    How would you improve the skill of player base?

    Punish them harder in terms of economy. - move away from damage and increase the reward for teamplay actions (spotting, tanking, capping etc.) - introduce scoring zones - double the service costs if the player has spent over 80% of his active playing time in a low scoring zone, which should be located in typical camping spots away from objectives (exception should be made for the physical hull of CVs, instead punish CVs equally if their planes spent over 80% of their flying time in low scoring zones) This way a bad player will have trouble even sustaining mid tier or premium ships if he is incapable of playing this game correctly.

    2-4 ships is now a big cluster. Go figure. But if you don't want to play with your team, you can alternatively play a single dedicated counter that projects a magical forcefield spanning 12-17km that obliterates any plane staying in it for over 5 seconds.

    Yeah, yeah, I'll keep that in mind next time when I project an over 16km bubble of air denial and wipe entire squads in my Minotaur without even trying. Or wipe out entire strikes in my Gearing. Or my DM. Or my [insert literally every CV counter here]. In the current iteration of the game you don't need more than 2-4 ships, depending on nation, tier and class, in a small group to deny air attacks (unless ofc you're playing low-mid tier, but that has always been a problem with low-mid tier CVs). That's still small enough to maintain tactical flexibility. Heck, some ships are immune to airstrikes alone without being a dedicated counter. CV asymmetry actually wasn't all that bad imo, but MM had different rules back then (usually the side with the CV was at a numbers disadvantage, also +/-3 MM). Mirror MM for CVs was a player requested feature which WG complied with (which to be fair does make a lot of sense as air combat should be considered part of a CV's role), they had no intention of making this change themselves.

    ...Wait, so the optimum would be 5 CVs per side?
  5. When a salvo from @EdiJo destroys both of your torp tubes. Yeah, the game was about to end anyway, but still. :D Also it was physically painful to see your team play even from this side.

    I found Saipan to be fairly okay'ish as well until they made her immune to strafing out losses tbh. I actually do believe all DDs could use a charge of DFAA in its own slot that however only increases spread and does nothing for DPS. That way being out of position once doesn't automatically spell doom. The function of CVs as the primary DD counter has to be reconsidered with all the [edited] ups WG has done over the years in this regard.

    Could ask you the same. Attack strength is not a factor that is balanced in relation to other classes. CVs pay hard for their advantages in this regard whether you believe it or not. I mean, I'd be perfectly fine with reducing CV alpha if it meant e.g. faster service times. May even be beneficial for overall enjoyment as you'll have more active playing time.

    Probably because it's a moot point after mine. :) Doesn't that simply mean he's being punished due to the mistakes of his team in this team based game?
  9. El2aZeR

    So running off on your own in this team based game is not a huge personal mistake worthy of severe punishment?

    Pretty much, since you've previously shown that you're unable to accept facts such as - CVs prosper in an environment of mouthbreathing idiocy far more than any other class due to their damage capabilities being reliant on the enemy making mistakes - bad CV players benefit from what is essentially a bad aimbot, being capable of dealing huge amounts of damage against other idiots - BB overpopulation means dedicated counters are a rarity and so forth and so on.

    Have you ever considered that you deserve to lose if your team sucks in this team based game?
  12. El2aZeR

    Which is objectively wrong. Stacking AA with your teammates, if you're not playing a dedicated counter, requires a bare minimum of skill. Thus in this regard you're not a good player. :)

    And ofc we need to completely disregard as to how such performance and statistics are achieved.

    Ah, so you're saying the counters to CVs are ineffective? How so?
  15. El2aZeR

    Tier X - US v Japanese Carriers.

    So far all I see from you is - CVs are op based on hilarious reasons - WoWs is not marketed towards competitive, which is true enough - WoWs should be balanced around the reality of random battles So you have made one point and two that contradict each other, unless you mean to tell me you're excluding CVs from your whole "balance the game around random" thing? :)

    Because obviously a few sentences taken out of context represent the true opinion of a person. Are you working as a speech writer for a certain president over in NA? If not you should consider it. :) Stacking AA with a couple of your buddies (the number of which depends on the nation and class you and they are playing) does the same thing, you know?

    Once again only picking out parts out of context that favor your pitiful narrative, eh? :)
  18. El2aZeR

    Your points were just proven wrong by statistical evidence and this is all you can throw at me? Then again I guess attempting to take the high road is the only thing left for you to do when everything you just said was wrong. Better question, why are you alone engaging multiple enemy ships?

    So we shouldn't balance around the reality of random battles? That's new coming from you. :)

    Nah, we just know how to play BBs effectively unlike you.

    On the other hand, Enterprise, a premium CV that is widely accepted as balanced since release. 10/10 logic. According to statistics premium CVs enjoy a popularity comparable to moderately popular premiums such as Hood, Kii and Prinz Eugen in random battles. Fundamental failure to understand game design on your part as well as being completely subjective. Mechanics have to be fun to play with, whether they are fun to play against is utterly irrelevant. You're just pulling things out of your behind right now, aren't you?
  23. El2aZeR

    Tier X - US v Japanese Carriers.

    Really? Lets see, - the demand is to balance CVs around the reality of random battles - the reality of random battles is that the average random battle player is incapable of playing a CV effectively Conclusion: CVs need severe buffs to make the average random battle player successful in using CVs. After all, according to our buddy here, git gud doesn't apply to balancing.

    You do realize that is actually an argument saying that CVs are underpowered, right? Since, you know, the majority of random players cannot use CVs either, thus according to this logic CVs have to be way more powerful than they are now so even the most braindead moron can have success with them.
