Final nail in the coffin

[HassenderZerhacker]

The German carriers event and now this...

I won't even wait for the subs to give me a good excuse.

Old problems the game already had when I joined: CVs and HE spam and that horrible WG matchmaking

Problems that got better: none

Additional problems since I joined: events went downhill, too many radar ships added, too many lolbotes with "different" playstyles added, too many missions (no time to keep up), and now the menace of subs being added. And somehow, a feeling that CV got even worse.

Mostly too many missions though. If I can't keep up, I cut.

So that was it... last WG game.

Maybe I'll still play occasionally if my friends want to.

 

Oh wait, there is still the Master of Orion remake... I'll try that one.

You don't have to do all the missions

Also too many non radar ships added according to you, since there are more of those.

How is that a problem?

Half of them are optional and the other half can be done at the same time (for the most part)

Fair enough.

For me it's the boring bow tank Russian meta it's boring me to death.

I’m surprised the Russian ships don’t have Tac Nukes yet 😂

They haven't yet figured out how not to blow up their own ship yet...

Dude there is not a single mission you need to do in this game to progress through it, not one...

 

You can get a T10 ship by never leaving coop ffs

But well designed missions would be good for the game. They could device a system of missions which would make the players feel more worthwhile to play varying ships, varying tiers and varying modes.

[quickr]

There's a rumor going around that you can actually quit playing without announcing it to the world.

 

Shocking, I know!

WG soon: We implement Rockets. Conventional warhead to all, Soviets get nuclear

As soon as that is happening, you see people posting on these boards that they:

 

- Cannot do the missions because they do not have the appropriate ships.

- Will not do the missions because they do not want to play those ships.

- Will not do it because they only want to play a single game mode, because other game modes are "stupid".

- Will not do it because the other tiers are "stupid" and full of idiotic noobs.

 

 

You see posts like that popping up EVERY SINGLE campaign/event.

 

Note BTW the addition of a new permanent campaign that does exactly what you suggest - at least as far as ships and tiers go.

I've started doing the new campaign. Most welcome, playing tiers 2 and 3 now. I really like those older ships. Getting regularly seal clubbed too. And.. loving it.

Personally I am completely on your side; I really look forward to being able to play that campaign.

 

Currently focussed on potato-ing to Jersi Swierski, then Science of victory, and then I will start the new campaign.

I stopped paying attention since the nazi carrier thing. I found one in my ships and sold it.

 I dare you to design a mission that is welcomed by each and every member of this fine forum.

 

Forumite 1: I hate playing coop

Forumite 2: I hate playing Ramdoms

Forumite 3: I hate playing low tiers

Forumite 4: I hate playing high tiers

Forumite 5: I hate playing DDs

Forumite n: I hate playing...

 

And as Flamu would say, "and so forth..."

 

[Arrive_Alive]

I always wonder why people care about missions.

 

I didn't open the missions-tabs in years. Most of them are done by just playing anyway.

There is a viable solution to all those 'issues' 

 

1/2  Play Operations

 3/4  with a mid-tier ship

4 preferably BBs with secondary build

5 set them on autopilot

I never took the freebie offer, is it all Containers and RNG as well?

Been looking at Elite Dangerous with Jingles playing it.

I have it installed here but not been playing it much now. It's not a bad game when you first start playing it, but it gets a boring after a while. It mostly just flying from A to B trading or doing missions in what they call the bubble (local systems), maybe even getting into mining to make credits faster to buy a better ship. Then you can leave what they call "The Bubble", venturing further into the unknown (deep space). But there's very little reason to do so. There nothing out there once you leave the bubble and venture into deep space.

 

For me that is what is really lacking in Elite Dangerous.  There are billions of systems to explore - but once your outside the bubble (local systems), there nothing else out there really and it just gets boring unless you want to fly to different systems that have no trading, no stations, no nothing bar landing on barren planets to collect minerals in your run-around vehicle. And maybe MAP an unexplored system and get to name it.

 

I like space games... but Elite Dangerous is more for real die-hard geek fans that just want to want fly around mapping systems with nothing in most of them once you leave the bubble (the local systems that do have bases)

MoO is single player versus cheating AI - only it's not much I at all and wouldn't have more chances to win than a snowflake to survive in hell if it wouldn't be able to cheat by doing things that the player can't do, but that's okay, as that's the usual way all those single player strategic games seem to rely on, as the AI of nearly all those games is.. see above.
