I returned to the game in October last year and playing since. When I joined I realized that the gameplay for the Aircraft Carriers has changed significantly. Although I loved the original I don't mind this one. I have 2 complaints though. I waited since October's v0.8.8 release whether things will change but nothing happened in any of the 6 further releases (8.9, 8.10, 8.11, 9.0, 9.1, 9.2). So first problem is matchmaking. Today I played for 5 hours in Co-op. All battles without any bots on my side. Then I started to play with ACs. ALL players on my side were bots (screenshot1) - despite there were so many players online on WOWS-EU that I couldn't even start battle in first place (screenshot2). This wasn't the first time that I am the only human player. For this reason I play with ACs very rarely (and Murmansk too...). Please change the MM to have maximum 5 bots on player's side. It's a real struggle otherwise. Second problem is the XP in Co-op for ACs. It is really low compared to the work you have to put in. As an example (screenshot3) I played with 7 BOTs on my side and 1 human player. Fired 6 bombs (6 hits), 10 torpedoes (4hits) and 24 rockets (11hits). 37k damage and sunk 2 ships in a 10 minutes battle. Got only 191xp in Tier4. My average xp in Tier 4 (without ACs) is 272 (see calc.) and the average battletime is about 6 minutes. So basically I played 65% more for 40% less XP. You can do the calc yourself, it's just simply not rewarded well, especially if for the next tier you'll need 71k XP. Please change the XP to get more for ACs. It's a real struggle otherwise.
