  • 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"

You know why there is shortage of players? partially due to the fact that people always wait 20/8, i mean you reach the exp cap a bit earlier, you could go even with a little less capital ships, games are more captivating, shorter and have a shorter waiting time, in the end in 1 hour if you play shorter games and faster you would eventually have made more exp than the ones who waited.
Instead of having 2 full room and 15 BB who wait to someone to open a room to avoid to be the one who has to watch the screen you could have 1 GB and 1 of those battles.

"You guys are dreaming. This has been suggested many many times. The problem is, you interrupt the food supply to higher lvl ships. You think BB/CV 5-6 want to only battle each other? No. That would take real skill. Anything that promotes even , balanced competition they will veto out of hand.They need the 1-4 to feed on to hit HoF, simple as that. They can make any other excuse and talk in circles forever, but none will have the balls to come out and say it. They had to be food and suffer, so do you."



So lemme get this straight. According to you the only reason people are in HoF is because they abuse their extremely high leveled ship to kill extremely low level ships. That sounds completely counter-intuitive and contrary to the whole reason HoF exists... it should represent the best players, i.e. the players that can kill the most ships of their own level. It should not represent the players that can kill the most low level ships.

Maybe like a BB/CA battle.

hi to all...

1st of all have some respect for players that have reached a BB5 or BB6, many of complains here sound like baby cry. i am shure that if a BB5 its given to a n00b it would certainly die with 0k damage... i have seen many n00bs playing in borrowed accounts that can only die with a BB5 after doing 5 to 15k attack.

and i also have seen players with borrowed PCV acc. that fail to provide light and therefore make their team loose...

to play correctly in a big Ship Take skills, if you don't have it you are food, just as simple as that...

myself with a BB2 can make 30 to 50k damage every battle and if my team is scouted correctly survive untouched the battle, and im just consider myself an average player.

also i have played lots of battles with my Yorktown with T2 fighters (before T4 they where still a disgrace) and managed to keep enemy scouted at north hemisphere in many of these...

the only "broken" step in the BB grind its BB1 stage (those 15 lvls from 50-55 to 65-70). but if you use this to learn you will be learning what a BB line is, and when to rush or run... in the end i was making 10 to 20 k damage every battle with my tenny premodel with at lvl sailors.
there is a reason for this to be broken, (it's for you to get tired of BB1 suckinnes and buy a PBB) but if you manage to reach BB2 without buying it you will realize that you won't be need it, BB2 it's fine enough

the CV broken step nowadays its CV3 stage (with CV1/2 you should enter Blitz and if you enter GB you should go "mini BW". I mean from lvl 60 to 7x, when you reach T3) but you can use locals up to lvl 75 and play "defense" for your team not to be scouted

so instead of trying to make new types of room that will only fail (a good BB2 and BB3 player at lvl 75 to 89 can eat BB1 pretty quick and a CV4 with lvl 80+ EBVE T3 fighters can cripple lvl 60+ T2/Local fighters. Plus exp gain will make the grind last longer) just learn the tactics for your grind and improve your playstyle. In the end the those "shitty" grinds would have teached you A LOT for the final grinds

Right now we have a situation where you are "learning" in direct contact with the maximum lvl you can get in this game, nothing in between. A lvl 90 cap GB would be more fun for players lvl 60-90, and wouldn't hurt the game one bit, other than to force the top tiers to fight tougher overall enemies, no more gravy train.

It's the reason every sport, game, or competition I can think of uses ranking (lvl) to sort players into tiers and let them compete. Even in FPS games, where essentially everyone drives the same "SHIP" they STILL sort people by experience level, to provide a more fun experience for all. This is the only game I can really think of that doesn't to be honest. It's a prime example of what happens when you let the top tier players decide what is best for the game, even when it runs counter to common sense.

Everyone knows you learn more, faster, by actually DOING. It's why they dont stick amateur boxers in the ring with world title holders. They wouldnt learn much, and I don't imagine it would be much fun.

But its a symbiotic relationship. They give you shared xp, you be food for 30-40 lvls. If you take away the food, then they would have to feed on each other, and that isnt a vision many of them look forward to, no matter what they say. They'll invent all the reasons in the world for not having this mode, but at the end of the day, it's all about food, and where you get it.

Good Idea, It has been proposed before but I support it because of this: MANY NEW PLAYERS JUST LEAVE THE GAME BECAUSE THEY GET TIRED OF BEING RAEP'D BY 16"+ INCH SHELLS RAINING FROM THE OTHER HALF OF THE MAP.

Now that I said that I will get a little bit into detail: This game needs new players to sign in in order to progress, it migh sound silly but I support the idea of BB3s to be included in this game mode because this will teach new BBs how to play effectively. They need lessons, lessons that can't be learned if you get raep'd by three or four 16" shells that came from a Monty during the first minute of the game, we know that doesn't work. But we also know that just turning BB12 against eachother will result in n00b players saying OMGIREACHEDLVL50ISHNEEDTOBECOMEAWESOMETORPWHOREWITHLARGEGUNSLOLOLOLOLIWILLPAWNALLTHOSECASDDSFFSCLSLOLOLOLOLOLUBERAWEOMENESS. I've seen what Blitz BB players do, it is not pretty (BBs with torps and justifying it, even worst daring to call me a n00b for not using that configuration when I see them in GBs rushing) and that is exactly where BB3s fit, they are not powerful enough (At level and up to level 87 at least) to just uberpawn everything in sight, but they are still a formidable adversary and can teach the new players to use their BBs.

And Well, with CVs it's different because level 75+ fighter pilots can start raping other lower level fighters.

LET ME PROPOSE A QUESTION: DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR CAP LOCK BUTTON IS?

That being said, BB/CA mode: Does it allow SS? Does it allow CV? Does it allow DD/CL?

NO.
So how the hell is it going to teach you GB tactics?

DURRRRRRRRRRRRRR
