i think SDE should try to implament a premium item exchange/trade. Where you can trade premium items for other items or sell them for olives. It gets fusterating when people have max HQ space and we get hq expansions. So you could trade any premium items for another item or sell it to other people for creds/points or even olives? this would be a really nice feature.

BOTs in game to make blitz work is a great idea. I used to use the 5 CL mission to gauge whether or not a certain ship build was good enough for Blitz. If you have ever run this mission. Its not easy within the level 60 blitz guidelines. So adding decent but not Over Powered ships to Blitz or even GB during off hours battles is almost a must.

Any advertising would be good, also maybe an incentive program. like free premium if someone names you as a sponsor? It's a great game and I have been playing since BETA, I would play more if there was more people and I must admit I still like the events where you can win stuff if you play games. Also getting rid of the multiple accts ban might bring back some of the older players.

we need do anything with smokers

what about an explicit guide about what experts vets rookies make on each sailors because new players need it

better base on yellow sailors now days base 11 and 12 are not doing anything vs súper elites hero santa nfx sailors and lots of people havnt that much money for spend in experts or they dont know how to do it

we need teach all themcy

hello everyone,im returning.

and i have some suggestions want to share.

1.There is no denying that we have only a small number of players.so add a "how many active players online now?" function.Let us know if there are enough people to open a GB game.

2.if players less to open a game. could consider open exp and expert gain of mission room? atlest we can spam our time in mission room and get some award.but not waiting like a idiot.

3.consider improving the CA/CL model to find more fun like the early NF games. For example, weaken  the sailors repair, hit and loading ability,disallow to use event/prem ships, make the battle more chaos and more interesting. Better able to reflect the tactical level rather than using the level or event ships to crush others. also you need raise game award to balance crew lower exp on CA ships.

4.make 'random' a default map setting for more fun.

Ref. leveling. Yes - there is a balance on how easy it is to level up / gain XP etc.

In order to give starters a head start create a new CL/CA medium ship which comes with some GOOD sailors already on board in fixed positions and some open slots which will gain XP/level up the usual way, but with XP as if the ship is at that level of the sailor (so to keep XP gain at maximum for that level - like that the ship levels up with the sailors).

Maybe 50% fixed and 50% sailors "leveling up" and that the "in transit" sailors do not count in terms of ship performance.

Result would be that such a ship is not handicapped with low capability sailors and has a better chance to survive eaven in GB. Some tweak (CA with ASW, buff in AA, slight increase in range to BB1 level) so that you survive longer. If you want to value AA skills than players should be able to switch the buff of and enjoy extra XP.

Maybe some dropped boxes with usefull stuff just for these ships.

I know this is not old style but it should give newcomers and old hands a more uniform plattform, the game experience and not sailor skill level is the main deciding factor till maybe level 60 or so. Above 60 the more traditional rules would apply, also - see all the other comments which are helpfull.

I am not being a pesimist here. Just realistic.......

We all know there are problems here. Lots of good ideas abound. One of the most Daunting aspect to new players is the rate of experience gained, credits, and points attainment. Then add in the fact that you must add and level more sailors as the ship support requiements grow. NF has already said they dont think the XP gain is too long as we are supposed to Enjoy the long grinds as they are fun. Quoted from their Olivelab Facebook page.

"Olivelab (Navy Field) Hi, game is supposed to be a long term fun instead of hit the max level within a week. Furthermore there are many events to boost up the training speed. Thank you. "

Here are some facts:

Rougly 52,000,000 XP to level 120 and you need 14 sailors to do this but 115 guys will work for most slots. You know the BB6/CV6 requirements.

You will roughly need an additional 15 million XP to hit 125. So roughly 67 million XP to max the game out.

Add in that you have to spend extra games to level the guys that are not at your ship level because the lack of support slots on earlier ships.

Then you will need 50,000,000 million credits. 20,000,000 points for each BB6/CV6. SDE/They say you can do this in less than one month. Sure if you have an event like the 10 year anniversary of 2015. So some where in the likely hood of 1500 to 2000 games and if you are going the BB line. You wont have the points or credits to do it. Expecially if you are rolling for Vets. Do the math before you post please. 4 games an hour. Less than 50% win rate. Lower tiers dont get max XP. Assume 40,000 average a game. Botton line is only a select few can and will play everyday 8 hours + a day to attain a BB6/CV6

Unbanning and Reopening IPs, Using Facebook to advertise. They all help but people will come back to the same thing. Missing accounts. Lag. Disconnects. LONG grinds. Lack of Credits/points. Malfunctioning HQ. Massive Crew Death. ETC ETC ETC.

I am sure I missed some Pros and Cons to what I said.  We all get the point. The Grind IS long and hard and not rewarding enough. Especially for new or returning players with missing crews.

Nothing has changed except:

Unbanning all the IPs they banned over the years. 
NF was bought out and the new company wants to make money.
You can post in the forums without fear of banning (for now).

Other than that. Its business as usual or lack thereof.

Hey vinnson,

i would be glad to help advertise about the game in FB or in other places... i too belive that blits and skirmish are very important becouse for low lvls GBS turn OP for them.

i also think it should end the massive multiple bans.

Also as i read a few replies ago it would be a good idea to win exp from missions in case there is not enough people playing or encourgh people to test their skills doing hard missions but with high prices like exp, money, points, etc.. soo the game wount be soo monotonus...
maybe u could also creat missions like HA but where u fight the computer no necesarly agains other fleets to be hable to train the fleet abilities in battle and team work.

Also i belive olives are to expensive maybe a 20% lower price would help a little bit.

and trying to do events that encourgh people to play, not buy stuff.

Thats all for now.

kind regards,

NF FAN!! :)

Just a suggestion that I am sure everyone will agree with. Crew Death has to stop. It is insane lately.
