I wonder if after the TB hype, players will start to cry about how regular bombers drop from point blank and can start fires.

gamescon tag = free exp

CV-haters gonna hate.

That video pretty much sums it up. A skillless DD player goes YOLO and dies against 3 TBs. Proceeds to spam topics in forum. AA power is shown how it can drop t9 upgraded squadrons (5 planes) before they can even reach the ship. No cruiser protection or fighters getting in the way, just straight AA fire.

Get a dog.

I completely agree. I have found that the best thing about sailing a higher tier CV is that you don't get matched vs t6 Clevelands with their artillery pointing in the skies.

Carriers are supposed to be strong. I urge everyone to play a carrier and see if he can win all games

Why don't people play some CV and see that it is not that easy. HIgh-tier games are not dictated by who has more CVs. Get over it.

I've done about 116 dmg or so with plane torpedo vs DD. There are some funny dmg mechanics.

I've spent 0 dorrars on the game, and I'm enjoying the hell out of it.

The MM replaces a CV with a BB as far as balancing is concerned, if there are no CVs available. Obviosly, a BB is not a coutner for a CV. You can't play solo yolo in such high-tier games.

One for the haters.

This thread is funny.

Maybe add 12x2 115mm AA guns to your ship while we readjust the carriers for you?

US squadrons have 50% more planes. That's a raw 50% bonus hp and dps.Dogfighting skill gives them extra dps on top. It's that simple. Things get a little more balanced at t9 and t10. And if both players get the +1 plane skill, it will "only" be a 40% difference in squadron size. Get used to giving US CVs "clear sky" achievement every game.

That's pretty tight for 10km away...

The true strength of carriers is strategic play and ability to choose your target on the map. Planes drop like flies from AA defenses. Most complains seem to come from BB players that separate from main fleet and don't have good map awareness.

Silver is tight if you are going for more than 2 ship branches. If you are not a patron of the game you just have to grind like everyone else.

Thread reviving. Still encountering the same bug. Flag is on auto-ressuply. I got confederate yesterday, no flag. I got it today, no flag. My last flag reward was roughly 2 days ago. VERY annoying. Submitting it as a bug.

The t8 USA CV Lexington has one of the best AA defenses in the game, as well as almost the best fighter squadron power currently in the game (taking into account IJN fighter stats for near tiers, dogfighting bonus,etc.). My general strategy when I'm playing my t8 JCV against an Lexington is: stay as far away as possible from him, and try to be useful for the team in the meantime.

You are correct I think, the carrier with the 91 or so AA. Thanks!

In t8 and above you can get a 2,000,000 skill that gives you 20% concealment upgrade for the ship. There is also the opposite of this ugprade, giving you 20% more acquisition range, but I'm not sure exactly how they interact with each other. Technically, you can get 10% concealment from the captain skill, and 20% from a ship upgrade, although the last one maybe countered by the opposite skill. 30% brings your concealment from 7.6km down to about 5.3km, and use the camo paint for some extra meters. t8 and above ugprades and captain skill are essential if you want to be competitive.

It is A premium ship, so players that never used such ones can see what they are like. I am very happy about that chance, and after that you get some dobloons and a free ship slot I hope.

I found in the forum the max number of SPs you can get on one captain is 19. Does that count the initial boost you can get of 1 or 3 points? If you don't have initial boost, can you still get to 19? Thanks.

Really useful! So it's 646,900 xp or less to get 15 points. It's a long grind but not unachievable.
