More ranting about the community, because I'm not done yet: A certain very vocal minority(Though this could apply to War Thunder as a whole).

I'm not going to gatekeep naval forces "hur, you can only complain about naval if you've played it for 300 hours and have slit your wrists at least 12 times," but at least have some in-depth experience with it before complaining. But apparently not those naval-haters! Some may have played naval, but generally for about 1 or 2 matches, before leaving and going to complain on reddit. I have no top tier tanks, so I would never have any authority to complain about them. They see some negative comments on reddit, or maybe watch napalmratte rant for 10 minutes, and *boom* suddenly they're an expert on the subject. Many people having never actually played naval forces. If you are stuck with the Clemson, or the Frunze, or the Omahas, then all you can do is sit there and be the free RP and SL pinatas to Helenas and Sumners.Ī terrible, terrible community: That's right! This is your fault too! People constantly complain and bash naval forces. If they don't have any meta ships? Well then tough luck, drop back down to a BR where you do, and grind with that. People are forced to play completely meta ships, or else they become completely worthless. Rigid meta and BR structure: This goes hand-in-hand with over compression. And top tier heavy cruisers cost more RP than a 10.0 tank, and quite a bit more SL. Very poor economy: A 12 kill game in naval earns you about the same SL as a 3 or 4 kill game of air RB, or a 6 kill game of tank RB. Just 15 BRs for 7 boat classes, and at top to mid tiers, you really start to feel it. Over compression of BRs: Over compression is present in all game modes, but I think it's especially prevalent in Naval.

Here are some of the biggest issues I have with naval I'm sick and tired of naval being constantly and relentlessly bashed by everyone, whether or not they actually play it. That's right! We do exist! And goddamn, am I going to tell people about it!
