Why would i wanna keep playing, if my entire team sits uselessly behind an island, and my only salvation would be to join them !? Fine, kill the game, lets see how long you keep playing CVs then

Average playerbase has the map awareness like a slice of bread... meaning, they cant comprehend anyway what happened in the game. But they still wanna blame someone, and if they get screwed by the enemy CV, they gonna blame you since you are playing CV aswell, so you are part of the problem why they have to deal with a CV. On the other hand, maybe they are right and you are doing the wrong stuff? getting a kraken doesnt mean that you did the right things. Maybe you killed a target, which was under heavy fire/burning and would have died anyway. Instead, you could have hunted that DD who was torping your teammates. Just guessing, but these things do happen. Ive recently played Enterprise in Sprint, and didnt get any hate so far from my team. On the contrary, some thanked me. And got more hate from the enemy team

Except the CV couldnt just reign free like that. There was still the other CV with fighters around to stop you from it. EVEN if the other CV was a noob, the possibility still existed, so just going into enemy spawn was a no-no Only till T7, not T8. Thats why staying with AA Cruisers actually did something, since DefAA gave a penalty for dropping. Not to mention, you could buff your AA range, which helped your teammates aswell. Now Cruisers have to stay with Masterrace for AA protection

Just really depends on the team. I had most success (independent of what the team did) being on the flank where C/D is (? think its C/D, the right side basicly where each side can have a cap). Fewer people seem to go to that flank, i guess because its more open, so you can force your way through and start shooting the island campers being broadside But just yesterday had an absolutely horrible match on it. We were trapped in our spawn, because an enemy asashio was right flank, and a Shima left flank. And our CV ignored them totaly. So our team just kept circling in our spawn because we were permaspotted and permatorped from both sides. Longrange shima torps are retarded - but you still have to dodge em. And enemies had a BB every 2 squares so you could hardly push without showing broadside. We even almost managed to turn it, but i had to push, our Izumo ran away instead of helping me kill that Vladi, vladi rammed my Monty and it was GG after that. No, but i feel its extremely boring the way people play it, especially if you get T9-10 on that map. Feels like, 16~ people camp at 3 spots on the map. Upon release, it was so nice, people (especially BBs) actually stayed more central fighting for the caps. Have a few Gneisenau games with close quarter games around B and C caps. Now you can forget about that

Well the question is: Could he have made it? I assume he spawned in the center, since there is no other Cruiser close. The other BBs/Cruisers spawned on the flank, and they were moving away from him. And we are just above 2 mins into the game. Maybe he could be closer to the T8 BBs, but no way he could have escaped the CV, since after 2:20 he already dropped him and new planes are already visible on the map. So he could have stayed with his Izmail/Normandie (which probably spawned center too)... but i doubt that would have helped, neither of them has a plane.

He could have been a DD, woud be dead Ask those T3-4 ships without AA (even literally) who get farmed by 2-3 T4 CVs all day long

Ive had good drops with Ryujo AP bombs. Feels less RNG compared to Big E. Some drops with Enty you can only wonder wtf happened there

Ofc it should. They even wrote so in their own description about CVs. Just hover over the CV symbol when you are in queue for battle, it says something about fighting capital ships or something. Not to mention, that BBs suffer the least from CV attacks. Chunking DDs with rockets? They dont even have a heal. Same for Cruisers till T9, but it still hurts. AP bombs do hurt BBs, but they hurt Cruisers even more due to having less HP.

Cant have BBabies go cry because they get attacked too much. Thats why most of them can mount fighters so that bad bad CVs will rather strike Cruisers and DDs.

