I'm not sure if it's lag or incompetence but people seem to have trouble dodging Kita torps. They aren't too fast and on hobbit, going at the kita is often a good tactic. From what I've seen, most people don't know about safety range. When they should actually turn towards the torps at close range, they try to turn away and they actually end up getting themselves sunk. Subs, TB, and SN torps have the shortest safety range so you have to be extra sure when trying to dud those torps but for a ship like kita, it's not too difficult (Also look for torp splashes + better BO will help you spot torps sooner).
I still think Hobbit screws people over. Almost all ships fire torps and sail away. Can't do that later, and it's wasting 2 valuable leveling slots. I won't disagree that it can be a fun distraction BUT most of the people that play do it as their main thing.
Meh, just change the map. It'll lessen the torp abuse and make you a better player in the end. Sure you'll get called a noob host but you can always tell them hobbit map was originally designated as a map for ff/dd under level 30 only. Wanting, no, needing that map to succeed in CL+ ? Who's the real noob :)
