    That might be why carrier players come here complaining they are being reported for 'just playing carrier'. Maybe they didn't pull their weight in gold and are reported for playing carrier badly. ^^

    How to layer up your x2 Research for the Bureau

    He used fxp to research the entire line without buying any ship, reset it, did that a couple of times. After that he only has to buy, play and win each fxp ship once to get his 6x bonus per ship.

    The Smaland Dilemma

    Yep. I chose Hayate over Smalland. Random solo IJN performance for me personally so far below.

    Smaland

    Mine sailed into an island when he ran into me turning a corner and had his radar on cooldown
  8. At this point I just want my Benham. I was cheated out off it by a kiddy event I couldn't stand playing.

    Smaland

    I don't know why, but I only remember one encounter where I was deleted by a Smalland, guess my first encounter. After that I usually see them helpless in the second half of matches, struggeling to keep up a carry. I even pwned one in my Harugomo yesterday in a mid cap battle :o Beyond the 7,5 km radar which people will get to know sooner them later, is there anything she has that sets her apart in a positive light from the Halland?

    Wow. Ok. For your information, personal attacks and the likes are already moderated and bannable offenses. So if you have any issues with what people here say about your precious, you have tools at your disposal to get help if you feel personally wronged in some way. I'm sure moderators like @Excavatus can help you if needed.
  11. wtf. So I have up to 0.10.1 to obtain 1,8 M FXP, as I just have bought the Hayate last week. I thought they would move Hayate to coal actually because it is so UNPOPULAR. Just like they did with every bloody ship I bought for steel... <-- my life choices. Just out of curiousity, when is 0.10.1 expected to hit? EDIT <-- 3 months -- > EDIT

    What? You think that people criticizing your favorite toy should be silenced forcefully? How about and you use arguments instead? Forums are usually a place for public discussion.

    There are plenty of factors that can influence matches. Nobody is saying you haven't seen things, but the reasoning and conclusions about what you saw are case of interpretation and discussion. Statistics can help too. This is where experience can help the interpretation of a single observation. In your case: an anecdotal carrier player losing 14 planes to your 2 ships. While you might conclude combining AA is really powerful based on that anecdote, experienced players will tell us, it's not. He is simply bad at dodging flak clouds, from any number of ships most likely. Even if you had been alone. Same goes for blobbing up. Sometimes blobs win, but mostly they are causing team's to lose. Plenty of reasons for that, experience can help you understand why. So your observations aren't disputed, your conclusions, interpretations or arguments based on these observations might very well be.

    That's very nice of him/her to say, but all we need to do is look at is what WG has actually done in the past 2 years to address the issues they think are a problem. Action >> Words, right? Tweak AA a little. Tweak reticles a little. Tweak damage a little. Tweak concealment a little. Results: adding laughable fixes to the absurdity of the carrier rework. It's like taking asperin against a brain haemorrhage. It tells us WG as a company is pretty happy with the core of the rework (or in denial because of it's revenue), and doesn't understand why there are still so many complaints 2 years aftefr the introduction of The Great Headache. And then they release MVR and FDR. Sure. They are right on top of it

    CV isnt harder to learn. Their basic gameplay is surprisingly shallow. You over simplify. I played carriers right after the rework because I had no interest in being anyone's biatch while WG was trying to get to grips with the bloody mess they created. Ive played them for a few months and continue to hate their gameplay design. Their damage focused spam design is boring AF, they are shallow, too forgiving, monotone and dull. I find playing against them utterly boring too. And when I see low HP ships getting finished off by the zombiebrain level rocketplanes, or AP bombs wreck citadels or torpedoes dropped at battleships at point blank range while carrier hulls hump some stupid island or corner, I throw up a little. Every bloody time I see that BS happen. Hard to learn People have little interest in flying boring repetitive airplanes in a game focused on warships, and because WG simply sucks at designing planes gameplay, world of warplanes and carriers being case in point. Theres your reason for the 5%.

    NEW SKILLS: DD & CV

    Yeah, I'm thinking the same with the exception of DD's that already has crap conceilment like Marceau etc. I don't think I'd take it on the Daring?

    Exaggeration of radar uses

    I have Belfast, that has radar smoke and hydro. I'll make sure it'll be a more regular sight in the near future then! I have Flint too but it's been too long ago since I played it and am at my art studio so can't lookup if it has hydro next to smoke. Guess not?

    He probably slotted Fearless -10 reload + 5 detection Aaaaawww... Won't you miss us?

    IKR. I too am not often put into great difficulty by carriers, mainly because the players piloting them are mostly surprisingly bad. But I still can't stand the sight of these things, and I can't get myself to play them more then 1 or 2 rounds every other few weeks or so. I seriously dislike the reworked carriers in their core despite being sufficiently capable of playing DD's when carriers are around. I think DD's are now in a much better place when it comes to carriers. Cruisers not so much.

    Correct. I think it has hydro and torps? Not sure anymore...

    Thinking 'air superiority against the enemy carrier' is a thing is pretty cute. ^^ Suck it up or don't play it. Karma means very little EDIT: Also, it wouldn't hurt if you'd play some more low-mid tier cruiser and destroyers, as you mostly sail BB's and carriers. Those 2 classes are the least affected by the involuntary spotting by carriers f.e. Maybe that might help your understanding of the matter ;-)
