I’ve got a list here for this albeit a tad late being mid year…
Lets start with this:
1,
• Proper naval classifications for all ships,Exhibit A: Which of these isn’t a frigate?
▪︎ Ayanami class Destroyer
▪︎ K class Sloop
▪︎ Project 1331M Small Anti-Submarine Ship/Corvette
▪︎ River class Frigate
If you chose the River class Frigate you’re dead wrong (btw why are the Tacoma class Frigate considered a frigate yet the very ship it’s based off a gunboat?
But from that list three of them are considered frigates an most blatantly the destroyer is somehow a frigate??? (but ohh it only has 3" guns, Well what would you consider a cruiser with only 3" guns? Huh Huh Huh)…
On a fun note, How can a Peacock class Corvette be a subchaser? When it doesn’t have any ASW equipment???
2,
• Ammunition costs,
▪︎ Either both tree branches are 1 sl per shell/ 30 sl per belt or all ships are from 45 sl per shell to 6700 sl per belt even the 12.7 mm AA belts.
▪︎ Even better maybe make ships that currently fire belts fire single shells as some ships strangely fire shell through belts even through not only do the xrays show a different feeding mechanisms but websites like navweaps mention how the systems a fed.
3,
• Either remerge the trees or the ability to research either tree.
▪︎ I’m no stranger to hating the split but enough is enough with the poxy research of some of the worst ships in game that had they been in the other tree they’d take less than an hour to research.
Either the trees are remerged which will annoy a few people or like they did recently with GF & helicopters but for NF & be it vice versa.
4,
• Now it’s unlikely but Coastal Defence Battleships for the coastal TT.
▪︎ Probably won’t happen but at least have the devs adding warships with a coastal prefix in their names to the coastal TT over sticking in bluewater ocean going warships (recent addition being the Buckley class DE, Hmm yes an escort ship that screened merchant ships like my grand grandfathers across the Atlanta ocean are totally Coastal warships).
▪︎ CDB, ain’t the only thing that could be added with the addition of monitors, Riverine Gunboats, Riverine paddlesteamers, Armstrong Flat Iron Gunboats (I long for the Castore class for Italy, a 500 ish tonne vessel with a 16" cannon).
5,
• Reduce the MM to at least 0.7
▪︎ We’ve got severe compression in this mode & the +1- MM is to much, yet we could probably trail a smaller MM number that would be a bloody boon to several warships.
6,
• Removal of rank based economics for certain ships that are down right useless for their ranks.
Exhibit A: Tacoma class Frigate, How the hell does it have such a high repair all while being such a dreadful ship to play, At least for one bloody month its cost was only 8k sl.
Still to much but better than what it was prior to that (54k sl) but now it’s (18.6k sl), At least in the old tree the terrible stuff had low repairs.
7,
• Reductions in Coastal TT costs for research & a Increase in the economy (if point 3 isn’t changed), How does a weak arse WWII ship cost as much as a F-16, UH-60, 11.7 MBT ALL WHILE FACING SUPERIOR & CHEAPER WARSHIP (3.3-4.7 BR bracket with both branches).
But yeah nothing in the Cost’all TT should be over 100k rp currently.
8,
•More squidron vessels.
▪︎ Currently there’s a cruiser, a destroyer & two SKR’s an we’ve yet to see another in like two years.
Hopefully with the launch of the french Cost’all TT in 2.39 they may get say a squidron frigate on launch.
There are more idea’s but I must be off.
