  • Sailors and Formulas should be clearly explained

Making a ship in Navyfield should not be mystical guesswork, it should be a lucid and efficient process. Nowhere, for instance, has NF explained the exact function of seamen. Nor do we know how, for example, engineers work. Sure, they have a higher engineering stat, but is it only the stat that effects their performance, or is it also the fact that they have the overhead and endurance abilities? How, specifically, does restore effect soft defense, beyond the obvious positive correlation?

We don't even know the ranges of guns beyond a crude chart whipped up by PapaJohns.

These are things we ought to have access to. We should not be forced to rely on crazy rumors when we make our ship and crew.

In the Beta you're supposed to figure out how things work...in the Retail version you're supposed number crunch. Of course people need to figure out the numbers...which is why we're here ;).

well this is a beta it would work better if we only had to crunch numbers

85% isn't guess work. 85% is exploring and puzzling out the mechanics. Which gives an advantage to those people who are willing to spend the time figuring out how each guns works, ect...Of course most of that is already done for you. Ala trainworld.

If 85% is random guesswork, then where's the fun? you may as well not have any real difference between sailors, just name them differently and try to fool people.

Perhaps a sense of mystery is there to force us to actually go out there and try things?

How much fun is a game where you know everything and 85% of it is number crunching?
