Why don’t we have assault arcade for naval stuff? That would be a nice mode to grind new shells and modifications, plus gain some daily reward.
I was in a game last week with 1 player and 15 bots on each side. I’d say we’re basically there already.
Is it even possible?
try low-tier naval RB :) I was spading the new Russian 1.7 coastal at the time. The other guy killed the bots on his side faster than I killed the bots on my side, so he won :)
Considering how awful heli, ground and air PvE are? No. Just no. Naval needs to be reworked from the ground up gameplay wise. Plus like Bruce said, pretty much every single game is at least 30% bots (sometimes even 70%).
Every naval battle is fully of bots
Would you want to see 200 battleship aiming at you?
how about kekjin introducing submarines, get their pants shitted and turning it into naval PvE like helis
Perfectly it could be a bit different compared to other assault modes, would be nice to have something like a “dungeon”, where you advance on bots instead of them, like attack on some harbor (Valetta for example), there could be regular enemies (different vessels, coastal defenses) and “bosses”, some tough ships depending on br.
Depending on effectiveness some vessels could get higher chances to get air events like frigates, slow boats could get scouting.
Ah, yeah I remember something like that (2 or 4 real players per match) when I spaded MAS 441. Honestly for me it’s much better than waiting for ages for the battle, especially when I still get adequate reward for bots.
PS I only hate that they brought tough BBs bots into toptier (and they have some of the most annoying ships), spading a BB is a nightmare now.
The point being? Naval assault arcade would be fun. Waves of destroyers, cruisers, and battleships.
It gives every ship a purpose. Destroyers to fire their torpedos at battleships, battleships to nail cruisers into the water, cruisers to light battleships on fire.
that’s actually smth I would play for sure. And I’m sure a lot would too if it was not only naval but all modes. Sometimes I just don’t want any madness which PvP is about. But making some decent PvE WoW-like (Warcraft I mean) scenarios with advanced AI or even just scripting, or just overall well-thought-out design is not about this company. Perhaps it just doesn’t fill well in f2p business model idk. But on the other hand, the amount of premiums in heli PvE is huge, despite the mode itself is such a joke atleast from technical pov.
Cause it will strip some more players from PvP modes, which lead to disappointment those who don’t want to play PvE cause of less players in battles in the modes were games already not always full. I think more dispersion of the players in naval modes is not the best goal for the naval to be entertaining.
BTW. Naval EC already is more than PvE
