Twilight Battle is broken

[Kaiserliche_Marines]

You can see the problem in the picture.

The story is.... I just play with friend like normal.
They just camp at base inside the filth and spam ability to heal each other nonstop. Completely unkillable. and print the tons of massive XP and Money. It can not be accept. This is not a tactic. it's broken mechanic gameplay.

the true is those 2 DD they use ability to shoot their mate and heal them inside the filth. they play like this until game end.

WARGAMING PLEASE FIX THIS
if you want more information. i have replay and I am willing to cooperate fully.

InB4 someone says InB4 someone says you'll get banned for naming and shaming.

[Max_Battle]

But seriously.

Remove those names and report any concerns here:

Even legitimate concerns will get you banned for naming and shaming.

You can post names in the link I gave you as only you and mods can see it.

Thank you for the warning. i will edit ASAP

yeah the steel rat heal mechanic abuse has gone too far. i had the same match with a steel rat division doing the same thing in A10 last night. Needless to say i have reported that incident. Now lets see what WG actually do about it.

[Paladinum]

I don't know about you but I stopped playing Twilight Battles after 5 matches... Have some tech trees to grind.

The mechanics are cool and I know that WG may implement some of that into the game, as new Operations, game modes or even gimmicks for new ship lines.

 

And I thought Leviathan's "66.6 Sigma" consumable is OP.

12k xp. Da fuq.

I have a better idea. Fix the main game first before fixing these silly novelties.

*sigh*

I've said it before and I'll say it again... I think small events with funky looking ships are cool... for a moment...

And I looked up "real life scenarios" in WG forum history and found they are reticent to recreate actual engagements because people will favour one side (the example I read was in WoT where too many people tried to play Tiger Tanks or something in a "real world" scenario?)

But if WG put the effort into a Pearl Harbour scenario (not my favourite idea but I would play it) or an actual Hunt the Bismarck scenario to the extent that they have with the endless Halloween theme... I'm sure they could make it work.

I didn't come here to be an undead bote!

I came here to be a Montana or a Graf Spee or an Atago!

You just said what most competitive, seasoned, hardcore players been thinking about this game in the pass few years.
Nobody is confident about a "good change" though seeing that everything is all about money at this point.

I'm looking at you, lootboxes and all other form of broken ships that happens to be obtainable through these lootboxes.

Sorry for double post.

Seriously this is a fun mode, why are you people even complaining.
You can just stop playing if you hate it so much.

[LtDan_IceCream]

What’s a Twighlight battle?.....

[Sharr_Dextera]

It's just for fun, celebrating 2018 Halloween. Consider it like a tour into a haunted house.

They weren't doing anything illegal, were they?

Reading the thread, it seems they were "abusing" the game mechanics. So, no. They found a loophole in what is a new and complicated game mode and exploited it through cooperation. It's all within the rules, though I guess we can argue over whether it is "unsportmanlike" or not. (I imagine it falls under the same broad class of offense as "border humping".)

As a rule, I'm in favor of these more arcade-style game modes precisely because I don't have to play them (and don't). More casual players who like that kind of thing can put their time and effort there instead of the cluttering up the team rosters ranks in the more competitive modes.

They should of just disable consumables just like rasputin's 10s consumable when you're out in filth and be done with it. Seriously.

I noted all sorts of shenanigans going on in TBs, e.g. like the lop-sided balance where we had 3 Gouls and 2 Levs and Rasp, and they had 3 Steel Rats and they had 3 Vargs. I had something like a 8:1 loss rate because I lost most of my team in 5 minutes to YOLO, imbalance, and had idiot teammates thinking it funny to fire at me from behind and disappear into the filth. Also seems to be a dediated group farming massive XP through game mode exploits.

[icy_phoenix]

Just farm your fxp for upcoming ships while you can. Form a group yourselves if you have to.

Twilight battle, what twilight battle, seriously I go through 3 game and I went back to normal random, co-op or operation. Sure there is some fun actor in there, but its IMHO too far into the fantasy element vs the naval element that I enjoy. I had to agree, though the guys are all playing within the rule and exploit a mechanism, its not their fault the mechanism come to be its WG dev's inability to see this coming but then let's not be too hard o them. he think its cool to throw in some WOW and off the world mechanism onto the ships in a fantasy environment and may be it and think it can be a plus ut what it end up is this.

In any case this is going to go in the next patch ( or is it going to be the next to that ) so well if its broken, then do;t play it then

I agreed on that, really dont understand why some teammates like to shoot each other for no reason, starting match is fine but during battle, SERIOUSLY? Encountered most player who like to shoot each other are those who played DDs (May differs since this is my experience) i m glad that match end up in winning.

If it's a steel rat, they have a consumable that can heal you by shooting. The ship also has a consumable to buff the number of charges at the same time which leads to unlimited consumables with the right match-up(another Steel Rat) and such series of events leads to abuse within filth, and killed any chance of the current team for a good win. Especially if some of them were trying to complete win missions to get rasputin.
