Opinions:

Good for WG. Good and bad at the same time for the playerbase.

New and bad players will probably advance faster and have it easier to stay at higher Tiers. Which will make gameplay worse for the rest.

How will they advance faster? I dont see any indication that this change will do that, in fact just the opposite as you no longer can stack commen bonuses.

New and bad players do not have enough boosters to stack a lot of them. And the stuff you will get gives better boosts than stacking some of the basic current ones.

Add the once again lower upkeep and you know where it leads.

Don't we all have a good idea what the one correct answer is  ...  considering Wedgies previous historical track record? :Smile_sceptic:

Pretty sure I saw a graph made where it showed that good players will make more base credits and bad players will make less than they do now. How common bonuses will be remains to be seen.

I think people now dont buy flags for exp much so after the rework people will buy boosters more,since boosters will be bigger, not to mention a new thing to sell.

but i must say i dont see the reason to ditch camouflage bonuses, its like now we can sail ships without any camo, q bit stupid since camuflages did play a role in ww 2 history, but i guess wg doesnt give a crap about history

Is the Made of Steel camo still going to be available and do the same thing?

My cynicism says 'bad' as WG never changes anything (especially not something involving quite a lot of work, as here) without it making them money, which generally means a down-side for the players somewhere. It just may take a while to become apparent.

 

My delusional optimism (which you would think would have been crushed by WG's actions over the last few years) thinks it may be okay, and possibly even a slight improvement:

  • If WG are being honest, then - on average - earnings (both interms of the various experience points, and silver) are supposed to be the same or better (per @SV_Kompresor above).
  • Apparently, we won't have to use horrible aesthetics to get particular bonuses (hurrah - I can bury Frosty Fir Tree, or whatever it's called, at a crossroads, at midnight, with a stake through its heart).
  • For those of use who occasionally like to buy our favourite ships pretty new dresses, it *should* cost less than previously (I think I read that the aesthetic components will cost less after the initial one).
  • In a similar vein, it should be possible to use cammo on purely aesthetic grounds, as the bonuses part is done separately; so, you might have a cammo you like but don't use because the bonuses are poor - problem solved.

Of course (again, as previously mentioned) the critical factor which will heavily inform whether my cynicism or optimism turns out to be right will be availability (and costs!) of the various bonuses...

If you mean this graph:

This graph applies only to Tier X, not any other Tiers. Without perma camo, you make more money every time in the new system.

With perma camo you are slightly worse off, when you cannot everage 200k. When you add even more modifiers, you have to average even less to be worse off.

Opinions:

Well......it will surely benefit Wedgie more than the players. If it will "help" the game......hmm... that remains to be seen. However removing combat bonuses from the camo's 100% does not.

 I think it will. Unless they are ready to refund the steel.:Smile_coin: Most of my T10's are equipped with that. I valued the ec benefits ( i.e to not worry and play the game as I see fit) more than a steel ship :Smile_amazed:
