    Dual-use secondaries? (buff CV)

    If the enemy CV gets just a single good strike in he's done more than you ever will during the entire match. Besides, AS is ridiculously easy to outplay. Their so called "whining" is more than justified.

    Teamkiller status from coop mode?

    That does not even remotely illustrate your position. A more accurate analogy would be if you had thrown a live grenade into a trench in which your ally is currently engaged in hand to hand combat with an enemy in the hopes of only killing the latter. Which is tremendous stupidity on your part, your teammate plays no role whatsoever. An ally does not have a responsibility to look out for ordinance you throw into his way, regardless of what your intend is. You may not be the only one of that opinion but fact remains that it is wrong. Either ensure that you're unable to hit friendlies with torps or accept that you're taking a gamble and be prepared to face the consequences. Besides, what are you even upset about? Being pink has no repercussions whatsoever unless you're constantly willing to do team damage by carelessly firing ordinance at your team. Really, WG should punish tk'ing far more harshly than they do.

    Adressing the Battleship Plague

    You're probably basing this on the assumption that either your teammate will be able to pick up the slack or that maybe you can just overwhelm a more skilled CV player with numbers. Trust me when I say that you're sorely mistaken. 1v2 CV fights are rather easy if your opponents are less skilled than you. Besides, it doesn't remotely fix the underlying issue. You'll have games in which you're pitted against two skilled CV players with a lousy teammate, too. A couple weeks ago I was pitted against two poor soles with a highly competent Saipan in my Hiryu. To say we crushed them is an understatement. If anything CVs should be restricted to one on all tiers to avoid balance issues.
  4. Hiryu actually is far superior to Saipan as she wins every left click fighter engagement by default if you've picked your skills/upgrades correctly, giving her both air superiority and a greater strike potential. All you need to know is how to dodge strafes. If Saipan attempts to disengage just strafe after her fighters for easy plane kills. Kaga pretty much loses every fighter engagement no matter what she does from what I've seen.

    Maybe they simply adjust themselves to the average skill of the playerbase?

    I guess we need a new seal for this guy. Anyone good with Photoshop? If not I can maybe churn one out.

    Once again you have demonstrated impeccable reading skills. If you're too lazy to go back a page to see exactly what mtm & I quoted, here it is again. You can even click on that small arrow next to S_O's name to go to the original post directly.

    Provides proof that WG themselves say that there are too many BBs. Gets called a salty cruiser player. #justBBabythings Also T3 BBs require you to play T3 cruisers to unlock them. You have once again proven that you know nothing about the fundamental mechanics of this game.

    Adressing the Battleship Plague

    Tier 3 is also mandatory. According to warships.today: From T1 to T5 ~100k games have been played in cruisers on EU for the last 7 days. ~25k have been played in T1-3 cruisers. (excluding French cruisers from statistic because obviously hype has not died down yet) Around 25% is a small amount? Proven wrong just like last time. It's good to see that you're still straight up denying facts.

    Someone who wants to [edited] the game for his personal enjoyment sees himself fit to judge the implementation of game mechanics. Funny, really. Your opinions about game design and balance are of no value at this point.

    HMS Hood Teaser

    Obviously. Can't you see how unfair this is? Everyone under air attack should have their WASD keys locked due to crew panic or something to make the game more balanced and realistic.

    So... Empty claim, huh?

    Manual Drops is Not Seal Clubbing!

    Tbh before the alt attack removal imo Bogue was far superior than her competitors with the stock loadout. One torp squad was enough to outright delete ships or cause catastrophic damage and the fighter squad enabled you to establish air superiority in very short order. How she is now I have no idea.

    Submarines obviously. C'mon, we all had one sitting in port just a few weeks ago.

    HMS Hood (1940 version) inbound as T7 Premium BB

    That's actually a very hefty nerf to her AA. After all, you can just long drop Hood thanks to her size and poor maneuverability. Her rockets will never play a role.
  18. Be prepared to die of old age without ever playing Kaga then. WG's policy is to never nerf premiums specifically.

    Dual-use secondaries? (buff CV)

    Funny, I seem to have lost quite a few games yesterday despite crushing the enemy CV.
  20. Had a game just now in which all of our BBs literally hid behind my CV (which was sitting in spawn because obviously we were getting pushed back). Sadly neglected to take a screenshot, I got caught up in typing profanity at those worthless [insert string of insults here].
  21. El2aZeR

    Too many DD

    I was referring to when torp soup became actually prevalent, not when it was already in full effect. Obviously after a while cruisers would fall alongside CVs since, as you pointed out, they've had no more role to play.

    Adressing the Battleship Plague

    Regardless of who cries and whines about what, the whole idea that one class can delete another even if it does everything right is ridiculous, as no other class is able to do so. Cruisers can be avoided, air strikes can be denied, torpedoes can be dodged, HE spam damage can be mitigated by proper choice of position and management of DCP, repair and, in some cases, stealth. A battleship however can still catch you even if you had your timing down to a T, thanks to, ironically, their inaccuracy. You're also still unable to differentiate between basic and strict guidelines by senselessly pouring over historic facts that have nothing to do with game design.
  23. El2aZeR

    Too many DD

    Cruisers were very much alive back then. CVs were not. I agree that Radar was a horrible addition, as was any 1-button-win mechanic, really. And you're right, balance is a mess right now and has been for a while. But then you have to remember that the great majority of the playerbase are scrubs, thus teamplay will never enter their minds regardless of how balanced the game is. Now you have two choices, "balance" the game for scrubs, which I believe no one truly wants, or attempt to better the playerbase. If you choose the latter then some of the CV "problems" (namely them being too influential and powerful) will solve themselves with it.

    German Aircraft Carrier Graf Zeppelin

    Pretty sure that they've stated that this isn't the rework. Too lazy to dig up the Q&A about it, tho.

    German Aircraft Carrier Graf Zeppelin

    It is well known that she's in the works, but it'll be with or after the rework afaik.
