Is this a warship game?

Hm, quick acceleration, turning, deceleration and parking 10 meters from a shore is not an issue in a warship game?

The main issue in a warship game are submarines and aircraft carriers (stuff that actually floated and fought in WW2)?

 

Have you tried a game "World of tanks"? It is a game about angleing and hiding behind hills, with no subs or CVs, so you might like it.

You have no power here PLEB.

 

It was a comment for wargaming, realistic is not fun. Its a game. Go in the navy if you like it.

Not having fun is an issue in a game. Most realism here is superficial anyway, but the point is that we feel it fits our expectations (even if they are completely wrong) and that we enjoy the game.

Works great with p2w ammo that almost ignores armor plating.. :D

WoT is the worst example you could come with. It's completely broken p2w crap where you pay more for better stats

Good point. However, opinions can differ what is fun. For example, for me personally those bits of realism and history that remain are the main reason that helps me endure current CVs or subs.

 

Why make WOWS a game about angleing and camping when there is already such a game (WOT)?

Opinions vary wildly on that matter, and Wg has to choose some level of realism. Make it die-hard realistic and I think you end up with a game only a small hardcore group of people would enjoy. Certainly not good for business and I doubt that group would include myself either.

 

On the other hand we could have teleporting ships with lasers (oh wait we had) which will certainly appeal to a completely other group of people (also not me I think..)

wows is basically big, lumbering tanks with a lot of inertia and less accurate cannons. But for me it feels completely different though.

And we dont have gold ammo....

Valid point. But some other player can consider WOWS as basically a pokemons on sea. However, that would not be very serious argument to demand for a feature to be able to find some hidden poke... ships in port to collect and train.

Yes, but so is FIFA (it has other nasty stuff instead).

If someone wants to play tanks, he should choose a tank game.

If someone is playing a warship game, he should be ready to deal with warships.

Someone has already given the game the following name: World of Warplanes - Naval Edition.

But with submarines we are moving more towards the water again, right?

 

The best players say the same, all the public feedback is mostly negative, but Wargaming doesn't care what we think. Anyone in a position of influence at Wargming obviously loves carriers. I think there is only one way to get Wargaming to rethink and that is to stop playing the game. They don't even care about shitstorms anymore. However most recently Wargaming simply did massive advertising instead of keeping players and convincing them to invest money.

Arty = CVs

Are you sure that WOT arty is the main spotter for the team?

Backline BBs, who are afraid of looming invisible subs and seek for a relaxed & safe gaming experience, would feel right at home in WOT arty, that is safe, long-ranged, and usually attacked only at the end of the battle.

Invisible ambushers? Kleber might feel insulted.

Wheelies are more like French and some other DDs.

 

Arty... Try HE (radar) cruisers located behind an island with an arc you can't return fire on.

 

Subs are more like Obj. TDs. Hit hard if they do hit, get into a hidden position and generally have poor arcs and poor rotation. Can die very quickly if they get spotted.

 

CVs are more like a combination of scout tanks and artillery working together. But not just any scouts, the fun ones. Like the old pre-nerf Chaffee.

I meant that on the large scale, its about shooting big shells at various angled boxes with various more-or-mostly-less realistic mechanics. Much like wot in this regard.

 

As a personal opinion i find wows basically more complex and interesting and much more

Either game must still provide fun and enjoyment. CVs provided more joy before both playing and against. And I can see how newbies find dealing with skypest and suckmarines problematic while us oldies are blowing their broadsides to pieces while they are figuring out whats going on.
