The Rising Sun - Episode 1 - Japanese 1.09 Beta Campaign - Ultimate Admiral Dreadnoughts
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 авг 2024
- Japan in the early 20th century was still finding its place in the world after ending the isolationism of centuries. Will Russia look to reassert itself after its humiliating defeat 5 years ago? Will the European powers look to curb an Asian great power like they did with China? Or will China itself prove to be a threat, or perhaps a target of conquest...
Just building and peace this episode, don't worry though - massive battles to come!
A new campaign! 1910 start date with the historical AI personalities and on Normal difficulty. There's no extra rules aside from a ban on using the strategy of scrapping flawed ships - all must serve! This is a BETA campaign, that means the save may break. If it does I will skip time to the next start date and keep playing.

I believe the Soviet Union / Russian federation ran into the negative range bug for the Admiral Kuznetsov carrier. You need to unlock the escort tugs and shore side power remote to resolve it.
You could build a BC on a BB hull. Just don't armour it too heavily.
Smoke interference doesn't seem to mater much any more, unless you were facing the bow directly at the enemy, and reversing. if its just billowing behind you i don't think the penalty is actually applied. So stack those stacks! till you get at least 115% efficiency. ~200%+ if you have the deck space.
I think there is interference from other ships nearby although.
The range is buggy when you don't have a funnel on. With the new cruising range stuff, the funnel now matters.
I think.
I think it’s been fixed now but I need to test it
Listening to you briefly mention the boxer rebellion makes me want to watch 55 Days at Peking.
Yes, Japan! Been waiting for this for so long
Hey bruv, smoke interference isn't nearly as nefarious as it used to be. Even like 50 interference is like, 2 percent penalty to accuracy. That's worth it in my opinion.
Alternatively, 95% engine efficiency is absolutely fine. You get barely any penalty, certainly nothing that is going to be noticeable during combat. Better to have 20kn at 95% efficiency than 18kn at 105% lol
Kinda dissipointed you kept only using one funnel when the light cruiser would have needed 3 or 4 to get any kind of speed, and the battlecruiser at least 2. But eh, didn't end up using either much. The range thing is weird though.
That has apparently been fixed
yeah
smoke interference is nowehere near as impactful now
i have a cl with about 80 and it gives a -4% base accuracy debuff; it only really effects firing behind you, and if youre running away that could be an issue but... running away is for cowards
@@bdub1682 but running away will reduce your does accuracy at you.
So that's good.
I would also suggest trying to hold a vector where their smoke obscures the foe but clears your own rangefinders.
That is you shoot upwind.
@@bdub1682 The only honourable option as the Japanese ; )
I think I heard you mention that the beta was supposed to last until Tuesday
Now, considering you're going for a campaign run, I'm wondering how long it'll be
Now that you're playing Japan, I expect you to use 18+ inch guns at some point, considering the Yamato and Super Yamato designs (18.1 and 20 inches, respectively).
That Destroyer design hurts me internally 😂
Never thought I'd see a japanese destroyer designed in an American way lol
12 inch guns have always had absurd accuracy. I have no idea if its deliberate or something intentional.
IIRC, there was something in the forum which said that it was deliberate
OHHHH YES JAPAN !!!!!!!!
REAL EXCITED TO SEE THIS
Out of curiosity, do you feel the benefits from forced boilers are worth the increased engine vibrations? Curious about your thoughts on it.
I use them to reduce funnel count, reducing the citadel length, and thus the armor weight. But after a bit, you'll have high capacity funnels and not have to use them unless you've got a weird hull
Aw, no Kure naval base? That's so sad.
You should name a ship class "banzai" meaning: "ten thousand years" (of life for the emperor).
As a Japanese I can proudly say that your wrong
I have started 1.09 in exactly same place, except I just built a small 10x 12" heavy BC (28kt fast battleship) class and an escort destroyer with 3" as my initial ships. The cruisers available is either way too slow (with a reasonable number of funnels) to be effective at the beginning, and I can have 1 BC for the cost of 2 cruisers!
I think that you are too scared of smoke, with the way smoke can be avoided by paying attention to wind, there is less need to worry about it, especially early on
Agreed. Plus the accuracy penalty is minimal even with pretty high smoke interference.
