Line #6 Funny/WorldOfWarships


1	!Game
2	* The Japanese captain gets ''VERY'' excited for getting first blood, compared to everyone else.
3	** The German one, however, is more CaptainObvious about it.[[note]]Literally saying "That is a good start!" in German[[/note]]
4	* The Missouri comes with [[Film/UnderSiege Casey Ryback]] while in port. Watching him can be quite entertaining.
5	* Torpedoes are not FriendlyFireproof, and miscalculations can result in disastrous, hilarious, or [[BreadEggsBreadedEggs disastrously hilarious]] results:
6	** As this [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=djemtzmh3tI?t=1078 unfortunate Hosho]] finds out the hard way, it is entirely possible to [[EpicFail torpedo yourself with your own torpedo bomber squadrons]] if you are not careful. To a further extent, [[https://www.reddit.com/r/WorldOfWarships/comments/u42nyu/aircraft_carriers_can_torpedo_rocket_and_bomb/ this Reddit post]] shows that it is also possible to [[EpicFail rocket and bomb yourself with your own attack aircraft and dive bomber squadrons respectively]] if you are not careful.
7	** In another example of carrier derp, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6zJr58NXGQ?t=819 this video]] shows a squadron of torpedo bombers [[EpicFail completely missing the Konig]] [[FriendOrFoe and instead nail the Kaiser chasing the Konig]] (to add insult to injury, all the carrier did was weaken the Kaiser enough for it to be a OneHitKill to the Konig). The Kaiser's meltdown afterwards just adds to the hilarity.
8	* Rushing down the middle channel in Two Brothers is a LeeroyJenkins move similar to rushing the [[VideoGame/WorldOfTanks wide-open field in Malinovka]]. Sometimes, [[https://youtu.be/basK0yBVudI?t=403 it works]], but most of the time, [[https://youtu.be/basK0yBVudI?t=928 this is what happens]]. Regardless of the outcome, ''someone'' will be laughing either because the tactic was CrazyEnoughToWork, or because the enemy team just pulled a TooDumbToLive move that places their team at a disadvantage.
9	* One of the ads features "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2nFlVPmzA9I things you can do in World of Warships]]". Such as walk on water, fire on water, fire on the enemy, [[DieChairDie avenge the Titanic]], [[ArrowCam follow your delivery]], [[SceneryPorn go to the beach]], [[DeadlyEuphemism explore the seabed]]... And, of course, torpedo and sink the Yamato.
10	* [[Manga/ArpeggioOfBlueSteel ARP Ashigara]] has ''the'' best [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tN7Ovdt8G9Y?t=114 flooding line]] ever.
11	* Iwaki Alpha's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=voV7m3Tfe3A horn]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCaNgU7js20 sound]] is a bit...[[{{Dubstep}} different]].

14	* ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEDqe2Y14BI Orion In A Nutshell]]'' from [[FandomVIP Flamu]] sums up the issue with the British Battleships at launch:
15	-->'''Flamu''': 5.9k Damage, 40% fire chance.... What the fuck? (goes in game) Maybe it won't be as strong in-game even though the stats look like pretty insane. But perhaps in-game it won't behave as (fires a salvo at a ''Caledon'') strongly as the stats imply, I mean there's a chance it might just be a UI typo or- (shells hit ''Caledon'' and instantly kill it, with a citadel-hit) What. The. Fuck? Okay, maybe that was a fluke, 'cause I mean (fires at a ''Tenryuu'') because there's no way you should be able to devastate Cruisers with HE because that would just be completely retarded and I'm- (shells hit ''Tenryuu'', doing the exact same as what they previously did to the ''Caledon'') What the fuck? Okay, maybe it's much weaker against (fires at a ''Bellerophon'') battleships in return, because surely Wargaming would have searched for some balance here and they wouldn't just- (shells hit the ''Bellerophon'', not doing large amounts of damage, but setting no less than ''three'' fires) what the fuck? (Shells fired between cuts hit the ''Bellerophon'', setting another fire) What the fuck? (Bellerophon is sunk due to the fire set) Okay but that's just- (More shells fired between cuts hit a different ''Bellerophon'', setting yet another fire) Really? What the ''fuck''? (Final ''Bellerophon burns down'')
16	** Early version of British's battleship line during its initial run in test server has the Repair Party consumable on Tier 10 ''Conqueror'' healing [[GameBreaker more than]] [[BeyondTheImpossible the damage taken]].
17	* Izumo is the tier 9 Japanese Battleship, following an excellent two tiers in Nagato and Amagi, but itself being rather underwhelming in comparison. Because all its guns are all forward of the superstructure, they are often found bow-on reversing. Izumo captains must think they can get their Amagi back if they reverse hard enough.

