Err, what is this speed nerf some of you are talking about?

The only BBs that have received a nerf were the BB2s, however, they're still the fastest
BB2s out there. O-Pro II received a speed buff, Bismarck's OH ratio was buffed to make it
easier to speed cap. H39 always went 40kn with AA, and it can still go 42kn if you take of
AA and the 1 bind it gained in the BB34 patch. H44 was always capped at 39.

If you want the highest speed, with the best range, be prepared to have damage relative to
the 11" guns.

And as for Kaiser: Yes, 37kn is slow, but it has the highest range of any BB in this game,
and the armour penetration issues aside, even the hitting power is good.

KM BB speed is /not/ fine.

Bismarck is painfully slow at-level. H39 is 'Okay', but more horsepower is never a bad
thing.

giving 5 knts bonus speed in OH would allow our glass cannon ships to be able to
contend with the hoard of noob-friendly Lion 2s and Montys. or even just the HP boost
for far less speed reduction with fat crews and armament...

and the embarrassingly low Kaiser speed "So that other nations can catch it" Is some
of the worst reasons for making it so slow. KM's suppose to be dominate in range.
We're suppose to out range and out strip other national's ships. There are Submarines
that match/outrun the BB6. That's just sad.

I recommend this one.

Although the Oproject 1 is very fast, going 66 knots with dual 14''

KM BBs speed is fine exept for Kaiser 22/37 no matter what you do and H44 is very
hard to speed cap, but other than that its fine. I would love to see my Kaiser going
23/39 like every other BB6. And yah the KM PCV goes 42 OH with max DP with 1
engineer.

havent you see a KM PCV on overheat?
that thing flies

I do this a deposit :p

''free'' the TNF mod use Locked

Locked it the largest uses locked moderator forum.What is that mass locke :you are stupids
i'm a smart tnf?

The money they make is based of of prem and items for the most part. So basicly the goal
is to get people to spend their money.

They have a system that invites new players and makes it fun for them until they get a
BB1. At that stage the person decides if they want to stick with it or play something
else. With the exp in the game at this point anyone can get there in 1 month of play with
prem. So if you get new people with 1 month of prem they come to the crossroads of stick
it out for bb5-bb6 or play something else.

Since there is little actual help for new players SDE is wanting them to fuck up their
first crew. That way they will spend some extra cash to make a good second crew. As of
late tho there is so many issues with navyfield so many crashes that people are getting
fed up. The wait time is up and generaly most NF players are assholes to new players. This
dosn't help the new guys that SDE wants so bad.

Yet SDE basicly shafts the old players who have given them money who has multiple bb5-6's
that they have spend money on. They don't listen to the people who are dedicated and are
willing to give them money each month. I at one time was one of those people. I would get
my prem every month and a few items and be on my happy little way. At this point I do not
see myself giving them any more of my money.

As a "old" player I would love to work on some more lines and frankly i would have given
them more money to do it, but at this time with all of the problems in the game I just
don't feel it anymore. At least 1/10 games I crash. Every patch they bring out they mess
up ballance or create more stability issues. Santa event i was crashing 1/4 of the time....

You tell SDE that they have a problem and they basicly tell you to screw off. So why would
the old people who are willing to spend the money keep giving them money?

So in short yes Dan they are makeing money right now but it is short turm not long term. I
personally don't call what SDE is doing good buisness sense as I would expect my product
to get better over time. They are shooting themselves in the foot by not looking at big
picture. Listen to your die hard players they recruite for you they spend money on you.
When i started this game i got 10+ friends to try it. I would not recomend this game to
any of my friends anymore.

Is that how you make more money?

The server population i.e. the registered numbers of accounts created on the NA servers is
large but the numbers of people playing them is very small, plus the amount of multiple
accounts played by one person. There's more people leaving the game than joining and this
has been the case for several years.

Remember when Yuno nearly lost his job because of a "whole in profits" totalling $500,000
USD due to an overly generous event?
SDE can't afford to keep up servers on a game with a shrinking profit margin and the
moment that their losses overtake their income the game will be licensed to another
company, like E-Fusion in the EU server.

If its not worth doing the servers will shut down, this is a natural progression, the fact
that the game on the Arizona\Iowa is more populated by people outside of north America
now, compared to in 2005-2008 means the likelihood of another company distributing
Navyfield from North America is small, therein affecting the population again and there's
no guarantee at all that our accounts would be safeguarded in such an event.

Merging servers will do exactly what Yuno feared, i.e. the total population will shrink
slightly, the activity on the server will peak for a period of a few months then sharply
decline to the point where the remaining servers will need to merge again until there's
just 1.

Navyfield won't "die" soon, it is dying though, its terminal, the greatest fleets and the
high water marks in NF was reached a LONG time ago, we as a "Gigaflota" are riding the
crest of a wave that is temporary, and also riding the coattails of the decline in other
fleets power.

Other then the Kaiser itself the range advantage ain't all that great. We get what? A
pixel over L2 with the H44. Big whoop all they have to do is slightly turn towards our
ship and guess what their in range. Range doesn't mean squat if your enemies can
just lean towards you and hit you three times as hard as your shells.

The reason why KM is slower, is because of it's range. I agree with you that KM
should have more speed, since it's supposed to have the best range and best
engineers. But the speed was nerfed long ago due to the fact that when KM has
speed, it becomes lethal and hard to stop.

If you look at the KM BB6, the reason why it goes slower is so people can catch it
and hit it.

So it's really not the horsepower for the KM ships... It's the fact that they have been
nerfed to be slower. And it's my opinion, that KM needs to be rebalanced, and given
either it's speed back, or bump up the shell damage. (along with other things, but im
too tired to think of them, and dont feel like wasting the energy going into detail.)

Yeah, KM BB's have taken too much of a nerf. In my opinion they have the worst BB's in the
game because they are slow, huge, underpowered, and only good for AA support.
