The whole point of moving the testing to the live server is to see how subs fare against players.

You didn't pay 500 coal. You got 500 coal

On PTS I haven't even had the chance for my engine or rudder to get knocked out. You either survive an attack or you don't. If subs are still the same, LS is worthless. What secondary guns? TA? Not really No idea

That wouldn't accomplish anything. It would just be another PTS

Bruh

In my opinion, the only thing that has to be done with matchmaking is balance the average winrate between the teams to say <2% when possible. 3 max. Most of the time teams are within this range already, but on occasion you get matches where one team is 4 or 5 percent ahead. That's when the roflstomp happens.

For ships? Heck no. It's different but there is absolutely no balance. It just looks prettier

Yeah I picked that tip up from your stream. Atm the only problem I have is making the transition between convex and concave surfaces. Which is basically the whole front section of the ship hull. Maybe next time I'll try making it from two separate parts. The front concave and the back convex, and then join the together.

It can also create a stalagmite tho.

Well, I've started tinkering with the program a bit aswell. Here's my version of the modernized turret from the ersatz monarch. It's my first time doing this so nobody gets to say it's crap but me. Capisce? I also have a basic shape of my ship hull sort of done, but the shape is so amateurish that I'm honestly too ashamed to post it here.

Um....what? I don't follow flambass or anything so I don't know what's happening there, I just pointed out that he wasn't claiming that new players can get to tier 10 in 30 battles, but that veterans can, and that new players can move up much faster than they used to. I don't particularly care about his drama tbh

I'm just affraid that with the increasing xp inflation in wows, we'll eventually reach a point when it's a norm to only play 10 battles in a certain ship in order to reach the next one.

You said that new players don't have access to all those special flags and used this as a point to claim that because they can't make as much xp as veterans per game (but in the end still make vastly more xp than they used to) it's all fine.

And catering just to the casual players usually ruins the game. Just look at world of warcraft The whole point of wows is grinding. Getting to the end game content in a very short time is usually what kills the interest in games. It's like playing runescape and buying a 99lvl account....just why? I mean, people leveling up quickly wouldn't be a problem in wows if it didn't mean that poor players would constantly ruin the games for everyone else.

Why should grinding require less effort just because there are more trees? That doesn't make any sense.

Again, I will ask you: WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING? How did you even manage to miss the whole point of the video? Veterans with all the special flags get new tiers a lot faster than they did at the beginning. New players without any special flags get new tiers a lot faster than they did at the beginning. Where in the heck did anybody say that new players get 20k xp per battle, just like veterans can? Stop mixing new players and veterans please. They both get new ships much faster than they used to. This is the point.

I do actually have a secondary specced NC lel.....Don't judge me, you'd be suprised how many people don't expect it.

That's a whole another problem yeah. The 1 CV hard cap is deffinitely needed. Either that or some better AA at tier 3 and 4. That would make beginnergrad a bit safer place to learn stuff.

Well...the cheapest line costs about 600k so....2k per match? If you meant strictly for 300 battles

The numbers are just there to illustrate the point, they're probably not accurate

If a veteran gets to tier 10 in 30 battles that's way too fast. If a noob with no experiece or flags gets to tier 10 in 300 battles, that's too fast too. Of course no noob will have those special camos and flags, nobody said that. If they did have them, they'd get to tier 10 in 100 battles.

It's not just about new guys, it's about everyone. Nobody (not even veterans) should be able to get from tier 1 to 10 in 30 battles. Nobody should get to tier 10 in 300 battles when grinding their first line. What does this have to do with anything?

Not several thousand, but a thousand at least. For noobs who are rushing down a single line from scratch (meaning very few signals, camos, free xp or skill) 1000 as opposed to 300. The moment they get some experience, and xp boosting consumables, the number will fall rapidly.

The TL:DR version of the video is: People are getting far more xp than they used to and because of this, they're moving up the tiers too fast. He could do in 29 battles what would've taken the old him a few hundred. Or: it takes only a few hundred battles from scratch for a new player to get to tier 10, when it should've been several times that.

The new UI is fairly nice in my opinion. And much more responsive. I just hope that translates to the live server
