Ships 2.0 is it an improvement?

Absolute hate it.
Too much RNG dependent and everyone now runs the same ships only.
And mostly fight end after 30-60 seconds. More than 50% of fight it is not required to use the ultimate.
Booring as hell now.

Also funny that CG told they will not nerf any ships, but a lot has nerfed.

You must be on a newer shard. For ships 1.0, everyone on mature shards was running the exact same lineup, the fights went fast, and the ultimate was never used, let alone 50% of the time.

Funny thing is that most people are complaining about the fights taking longer now. And I've had more fights with both cap ships getting the ultimate out.

The fact that battles are taking longer would seem to indicate that CG didn't fully understand how their own game mode works, considering they shortened the timer and indicated that one of the goals if the rework was to shorten ship battle times.

So what do you think? Were they being disingenuous or do they not understand the game?
