Battleships

[mjolnir]

No I'm still not getting it... if I buy a BS and take it against another BS or Cruiser the learning curve will be just as steep.

Problem is that as a capship quite a lot of your fights are against smaller ships, and then you don't learn that much yes.

but then i really do wonder why we got quite some decent bomberpilots around - while ( as you pointed out ) 94% [ or quite many anyway - i was too lazy to make a search for your post ] of the warship players suck. ( which you wrote in another thread ) - that asks the question....

are only dumb people flying warships? or are they harder to learn....

Not "dumb" people, but people who want to take a shortcut.

They either

a) traded from zero to jump straight into a BS/Cruiser without any skill gained before

b) got a fighter/bomber and couldn't fly it properly, so they bought a capships thinking it would "help"

Buying a capship doesn't make you better by itself, you still need to learn.

I get this confirmed over and over again, most recently by a lot of people on the test server who basically never flew a capship before in their life, while they were above average fighter/bomber pilots.

Then they had to use a capship for testing and at once they were better in it than 90% of the capship pilots you see on the server.
