Couldn't have said it better.

Though if I'm playing a CV, the BB's I prefer to have on my side are the "consistent"
ones. The type that hold the line until an opportunity opens up. It doesn't matter if you
got 100k in the first 5 minutes of the battle. You're useless to me if you're dead.

The best is b*******...

I guess my point of contention (which we've moved away from now) was more that to
be the best you do not need to be perfect.

No doubt it is hard to work out who is the best, so the easiest way to is to just work
out who are the top 1% or 5% or whatever and try and find the underlying factors for
their success in BB and work from there (which goes in line with what you said).

hey i know what is we debating about in this thread.
like i said previously elliot gives us to-do-list to become 'very/really good' BB player
(or best players in your opinion)

it is almost impossible to determine the 'best' BB player since there are over than 10000
players in one server and we can't possibly tell who is the 'best'. even though, we can
determine who is 'really good' BB player since there are many of them

@Briz

I'm going to take the easy path.

Best: the person who is most outstanding or excellent; someone who tops all others.
Perfect: being complete of its kind and without defect or blemish.

If you say there is no 'best' player(s)/trait(s) in navyfield because they are not
perfect then please tell Princeton to change their definition :P

Perfect implies being the best, but not visa versa.


Someone who performs best in a class of thirty people does not mean he/she got a
perfect score - it means they did better in the test than the other 29.

Someone who performs best in a BB of 10,000 people does not mean he/she is a
perfect player - it means they did better in the 'test' than the other 9,999.


On what qualifications you 'test' them and why it makes them the 'best' is what is
being debated in this thread.

***
That's like saying the 'best' computer is a computer that runs at infinitesimal speeds,
therefore suggesting there currently is no 'best' computer right now since 'best'
apparently is directly synonymous to 'perfect' (according to you).
***
correctness.

***
Best is relative - it always has been and always will be.
***
correct again :)
best IS relative, it differs from one person to another, 'A' say 'best' is something like
this, 'B' say 'best' is something like that. but in my very opinion (and maybe most of
you) best means perfect. for example you have a wife, that wife is BEST for you and its
PERFECT for you. in other example there is no PERFECT human in this world, there is no
BEST human in this world. another example would be the players inside this game, there is
no BEST players that can master each and every of the game aspects, so, there is no
PERFECT players.

***
The premise upon which this
thread was constructed is that the 'best' skills to have to make someone a good BB
player is subjective.
***
not all of those 30 qualifications, someone can't specialize in all of them. they maybe
can do 10-20 of these, and can be considered 'really good' players, still, not the best.

***
You can argue that 'best' might mean who has the most fun which means you can
argue that 'skills' do not matter; there is no measurable best. However, the opening
post provides the context for which definition of 'best' we are talking about; it is
talking about in-game skills such as strategy, longevity, aim, dodge, etc.
***
yes i am arguing 'best' that is in this game, not in real live or somewhere else. someone
can't AA while shooting, someone can't micro manage planes while dodging bombers, someone
can't bomb a ship while evading torps. so what i was talking about is there is no 'best'
players that can do such many things at the same time. elliot gives us what it takes to be
a 'really good' bb player, but none of us can do some of these things goodly. in short,
number 30 is (99%) unreachable

***
This means you are posting in the wrong thread.
***
i don't think so >.>

For me, no. (1) attitude, is most important.

It doesn't matter how good a player's skill is. If he behaves like an arse/spoilt
brat/prima donna, then he falls under the same standard as Chang, Agreen or
Altsein.

ooo 9 pages.

the forumula is pretty simple.

1. having a "base" skill in hand-eye-brain coordination.
2. not beeing mentally stupid (the game is simple, isnt it) = know what to do.

3. multiply 1&2 with the actual playtime per day/week/or "months" in my case ;P =
=== how good a player is.

sure there are always gamers who dont fit in this formula.
reasons, you should know why.

some guys just shouldnt play

oh, and getting married also has a major impact on skill in online games. lolz
means multiply result of (no.3) by 5

ciao


edit; dreaming of navyfield in the night because you play sooooo much is also a
factor which gives extra skill.

sry for bad english, - learn german

bona?


If I couldn't play both Zoomed out when facing multiple opponents or not use zoom while
facing a single opponent, I'd be pretty pissed off.


A good BB player doesn't need a CV to win. I've had 2 battles where I knew my team sucked
and I'd park in the corner til everyone died and I've come back to sink the entire enemy
team solo. (This was before GBIIs came back) Just takes a bit of skill and a lot of luck
and anything can happen.

There is no really "Best" BB players. Everyone has thoses days where they somehow know
their angles perfectly then the next they can't aim worth anything.

Who's bona?
