Now imagine if wargaming staff play their own game, they could expirience something like I did now.
So its a new ranked season. Bronze tier 6 even with CVs is really fun, no radars, no super gimmicks, no submarines, just a feeling like a vanilla game. Its fun, you can carry the game and finish bronze fast if you want to enjoy it. CVs are annoyance but not that much to be OP in that kind of a way in tier 10.
Now I finished bronze and got to silver tier 8, and there where sweet spot comes.
There are radars but they last short, there are no subs. DDs CAN actually play the game. BBs can play the game and even cruisers can play the game. Without ultra mega lasting radars, without ultra mega superships, without ultra mega stupid secondary OP ships ( I am talking about you Schlieffen). Without ultra mega stupid Russian bias BBs and Cruisers (who are not OP but somehow they are always banned from CB).
I can say you can really enjoy tier 8 battles, if they just remove CV spotting it would be perfect, let them do dmg, but just remove damn perma spotting (YEAH ITS THAT EASY TO BALANCE THIS CLASS).
Games were fun, even close most of the time, ships were nice and more or less balanced.
And then I came to gold promotion like always.
All fun is done, radars that last forever, you cant play dds, or you can play that but at max range (god forbid that you enter a cap with a DD, you are instant dead). Some mega battleships that last forever. Some light cruisers with thousand of torps.
Instant dev strikes everywhere, toxic behavior, strange red noobs that end in gold ranked?? CVs that have unlimited and OP planes. Tier 10 is like a crap show of ZERO balance and fun in this game. Superships are even worse but I wont go to that.
-Ultra long lasting radars
-Battleships with ultra mega too big calibers
-DDs cant play the game as they should
-CVs planes striking power and plane limit is too big
-Cruisers worth more or less only with radar (in competetive)
-Light cruisers are sailing piñatas
ALL of this is normal up till tier 8.
So really, just by playing your own game you can really easy and fast find the problem and fix it.
Am I only one that see that this game works just till tier 8, after that its a disaster of no fun gameplay and not balanced ships EVERYWHERE. Is it really and for you also that fun stops at tier 8?
