox101]

Fully or just halfway? If you can, can you tell me how it capsized?

[VTROOPER]

it was random ok but all it did was flip over under water and start to go under agen

[M0n3y]

i had something strange on Islands of Solomon...

i sunk the AK and when it was sunk...it jumped about 10metres in the sky upside down(still flipping) and then sank again :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :confused: :confused: :confused:

[watty14]

that happend to me once aswell, i sunk the troop ship and it rolled over but then it went crazy, it liked jumped out of the water and flipped, it looked like it was balncing on its mast, but then it sank

[poprox101]

Dang, I'd really like to see a picture of that!:D

[austin4921]

um.. not to sound like a complete idiot but, what does it mean for a ship to capsize? hehe havent payed attention in history:whistle: but even if i try, i cant pay attention ITS FRUSTRATING:mad2:

[watty14]

capsizing means that the ship has rolled over entirely, meaning that instead of the deck being above the water, the keel is above the water, so basically the ship has just rolled over

[princecaspian4]

i have had my ship roll over due to lag (it started just roll over as i went along and continued rolling again and again for about a minute), but other then that i have never gotten a ship to fully capsize, i have gotten some ships about halfway when i ram them with a BB, but that only happens when i ram a DD or an SS

[watty14]

in the "turning point at midway" SP mission i got the Maya to roll onto its side and it stayed like that for about 10 secs and all you could see was the torpedo tubes and the AA guns, it looked cool :)

[poprox101]

It sounds to me like the only logical way for a ship to capsize is through lag. It definitely takes mucho destruction to get a ship to capsize normally, and I have yet to see it myself. If anyone has a picture, it would definitely be appreciated. I've tried attacking a ship from the side and the front, with no success. Heck, even getting the bow high up into the air would be cool!

uhm basically it jumped 30ft out of the water , flipped a couple of times and then fell upside down in the water again...:rolleyes: :D

[xgamerms999]

In other words, Major LAG.

Heck, even getting the bow high up into the air would be cool! all u have 2 do is hit a ship with so many torpedoes all on one side and be sure to spred the torpedoes out then wait and it will turn 2 one side then it will keep going and going and going till it has gone upside down or capsized :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

ships in BSM are not capsizing or lifting bow or heck out of the water!

maybe they programm this way of sinking in BSP! would like to see that!

[Bismarck1990]

Never seen a ship capsize, but like Bsm says, u can get them to list right over if u hit em with enough torps. I recall the last stand of my Kongo class BB on Solomon against a mate from College. He torped the bow so many times that the props left the water and it wouldn't move no more lol.

[sona1111]

i didnt know that was possible...

[Bismarck1990]

I assure you it is. Sometimes you can survive for quite a while like that!:lol:

[sona1111]

if you get arround to it, show a pic. :)

[Red October]

i did it on steel monster with my friend the ship was next to the island and shallow water and was sunk by multiple torp hits to the side. It was cool to see the yamisherio roll over the guns where sticking out some and everything.:D

[The Yamato]

Like someone said all you have to do is hit a ship with torps on one side then when the ship gets to low health hit it with several torpedos at the same time.

[xgamerms999]

I just unloaded 4 torps into the Maya, right in the bow. The bow went under, and the props came out the water, it was sweet.

[com345]

it would be nice if ships would be able to break in half und you see bow and rear lifting high out of the water!

You will be wanting the crew to take to thier life boats next toni....:lmao:

[com345]

sure! you should never stop dreaming and wishing! :D

[The Yamato]

Just like Titanic. If this was the case you would ram down the crew on the ship your sinking if your up close to each other, a bit voilent I would say.

[com345]

or it could look like this:

sorry to bring up an old thread but i got around to making a few pics:

http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w98/sona1111/carrier.jpg

keep in mind that all the ships in these pics are still alive and controlable. i could never get the props to come out of the water so that the ship could not move..however..

[Some Guy]

i once torped my own carrier to try to do that and it worked I had 3 avengers flying normaly then droped my torp then the others droped their torps hit the front of the CV then torped it with 2 DD's and when it had 25% i put my water damage on to 3 then the front was in th water and any plane launch with AI would crash into the water:D

[David603]

If you want to get ships with their props out of the water, try the Renowns. I've seen a Renown that had its props out of the water, but this was right before it sunk so I don't know whether it was controllable or not.

[M0n3y]

try to do this trick:
go on Sibuyan Sea
disable free fire on all ship closeby the Musashi
disable torp. evading
then take an USA sub and torp the back of the Musashi
do this untill she has about 3/4 damage or so
then enable water damage
then keep torping
after some time the Musashi will have 1 Turret submerged :D
you can try it with full water damage bhut i'm not sure for that

lets also remember when we did it with the 2 DDs with the yamato (or Musashi i cant remember) and the number 1 terrent was under that was funny :D

yeah that was great :D
it was musashi ;)

[sona1111]

the renowns dont work with it but the yamatos are funny to mess with.

[David603]

You can get the Renown so the rear turret is half under water. I have seen a Renown with its props out of the water but it sank almost imediatly after.
