[HALON] marcopieroni16 Players 114 posts 4,446 battles Report post #1 Posted March 10, 2021 there are plenty of battles in real life where only the carriers fought, other vessels were just an escort, so i would suggest an operation entirely for carriers, it can be the attack on pearl harbor, the bombardament of darwin, capo engano (kinda) , coral sea, midway, guadalcanal, santa cruz and much more........ the maximun would be, you guessed it , 6 carriers, from tier 6-8 . i think it would be really fun to see different squadrons for once, and not only my own planes........ coordination of attacks from air with different players sounds good to me, of course, in random MM it may not be easy, but in division......i think it would be really fun 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[CHEFT] ForlornSailor Players 7,374 posts 11,735 battles Report post #12 Posted March 10, 2021 There are so many nice real life naval battles, that could be placed into this game. Yet, WG doesnt seem to be interested in it. We had sososo many suggestions like this one over the years and WG pretty much reacted with... removing more and more scenarios, that we used to have. So dont get too excited over your idea, chances are, it will never make it into the game... 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To make even more frustrating, if possible, and anything is possible when it comes to WG (except getting what we want, it seems), there are those constant 'Battle events' that pop up in the calendar. You'd be excused for thinking how amazing it would be to have rotating scenarios, for instance, that are set to portray those historical battles and engagements.... but no, this is WG, so instead we get template grind missions where the only thing that rotates is the event label... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I get the impression that the actual percentage of players that WG would require before they're willing to actually support the mode is always at least 1% more than the percentage of players playing Ops, regardless of what it happens to be. Seems like a lot less effort on their part to gradually stifle and quietly kill off the mode than put any effort into supporting it... 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sadly though we all know WGs stance on scenarios that apparently they are not popular enough to warrant developing or even bringing back the missing ones (makes me wonder what percentage of players actually play scenarios). The problem with scenarios is that nobody is going to play the same scenario 20 times in a row, as it's too much of the same thing. If they want to make scenario's popular, maybe they should survey players on what they'd like. Personally I'd love to see scenario's for each tier that are constantly available, not rotate in and out. If there's about 10-20 scenarios per tier (including tier I-4) with various difficulty ratings that are constantly available so you don't repeat the same thing over and over and there's a reasonable grouping facilitation (indicating how many players are available per tier, not just in your range). So something beyond automated matchmaker (which pretty much every MMO sucks at). Then I'm pretty sure it'd be fairly popular, more popular than coop surely. People would actually have an additional reason to play low tier ships and premiums beyond looking at it in port or seal clubbing. I mean, why would you get a tier II or III premium if you're never going to use it in anything remotely challenging? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[WCBG] BrusilovX Beta Tester 2,838 posts 23,907 battles Report post #19 Posted March 11, 2021 WG has gone out of it's way to prove that operations are not popular. They withdrew a few around the time of the CV rework - Dunkirk and Cherry Blossom spring to mind. They also nerfed the rewards from Narai along with attempts to fix the AI pathfinding (which apparently was caused by the code used for CVs path finding). Narai was also taken out of circulation a few times along the way. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or WG is afraid that if they double the number of ops and maybe set the rotation to every 3-4 days then large numbers of players will flee the degenerate gameplay in randoms that's caused by the CV plague and the utter failure that is deadeye... and that is a thought that give them nightmares. Or I could just be being unnecessarily cynical again.. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
