Pros
Pro Expanded gameplay with a ship maker program that is built into the game
Battleships Forever used to have a large cult behind it, due to people being able to create their own fleets and scenarios.
Pro Balances defensive and offensive tactics well
The beginning of the game requires the user to think on where they want to place ships in order to provide defensive as well as offensive ships. From there they are tasked with maneuvering in reaction to enemy ships in order to gain control of a map. It is through balance and forethought that the player will be able to obtain this.
Pro Runs well even on weaker hardware
Pro Engaging and motivated community
Teeworlds' one-of-a-kind community is the thing keeping the game alive. Be it the community servers or maps or all the other innovative content.
Pro Easy to pick up but hard to master
You will never stop learning new tricks while playing Teeworlds, no matter how long you play. At the same time it's easy for new players to just pick it up and have a blast.
Pro Available from Steam and in Linux distributions
So it's easy to play cross-platform with friends.
Pro Tons of mods and maps
Pro Very fun and engaging gameplay
Even at relatively low skill levels the game is a lot of fun - think Worms in Realtime! The antics you can get up to while "hooking" yourself around maps is just silly :P.
Pro Very pretty
Pro Very intuitive
Easy to install and use.
Pro Usually populated servers
Cons
Con The game isn't, and never will be, finished
Battleships Forever was big in its time, but that time has passed and its developers have moved on with their lives, as has its community. The final two missions of the game do not exist, occasional game-breaking bugs exist, and other issues exist that will probably never be fixed. While the game is fun and has infinite potential with custom made ships, it will never be complete.
Con Weird net-code
Even though the game is playable without issues and characters move like they should, they don't register enemies' mouse movements really well. Because of that, it's hard to tell apart who is a spinbotter and who's a legit pro player.
