@bom... My chat is now working and so far as I know the problem is fixed(for everyone). If you're still having a problem please report it in "report a bug". That's what I did and it was handled quite quickly.

Haven't played yet, but I'm against it on principle. If it doesn't add anything to the game then it's useless.

I'd rather see the lag problem eliminated (ok even reduced a bit), a new ship, better balance on the online battles, better AI for computer controlled ships, something done to encourage fleets to get wofing, naming problems eliminated... take your pick from the suggestions forum.

I don't think any player ever asked for fireworks, camera shakes... what next? fading in and out of battles? some stupid fog? why not put some decorations like dolphins swimming around the ship; that would be nice (not).

 

Thank you for saying what is truly in my heart. Those words have always been inside me, I just wasn't sure how to get them out.

The only thing I might add is improved matchmaking (or any matchmaking).

@bom... Thanks for explaining what happened I Now understand your grief. That must have been frustrating as hell. 😞😞😞😞😞

After playing for about an hour I've decided that I really don't care for the game shaking thing. Just leave a quick note here saying whether you like it or not.

This isn't a real vote I just want to get a general idea of everyone's opinion.

Okay I have absolutely no access to my fleet chat. When I try to enter text nothing enters the room.

As well when I post a message in west chat (which still works), and then switch to Fleet chat, and then switch back to West Chat, my posted text in west chat has disappeared.

It seems to work with my second account 2diddy. However it doesn't work with my main account 1diddy?

Okay 2 hours later and the problem is fixed. Thank you! 👍😁😘

Lord.......

I agree that the shake effect is unnecessary and highly annoying.

I also agree with the chat text. I find that with all the different shapes and colors of the harbor behind the chat now it is hard to focus on the actual text. A return to having the background on the text would be welcome.

@Bom... I hardly ever play raid myself and haven't tried a game today. I am quite interested in what you have to say though so if you could be more specific please. 🤔

Finally.....Mr. Gorskov,

The game has broken my spirit a while ago. I only remain to help my fleet mates where I can and the wonderful people I've met in the Navy field community. If you were to leave I would understand (feeling the same as you) but be quite sad to see you go. We have had some great battles eh? It's people like you that make Navyfield bearable now, so please think twice before you leave. 😞

P.s. I forgot one thing,

The time in chat. A return to how old a text is (10 min) as opposed to the 24 hour clock (21:30) is much more preferable to me.

P.P.s.......ditsy Diddy lol

I noticed that the tabs are still dropping over top of the fleet chat. Why can't they move that to the right where there's a big old empty space?

Ok that's all I have to say now.

Yes, I really mean it....that's all.😁

...... Okay I lied.

After playing a few consecutive games the game Shake thing makes you feel a little nauseous. If it's just me fair enough, but if it's not it should be removed.

The lag is really bad and the game is crashing on a frequent basis (as many captains have complained). 

Time for someone to wave their magic wand. 🤔

Broke the streak, got 5 today lol. 🤬!

Hey guys let's start a contest!

Let's see how many days in a row someone can get one gold coin each day.

I'm at three!

😂😂😂

Stellar idea! Even putting the OvD Maps into wof would be quite entertaining I think.👍

Yo Joe.... Maybe this pain you're having with steel is a temporary thing. I don't know what Captain level you are or how your Harbor is progressing but by the time you upgrade your steel Depot to level 10 you will never have any problems with steel again. I upgraded my steel mill to level 12 solely for the reason of having something to spend my Steel on! 😂

P.s. remember you don't have to repair your ships after every battle. There will be no noticeable effect until your ship reaches 75% health.

I don't think you can go through an entire battle without taking at least one hit. Once you take a hit then you receive damage. 

I have finished battles where I was completely mauled and barely made it out alive. Upon returning to port my damage was maybe 4%- 5%. I think this is reasonable.

Try to think of it like this...... Any machine will receive "wear and tear" just by turning it on.😉

Ok issue resolved. It took 5 days, 4 emails(by two different people one with screenshots of receipts from Google Play) a post in the Forum, and a pm to Vinnson himself(still unread).

