I just "played" a domination game in the map "Land of Fire"; it was a tier VIII match and i was sailing my tier VII Colorado.
What happened: i spawned alone in the bottom left corner of the map. As the Colorado has a top speed of 20 knots i immediatly realized i was doomed.
Directly in front of me spawned 3 tier VIII premium ships: a Kutuzov, an Atago and a Tirpitz.
I tried anyway to reach my other teammates, which of course focused on the flags on the other side of the map as my side was very weak and doomed to be rekt by the very beginning; after a minute or so a 2nd enemy Tirpitz showed up and spotted me.... in less than a minute the Kutuzov and the Tirpitz reduced my health by 1/3; i was forced to hide behind an island, waiting to be slaughtered by them.
My personal game ended in about 3 minutes and it wasn't fun at all.
The spawn postion of my team wasn't good either as they were spread through the map in a very unbalanced way (of course it ended in a defeat).
I have to say it's not the first time i've noticed issues with spawn positions on this particular map: spawning with american BBs like Colorado or New Mexico in such positions is completely unfair as they have a top speed of 20 knots and they can't in any way team up with allied ships. Also, the ships are spread very far away from each other and (as in the game i've played) all top tier ships are often on the same side.
How is this possible?
Have you ever seen similar situations?
Is it possible to do anything to solve these issues??
I'm so sorry that my first post on the forum (after a year i've been playing this game) is a rant, but i was very pissed off by the fact that i was sentenced to death in the exact moment the match started.
(apologize for the bad english)
