Volron Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 9 hours ago, Kynami said: Ease of monetization basically. They have a far easier time selling ships than core game play. Ships can be seen by other players than those that have them. Ships can be used across multiple modes. Meanwhile something like a new operation is only useful to a significantly smaller segment of the population who will even interact with it. And beyond that it doesn't directly improve sales, instead they have to monkey with things to attempt making a few options in the dub shop good picks within said content. But again even there they will only get sales from people who don't already have a good answer. Which leads right back to why their most common form of new content is ships to sell. I am fully aware that actual "product" translates to money, but I will still question it in this case. As I mentioned, I'm all for new shiny's that I can use in Op's, but if core gameplay is not addressed, there won't be a game to play. I've noted more and more Random players are showing up in Operations (easy to tell), so this is an indication of something that should be looked at, be it Random and/or Operations/Co-Op. If they had a brain, they would go about trying to "spice things up" without bringing in stupid homing torpedoes. They could revamp and/or create whole new Operations. Bring in new and exciting maps, make Ocean appear more often and at lower tiers, etc. All it all we could talk till we are blue in the face, ultimately it is their toy and they will do as they see fit. Let us hope they make the toy better sooner rather than later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe how much drivel is being expended on a nothing topic. Will anyone here buy this latest dreck design from Wedgie? 🤨 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you play a couple, playing a new one feels like 'more of the same' ... to a much higher degree than regular ships. I can't precisely tell why but that's how I feel about them. Honestly, I'd rather hybrids to be like they function in WoWs Legends. You get "airstrikes" that you can direct and also have COMPLETE CONTROL of the ship's main battery. You do NOT control the planes directly. It allows for a true hybrid gameplay of guns and plane attacks. : ) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, what would be the point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you kinda choose where they'll launch the torpedoes at a certain distance, and what direction. It's bit wonky in execution, but the concept is great for hybrid ships.

Selecting vector of attack is great, you can setup your own crossfire. Reads like a nice concept instead of losing control of your ship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah so RTS style attack, at least this is how I am reading it. I could definitely get behind an RTS style system for the Hybrids! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you can kinda choose where to place your planes for the attack run, yeah. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ability to readjust course and speed of your ship while "in the air", then "fire and forget". I doubt they'll try and burn the burnt braincells they have just trying to get this to work, sadly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