A lot of effort but my captain has his account back so I am happy. 😁

Ask him to send the e-mail from another account or if not possible to ask someone else to send the e-mail in his behalf. sometimes spam/junk filters filter out legit messages.

Tell him to avoid special characters in the subject as well - a common red flag

The total emails is now four. Two by the captain and two by me on his behalf. No special characters were used in the subject.

This doesn't work. One of my captains lost his account 4 days ago. Have sent three different emails with all pertinent information and have received no reply at all. 

Usually would give a thumbs-up to Navy field support as they have always served me well in the past. However I find that not receiving any response from them after 4 days to be very unprofessional.

If giving personal details before trying the game is mandatory it would deter many players (I know wouldn't be here).

Probably a little disclaimer in the Nation choose screen (where the Google and fb buttons are) will be better e.g. "Please login with G or fb to save game online"

Fair enough. The players need to understand what's at stake. They need to understand that they could reach level 92 and then have thier account "disappear" on them. It's a lot of time and potentially a lot of money to lose forever.

Yet another Captain has lost his account. Perhaps when a captain first starts the game and select thier first nation, and I mean as soon as the account is created, then the next page should be a prompt screen. All it needs to have is the Google and Facebook link with instructions that BEFORE they continue any further they must save their account to one of these.

I think this would save a lot of tragedies for players and a lot of extra work for the devs. 🤔

It would be just too simple to move it to the right. It doesn't need to be that big. 

So here's the story (again).....

The match begins 11v8. All DD, CL, CA and my level 92 carrier. Kind of like beginner wof but with a carrier thrown in. Anyways before my planes get back from their first sortie the game is 1v7 (what else is new). I tucked my carrier in behind the heavy guns and waited for the onslaught. It never came.

The only ship I saw was one lonely Destroyer hanging out at the edge of the capture Zone. Ever onwards I sent wave after wave of planes after it only to have this one Destroyer shoot down every single plane I have (Less Scouts because what's the point). One Destroyer effectively took out a level 92 aircraft carrier. I can only assume his six comrades were on the other side of the map laughing their asses off. 

So again..... Matchmaking sucks and they really need to address this.

Anti-aircraft needs to be corrected as it is just ridiculous. I don't think one Destroyer can really shoot down every plane a carrier has. (Pearl Harbor never would have happened)

So here's the story.....

A few times today playing my CV my Fighters would engage with enemy Fighters and they will battle amongst themselves as they do. Inevitably one of my teams destroyers will come up and try and shoot the enemy Fighters. In the process of doing this all aircraft were shot down including my Fighters.

I would have thought this not possible since they took out Friendly Fire yet it's happened a few times.

So my query to you my friends is..... Is friendly fire allowed with airplanes or is this a bug I should report. 🤔

Try manual aim.

I know it was fixed a patch or two ago but my submarine just caught fire underwater again. 😋

Is there any reason why the join great battle tab has to drop over top of the fleet chat button? There seems to be lots of space immediately to the right of it. Small thing, big issue, really annoying!

If Chat is working for you in west chat(and it is) it should be working for you in game. The tap for message button is always a dark gray for me but I have no problem sending messages. 

I don't think you're in a fleet yet so make sure you have selected either east or west chat button on top. If not then you were just talking to yourself 😂

Live and learn, at least now you understand. There is a lot of "waiting" time in Navy field and the game requires patience, resolve, and at times copious amounts of alcohol. (If you are of legal age).

The best I can do for you here is let you know what you will need for your final Harbor.

Command Center: LVL 12

Steel mill: LVL 10

Steel Depot: LVL 12

Oil refinery: LVL 10

Oil Depot: LVL 10

Communication and Defense command can be leveled up at your own pace depending on how much you want to play Harbor assault.

Good luck!😊

P.s.* remember the higher the building level the longer the waiting period to upgrade.*
