  • New Gamemode: GreatBlitz

Hi I come again with some insane idea.
Today my thoughts were for the 60-90 grind, when as a BB you are just food for the big BBs.
Where as a cv ou can just scout and hope not meet a T4 fp party hunting for easy kills.
What i propose is a battle like a GB just limited to lvl 90 like blitz is at 60.
This would allowed mid level ships to grow better, make more exp, and make GB funnier to play, cause you will less likely be oneshoted randomly.
Plus, to avoid to drain completely players from GB make a limitation like 12 BB and 12 CV (low level cv make less planes in the air, while less BBs makes Heavy CA, Subs and other ships more effectives)

What do you think of that?

Edit: so far the idea is still for a new gamemode, but since somebody suggested it, it also could be capped at lvl 85 instead of 90.
         This with the intend of avoiding BB4 "godmode"

im not sure what people developing the game are waiting for, this has to be the best idea out of this forum i have seen.

most people that have gotten their bb2's and bb3's deserve a place where they can fight amongst themselves.
A colorado in a room full of BB4's and BB5's isn't fair to him trying to lvl.
A CV2 shouldn't be forced to use locals in a room with CV4,5 and PCV's.

also subs should be kept out of this game mode when created, give the lower lvl BB's and CV's a break.
If they have escaped the unfair fighting in GB1/2 they should be able to fight each other, sub free.

I might be mistaken believing that those hordes like you say exists, what we really need now is a new genertion of players, not just trying to keep alive the old one. Not allowing a medium term playmode tha permitt tactic skills aquisition and selfsatifaction tothe players wont allow new players to rênjoy this game and will lead to a 90% quit since Blitz is not available

Not quite true but indeed true for a portion of players, should we not try to make the game better just to allow them to grind with their lvl 120 crew?

But they could still go on in GB since they have key sailors of high level and will have a good possibility to be actually challenging to the ennemy (those players are exactly what you expect to have for support roles in a GB, not just at lvl crew that are not really effective)

As i said before i loled hard on the communist part. If you want a econo/politic paragon i could tell you that we are actually playing in a neoliberist game (where big have really more importance of small ones and where sideway agreement rule more than law itself) what i would like to propose is more like a return to representative democracy than communism.

Actually you are grindin those ships, goo you could use them as support in a GB if your BO, gunners or torpedomen are overthe lvl cap.

Fact is that against even a BB3 a DD has good chance to make a usefull harrassement and allow the team to see the target and sink it, and this way learn what ship scouting is.
Or a CA would have a good chance against rushing ennemy because it wont be so easily oneshooted when trying to offer tactical support to the BBs and CVs

Seriously? You really need to see me play my Portland on Kaiser, i'm scoring well over 20K in GBs against BB 1-6's obviously your doing something wrong. Also my Kaiser account is near at level and not an all 120 crew.

0/10

I can do with........ You should see me........

Stop thinking only to your case and try to understand the needs of others, personally i couldnt even use that gamemode with my principal Crews for they all have BOs and Gunners over lvl 90, but the new players need a place where learn tactical skills, either cancel Hobbit war map (most game killer uptate to this game) or create a new gamemode for low level players that want to play tactical. Iremember when i started to play NF, blitz was fun as hell, you had to form lines, deploy the team in a clever way to be able to win easy, nowaday blitz are just shooting frenzy were its almost all about luck, no skills really needed, no skills learned, and you still asking why the average skill level is decreasing?

Ok we have here alot of experienced players that say that they dont need that gamemode, that is useless. But is useless only for the very high lvl players, is fondamental for low level players and will increase the skill lvl of players of GB, correct me if I am wrong, but most of complains arent fro the unskilled players that plays in GB?
Since the Target is to have a BB/CV 6 i can see many BB that actually still play as a CA or CL in GB, they rush just to make an hit and then wait for shared XP, if the medium level of players in GB really increase you could get rid of shared xp in a important fraction. Or CV that knowing that their fighter/bombers dont stand a chance load a lot of locals and screw the tactics of the team as soon as half of the CVs have locals.

Dude when i used to play Counter Strike my speciality was to chase snipers with machinegun or eventually with handgun and I was pretty good at it. Not for that i pretended tht all players should be able to do so because i am able to do it.

We all now that in those games skills are even more important that tools, but if you dont give a chance to the players to actually develop those skils you will never had an increment in NF players and that will lead t a slow death of the game, we need to increase the percentile of players staying in this game after lvl 60 and again orrect me if i am wrong but this is the point where most of players just uninstal the game. THATS what the game need to survive longer, to be able to face the more attractive graphics new games. And if you are really that skilled you wont have any problem in dominating GBs and Greatblitzes.

dont know why this thread is still up. needs to die

there are plenty of BBCA rooms up and the only reason is the exp, not because players are struggling with skill. When the event is up see how many return to their safe haven from BB456 and who just joins with the rest of them in GB.

To be honest, as a BB3 i would want to joining GB because even though there are a lot more threats, there is also more "food" in the form off DDCLCA. I would not join a Greatblitz where i am sure no smart DDCLCA would join.

As food yourself in a DDCLCA and you know it, what would you join? Blitz or great blitz? I think I'll take my chances against a Revenge rather than a POW. Of course you have the few exception CA..

so that leaves us with.. BBCA mode...

This mode won't give more skill it'll do less, just the way it is. Either adapt and overcome or get run over.



That mentality will lead to empty servers with only 50-60 players active

That mentality has been around for years. Then why are there still BB123 today?

also a few fleets have that many BB5-6 or more. Dont think servers will empty anytime soon.
