You just slave them to the carrier leader group leader while watching the the battle in 1/10th time dilation for the next 6 hours...

I do sometimes outlandish comparisons but comparing WW2 Carrier to Carrier from the year 23.236 A.D.

Money well spent then...?

This actually looks somewhat pretty, like sailing on Mars...

Well... Sofar I grinded everything + the free air drop crate + them air drops from the Exeter missions (I know, I know I said I'll never buy again from Wargaming after Puke of Dork... Shame on me)... Summs up to: Got HMS Herpes (I'll steal that @Saiyko) since March 2nd (meh boat, slow planes and low DmG) and since Friday (March 8th) Furious, which I quite like sofar. If my math isn't complitly off, I'll sit at the end of the "event" on 1/2 of the 2500 for Tier VIII but I won't buy the overpriced lootboxes... You'll get stuff only 3 of the 4 weeks, right? *edit* <- Really???? [Edit]: And ofc no missions for other ships from the loot boxes! Because it's me after all.

дава́й !

Well, I did not try sofar as nobody from the dev team came foward but... I already fullfill one important criteria for a game developer: I actually play the f*cking game!

Stealth nerf to promote the upcoming russian Battleship line with their Cruiser accuaracy on 12km and below?

Implementing something that is currently still in pre-alpha testing and is weekly "patched"? What happened? Was Wargaming bought by Acme Co.?

I think, all boiled down to the lowest common deminor, that most people who complain about CVs (myself included) ist that were hoping for a better accessibility to Carrier while still beeing usefull to the team. I really enjoyed Carrier pre rework (but after the change that removed manual drops in low tiers), back when I still played PvP, but only played Tier IV and V in randoms because I knew I wouldn't help my team much from Tier VI on - and for the short amount of time I think I did my part, not saying I was ever "purple" or anything. I even played a few games in Hermes in random (mostly because I had an old mission still open which only was doable in PvP - yes, I even trained beforehand in Co-Op aswell as in the training room) and yeah...

That's the problem (for the consumer), when you have a monopol on something like wargaming has: The company dosn't makes more profit by creating better products. So they don't.

Wasn't the rework, besides to make Carrier console friendly, to narrow the already existig skill gap? @MrConway

Sadly it ain't that easy to dismiss. While it is true that TX Carrier were and probably still are somewhat overpowered (don't really have an oppinion on that since I never played TX Carrier) - lower Tier Carrier are...well sh*t. You don't have to take my word for it, as I'am not "the Carrier player" just look at them numbers sofar: In IV, VI and VIII every Carrier sofar is worse of now than before 0.8.0 - Yes, there are exceptions: Ranger on VI is on the same LvL as Indipendence was but on the other hand, it's a downtiered ship and on VIII Graf Zeppelin is also still more or less the same but that's it. Yes, comparing millions of battles against only a few hundred thousands isn't the "real thing" either but the trend is there and will probably stay. https://wows-numbers.com/ships/compare/?type=air_carrier&amp;tier=4 https://wows-numbers.com/ships/compare/?type=air_carrier&amp;tier=6 https://wows-numbers.com/ships/compare/?type=air_carrier&amp;tier=8 But even the TX number sofar don't look as good as before the patch... https://wows-numbers.com/ships/compare/?type=air_carrier&amp;tier=10
