  • Why ECV are NOT good for CV play or Navyfield

So the issue, other than total lack of players, is a lack of cv drivers. The answer is the ECV......I think not.
This is going to push more people away from cv lines, why bother levelling a cv BO when your BB one can
drive an ECV at 70 ish and PCV at 100. Ok so you're never going to have a CV6 but the PCV are not that
far of and you will have a BB bo to boot (or why not just another ss BO). You can even buy your CV crew
on prem trade so absolutely no need ever to level a cv line ever.

Yes you'll see a few days of people getting there ECVs so rooms will be full of them but the chances are
they wont have a clue how to use a cv, probably only have 1 pilot on board and piss everyone else off
and make them leave the game as they are sick of being blind/unsupported by the cvs sitting at the
spawn point.

This isn't meant to be a rant, it is a serious. SDE who provided a lovely statement of plans for 2012
with lots of promises, one glaringly obvious omission was ECVs, not mentioned at all in there plans,
although there isn't time for HA mode and windows 7 patch. Stop wasting time on additions that are
going to make the game worse and fix the issues.

The ECV's have been in the game for a long time just never implemented. I do agree with you that this will likely cause less players grinding CV lines.

well they made scouts for BB's not for CV's
so just use them since you said
"probably only have 1 pilot on board "

and let me say it to you like this
"CV'S ARENT SUPPORT SHIPS FOR YOU OR ANY BB PLAYER THAT DOESN'T WANT TO
USE THERE SCOUTS"

The damage was already done when PCVs were made so close to CV6 in stats. Why level to 120 and pay 50 million credits when you can get a PCV around level 100 for a few olives.

IMO there should never be a ship above level 80 that you can get without having a BO specifically for that ship

Premium ships should have been just that, premium, rather than a necessity

There was a similar problem with PBBs when they came out but for some reason no one cares about the PCVs.

Thank you for your input but you're kind of missing the point.

I am looking forward to the ECV.
I need a couple more fighters for my cv5 and PCV.
I can now bring up my new elites without having to level another cv bridge officer.

To make money: New website, olive system, premium trade system, new NF store items, new subscription plans, .....ECVs that can be purchased.

To fix game/gameplay:


Long term solutions of improving game-play and program reliability resulting in a healthy game community? Why?

Just think how satisfied we'll all be after SDE apologizes to us by letting us give them more money with the "Sorry about the lag we told you was your fault event!" AND the Italy release!

a halfway decent BB player will have AA equipped, and actually use it to shoot those damned scouts and bombers down, while holding the line, and using their own scout to their advantage to sink that nasty little QV hiding in the shadows.

BB players need to quit bitching about CV players, and learn to not rely on them. There is a reason we have secondary slots for AA!!!! not for those extra 2 reps.

alot of problems would be solved if SDE would just turn around and disable the ability to put supports in T-Slots where they dont belong, thus "forcing" players to learn to AA to protect themselves

The noob BB player in me says "NOOOO!" but the long time CV player says "Absolutely!"
