Spread and Aiming are the same thing. And there is a permanent drop of items, so players don't need to buy stuff if they don't want to.

On the ships where people spend the majority of the time, there is an improvement in Auto FCS when using the item, while keeping current conditions if they don't use it.

 

Bumping the accuracy revison in Aiming was considered, but the increase required to get the intended effect  (Auto matching Aiming when item is used) was too much to be acceptable. It would have brought a huge imbalance to low level battles which is a worse scenario.

The item is a buff across the board and while we had handicap players in mind while adjusting it, the fact is we also have to consider the overall effect of this among all nations and ship lines.

We decided to go for the overall improvement and prioritize the main ship lines BB/CV/SS for handicapped players and for everyone else playing the game. Those lines are where most people spend their time since the first levels go away very fast.

 

Well, this would have been a pretty nice credit sink, some smaller versions of this avaliable for credits. Much more better way for fighting against inflation than the trade board taxes.

Handicapped players will only experience a loss of accuracy on CA and below class ships, and that loss of accuracy is countered if they aquire an Auto FCS Accuracy increase part.

 

For BB play, Auto FCSs are the same as they were before, so with the Auto FCS Accuracy increase they will actually experience better accuracy than previously.

But unless they were incredibly overpriced, there would have been tons of them around and SDE didn't want that, maybe because it would have a detrimental effect on latency or something.

 

I agree, a credit sink is needed, and this could have been it, but personally I never have seen consumables work as credit sinks, but rather single huge purchases, which also works as incentive for those who don't have a ton of credits to go and play even more. So, I can sort of see why SDE might not have wanted this to be the solution.

Show me who claimed that.

different thread with benser:

 

Speed is same. (Base speed increased but L2 is 10,000 tons heavier now, so it works out as being the same speed as before)

Free displacement is better than before. (120 crew can fit without dropping to 37 knots, although it fits 0.1" less deck armor)

Benser speaks tah 120lvl crew fit better then patch, and to fit better and place lesss usefull displacemnt is lie.

If you read ih whole i speak SW is same or a bit better, but AW dont worrka with full 120lvl crev.

Tu po ONLY 9.3 on deck is unficient and is waste of 15 000 tons of displacemnt.

9.5 work, 9.3 dont work. Some people use 10.0. but now it is imposible, opr left some sailors at home. Ant there is question why to have Slots on ship which I cant use.

 

I hope I understant game mechanic, which is confusing and difficult to find how it works.

Today i have a question how much more fragile is L2 and recice only answer which i know that it will be more fragile but if 10 times, one times more or 5% more I dont recive.

Or do somebody from test team knove exactly equations of game mechanic ?
