To clarify my question I put some paint skills into use. So I was approaching the 2 BBs sailing like this (above image). I went into torpedo attack mode and as soon as I entered smoke both ships disappeared. They appeared 5 seconds later when I exited the smoke right above them (too late to drop). In the meantime my planes were under AA fire the entire time. There was no other enemy ships near that could spot me (coop).

I was flying through smoke... Apparently ships can still spot you while you cant spot them.

Has anyone noticed how planes interact with smoke? I went into torpedo drop and flew low trough smoke. Since nobody else was spotting them they disappeared (logical), but the funny part is that this ships that disappeared were still shooting me and melting my planes. Can some1 confirm this?

Learn to play with your concealment first. That said, go with torpedo boats before you go with gun boats. I play half of my match just by looking at the mini map when torpedo boating.

I tried finishing as top player in my Hosho in coop. Couldnt do it, gave up :)

I need a mod where the selected targets AA bubble is drawn on minimap ;) ...oh nm that, you cant select targets in cv

Even the Bots know about the blob meta. I am calling them "Blotz" now.

Using ASLAIN mods for years now ... I am not convinced that the modpack itself is the issue.

Hello, Im one of those (dont know if rare or not), who since the CV rework has not played outside of coop. All my captains except one are despecced. I am playing only Saipan in coop, finishing Halsey campaing by repeating task3/stage5 (70 hits made by CV for one star). I thought this will be a good way to: - take a break from the game, letting WG balance CV/AA - learning CV play in Saipan, since I bought her years ago and never played it - finishing Halsey campaign outside randoms Now I can do carry coop games with average around 70-100 k dmg ... but if I encounter any AA bot ships in match I have problems. My question: How AA built are the bots ... lets say Worchester, Minotaur ... if you see a bot in one of those ships, what AA does it have? Max .. lowest? Do bots use DEF AA, sectors .... AA modules and captain skills ?

Basic math wasnt in game from the beginning. WG changed so the -100% applies in the end like 2 years ago. Before you could detonate even running the juliet signal if you ran the +4 signal. I even think it had something todo with the order of equipping... dont take me on that one, I forgot the details.

Gonna get u more likes than dislikes, just sayin ;)

elaborate the guy, he might not be playing at the time. not by telling him basically "use the search engine" (that gives questionable results) .... :)

** forum hickups I gave a thumbs up to the op. Why might you ask. Because the post feels like its mine. Except the revert rework thingy (hope I understood you correctly and you did not only ment the current patch). *** I wrote a long post on my phone But the save button decided to eat 80% of the post. You might want to look into that too someday WG. **** Actually it splitted the post into two (double save button click when the first one did not redirect) while only showing the first part on the the redirect. So to rewrite in short version. The revert to RTS will never happen. Many things still has to be addressed. - CVs themself - AA - FLAK function - spotting or detection in general - smoke-cv interraction .... (forgot at least 5 more here). Currently WG has to hotfix the game to an "acceptable" version. Then they need to address all the issues alltogether while thinking hard what the effect will be. Otherwise we will have a never ending hotfixing, while people yawn on the forums and WG tries to meet all request from all sides. The problem is that they rely on data-mining. The more ppl play the better data they can pull out the DB. From one perspective the RN CV release will bring even more players to play CVs ... and that makes data. On the other hand I feel like even more CV players frustrate players that play other classes (DDs especially). So this has to be fixed ASAP. What IF ... only IF WG reworks smoke and makes it shorted and unlimited with cooldown (like Atlanta defensive AA) for instance RN DD smoke style. That would give DDs protection against CVs. Combined with 20 seconds cowntdown for CVs at the start of the match. In return ... I wold disable AA for ships in smoke. Sorry ... you cant shoot something you cant see. My hands hurt so Ill stop ... thoughts?

I just reboot. From my XP restarting the client doesnt help... at least not as much as reboot. Also those 1 click cleanup programs like ccleaner dont help. Examined taskmgr... all seems cool... so the fastest solution for me is reboot, since my OS reboots in under 10 secs. But sometimes i go AFK, alt tabbing WOWS to background... and after an hour the game is still connected and UI still responsive.

Cmon guys, dont be mean, even if its very tempting :) Took me 20 coop games, to figure out that I was playing against bots when I started... some just take a little longer. And to defend his statement... bots are kinda cheating with their wh ability ;) Especially that Nicolas in Narai. Bastard sat in smoke and totally rekd me while the fort was spotting me ;)

You guys are trying... I give you props for that. But you are making a plan that would take WG a year to implement and test. Without doing anything else on the current implementation. They wont do it... at least not now. They will tweak AA...and CVs a bit... but thats it. They wont limit CVs to 1 per game... not with RN CVs about to be released. They will stick to their plans... tweak a bit here and there... but thats it. We have what we have... and it wont change any time soon. Sadly.. the game I liked has changed. Will I like it again? TBH... I am not sure...

Well... you know whats the funny part? The game currently is in such a state that I dont even feel like playing. Guess I will just wait untill the next respec. In the meantime I know you guys will figure out the builds that make the most sense. Cause currently I am very confused reading the forums on my phone. :)

I got screwed by national ISP (Telekom). They unplugged the wrong user from the central - me. Dont have inet access since Thursday... waiting. They are not responding since I have a contract with another ISP (who is using their infrastructure) who cant do crap, but to file official request. Since they hate each other, and they only support their own customers on weekends ... I am paying the price. 5 days offline and couting... 2019 baby. Had to let it out boys... sry.

Its a known windows bug. Do you use remote desktop (RDP) to connect to your machine? Try using a different keyboard settings...... like US keyboard or something. You could also enable vitrual keyboard to see if the win key is stuck. Press it twice to unstuck it. You could disable win key alltogether like saiyko suggested, but I usually dig before resolving to drastically solutions...

2heals aint much... 3 with SE...

I donno about dropping CE on Grozo. Doesnt sound right to me... But then again... Nothing sounds right with the current state of the game.

What about Worchester? I intend to share captain with atlanta. AFT is still the most reasonable pick isn't it?

Is the camo in any way different then the black camo (except visually)?

Its a valid request

Ermmmmm.... !?!?!
