Was hitting #1 everyday after working hard and spending money now they just negated all that, this ship Nerf is really really bad...
How? If you were running a meta fleet before (and at #1 you probably were), then you've still got the same ships everyone is using now....biggs/vader/tfp/slave1/etc
Because now that it's down to 3v3 the battles are even more RNG dependent! Before the update if i started a battle bad because of the RNG there was a greater chance to still turn the tides and win, but now after 2.0 if you start a battle bad (RNG) then you are pretty much dead!- I finally managed to break top 20 before the update and a day after the update I cant even break top 40. If I was losing entirely to strategy I'd be ok with that, but even when my Chimera is faster than an opponents they still get to let off "Strategic Dominance" before I do.
Fleet arena is basically "Whoever lets off Strategic Dominance or Imperial Assault first wins" and now that is never happening in my favor despite stats. Unless there is another factor that I'm unaware of. "Degs29;c-1558978" wrote:

Are you personally doing worse in fleet than you were doing before?
That question is probably interchangeable with the question in the poll and you'll get the same results.
Which spells out the problem with this "feedback" exactly.
Except that some of us are doing just as well if not better than before - but still don't enjoy the changes to the way it plays.
I used to have to fight back up from the 30s and 40s to get into the top 10. Since the update I haven't fallen lower than 24. Whether that means my team is that awesome on defense or that people simply aren't playing - I have no idea.
I do know that I don't need to refresh to hit top 10, which is good, because I have no interest in playing ships more than I absolutely feel is necessary since the update.
My feedback is not results based - it's experience based, because some of us actually enjoy playing the game."leef;c-1559132" wrote:

So you're saying you've come to realize you actually do like the update? =D
Lol. No - because I actually enjoyed playing fleet arena battles before the update. I didn't start playing two and a half years ago to collect pixel prizes. Like most people here, I started (and continue) to play because I wanted to play a Star Wars game with a little thought, strategy that was a fun way to spend time. Ship arena simply isn't as fun to play for me now.
That's part of the point. ;)- I like this update. There's more of an element of danger in these fights. Before I knew exactly what was going to happen, now I don't. And I had to think a bit more about which ship to bring in.
And I was finishing first both before and after, so nothing to do with that. I even fell farther today than ever before. That's ok. "TVF;c-1559240" wrote:

You do realize that this is basically another way of saying "before the was more strategy and now it's more random" right? I guess if "danger" of losing to randomness is your preference, that's cool. To each his own.
I don't recall more randomness being one of CG's goals for ships 2.0 - but I agree, they certainly achieved that. However, I don't believe many people were begging for more rng and less predictability in fleet battles.
I am going to continue to give it a try, as it appears that, for whatever reason, CG has decided to go the "more random danger/less predictable" route with fleet (as opposed to what the majority of players actually asked for). So I guess we're going to be stuck with this terrible unpredictable, rng "danger" -fest for a while.- No it doesn't mean it's random, it means I haven't figured out the strategy yet. You also cut out my next sentence, which added strategy and reduced RNG. But that's ok, I know that Ships 2.0 makes you grouchy. You do you.

Funny enough ships 2.0 achieved just that - more RNG and less strategy and my 50+ battles and numerous ship combos so far have proven that!"leef;c-1557670" wrote:

I think for a lot of people that will be how they look at this question.
For me, I am doing much better than I was before. Not that I wasn’t winning before, but I was also dropping way more than I would have liked. Now, not so much. I thought ships was pretty stale before. Every team was pretty much the same. Now, at least while everyone figures out what to run, I’m facing new teams. I’ve lost relatively few matches compared to others. For the first time in a long time, I’ve actually spent money on ships and would be willing to spend more. I’ve spent more time theory crafting ships in the past few days than I have in the past year.
I could keep going, but all in all, for me the positives far outweigh the negatives in ships 2.0."dimi4a;c-1559876" wrote:

What strategy was there before? Literally, every match was the same. I personally was on autopilot every single match I played.
Every! Single! Match!
Now, you have to think things through. I don’t know about you, but I read through abilities before I did anything. I refreshed a lot the first couple of days. I tried out different comps and then used different capital ships. I’m still not set on who I want to use. There’s more strategy in ships now than there ever was. Maybe the problem isn’t the update.
