Scouts are an optional addition to your ship and happen to help your team, however,
NavyFIELD is based on people playing how they want to play.

Call me a selfish noob all you want, but, if they add this limitation to NF,
you would no longer be free to use whatever setup I want.

Think about it, making scouts required for full XP is as bad as saying: "There is a 40% XP penalty for not using your Commissar's "recommended" ammunition."

I am free to use whatever ammo I wish, it could be HHE for extra firepower, NHE for a balance, or LHE for range, its all my decision, and you can't tell me otherwise.

Go ahead lJ, Rehor, and the NF trolls of the world, tell me I'm wrong, my argument is invalid, incorrect, or plain stupid, but, don't expect me to be playing much more NF with you.

Thanks for NOT trolling.

You are just talking about BB's capable of running a scout right? I mean a CA might want to level crew considering they have a very limited number of slots able to level up sailors in.

Yes.

But when is there ever a setup where not carrying a scout provides any kind of advantage, never mind one worth losing the scout? If you want to make the alternative-playstyle argument, why not go after the rule about 11" guns on battleships? Way more restrictive than requiring a scout.


Agreed with the suggestion and will recc one of these days. Only I have this weird feeling it'd end up penalizing Soviet BB1s and Nelsons too.

And there would have to be something else for BB6s that don't necessarily care about exp. Like never letting a BB6 join a game without scouts loaded. But otherwise, reduce the exp if there's no scout on the ship and you instantly get rid of every scoutless BB in the game.

on the other hand i must agree with the free playing style of players.

but its just so iritating that ppl bbs and cvs don't want to work together at gbs it would make tis game alot more better.

maybe we have to wake ppl up on the hard way maybe not.

maybe this idea could be upposit like 15-20% + if you scout. so u Punisch nobody and they will be still free to do what ever they were doing before.

-Edit: i forgot about the ships who can't have scouts... dunno how to solve that

i agreed with that or in GBs BBs cant enter without scout

Not recc. I think selfish isnt what you put there. Its my ship, i ran it like i want it. If i want to put another crew there its my problem, if i dont want to put a scout and level a support sailor instead you cant force me. I think this isnt a good idea. I think selfish its what you are suggesting.
