Water goes in
HP goes out
That's what flooding is all about

[SackMaggie]

Get hit by a torp in a DD ?

Flooding damage doesn't matter, You're already dead.

Flooding is the most dangerous element in game"

QUICK, MAKE MORE HOLES IN THE SHIP TO LET THE WATER OUT!

[ussvincent]

“Flooding is the most dangerous thing out at sea”

*Hmm*
*Yes*
*The floor here is made out of floor*

What I really wish they would add, is listing to ships caused from flooding.

Here is a new episode about the reworked flooding mechanics!
What do you think about this episode? Was it useful?:)

Chief of Engineering (over the intercom)
"Capitain, she's flooding in the afterdecks!"
Number 1 (Calls-out to the Bridge crew and into the general shipboard intercom)
"Dang it, call out the repair parties, shore her up and pump her out!, there's a flooding afterwards"
Capitain (commentatating his darker thoughts aloud)
"..Who'd thought she (the ship) could get so wet with all the sailors aboard!"
Number 1 (looking somewhat embarressed, over the intoercom)
"..keep manning the pumps you salty dogs, work like you've never worked before! ..she's not going down yet!"


Apologies for this old navy joke.

The fact this was done on my birthday... I am happy. For this is one of my favorite games.

"Its scares me"

I would like to see a tutorial on how exactly ramming works, and the inner workings of that

[TheTechiemoses]

Wish every game would do this. It is open and wonderful.
Side note, I came to learn about flooding in ships in real life, how they handle it, and how they attempt to mitigate it.

[infinitytacoz]

Glad to see you update your videos according to the game updates. Great video!

[EllenbergW]

Looking at that calculation at ~4:40 tells me that the Damage Control System is a complete waste of (in-game) money.
Having the flooding chance reduced from roughly 57% to 55% means, that you'd have to be hit by roughly 50 torpedoes to have the DCS system prevent a single flooding.

[SuprAtheAceofSpades]

I see that flooding has been nerfed a lot since the last time I played.

[zacharygriffin]

A feature I would love to see would be life boats launching and bonuses for picking up survivors

[karlinachen]

im always wondering why bigger ship took more damage from flooding compared than smaller ship? it doesn't make sense, that they are hit by the same torpedo, but different in flooding's damage taken. Bigger ship has better structural integrity, thus should be able to withstand the explosion better. Or did i missed something?
