For the hundredth time, no. I do not enjoy playing Realistic. On any game mode: air, land, or sea. So again, no. I will not; it’s that simple 😉

The only use for that is to be an extra ammo rack for opponent to shoot at, simple as.
Yeah, this is gunna be a literal powder keg
I too enjoy Arcade mode a lot more than RB(overall), BUT . . . once I got the aiming in RB naval down(set distance correction to MMB/scroll wheel) everything changed.
It was like magic was bestowed upon me.
Of the 3 vehicle types, the difference between AB & RB is the least different in naval. Both modes are relatively slow(Coastal can be speedy) but the differential is slight compared to tanks & planes.
It took just a short while to adapt to the new aiming, and once I was comfortable with it, everything changed for me. I now play RB for naval and enjoy it a good deal.
With that aiming you get a lot closer to the old Arcade aiming, just different reticle looks and more accuracy. And you get to lead and adjust for enemy ship movements and it is quite a bit more fun than any naval I played in the past.
I would just suggest giving that part a try, see if you can get accustomed to the aiming and not just give up on naval.
Just my opinion, but as a long time Arcade player, I was able to make the transition easy enough.
I for one do not think one mode is any better than the other, not elitism here.
Just seems like people should play what they enjoy . . . it’s a game, have fun.
There are a LOT of options and things to do . . . give it a try, if you still don’t like it, at least you know what is available . . . things may change in the future . . who knows?

I can play Realistic very well, very capably. I am good to very good with Naval Realistic Aiming. The problem is I just do not enjoy playing modes without markers. Blah blah blah people will say “oh but you can click and MAKE it a marker in Air and Naval!” No, its not the same. I have to squint at pixels for most of the match and spend most of my time looking around with my single pair of eyeballs when in “Real life” there would be multiple crew members (as in a ground unit) or HUNDREDS of pairs of eyes in a naval battle. Even in an air battle in real life, there are friendly air units helping, and radar assisting you to find enemies.
Forcing me to use my single pair of eyeballs, on a computer screen with a narrow field of view, with a relatively low resolution compared to the human eyeball Is NOT “Realistic” (even 4k is PATHETIC compared to our eyes in real life)
SO, in my very honest opinion, “Realistic” modes are NOT realistic. They are a fantasy where you are playing a digital version of Pin the Tail on the Donkey. I do not enjoy it. Period, never have, never will.
IF they had a mode where the performance of the vehicles was set to “Realistic” conditions, BUT kept the markers from Arcade, that would be all that I would play. IE, the way Ground RB used to be before they ruined it with this unrealistic eyes closed nonsense.
Current “Realistic” should be SIm, and realistic should be with the nerfed/realistic vehicle performance, but with “arcade” markers.
I am beyond fatigued with most people saying on repeat “dur hur hur, just play Realistic!!!” No, I will not. I will not play something I simply do not enjoy. It has nothing to do with my skill, or understanding of the mode. I simply do not enjoy it. So, I will simply not play it. Which again, for the 100th time means Naval is ruined for me. That is it. The hundreds of $'s I spend, and hours I put in grinding are worthless for me now in Naval. Thanks @ Team.
Cheers.
PS:
And of note, they wont even give me the ability to use the old aiming system! WHY NOT??? Everyone “thinks” that I would be at a disadvantage, so, what is the point of forcing me to use this HORRID arcade aiming system if you think I wouldn’t even have an advantage by using the old system??? It makes no sense! OR just let me use Realistic Aiming that they disabled for Naval Arcade. Absolutely mind boggling how much they ruined it, without even giving us old players any options to use the old system.
Time and money wasted below. I am still deeply offended by how everyone associated with the Company has ignored me and the others who detest the change to aiming. Especially with how much money I threw at Naval to support a mode that I loved, before they completely ruined it for me:
I even purchased these two vehicles that I had missed on the Marketplace to use in my Naval lineups. I will probably never use them now:

where you the one who purchased it for 250 or 300. I saw an order a month or 2 ago but bots kept increasing the price by 0.01 so i refused to sell. Anytime i see that degenerate behaviour i neither buy or sell the item out of spite to the people who use bots

What about the SL gains? They are better in RB… But I suppose that’s not enough to overcome your lack of enjoyment in this mode (I had to ask, since I saw your post numerous times).
I suppose your best hope is a new “Roadmap” if you want the changes to be reverted.

actually less due to general slowness

Yes, for sure the SL %'s are amazing in NRB, but even when I try to play RB’s (and focus on trying to play well) I still only make a fraction of what I can make in Arcade per hour. I could make hundreds of thousands of SL’s per match in NAB before, even in a 10-15 min match. And easily get over 1m SL’s/hour in NAB. I used to exclusively use all of my SL boosters in NAB, have had numerous 1m+ SL single matches in NAB, with my premium botes+premium time+those SL boosters.
I try to always state that it is my issue/dislike of RB modes that is the issue. For many players RB modes are not only more fun, but more rewarding per hour SL+RP wise. Just not for me.
Some stats for my Arcade SL/Game stats below. I made more in even my “bad” botes, than I did in my best tonks. Even botes that I played very little/was not “good” with, I still made more per game vs my best tonks. And this is overall/average SL’s/Game, many games were much higher in a single match in my fav/best botes. My best SL/Game tonks don’t even show up till quite a ways down the list compared to my botes:

Im not too sure, but heres the same camo from in game used on the Akitsushima
I have to credit u/Kanyiko on reddit for the information, i dont know much about naval apart from the names of a few famous ships

That’s the fun part
It was never used on anything except Akitsushima. And we don’t have it in game. This camo is tender-specific for seaplane carrier
Something close to it in size is Shimakase, but she already has this camo
Shisaka is much smaller and never used this camo
