BBs are seriously the most useless class in this game 90% of the time and can't be bothered to pull the tampon out to take some dmg. I am glad you got wrecked and hope you get wrecked some more.

Looking forward to BB's going the way CV's did with no one bothering to play them much in the future..... How have you reached tier 10 and still not have even a basically idea how the game works? It is astounding the amount of whine and complain about the game because people are too dumb to even learn the very basics and just pay their way to top tier. Get gud! Learn when to use the damage control party, when to use a heal. Use the right modules, upgrades. Both YouTube and the forum is literally overflowing with advice and how to play the game, explaining the mechanics and effects. BB is not going the way of the cv too many players, also BB tend to be very forgiving class to play and thus attracts the glue sniffing horde. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Floofz ∞ Players 1,246 posts 7,392 battles Report post #20 Posted November 24, 2018 I used to be a BB main and then I took an RNG to the knee. No BBs arent underpowered and yes a lot of people play them because it requires little skill to do damage in them. The actual BB gameplay in todays meta is however horrificly bad. It is completely RNG if you do 1000 damage or 40k damage to a broadside cruiser. Some days youll wreck everything and some days the game just says NO and then you wont hit anything and your stats will dwindle. Something also happend in the last patch, you seem to be set on fire much much easier than before. Fires have always been frustrating but now I get atleast 10 fires or more per game with my BBs which means youll constantly have to pull back and heal up for a few minutes. Which ofcourse causes sniping behavior which just makes RNG an even higher factor. I dont know how to make BB gameplay better but you could even nerf them if it makes them less RNG based. Nerf the alpha damage and increase the accuracy and sigma drasticly for example. Or reward damage tanked with xp and credits so damage is a smaller factor. Just FYI, BBs will always be the most played class, no matter how much you nerf them. People will always want to play the big famous battleships, thats why I do it. Most of my ships are BBs, not because I like BB gameplay but because I want the famous ships Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is funny because 3 years ago BBs were far behind cruisers in battles played because cruisers were the braindead class of the game (higher fire chance, fire dealt more damage, HE always penetrated regardless of armor). Then WG nerfed the out of cruisers and made BBs braindead. And BBs have remained the most braindead, thus most popular class of the game. Another example? CVs used to be reasonably popular (you saw CVs in matches more often than not) back then until WG hit them with the nerfhammer for 2 consecutive years, making sure that only the best of the best can succeed. Thus you can be more than assured that if you nerf BBs to the ground that it'll ultimately affect player numbers regardless of their historical (in-)significance.

Even better, CV apologists where already 3 years ago whining about unfair and OP AA, lmao. Also the slightly higher popularity right after release mainly came from the fact that CVs back then, due to even bigger faceroll potential, farmed far far more credits and XP than even premium ships could at that time. A pretty bad joke joke, and instead of nerfing the OP CVs back into the row with the other classes, WG first messed with their credit and XP factors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
