And personally I love that map... What positioning? There are no good positions on Ocean. And its very fun when some ships are balanced around using cover, but instead you have to consistantly wasd and even if you do, the constant shelling from 5 BBs are going to hit you. And its very fun losing 17k hp to a Yamato when you dodge all the shells but one that flies off into your citadel. No. That $hit "map" needs to go. If you think this is a good map, you have no idea what mapdesign is. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought they had removed it from the game... In a CA without smoke, it is such a F'd map. I dont like this map one bit either, though many would argue that its the most realistic map in game. Am pretty happy that you get it once every 100 or 200 hundred battles nowadays, if I am unlucky and play one, I just endure it. I think it is really bad for cruisers, for DDs and Battleships it is playable. Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[CHEFT] ForlornSailor Players 7,374 posts 11,735 battles Report post #7 Posted September 11, 2017 Thats the problem with this game - that you cant chose map / game mode. No sane person would bring a cruiser without smoke to this map. Sometimes I start playing, get 4x standardbattle in a row and am so frustrated with the campfest that I call it a day. Let people chose map & gamemode and everyone is happy. Stupid maps and stupid gamemodes would die itself and there wouldnt be any moaning going on in the forums. win-win 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let people chose map & gamemode and everyone is happy. If you really think players would stop camping if they chose map & game mode, I have a bridge to sell, cheap and lightweight. The camping issue stems off lack of balls, people afraid to die in a war game, nothing to do with maps... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The will to discuss was posting the subject and commenting "I thought they had removed it from the game" and that for CA's without smoke its a f'd up map.

And personally I love that map... Yup, i see why. Out of your 1302 battles with T8+ u played 1057 with BB/DD/CV. And out of the 245 Cruisers 150 were MK and Edinburgh who got smoke on their own so they dont have that huge of an issue as like a Hipper f.e. The 95 battles with Chapa, Mogami, Charles Martel id say u had a fairly good chance without getting to play that map with those Cruisers. @Hawg No they didnt remove it, its just very rare nowadays.I think i had it 1 time after they made it less frequent. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[HOO] Hawg Players 495 posts 12,346 battles Report post #22 Posted September 11, 2017 I don't mind the map as long as it remains rare. If it becomes as frequent as it used to be, I wouldn't like that. The problem with it is that you can't decide whether or not to participate. If I knew it was going to be an ocean map, then I would take a ship that is fun on ocean map. But otherwise its just bad luck. Sort of like CV's, its the not knowing if they will be in your next battle or not that makes planning for them so annoying. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[TU] urr027 Players 205 posts 11,581 battles Report post #23 Posted September 11, 2017 I suppose map occurrence probabilities is not public information? I thought the Ocean map is gone as have not seen it I think for months (I don't play much though). FWIW, I'd like to see it more often (and I do play with nonsmoking cruisers).
