Improved Naval EC as a permanently available mode for naval battles

[Zahltag]

@Khurt

this would immediately become a grind fest with people ignoring each other to farm bot, ground targets and so on

The current mode disproves that. Players target one another as much as they target AI.

@Khurt

I don’t understand how spawning futher aways will lead to more “reasonable travel times”. I agree that spawns are a bit too close rn, but i prefer this ways that cruising for 15 mins without events.

@Khurt

There’s nothing you can change to make a DD an opponent for a BB

False. More space means less player density, which would be a blessing in and of itself. It would allow smaller vessels to pick their fights or avoid too strong opponents if they are aware enough of their surroundings. And nobody said it will take 15 minutes. In EC you can pick how far away you want to spawn from the action.

@Khurt

mines will always be useless

As for mines, it would absolutely make them more viable. They will never be meta, but they might just become something players actually equip at all.

You completely shit on my idea without bringing any useful ideas to the table yourself and you flat out lie about the reality of the current naval mode.
You then have the nerve to legitimately make yourself sound like an expert (in the “well actually” sense) on things while stating information that is provably made up, like this:

In general FPS terms (which includes WT) objectives exist purely as points of interest to which players are drawn, forcing player interaction. In other words, they’re there because often in pure TDM people just “camp in corners” or otherwise don’t take the initiative to move, because there’s nothing motivating them to; defence inherently will have the advantage after all.

Luckily other players here have already explained how this and most other points of yours are lies and have nothing to do with the reality of ship gameplay in War Thunder or historical accuracy.

Your comment was the definition of unhelpful

Edit: Also if you think you were polite, I have news for you

Glad you like my suggestion! And yes, that’s about exactly how I imagine things to turn out ^^

Would love it, was super disappointed when I found out that I couldn’t access it anymore, current naval spawns are garbage designed by a chimp

My first post on the forums just to say yes I am begging for improved Naval EC.
I’m trying to grind through boats to take a break from ground and air and the game mode is what I struggle with the most. It just feels way less varied than Ground and Air matches, and any extra objectives or changes that could change that feel from game to game would be a big help.
