Rockets are interesting, they are nice for DD,s but they too hit nothing. As people mention above though, the dmg of the planes is redicilous, except for torps, but only when playing a japaneese ship have I hit anything with torps, the time it takes to reduce the spread on other ships is just. The old way was indeed fun kinda like a strategy game kind of thing, now its this. To be very honest, I see the potential in this.
BUT jesus christ (forgive my language), they have explained that they aren't done tweaking this stuff yet.