It’s just habit - it used to be much worse!
@@BrotherMunro Yeah been building ships for china right now and I have 40% penalty which is like 2% if I am sailing the wrong way
Ah I was wondering where some new hulls were but I swear some of the Russian pre dreadnoughts are new
may I suggest naming a battleship karai
if you do not find interest of my request I understand good sir blood for the blood gods and skulls for the skull throne 😁👌👌👌
I remember the first time I encountered a battle cruiser... I got high explosive loaded, be sure amount of caffeine I've consumed so far should have rendered me dead, and I charge out from behind an island and a heavy cruiser to see what I thought was a battleship at first but then realized was moving at mach fuck
Why didn't you put in another stack to boost engine efficiency on the BC in the first design?
Most inaccurate thing about this game is the US having a large Naval Budget in 1910.
With the new build flaws feature, I expect the AI to zoom right past it's normal USN bureau of ordnance level of incompetence and manage goat ropes on par with HMS Captain.
And already Yamashiro proving how unlucky that name is. I love the Fusou-class memes but will still admit that they had all kinds of design and build issues. He should keep her well away from Surigao Straight.
Interesting that you say the light cruisers are terrible. I've been playing the 1.09 Beta, and I find my light cruisers kick a lot of butt.
EDIT: Ah, you're starting in 1910. That might be why.
That bb with all the f ups . Call it titanic 🤣
Volume level is all over the place
At some point you have to name a ship IJN Millie-sama
You didn't adjust the armor thicknesses on the light cruiser. He drives with the AI setting.
Wonder if the game will let tender ships be built . As supply ships like German U Boats had . This would help extend reach of ships and resupply for repair parts at sea ( Evan ferry troops to make colonies better able to defend vrs invasion? )
smoke doesnt have any negative stats anymore you can slap as much on as you want to
Call that design pyro class . Or just mostly peaceful demonstration ships 🤣
Second Russian pacific squadron has left the building
Another annoying thing about flaws is that you can't see flaw chance.
Agreed it should be visible in the designer
Disagree.
I don’t think any naval architect, engineer or shipwright was ever heard to say “yeah this ship definitely has a ten percent chance to have a serious defect.”
Not in the Nelsons nor KGVs with their baulky gun mounts, nor the up-armoring of HMS London or up-gunning of the Mogamis; not the excessive forecastle wetness of the Scharnhorsts, least of all the Italian cruisers with guns so close together in turrets that interference between shells rendered them useless, was there indication in the design phase that “something’s gonna be wrong with this ship.”
It was only after they were commissioned, began working up, or even in active service, that faulty gun mounts, weak hulls, vulnerable power plants etc. were exposed.
@@dougjb7848 this aint a damn simulator so why do u give a crap
@@Frisian_man why does his opinion being different from yours make you so upset?
@@dougjb7848 I would agree with this if it was easier to fix flaws. Like, PoW after they found out her quad-turrets were kinda crappy was due for a rebuild. Here, we can't have a ship that goes 'Oh crap, this is actually pretty shite, let's have her go to the drydock for a refit'.
Big in Japan XD
I wish we coudl have a statistics of how many japanese dreadnoughts were names Kaiju, Godzilla, Gidorah, etc...
looks like the game plays like the 3D version of Rule the Waves games
I think that is what they were going for yes!
How do you "fix " getting stuck at "building new ships"? I'm at 1934 in a 1930 campaign and I've spent the last two game years force closing the game & reloading, which a) I think has screwed everyone else and b) has stopped my own progress finally. I haven't even got to fight yet...
Hit escape and go back to the main menu, then load the campaign back up
@@BrotherMunro Ah - more or less what I'm doing, because the game is quite literally hanging :s Thanks.
Found they absolutely messed up the formation system. Again...
Had a 18kn BB, and 20kn CA.
One ca rammed the BBS ASS. And the rest were waaaaaaay behind.
Is there a smaller barbet for the pew pew destroyer to save lbs and add more armor?
Any chance we'll get some dreadnoughts with more than 4 turrets in this campaign?
Some of the Japanese hulls are ideal for 10 gun designs so probably
Just an idea for the American campaign is that build the ships mainly BB’s historically accurate or close as possible and some cruisers as close as possible
Or he could go with the most firepower.
