I like this!

A PvP mode is much easier and quicker to arrange, yes. But the operations have a place in the game as well, because.. well.. they are different and usually require different kind of game play. I wish we could have scenario like PvP battles! But most players would fail unless they get the benefit of 'scripted' scenarios to guide them. One very simple possibility would be create a 'historical arcade' PvP mode, where in deed you had no islands or blasted rocks all over. Just... water water everywhere. Otherwise it would work just like randoms, only better. All done in the best possible taste!

Well.. bought the Colorado back, tried it out after a long while. Must say, if the new line is anything like the Colorado they are going to be outrageously OP. I was two tiers down in my battle, stock ship, no modules or upgrades, no combat signals and with a one point captain only. We won (not just bc of me), and I placed third in the results, right after another tier 7, Shiratsuyu and tier 9 Östergotland. And.. most players in the game are actually better than I am... Actually, who cares!

I miss old WoT.

If only WoWS would be even remotely simulating naval warfare, yes... now it is more like a circus arena featuring some 'show' done with smoke and rocks. War time paint schemes would be wholly appropriate if we were to battle on the Ocean Map! And BTW, ships shouldn't look like they do either....

What in blazes is that?

They'd manage about the same as they manage now... ... but at least it would be helluva lot more fun and engaging!

One factor which favors higher tiers are the mission requirements. You simply have the potential to farm more XP, free XP, ribbons, damage, credits everything the higher the tier is. IMO this is a problem and a huge flaw in the mission mechanics.

The irony is that people go to the trouble and expense to reach tier X and then it's like 'Dude... where's the end game content?'

Not sure if WeeGee is literally banking on the sort of players who actually like the current game, meta and fantasy ships rather than Operations and more historically relevant game modes. If they are, and if they got a split player base in this regard, what you think will happen when one or both of the following will happen. The first segment will eventually get bored and go for something completely different. The second segment will find a new online game focusing on... Operations and historically relevant game modes... And where will that leave WG and WoWS?

Convenient!... but from whose point of view...

The Dunkerque is not some Lesta Cafeteria special. You can't just change it to give it ahistorical stats... oh... er.... b****r....

Didn't bother buying even one, though.

It almost seems like the guns only work on certain angles. Otherwise, they miss most of the time. Also, the Desync is always a factor, and may or may not explain the number of overpens you get these days on any BB. The Kremlin is not my favorite BB...

This has popped up before, and I am advocating an Era based solution to this problem. I dont' know if this would make WG money or make them lose money... 1. Pre-dreadnaught Era. Ships of tiers 1-2 only 2. Dreadnaught (WW1) Era. Ships of tiers 3-4(5) only 3. Interwar Era. Ships of tiers (3)-7; Treaty Era ships and WW1 era ships with post war refits. 4. WW2 Era Ships of tiers (6)-10; WW2 ships and Treaty ships with WW2 refits 5. Cold war Era Ships of tiers (9)-12 (if we had such)

But no carrier battles, they were in secondary roles. Dreadnaught country!... ... very watery, deep kind of country but you get the idea.

No carrier battles!

I could live with the slow reload, but I'd want a floating asbestos castle in return...

I too prefer historical ships... or.... possibly theoretical refits where historical ships aren't an option. For this reason I would like to see a high tier... uh.. projected refit of the Russian BB Petropavlovsk because one of my many (and dubious) cousins once had a job on it.

Where's the profit fun in that?

They could add a new gimmick to these BB's... 'No CV's Guaranteed'.

In most cases the ships have turned out to perform worse than people have expected... oh ****....

Overall it's random for any ship. I sometimes hit the ship next to the one I fired at...

I wasn't talking about their size...

Okay, so finally something that can't be traced to the Lesta Cafeteria. I assume, WG must have done something to make what are essentially WW1 designs to scale up to the requirements of the higher tiers. In some ways, I like this approach more than the fantasy approach, mostly because this game lacks meaningful WW1 content.
