Developers must have taken our demand for more gold ships very seriously, judging by the fact that they released a 30 000 gold<\/strong> ship in the November update<\/a>, the USS Massachusetts<\/a>. Exhilarative! So, is the ship even worth it tho? I mean, you\u2019d expect a ship so expensive to live up to its price, right? Read on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mass is equipped with three missiles, two locked<\/strong> cannons, one locked<\/strong> grenade launcher, two torpedoes, three autocannons, and six AA. To be clear on paper, that is not a weak setup at all. It\u2019s just weak compared to its main competitor, the Pyotr Velikiy, which I’ve already written an article on<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I did a test of burst damage with both of these ships and posted it on YouTube, you can see it here<\/a>. It\u2019s a huge difference in favor of Pyotr, even though Massachusetts costs almost 3 times as much. Stupefying. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This, paired with its awful speed, mobility, and huge hitbox means this ship is really not a threat on the battlefield if you encounter someone who knows what they\u2019re doing or a stronger opponent such as Pyotr<\/a>, Yamato<\/a>, or Moscow<\/a>. However, because this is a review, I will tell you how to play it and what to equip it with for maximum efficiency. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
