  • BB6s in GBs

When are individuals going to be limited to how many times they can use a BB6 per day?  You have people running around farming new guys who are trying to level all day, driving them away from the game.  Not very "new user friendly" if you ask me.

BB6s and BB7s at least have balanced speed, comparing to unbalanced EBB6.5 :D

- 49 knots, range BB6+ and one of largest salvos in the game.
- the 2nd largest range in the game and 42 knots (that's the speed of the fastest BB5-6s)

Yes, and we are going to see a lot more of these bb6.5 after this event.

ive been asking since bb7 were added to ban all 6 6.5 and 7s from gb as it was obvious to everyone what would happen. Add this to the obvious AB thats going on when you have multipull 6s from same fleet. There voice ops must be well we will go north you go south then we will meet at the end. Had vareing repllies like we will increase repair costs off them never done new mode for them never done.

One way to get rid of these matters in-game (without technical support) is running kind of battles where you can set your rules. For instance, on RU-server one could create a "normal room"-type battle in either battle zone, and type his own rules as a header, such as "no BB 6 here" or "MN ships only" or whatever. The battle had to comply with common rules (no arranged battles, everyone is allowed in/no discrimination, no TK etc), but otherwise it was legal, the host could actually ban everyone who takes a wrong ship, etc.

There was a habit for some time to create a specific battle format in a neigbouring battle zone - BB-4 and CV-4 (RF) only were allowed. Or even BB-4 only.

Problem still was, though not technical, but the fact that players just went for GB (no matter how bad it was and how many players whined at forum about those GBs) and few wanted to join something else. With time, such battles became unsupported by the community.  Not sure if this is possible on this server at this time (technically and legally), but even less sure people will come play them.

And I doubt the BB 6 + will be limited in GB...It will probably be considered as discouraging for their owners, and there are more and more such owners with time.
 
The "funniest" thing here, - if I'm not mistaken, some BB 6 + are not considered as SD-ships? So, there can be 2 BB 6 + some BB 6,5, BB7, EBB 6+ in one team?

My point of view :

Perma BAN  BB6 / 6,5 / 7 from GB1 & GB 2.

Re-open WAW rooms, with minimum sailor level 115, and minimum 10 players to start the room. 

Problem is solved.

Don't forget that nowadays it's impossible to start blitzkriegs for beginners, so new players need to play GBs easily. 


I see VERY often noobs going north with BB6s,  leaving just a BB5 south. 
This is killing GBs.

I do not see any exclamations here: "Ah these damn SS," and "ah, these damn bombers," "ah, those damn smokers," "these damned RN armor," "ah, these stupid noobs", etc. Maybe you should offer to enter the "Only BB1,2,3,4,5..." mode? Although what am I talking about... This mode can be created now, but who is interested in it ... It is better to see the cause of the problems in someone else other than yourself.

I don't care if players feel the need to play top tier ships in gbs. I look at it like this, everyone likes to brag about how good they are well...if you need a bb6+ in a gb then your really not that good. It takes more skill to sink a op bb6+ with a bb5 then visa versa. So if you want to brag and puff your chest then be the player that sinks bb6s with less of a ship. It is fun to me making a bb6+ pop smoke vs a bb5. Thats skiller i tell ya. So while your bombing around in your bb6 remember the skilled players are watching and laughing.

On SS topic:
Totally agree with the opinion mentioned here.
There are lots of small ships with PHH nowadays.
There are lots of BBs with PHH nowadays.
Some time ago there was policy to nerf subs.
Actually, nowadays there is no reason to fight against enemy SS near other enemy ships, since more or less understanding players will easily win the fight by use of allied PHH. At the same time there is close to 0 reward for a successful attack. So what's the point? Only to have some fun vs artificially created difficulties :-)

On BB6+ topic:
read the event rules - make 7 wins per day.
The better ship one picks, the more chance one wins (unless one is a noob :-) ).
What's the point to pick worse ships and spend more time to get these 7 wins?
If the event conditions would be "make 1k+ dmg per battle shooting at higher level ships" - we would see different tendence.
But who cares on the proportion: SDE needs to sell these EBB6.5 :-)
