Starting all over again ;)

Like others said. I will feel like your posts. And I really hope you never make a mk2.

 

That's just an artifact of a P2W game... it's been like that from the beginning. Those players will just move up quickly so you're not going to see them much.

 

Because there are so many mk6s at L11

 

Sorry, mate. Mk1 has too small amount of hp. I needed that Rare Big shield
But now the ship is really slow without turbo... Mortars make me scared, lol

 

Infamy 610.
No noticeable change in opponent levels.
Still can see some mk2s.
And still can see some 21-32 captain level players with mk4s ))

 

Yes, I understand that.
But recently I've seen a couple of ships with captain levels between 25 and 30, equipped with level 5 and 6 legendary weapon.
Payed or events?

 

That's why starting a BB career is a little interesting at this point... so easy to earn Epic/Legendary with new boats that that low levels are like the wild wild west. It would be interesting to start a new account like you are doing and see how the boat ends up after 1 month.

 

I have a guy in my guild that joined the game like a month ago and played events a ton (he did the most quests in our guild despite being the newest player).
He now has T3-4 epics, 2 leg ballparks and a leg blast cannon.

 

Haha.. that's what I expected. I'm confused why the Devs threw out a carefully designed progression system by making Epics and Legendaries as available to new boats as to NML. If you are a fan of progression, the whole game is a bit of a mess because of this. If you are a fan of getting all players on equal footing within a few months, it's a great idea. Pick your poison.

 

I'll keep posting

 

Well...
That's the difference already!

So far so good.
But infamy highly depends on my team, so it will be up-and-down all the time.
Made my own guild to get some benefits from guild raffle. This guild war I finished 4 quests: cannon dmg, blast cannon dmg, star hoarder, ship sinker. All from the "easy board", of course. They gave me 4k tokens, enough for 1 "spin" in the raffle, lol

 

Sooner or later I will get Epic cannon, so it will be tough choice. Either scrap rare cannon lvl 6 to get some blue parts for upgrades, or use it to evolve rare cannon lvl 10 to tier 2

 

Cannons are really good in early game, but if you invest too much into it you won’t be able to invest in other items.

 

Well... I don't have much choice now.
I have 1 epic weapon already - carronade. But with my current hp it is not possible to get to enemies that close

And, by my past experience, it is not so bad to scrap rare big torp lvl 50 or legendary napalm launcher or anything else, if I will get enough parts to upgrade more useful items for my setup

 

Looks like too much infamy for my ship level, lol.
But still have more than 3 days left...

 

I have pretty good records of my progress, because of my time on the forum.

This is the earliest picture I could find. It is from almost exactly 5 weeks after I started playing, which was around this time last year.

It would be interesting to compare/contrast with what it’s like to start the game now, and what your ship/inventory will look like after 5 weeks.

 

I'm curious about that too
But I would suggest to compare not only time, but also number of battles.
Pure time is ok for crew training (hence gaining captain levels), but number of battles can affect the amount of gold/sugar gained, crates opened, etc...

 

It looks like I started this thread on October 1st (at least in my time zone), so it will be easy to count weeks. Can make milestones every monday =)

 

Two turbos on a speeder... that's crazy!
