sinking the yamato

TwoGamers · 09-20-12, 04:47 AM

Two perfectly placed ones i think the exact middle, the engines, another middle and one at the very bow. This sohuld stop it and sink it, even if it takes a few days (Ive tried and it took four days to sink)

Alright this is how im going to do it, im going to fire 2 torpedo's at a time and save after each 2 impacts ,if a dud i reload so my 10 torpedo's alll hit where i want them to. I know this is considerd a lame way to play but ive been looking for this monster for a while. btw reloading doesnt reset damage does it?
Ill put 2 at the engines wich i assume are at the bow behind last turret.
2 right in the middle, 2 beneath the first turret , 2 right in the bow , 2 at the turret right after the bridge. Ill let you guys know how it goes.
Oh and with turrets you mean the big lower broader badass cannons like the two first on the bow right? not the smaller higher cannons right infront and behind the bridge.

Thanks again for the advice fellow skippers!

She is crabmeat now! I fired my 10 torpedo's exactly like i said and on the 10th she sunk. On all the pictures/video's i saw about sinking the yamato she made hugh explosions but mine just went down silently, rather dissapointing but well shes down

Cheers!

Please, try the Webster´s Torpedo Test Mission. There is a Yamato class for shoting and testing manual targeting. I sunk the ship with 10 fishes, in the way explained by Armistead, and with the Long Sinking Times mod activated. The ship sunk after four days...(after 12 hours of the attack, I had the message "ship goes down", but really it sunk after four days).

Regards.

Hmm, i don't know if it counts but i tried the single mission battle for the Philipines again today for the 123454th time without ever sinking her..with TMO 2.5

5 torpedoes later and she went down the deep

together with what looked like a nuclear explosion i guess the damage graphics decided to have a field day i was nearly blinded

, only difference this time was that i attacked somewhat late and she was passing along before i was able to fire 6 shots so all torpedoes hit her at an angle far from ideal, maybe that's the ticket i don't know i was never able to sink her before..even with 10 hits she would just sail along without me being able to overtake her

But that's just single mission play i don't know if that makes any difference, but it's alot of fun to be able to shoot at such a target while being bombed by 3-5 destroyers.

Sinking the Yamato is a great reward for a good job, so good for you

You can't sink the Yamato with 2 torps, unless the the torps have been modded. Seems like even with stock, it took 6.
