    Heal not counting to damage anymore in guild quests must be a bug...this feature was really a big plus of the last update. For which quests can we contribute? Win x battles yes, collecting stars also. Heal x amount is ridiculous and always finished first on each board by one or two fixxers alone. Thats it? Slowly filling the other boat quests maybe? Our main job is to heal, making that count only indirectly by winning the battle in the end but with no quantitative contribution just feels wrong.

    It's a more simple math.

    Reality u might need a side boat or 2 for helping guild with quest.

    As a player once wrote me here. Dude. Play another boat.

    But in all seriousness.

    Fixers now won't die as quick because of flares not stacking.

    So you will still be a valuable fleet partner for your guild members. And they get the fleeted bonus from your contribution.

    Good morning, I am on an iPad. The App Store does not have the new patch yet. When will it be posted? I only have the option to “open” Battle Bay not update. Thanks.

    I dont get your point, we like to fill our role, i dont want to deal damage except maybe for a critical shot or lucky punch. I am fine with having ten times more healing than damage at the end of the fight. But if the 10 times healing doesnt count to anything that sucks... its the opposite way, this change will have the fixxers try to make more damage in order to contribute to guild progress.

    Lets keep the thread positive, constructive.
    No need to take it out on devs and players here if you got out of bed on the wrong side ;)

    Im happy to admit that Fixers were probably too good at questing before the patch (i.e. we do more healing+damage pr game than the average damage for other boats).
    However going back to the old system where healing is worthless (outside of 1 quest) is rough. Fixers average damage is nowhere near that of other boats. Reverting to healing being worthless seems like an overreaction.

    The correct choice if you want to help your guild is to never play Fixer once Fixer wins + protector is complete. Thats sad.

    Okay, so how about dual talent trees or something like that? Should we drive around with crew members not fitting to our ship and equipment?

    Ah okay, my bad. Basically it moves the joystick (temporarily) to anywhere you tap within a certain distance from the joystick. It allows you to make the joystick as small as you want while still being able to steer. Try tapping above the joystick with centralization on. :)

    This. Since my return to the game I've been hesitant to join a guild (even though I got offered a spot in one I like) because I know I'll be a burden for guild quests, because all I can (significantly) contribute to is healing + fixer win quests. Those are such a small part of the board and so easily cleared that me joining a guild would gain them nothing for quests. I hate that :(

    Huge buffs to fixer.
    Bolt removes stun, and heals.
    Flares no longer stack.
    Repair box crit working correctly
    Also DOT weapons hitting for full damage on TS is a huge plus.
    I think you just chose to ignore all the important changes.

    says the guy miss reading/interpretation of the post
    its not direct weapon dmg I'm speaking clearly! but for your small feeble mind ill simplify , because your world is happy and colorful , btw I want postcards
    if you could read past plain text and into the idea at hand, youl'd clearly understand I'm speaking of the quests counting for the fixers heals like they used to!
    its an obvious topic. if you cant see this take your own advice please and stop bashing those you don't know :) otherwise,
    shove off on a burning low hp speeder and SIP ! I don't need your approval to post here :)
    to further explain the post its about using the right tool for the job , liiike idk you using a enforcer to heal your team , its not gona go over well :)

    Youre forgetting the best one:
    No more vertical assist!

    And the worst:
    No more Fixers being quest champions

    I think maybe healing should count for damage quests but at a smaller rate.
    So instead of 100% of the healing applying to damage quests, maybe just half it to 50% etc. would have been more fair.

    They could have added a factor of 0.5 if the amount of healing is too high, something like that. If only weaponsquests are remaining and a different boat does not have that weapon, they just „do their thing“ and contribute at least 1-fold, not 10-fold. We „do our thing“ and contribute 0.

    Why change the Bay area? cant properly see ships or names. original sky view with zoom is better. or am i missing something?

    And most importantly, when will they remove those names of killed people from popping up in front of your target view? it's irritating when trying to target in life or death situation.
