  • Difference between GB1 and GB2?

It's all GB1 games now, but what's the difference? The only thing I can see are differences in max BB and CV , minimum # of ships, and GB1 has no "flag" mechanic.

Is that it?

Supposedly, you earn more credits in GB1 than GB2, all things equal. Supposedly... lots of misinformation floating around, so I'm not confident that's true.

You make a little less xp for gb1, but more credits, and points.

CV's will make a killing in gb 1 with the + 50% credits on weekends.

There is also, if I'm not mistaken no torp exp nerf in gb1.

With the new limits of BB and CV GB1 yields more XP. There are two reasons for it. GB1 gets started quicker. And GB1 seems to be have less shared XP. The former means less waiting and more playing. And the latter means you can get decent XP out of a match that your team totally screwed up while you did well yourself.

From my personal experience I got a lot more average XP in GB1 today than I got in GB2 until yesterday. And thanks to shorter waiting times and shorter battles I also got to play much more battles than I got in GB2 until yesterday with th same time invested.

On top of that GB1 always yielded more credits and more points, especially when you do something like AA. So this means many AAW players. But it also means tons of credits for CVs. Actually for CVs it is a gold mine.

1. GB1 has no CV flag. This also means that a team with lower team attack cannot win the game simply because the other team's flag is dead or disconnected.

2. Winning is determined by team attack. Whichever team scores the most team attack by the end of the game, either because one team is wiped out or because the time limit is up, that team wins. For example, if Team A scored 500k attack by the game's end, but Team A was wiped out by Team B, which only scored 400k team attack, Team A wins (Team B loses).

3. BB XP is primarily dependent on the BB's personal attack. IIRC, BB XP is 90% personal attack and 10% shared XP.

4. As the ship tiers get smaller (lower), the player's XP is more reliant on shared XP. IIRC, DDs get almost or entirely all shared XP.

5. What people have mentioned earlier. That is, GB1 gets more BBs and CVs in the room.

**I do not remember how XP worked for CVs and SSs.

Ok, to clarify things:

GB1 has no flagship and the BBs are much more important. A fighterwhore supporting the best or best couple of BBs has a bigger inpact on GB1 then it did in GB2.

Wins are based on team attack ONLY. Even if you sink the entire other team if you have less team attack you lose.

In GB1 torpedo attack is earned exp as opposed to totally shared like in GB1. This benefits Kita, submarines, and TB players. Possibly DC users but I dont remember that one, besides theres a tk penalty for damaging yourself that hurts DC users.

In GB2 DBs are earned exp, in GB1 they are shared.

In GB1 exp for anything under a BB is shared, same with SS and CV. This shared exp is based on the level of the ship you are playing (CV6 gives the most DD1 the least). Basically like GB2 except torpedo attack adds a bonus ontop of that shared exp.

In GB1 BBs exp is more dependent on attack. The % of shared exp goes down as your tier goes up. GB2 seemed to have a huge ammount of shared exp no matter the BB tier. Probably due to flagship bonus mostly but even in a loss or win without flagship bonus the shared exp was greater.

AA gives bonus credit and exp in both gamemodes but with less shared exp in GB1 your exp is more dependent on your individual performance.

GB1 gives atleast 2x the credits. With GB2 people could not make enough to fund BB6s really only with their BB line.

GB1 and 2 are both socialist systems but Gb1 is closer to capitalism and GB2 is closer to communism.

This may sound stupid, but how can the team that has all it's ships sunk have more total attack? Is attack not = to the DP of all ships sunk?

"In GB1 torpedo attack is earned exp as opposed to totally shared like in GB1. This benefits Kita, submarines, and TB players. Possibly DC users but I dont remember that one, besides theres a tk penalty for damaging yourself that hurts DC users."

V2C, I played my US SS4 for several games today, and here are my results (each of these games resulted in a Win, and I stayed until the end of each game):

Game 1:

105k attack, no TK penalty, sunk PoW, hit H39 & Joffre CV
Resulting Exp on lvl 78 BO = 12k Exp

Game 2:

84k attack, no TK penalty, sunk AW L2, hit another L2
Resulting Exp on lvl 78 BO = 12k Exp

Game 3:

1,774 attack, slight TK penalty on friendly sub (he drove into my rear torp after I sunk), hit QV with splash
Resulting Exp on lvl 78 BO = 6k Exp

This was on a Free account, and from these results I am starting to conclude that with this patch they also ninja-patched that GB1s count Torp Attack towards Shared Exp just like how GB2s do.

Reasons for this conclusion is because before, in GB1s, for 104k attack on a free account I could get anywhere from 20k-30k exp from hitting BB1s/2s/3s or even CLs/CAs (obviously they weren't the majority of the Attack total)

so you're saying submarine are at total disadvantage now because of the low exp? it's almost x3 lower frm your record
