Hey guys,
I used to play NF from 8th grade to Sophomore year of high school ('05-'08 ish). I'm now a Freshman at college, and I just saw James Cameron's Expedition Bismarck in German on Youtube (not understanding a thing except for "dee Bismarck", "dee Hood", "dee Prince ovvvVales" etc) which got me into thinking about playing this old game again.
I used to play USN primarily. After slaving away in a SoDak with pathetic range, I finally getting the Iowa, I decided it was time to call it quits.
So things I remember from the past
1) Two turreted Nelsons with RP-12 (I think that's what they were called) that could withstand Thor's hammer and Zeus' thunder bolts and sink half the enemy team. 2) Lions with two front turrets doing the exact same thing. 3) Zee Germans whining about how their guns had the firepower of a twinkie. 4) Z99 and DDX DDs had everyone crying "Burn them!" 5) Same thing as above, but with Sevastopols and Moltkes 6) The introduction of premium accounts and super sailors and the ability to buy veterans and such. Had a lot of guys who grinded for months (like me) grumbling about how rich kids with daddy's credit card could do the same thing in four or five months what took me two years. 7) Banging my head on the keyboard every game playing Alaska and Guam and wishing I had gone Suckvada while Suckvada players wished the opposite. 8) Introduction of PBBs which made BB3s useless.
So three years later what's new?
I see the Frogs and Bears made it into the game. I saw submarines and I went "Aw hell no"
What should I know about changes? I suspect there's a lot of them lol. I'm gonna see if I can buy a mouse and start playing as soon as I can.