20	* WebVideo/TheMightyJingles decides to try and sneak past an A.I.-Miyogi after shooting him up for a while and deciding he didn't have the time to deal with him. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rfJ6qyGEEo The Miyogi rams him for it]], causing a lot of surprise and disbelief for the team.
21	* [[FandomVIP LittleWhiteMouse]], an NA Community Contributor, is well known for her very detailed Premium Ship reviews. As well as some hilarious author notes and opinions.
22	** Regarding the Tier 5 Soviet premium DD [[https://forum.worldofwarships.com/topic/118211-premium-ship-review-okhotnik/ Okhotnik]]:
23	--> '''[=LittleWhiteMouse=]:''' Okhotnik makes me think of what would happen if you asked a small group of six year old children to design a destroyer and they each tried to one-up each other. ''"My destroyer is going to have four guns and six torpedoes." "Yes, but MY destroyer is going to have FIVE guns and EIGHT torpedoes!"'' By the time you get to the kid that designs Clemson, with her twelve torpedoes and six rifles, you know things are getting a bit out of hand. The Okhotnik is the next abomination to be conceived and you should probably stop the exercise there before someone reinvents the [[MacrossMissileMassacre Kitakami]].
24	** Regarding the skill floor of the Admiral Makarov [[note]] A Soviet clone of the C-Hull Nurnberg [[/note]]:
25	-->'''[=LittleWhiteMouse=]:''' Makarov is so damn fragile that even social-justice-warriors tell her that she needs to toughen up and stop being such a victim about incoming fire. This is not an easy ship to do well in.
26	** On her [[http://shipcomrade.com/?p=790 100th ship review]], she created a completely fictional premium ship named the ''Thunderer'', which is the Tier X ''Conqueror'' with the less popular 4x2 18-inch guns loadout bumped down to Tier IX a la ''Musashi''. She treats it like a completely serious review...up until the end where she reveals it was completely fake. A year later, in quite possibly the biggest HilariousInHindsight moment that will ever happen to this game, Wargaming removed the 18-inch guns option from the ''Conqueror'', and introduced the ''Thunderer'' to the game as a Tier X premium battleship, albeit in a different form to [=LittleWhiteMouse's=] interpretation.
27	* When USS ''Georgia'' (a preliminary design of the Iowa using a theoretical main armament of six 18-inch guns in three twin turrets) was first shown off to the community, a lot of people thought it was a joke leading into the April Fools event as it was announced alongside a lot of other April Fools content. Indeed, a lot of community contributors went along with the "joke". But April 1st came and went, and Georgia began testing on the live server the very next day. In a way, [[AntiHumor its funnier than anything they actually could have done.]]
28	* Wows Nightly News's stuff (an NA user making web comics) can be pretty funny, especially the crawl.
29	-->'''Crawl:''' Liberty ship laden with highly acidic salts made from You Tube comments sunk during Operation Aegis. Environmental groups say it could take years for the toxins to dissipate naturally.
30	** [[https://forum.worldofwarships.com/topic/194406-wows-nightly-news-48-saying-goodbye-to-downvote/ Issue 48]] was about how the the downvote option was removed on the NA forums. It treated it like covering a funeral for the downvote emoji. The image of all the forum emojis at a funeral alone was hilarious.
31	-->'''Hindeburg:''' Family members have asked the community to remember Downvote "by giving the stupids the negativity they deserve."
32	* April Fools 2021, and the utter ludicrousness of their interpretation of HMS Habbakuk; visible from pretty much anywhere on the map, 620k HP, planes that have Tallboy Bunker Buster bombs and several Cruisers worth of Secondary Armament, in-effect Thrust Vectoring propulsion, 7 knot top speed. Unlike Georgia, unlikely to ever see daylight, even in joke modes.
33	* [[https://youtu.be/kdKjpXPrnGg?si=Dia6vLmZ9lyoEoCb This game]], which was an exhibition match between the US and UK navies. The British team brought ''nine'' ''Schlieffens'' to the battle. The commentators start laughing as soon as they see the lineups, and it only gets funnier from there. As the American team is systematically obliterated by the ''Schlieffens''' massed secondaries, there are so many shells being fired that the game servers literally can't render them all, so all we see is the American ships apparently spontaneously bursting into flames before exploding and sinking. The video description even alleges that the British team was told not to fire their main guns!

35	!Promotion and Website
36	* On March 10th the site apparently started gearing up for April fools day with by announcing ''dolphin carriers'' as a new ship type.
37	** On March 11th the followed it up by stating they were adding Seasland as a new port.
