Issue:
Since we can’t support another ship CR until we aren’t being supported from another ships CR.
Seen many times in WS where ship 1 wants to CR support ship 2 but can’t because ship 1 is already being CR supported by ship 3 and ship 3 is AFK 4ever.
Resolution:
Would be amazing if we could stop another friendly ship from supporting our ships CR.

I’m of the opinion this is one small trade of for using the best ws weapon in the game. High cost high reward. Work together or fail

Maybe make it so that you can turn off receiving support if you want to
But till that makes it into the game, you can always move out of support range and then come back

This. I sometimes need to support someone just to keep my support lines clear from overenthusiastic teammates that can't fast forward and see I have scheduled an important support that they have inadvertently canceled.

that's just anti-cr nonsense, this actually ruins well made plans and removes agency from players.
proud kernel
when you leave any other activation/play in tm and don’t communicate the team is punished why should cr be the only exception?
ocean patrol
that's pretty poor analogy. cr is complex with its support links that no other weapon has. it doesn't have to frustrate what players hope to achieve just because you hate it.
proud kernel
Who said I hate it? I said it’s power should come with draw backs
ocean patrol
drawbacks are fine, but not this one
how about we make leap semi-random in an area because it has to come with drawbacks 😄
proud kernel
Ah yes ok let’s give cr an 8 hour target switch like leaps warmup that seems fair
I’m just saying if you can’t work as a team don’t use a mod that’s entire identity is supporting each other
ocean patrol
"let's make cr users miserable and keep the crt support bug while at it"
proud kernel
I agree the support bug needs fixed. I have taken to never putting support orders in tm I just set an alarm because they always fail
ocean patrol
let me put it this way:
this would be a QoL improvement for CR users - there's no legitimate reason to oppose it
proud kernel
There is legitimate reason you just don’t see it that way. That’s fine we can disagree

Yeah that’s exactly what I mean.
It’s just a nuisance really. To each their own. Agree to disagree.

The added function isn’t going to move mountains of added benefit for CR users. It’s just a nuisance. One that if mitigated wouldn’t change much.

It wouldn’t change anything for teams that are already well coordinated. It’ll change everything for teams who can’t work together

I do agree that CR is a BEAST in WS.
proud kernel
Only because of its range and switchability. Makes for quite stale gameplay. Would love to see other weapons make a comeback but that’s not gonna happen

Teams are not perfect and different people are online at different times, and that includes competitive ones. Making lives harder for CR users is not a good design goal.
Nerfing CR in some other way is probably needed however.
For example nerfing its base range from 160au to normal weapon range of 120au would make teaming up mandatory and increase margins of error where they could be caught out of position.
But not making it hard to coordinate, that's just malicious. Optimal use with CR switching is already difficult enough requiring 2-3 people to be online at the same time when a reaction to enemy action is needed.
proud kernel
The base range isn’t really the issue. Any weapons with extended range should be blockable like dart and rl are via barrier. Cr needs a counter that’s not more cr

nerfing it from 160->120au will impact the popularity of cr regardless
and make weapons like dart able to reach cr (though its not likely anyone will use dart)
and make cr support range fixed like 10au or something
proud kernel
No because still being able to boost each other gives the range back giving it’s ability back
wind locust
its a good nerf tho
cant think about better ideas
besides using fortify to buff range
and barrage buff range with more enemies
proud kernel
That’s why I think cr should boost all weapons range
wind locust
that would make cr entirely support module though
seems more like a combat support module than weapon at this point

True

just dont AFK linked to someone unless its fully needed. solves alot of problems.
