The sluggish feeling while turning of every ship that is not a snub in this patch is a huge turnoff. It’s by far the worst change. However,
Since I am a battleship main I can speak on it a little.
vs Cruisers and Battlecruisers they seem fine, although being able to CD missles still is lame, as missles are a stated counter to them for battleships. Where did Nightmares go anyway?
vs gunboats … its a travesty. We have battle razors but the turret turns SO ridiculously slow its the most frustrating experience. A gunboat should not be able to get within 250m of a BR equipped BS and not get zonked but they can literally out turn the turret lol. Solaris do ok against gunboat hulls.
Vs bombers: not enough information for me personally to comment though the fact that dual gattlings got moved to secondaries might help a bit against them and that bombers seem to have been overnerfed.
Vs other battleships:
The worst part - both sit at 0 core flinging primaries/cerberus/thumper at eachother until the (usually lighter) battleship dies. I fully understand that light battleship “boxing” was annoying and needed fixing to help heavier BS but the manuverability is completely zapped. It becomes a close range slugfest super quick.
I really much preferred the last patch, even if cruisers were cracked and bombers were slightly too good.
