Some amount of timers, why not. Brackets. Yes please. More BRs allowed. why tf not. Matches start with less players? Yes please. More join later anyhow. Enemies detected, sure. Could deal with a scouting mechanic, but that doesnt make or brake the mode, could be good. Maybe more for arcade but whatever.
Spawn point system removed? WTF why? The rework where you could barely earn SP points killing ships multiple BRS lower than you already took care of making sealclubbing destroyers endlessly to earn enough sp to respawn your sojuz or iowa 5 times an absolute killswitch for any match already… Endless slugfest of the same 2 ships over and over again for 2.5 hours straight incoming…
Bots added…dafuq??? i mean yeah if matches “need” to start with 4 players maybe, for match start…but after that?
You mean in relation to bots? Nothing mentions bots there…pls no abandoned 4 player ec matches on 100x100 km naval ec maps just for the sake of “shorter queue times” and 30 matches running at once instead of 3.
Dislike the addition of BR matchmaking and removal of spawn points for naval EC, there’s no reason to play anything other than your biggest ship now, I enjoyed there being a variety of ship classes in play and working your way up to the bigger ones, it’s essentially removed everything unique about EC, now it’s just big regular naval AB/RB.
second one could still be a good match first one though. Lol. I bet that wasnt tiring af and you didnt beach yourself by falling asleep. Genious move by his excellency the snail to remove botting accounts and then turning all of us into bots. You gotta be impersonating a bot to be grinding and spading in heli ec…now this. eff yeah man
I left early since I was just checking the new changes, but yeah in the match with only two players I had my Roma lineup and literally every single bot spawned in with a battleship at the start
i mean they pose no threat unless the ai was changed since i last faced them (luckily its been years. im so blessed.) But they also dont pose any threat, they are just punching bags.
EC is not the mode to grind. It doesnt have to be, it shouldnt be. It shines because it isnt. You bring a lineup, you can see all kinds of ships, jets and bombers and so many of them can be viable in their own way. Destroyers and coastals even distract battleships and make them waste time and ammo. Bombers and jets can end matches if unaccounted for. Heavy cruisers can get lucky and make a quick dash over the english channel with their good top speed and suddenly cap a british port and no one saw them for half an hour. Now you have the enemy team spawning there trying to sweep along the coast. I even had a match where one epic lunatic pulled that off in a imperatitsya mariya with like 35 kph max speed. Straight across, right in the middle of the map. 0 fowks given. Nerves and stamina of pure stalinium. The absolute Legend. My children will hear of his accomplishments at least once a week. Just sailed his slow af dreadnought 30 km in broad daylight over there, landed, took posession of a harbor and brought them russian cuisine. Over from france…eh somethign like that is how that story goes.
Now its whos got more soyuz/iowa and whos more willing to bingespam them. Why. the fawk man. Everything unique about it will be gone.
Yeah, hell it even allowed non meta ships to have a place in it, I loved countering PT boats with my Saetta or actually having an advantage with Roma haha. Now it’s just a big match with timers
