[OGHF] Cyclops_ Players 522 posts 10,031 battles Report post #1 Posted July 25 Over the past year it would seem that all WG want to do is add and add more ships, does anyone else think they need to slow down on ship release and get more and better maps added to the game?? 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[ONE2] RAHJAILARI Players 2,292 posts 13,551 battles Report post #2 Posted July 25 Would not mind new maps either. Random mirrored map generation has been suggested, as a quick fix but nothing of the sort has happened either. A pity really. But on the other hand, there are some additional ships and lines I still would like to see ASAP also, so I guess they have to prioritize things for now so we can't have all at once, hopefully eventually tho. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was under the impression that at least some of the older players had nothing left to grind anymore. Also there is tons of new contect being added (new campaigns, events, tweaks and additions like the arsenal and new accompanying new resources). Frankly, I was kinda hoping they would add some of the 'missing' tech tree ships more faster I do agree that the addition of new maps is going really slowly... Same thing for new operations, though there's arguably more progress here then in new maps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If they dont copypaste a silver ship for doubloons and/or a new gimmick every 3-6 weeks they seem to get sent to gulag, or someone would think they did... 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Azalgor Beta Tester 715 posts 10,358 battles Report post #6 Posted July 25 You misspelled the word 'ship' in title, should have used 'T' and you would have been correct with the current amount of it, and more to come next patch. 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Never such a thing as too many ships! I'm still holding out for IJN light cruisers! Maybe some day post carrier rework we'll even get some escort/ light carriers! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I do not like when they are Gimick dependent (RN Cruiser, Pan Asia DD). Fully agree, but on the other side - after 3, 4 or 5 different lines of the same class it is hard to insert something "different" without gimmicks. And generally, new ships are needed, because 1) add variety to the game 2) keep grinders/collectors busy & interested 3) provide income for the company Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[CATS] ColonelPete Players 13,500 posts 10,344 battles Report post #12 Posted July 25 They will always look different. Look at the BB. Armored ships that make BOOM. Nothing else needed. The national design philosophies will supply enough differences. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[CATS] ColonelPete Players 13,500 posts 10,344 battles Report post #14 Posted July 25 Just focus on the ships in your tier spread. As long as you do not jump tiers, you will be fine. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[HF_30] tenacious_torps [HF_30] Players 1,288 posts Report post #15 Posted July 25 Modelling and designing ships is very likely not done by the same people, who design maps. Would I prefer more variety when it comes to battlefields? Hell,yes! But I don't see how this is related to the frequency of new lines/ships being introduced at all.

[H_FAN] Gnirf Players 1,850 posts 20,666 battles Report post #16 Posted July 25 Well, one problem with the maps is that it is quite difficult to balance a map with a lots of islands and also make it different than what we have. I am thinking of a low cost thing sometimes, what about if f.e. New Dawn or Big Race would be scaled up for high tiers , same map but just increase the size? Or Archipelago? You make it 100 % larger or so? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't mind new ships or maps. Though I'd prefer if some maps were less bad and maybe new Ops that are not T8 allied cruiser or T7 allied cruiser only.

[_MIA_] DFens_666 Players 2,836 posts 5,313 battles Report post #19 Posted July 25 New ships equals more money. New maps dont bring income Rebalancing old lines doesnt bring income either. So you know why they are hammering new ship(lines) / premiums all the time. Coz thats whats keeping a steady flow of income. Ofc they need that, since its F2P game. But obviously lot of ppl are spending money, so why stop? Think its the same with those FreeXP ships. Those must be real cashcows. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

megaducky Players 27 posts 98 battles Report post #23 Posted July 25 I would love new maps, especially ones with islands near B, I love to park my CVs there. However, it looks like WG is more intent on powercreeping lines then adding more maps. :p I would like some maps with local weather, shallow islands, or with some interesting strategic objective, (kind of like ops) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