@@jeremielarin1979 the good ole American way lol but the battleships at least I think would be cool to have them look the same or as close as possible to the real life ones
American hulls are *really* bad for making anything other than the South Carolina class
Yamashiro got screwed over because of the name. That is an UNLUCKY ship name. RIP Fusou-class. Fusou and Yamashiro are good girls but damn are they unlucky. Under NO CIRCUMSTANCES should you take it anywhere near Surigao Straight. Just don't do it. Trust me, that is a BAD IDEA!
Me I would go with 3 in guns long barrels but what do I know. Then they can burn down ships
I've started in the new beta with the USA...and found it extremely hard to play, at least starting out in 1890. The distance involved in crossing the oceans means your ships have horrible performance when they actually get to where the wars are...and the nations you would logically be fighting (such as the Spanish) don't put any ships to fight in the Western hemisphere other than the occasional stray.
The bugs (I know its only a beta, but still) have also kind of killed it for me. My 1890 campaign only made it to 1907 when a bug kept crashing the game immediately after a battle. I gave up on my second attempt when I was stuck in a seemingly endless war with Russia but wasn't getting the Naval budget boost that usually comes with being at war AND I was seeing the diplomacy choices that usually don't appear when you are at war, so something was definitely wrong.
That said, once the get the bugs ironed out and make some other improvements (please let the map wrap around instead of making you scrolling all the way to the left or right when trying to cross the Pacific) the new update introduced some really cool stuff. I think that the Ottoman Empire and some of the South American nations should be playable though (such as Brazil).
I think the 1890 & 1900 start dates are best avoided until the patch is much further along
why do you play when battleships have the ladder aim bug? most of the turrets dont work and are bugged in battle
日本バンザイ！！！
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun …
lets gooo
Okay Where's that Undertaker appearing behind someone meme at?
I rather like the semni armoured cruisers as tiorpedo boats
Trying to armor a 1910 battlecruiser like a dreadnought? Compensating for Jutland?
Maybe...
You have to research proper explosives handling too...
lol everyone is a democracy in the political screen
But monarchies in the finance screen (government types are non functional at present)
I figured just thought it was funny
Why didn’t you go with the large cruiser hull (BC)?
It’s one of the most efficient hulls in terms of large guns to cost and displacement, though it is a bit weird...
And you end up having a ship at 18 knots, but the R-class worked, so...
Me being Germany sailed for Italy and 2BB 5BC fleet only 2BC didn't Germany dunked by mines
Unless it’s the French, or Germans, Pre-Dreadnoughts aren’t that interesting,
the only interesting Pre-Dreadnought hull you’re missing out on as Japan is the Old-Pre-Dreadnought, which at max size can have side mounted 10 inch guns, The hull is horrible though, you get overweight too easily
Then again, there are the French and German ones that allow 2 side mounted 10 inch guns...
Hey how can I opt into the beta, I already have the game

@@BrotherMunro preciate it brother
Re: that destroyer, does anyone know the Japanese for "Firing Squad?"😁
smalles BChull with 10" guns as AC?
Supposedly the error with them has been fixed so I’ll revisit the idea
How are you supposed to handle the flaws if you cannot scrap them?
Depending on the flaw, a lot of them can be fixed with refits. But basically, just live with it
@@tiedeman39 Or use it as reserve/emergency defense
Ik this might be late to announce but "Shikoku" is actually supposed to be spelled Shikkoku
Once you get to episode 5, here’s another challenge. Ships cannot be renamed when you choose a design.
why you hate pre-dreads so much
Because they’re terrible 😂
Yeah mate, they’re shite.
@@BrotherMunro they better than sailing ships
@@JafuetTheSame Sailing ships aren't in the game
@@JafuetTheSame
Torpedo boats are better than sailing ships
The game loaf so long for me lol, it's annoying
This is common in the early versions, optimisation tweaks are usually done last
@@BrotherMunro yeah waiting for it 😁, for now I just watch RUclips let's play
This game absolutely sucks. The whole ship design is a crappy gimmik that has no effect on gameplay and he AI cheats beyond belief to such an extent as to make it unplayable.
