    Right; but that HP gain is not tied to firebomb. Any other setup gets the same boost on shooter and the same limited boost on enfo. The item itself was nerfed more as a % of stats before the update. Total boat setup, that’s a different conversation.

    Either way, it doesn’t seem to have been the end of either firebombs or enfos in game play - have seen plenty of both since the changes.

    As if you were confident with the update (or are you? [Nem hinném] )

    Would be great to have a “translate” button in the forums. I’m too lazy to copy and paste into Google Translate just to learn that the conversation has nothing to do with me. Clicking a button to learn that is about the level of effort I can muster.

    1. You don't speak for the mods.

    2. There was NO ONE doing the job before, so no one was fired.

    3. MODs don't work fulltime. They cannot possibly measure how to pay one.

    4. As a MOD (on leave) and an MVP before that(we were basically forum mods, again, I'm on leave from the post), I can say that I love the job enough to do it for free. It's satisfying, and I have a personal interest in keeping my neighborhood free from namecalling and hate speech. Why don't you ask the other mods why they do what they do?

    I would still prefer a translate button so that you can write in which ever language you are most comfortable. The game is international. Probably lots of people not joining the forum conversations because they aren’t comfortable with English. I’ve played other games with translation built in. Not perfect but mostly people get the idea. Stronger community = stronger game.
    I stand by my original comment: I am lazy :)

    What makes no sense to me is that they increased the power of the weapons and then downgraded ships defense. How does that make the game more enjoyable? I'm at about 10 matches a day. That's down from about 30 matches a day, because the game is beginning to suck something terrible!

    On top of that, I've been playing this game for well over a year and I'm still getting multiple uncommon and common powercells daily. Why would I need anything uncommon or common with an infamy of 3500? I could use some epic powercells though. You know ..... the ones that you give out 1 per week....smh

    I agree with all the content and complaints people are saying you should focus on fixing the problems everyone's are saying first before adding more content.if you can't fix these problems you're going to keep getting complaints. you should first focus on patching all the complaintsn.stop adding more if u can't even keep up with you complaints and fix this first I can move up in ladder because all hear complaints are real and make it hard to get here legue

    I agree, we need an update like the "From Battle Bay With Love" update that focuses more on fixes and quality of life improvements. We need this, we've had some HUGE changes to the game, it's time to let us adapt and fix what needs fixing.

    When I first started playing nearly 2 years ago, I had no complaints. I simply grinded hard on a daily basis to level up my ships and to collect new items. For the first 8 months, absolutely no complaints. I worked my butt off to earn resources and leveled up all my ships. I even watched my captains level increase and enjoyed receiving the reward at each new captain level. I also enjoyed collecting the rare items and upgrading them to level 5. Lastly, I didnt mind the grind because I also saw my infamy increasing as well. There was a lot to look forward to, and there were attainable goals that I could reach with reasonable effort.

    Now, all of that has changed. I've been at captain's level 50 for months now, which is the max level, so guess what.... increasing captains level is something I can no longer look forward to. Also, there is no longer a reward to look forward to for increasing captains level.

    After a year of playing, I realized how long it was going to take to find and upgrade epic items. It was a year and a few months before I could get my epic items to level 3 and even a few more months to finally get them to level 5. So guess what, I nearly lost interest in the game because it took months to upgrade a single epic item to level 5. I haven't and will not mention legendary items. Let's just say that I didnt have one until they were made available through achievements.

    Next is the powercells issue. A year ago when I had all rare weapons, I would still look forward to playing the game, because I could still earn a few rare powercells each day. Once I got a few epic weapons and depleted my collection of epic powercells that took me more than a year to acquire, I soon realized that I was screwed. Guess what, I could no longer look forward to upgrading my weapons anymore, because if I'm lucky, I might earn 6 or 7 epic powercells after a week of play, which is simply ridiculous.

    Now once a player has become a veteran and played for more than a year, there's almost nothing to look forward to. The only thing a player can do at this point is wish that you would stop being so stingy with epic powercells so we can upgrade the epic items that we've spent so many hours trying to collect. You're asking for a lot of commitment when you want your gaming community to flourish, but as time goes on, players have less and less to look forward to. So people like me who have been around for 2 years slowly become frustrated and lose interest. The only thing that keeps me playing (which is a lot less these days) is the fact that I enjoy my guildmates. But that won't be enough to keep me playing when there's nothing else to look forward to.

    Look at all the useless items that I have in my inventory, because 2 years later you continue to give me uncommon and common powercells as though I haven't upgraded any of my items. That makes no sense. The rewards that I receive should not be the same exact rewards you see fit for a new player that's just starting out. Seriously..... look at my inventory.

    What's enjoyable about knowing that I will have to play at least a month or more just to upgrade one epic item from level 4 to level 5? I do appreciate the new ships, but geez, how long will it take me to get those leveled up enough to use against the NML players that I'm always up against? Personally, I can't afford to pay hundreds of dollars to upgrade ships.

    This is a spot-on description of the current state of the game. The 4.0 upgrade was a means to slow the sloth-like progress even further, removing all event rewards, increasing training time, increasing ship upgrade time and resources, while giving nothing in return. The core of the problem remains very simple: lack of a progressive rewards system.

    PS: Max Captain isn't actually max, it just means months more training with no further progress rewards.

    Every time they do something that everyone enjoys, like event rewards, they seem to think they are giving too much stuff away and proceed to strip the rewards down until their back to being useless like every other set of rewards

    Those moves are stunts to bring back player who got demoralized, bored and quitted the game. After some time when they see almost are back they again remove those rewards.
