[-SBG-] ColonelPete Players 38,559 posts 19,178 battles Report post #2 Posted October 2, 2021 I would like to see more islands, that people would be more encouraged to move forward and not rely on distance to survive enemy fire. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[I-J-N] Karasu_Browarszky [I-J-N] Players 13,025 posts Report post #3 Posted October 2, 2021 The devil made an island. (Well... at least one. Possibly copypasted on WoWS maps.) There's very few things that I'd be willing to pay WG any money these days. One is historical camo patterns/paintjobs (and flags...), another is historical battle scenarios, and the third is... GIVE ME AN OPTION TO NEVER SEE THE EFFING ISLANDS AGAIN. The Ocean rules! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[OLDST] OldPhart Players 35 posts 6,202 battles Report post #5 Posted October 2, 2021 Oh heck yes I do so so agree with you DreadArchangel as I have made a comment on this and some extremely silly camouflage patterns and those Transformer items in game along with camo and so many small islands you cannot have a good fight with one or two other players before bumping into something. So yes 100% agree with you on your comments Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LOZFFVII Players 2,848 posts 5,365 battles Report post #7 Posted October 2, 2021 Why not make a map with just one big island in the centre, where the only ocean is around the borders of the map. I mean, it will change absolutely nothing when subs get added to randoms next patch. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do believe there's a few real life 'Devil's island' - wasn't the movie 'Papillon' about the Caribbean French Devil's Island penal colony? Has WoWS Devs drawn a real Devil's Island on any of their maps? Anyone know? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spartan_Renegade Players 855 posts 7,183 battles Report post #18 Posted October 3, 2021 How about they remove up to 60% of those massive obstructing Islands and rework the entire water mechanics so the ships can heave and surge in motion especially in turbulent weather. The water movement in this game is pitifully dull and flat. Surely this isn't much to expect from a developer that regularly keeps pumping in Space ships, Transformers, and other kiddie crap into the game. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No disrespect intended, but why do take an interest in playin warships if you hate the ocean and the way naval battles, in fact, are fought.

Which (sane) person would want to get "Ocean" in a (light) cruiser?? But yeah, it is a lot of fun being crossfired and devstruck by a BB all across the map.

Open maps, especially Ocean is abou long range shooting that a lot of players detest, including me. I like brawling, playing around the terrain, like breaking line of sight. I detest camping, and I’m almost always on the move, or bow in in strategic position. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
