  • What do you think about GBII?

lately i have noticed there are always 2-3 GBII open filled up with 20 bbs waiting for CVs
to start. i am starting to get sick of waiting 8 minutes to start a room.

hosting normal rooms/select mode/GBI is not an option because these game modes pretty much
never start, or if they do they take even longer than GBII.

what are your thoughts on this one? how do you think it would be possible to fix this issue?

i agree on this, i remeber going into a game O no no cv's in 5 mins? okay lets just go....

now its LETS wait for 4 cv's since if you do 2 it would be outa balanced and wait for 10
mins!!!!


now i say GB1's where the best, there where more rooms open at times,

CV's where able to play how they wanted....
BB's could level easier with the max exp per HOur instead of

2 games of 50k you could do like 10 games of 40k in the time of the amount of games.

i agree GB2's are not good as they are now! :|



*Edit:

Well most of the Cv's that are in the game that are GOOD or used to play much, have
moved onto BB's since theres no reason to play the cv since they are

Getting Flamed, when its only 1 cv that can only do 1 thing

Moved to a Battle ship

Moved to a Bomber Whore

Moved to a Submarien becuase they want to kill the flamers

Moved out of the game because they completed everything they wanted



mostly GB2's Killed the reason to be a CV i agree and flamers are making it even worse

Remenents
First, people dont play CVs as often because we are tired of people flaming us.
Anytime a GB2 game is lost, its automatically the CVs fault. Well, let me say this:
BBs, if you would actually put a damn scout pilot on your ships, learn to not drive in
a straight line, learn to CONTROL your scout and not let him fly at max height or the
lowest setting... then MAYBE, just maybe, CVs wouldnt have to waste all their FC
sitting over there enemy, NOT shooting down the enemy planes thereby allowing
DBs/TBs to get through and bomb the BBs that, not only DONT use AA, but dont
even bother to turn, pop smoke, or do anything when they get bombed...

That being said, I believe that GB2 is a useless game, especially now with all this
crashing because of HS. Wait 8+ minutes for a game (waiting on CV because on
what is mentioned above) then when game starts either Flag drops, you crash
instantly, you crash when you sink and cant press YES or NO button, or your lag so
bad that you sink 2 minutes into game. So, you wait 8+ minutes for a game that you
can play for about 5-6 minutes because one of those happen... not really worth it.
Ok, so maybe you get a full game or 2 in there every now and then. So what? The
Shared Exp for the game is crappy (either way you look at it... either because you
like it or dislike, its crappy either side of that line). The Flagshp style of pplay isnt
bad, but when the other team has 2 Bomber Whore CVs and sends 2 waves at srat
of game to sink your flag in the matter of 90 seconds... I ask SDE, what the hell is
the fun in that crap?

Anyway, remove or fix GB2.

*well maybe they could make it so that the highest winning % becomes flag, so that we dont
get moron BBs getting sunk in the first two minutes.*

Thats not true, I've seen really bad players with high win ratio's, padding your stats is
easy on NF.

"Make BB's able to be flag in absence of CV's, remove necessity for cvs to start. "

Funny how so many voted that they wanted the flag to be CV only.

"It's boring and making me not wanna play NF after one or two battles. "

QFT

You guys remember how there was a problem getting CVs into GB1 so they removed the 2 CV
minimum for starting? CVs are obviously not as common as BB/CL/CA but SDE seems to be
reluctant to do anything about this now. A "fix" for GB1 is long overdue.

This game mode is obsolete. Nerf XP from GB2.

GBII's should be removed.

- Reliance on CVs is a joke since so few people play their CVs, either that or change it
to BB and CV can be flag.

- Several games I have been in I have noticed many flag CVs voluntarily retreat; ABing
perhaps? happens more often than pre-merge.

- When a flag has sunk/crashed/voluntarily retreated, the team that needs to counter are
too scared to do so.

The main problem is people choose this game mode as it gives the best EXP per game, but
not neccessarily per hour. Also, going by what happened during the credit event a while
ago if GBIs or any other game mode was played more frequent to the point GBIIs were
outplayed then TNF would probably remove all game modes as the 'flow' of the servers would
apparently be affected.
