Naval mode is finally dead

I love your attention to details and how you pick what to answer so it will support your narative!!!
Blue is your own team so we won but it seems everyone else din’t had our strategic mind.
By the way, was this happening before your adored change with aiming?
Don’t answer, NO it wasn’t.

Nop, I am the one who
1.spawn with Flank Speed
2.moving towards a beach
3.imposible to maneuver
4.immediately under fire from oposite spawn!!

I am not at your level man, I haven’t unlocked the crew ability to phase throught the island.

cheers

Yes it was i always kill those easy targets, and those who play dumb. Before patch, after no matter.

They took your turn? They took your smokes? They took your guns to fire the Arras guns?

When they wanted to implement changes for tanks thay had a survey so everyone could vote.
On this case they just made the changes and dare to say just ghosted us.

Yes you don’t have time to turn.
They can shoot throught smokes and you know it, don’t pretent you don’t!
What can disable the Arras in the 5~7sec I had?

Not with laser guided accuracy,.
You were just exploiting a bad map design, it was bad before but now it is complety broken.
I guess with your skill you would farm 20+ kills?
Yea that is fun, for you!

I’m someone that played mostly air and ground. Started to get into naval a few months ago. I stick to mostly naval AB. Right when I started to get used to the old AB aiming system, they changed it. I wasn’t a fan of the new one at first, but I’ve gotten used to it. With the old system, if you attempted to move or change your heading it would completely mess up your range with the enemy ships. It would promote more of a slower gameplay. Now that the computer does all the aiming for you, its much better to move around and maneuver constantly. I see people sailing in a straight line getting absolutely demolished, while people that are constantly turning are dodging enemy shells.

AA definitely needs to be toned down. These ships were designed to fire at multiple aircraft. One single plane has no chance. They need to continue to add more ships. Lastly they need to add more game modes.

prefer playing coastal, Misqueued into naval AB,
Yeah, it seems naval AB is dead.

I can agree that the new aim system is easier to shoot.
But it is just way too easy.

Coastal was dead long ago since they became ‘spamming autocannon for 1sec TTK’ meta after ‘Danger Zone’ update.

And, This new aim system is pouring salt into the grave.
If I want to play ‘han-shot-first’ simulator with laser beams which the’ first shooter always wins’
I would rather just install COD instead.

This is one of my biggest issues. It was so rudely and abruptly done, with no warning. It completely destroys the game play for those of us with hundreds if not thousands of hours. And it’s done for WHOSE benefit?

Like… the gameplay is so terrible now. How could you just, do something this radical without questions from the community or phasing things in? It’s bonkers

There was warning and several opportunities to test it - this was originally published March 1, 2 weeks before the update became live.

the Dev server was open at least twice in that 2 weeks IIRC

Note that this text is black - so it was never changed from the initial publishing of the changelog - ie it was there at the beginning, and remained there for the period of testing.

I am starting to think the aiming is secretly random because it is supposed to be “point and shoot” yet I can point at the same spot for 10 shots and it is left, then right, then under then over and RANDOM AF.

Meanwhile I am getting one shotted all the time.

Am I penalized?

I would hit every shot with the old system.
Now it has to be random.

I sorta Play Naval. I got a different Torpedo Boat from what i was researching and the Torpedo Boat was from a different Tech Tree.

yes it was mentioned in the changelog - but not for testing (this would include any reaction from GJ) - we all know that the comments on the the aimbot were mostly negative from the start of the dev-server.

The comment I was replying to said there was “no warning” - clearly there was “warning”, and obviously it was tested since there were comments about it - wtf r u on about??.

Gaijin doesn’t have to accept any specific idea for change - they are the one man and they have the one vote, and clearly their idea for the game differs from the people who don’t like it.

No idea why people think they would ignore the comments during testing but change their minds afterwards.

ETA: Flagged - Seems someone doen’t like being reminded of the facts how the world actually works!!

Actually this is for testing staff like game behavior, client stabily, etc, trying to the LAB before you pass to live.
This is by far asking the community opinion.

True but it’s like the decline of the Battle Passes, if people don’t like they will not buy,their loss.

Same, I’m actually really enjoying it now and there is a bit of thought having to go into how not get destroyed easily.

Also I’m finding with coastal I can take out those pr206 a lot easier now, I can actually aim for their guns and do something whereas before I’d have to get the aiming sorted and then… die to their ridiculous auto cannons in seconds. It’s brought some balance of a kind to coastal at least

And yeah I find I get ammo racked way easier by some level 5 noob, but I’m also doing the same to everyone else too. I’m finding it way better than prior to the update tbh too

I accept this point - but there is also the counterexample “turret baskets” where @Smin1080p_WT very detailed explained their ideas and motivation to implement this change - due to feedback on the dev-server!
Nearly all of us naval players would still very appreciate some kind of statement from GJ to the aimbot-update. In any kind of business customers would not be amused if they got no reaction to their critics on changes in products or services.