Purrfect

Good question... Had a mental breakdown playing TX today. Either you get <300 battle premiums newbs, or >10k battle genuine noobs. Both are useless to play with. They dont play the game, its just crap what they are doing. Same on lowtiers with CVs, but on a rare occasion, i had several T5 games today WITHOUT any CV Was fun right away. And then you have ranked (sprint) where you get the same dogs*i* but with fewer people. I dont get why these people are "playing" the game. For certain, they are not playing anything. Might aswell be scratching their asses instead

nuff said? btw you are breaking rule naming&shaming, you have to edit the names so we cant see it That was a 6-7 minute game. Enemies get all caps, but ours just die... smolensk goes B (on mountain range), gets spotted because why not, B was contested. Smokes up full broadside, dies to torps. I barely managed to shoot more than 10 salvos IIRC (probably not even that). I didnt even have the range to shoot more than 4 or 5 ships, because all but 3 were on 1 or 10 line!! i was a few km behind B.

I know a lot of people who dont like it, but i dont think its that bad really. We have much worse maps in the pool, not necessarily because of the map, but how people play it. - Islands of ice, like really one of the worst maps out there now. Frequently you see 1 or both sides getting clumped up on C resulting in a complete shitshow. Sometimes a few others get stuck at A. - Haven, was such a nice map when it was released. Now you have 3 spots on the map where the ships are blobbing up. - Mountain range, pretty obvious. If you have a team, which likes to go to C you can just quit right there. - new Shards, Its incredible how retarded people are moving on that map. Was a nice map earlier, now they ruined it. Sure, you had always numbnuts going to C, but it usually was a few only, now its half goes C, other half goes behind A.

Is of good Waifu(s) You get no CVs in a game, you are allowed to play again Also 13th consecutive win in Murmansk

Dont think you will find those players here. - They think they pay more "repair" costs if they get damaged - They cant manage DCP / Heals - They can only overextend or camp. Either they go in too fast and die, or they sit in the back. So sitting in the back it is. - They have no map awareness - They dont undestand angling or in general dont know about overmatch mechanics.

How about you actually play the game? Last battle played 1 year ago. Something called "CV rework" happened in the time being, maybe you read about that first, because 3 CVs per side is possible and not even a rare sight on T4. Also, there is no escape from T4 CVs, if the player is competent, he will kill you, no matter what.

Well, ofc against good CV players it matters less, but against all others you can actually try to dodge without getting blasted by the rest of the team. If you play a Cruiser and the option is to take a torp or show broadside to an enemy BB, id rather take the torp Not to mention, that Cruisers get shafted the most by basicly every attack type. Dodging Rockets? LUL, thats a 1/4 of your HP gone right there. AP bombs? Dicerole between getting blasted or "only" receiveing 1-2 citadels. Torps can be dodged easily, but we are back to above scenario. HE bombs hurt others too, but not great getting bombed by those in a Cruiser either. Ontop of AA and DefAA being a joke. Especially in low-midtier games with 2-3 CVs per side, minimap spotting would take a lot of pressure from the DDs. If every CV player would be like you, wows would be dead (or unplayable).

Sure, no arguement there, but that could easily be tweaked by rewarding tanked damage. And thats not even considering that it would benefit the game if they would reward spotting/tanking more than they do right now.

I think its balanced when german BBs are at the lower end of the damage scale, because they can decide games by tanking/pushing better than others (no, RU BBs are not balanced). If german BBs can still win games even if they dont dish out the most damage, then its still fine imo. Having high damage numbers while not being able to decide games is not OP, but rather broken. F.e. if i look at your stats, Bismarck has rather low damage, but you win more than with the other BBs. If you would buff the damage output, that actually would make them OP, no? Cause most players ive seen playing Bourgogne, it outperforms their other TX BBs. So even if it has downsides, are those enough to make it balanced? Pretty much same for Russian BBs: Is having a Citadel a reasonable downside for their guns/armor? No, because good players can angle and negate that downside. Having idiotproof armor against AP/HE and even fires is something you can utilize everytime.

I like to exploit the greedyness of people while playing Radar Mino. They basicly go for your citadel even while angled. So funny to bounce BB shells

PEF is very accurate and Bourgogne is OP. That Bourgogne doesnt fare well in CBs is a different story however: People know what they are doing, so 380mm caliber against 27-30mm plating is pretty bad. And having lowest HP pool with 32mm armor doesnt make it better against pure HE spam. However, this changes if you take her to Randoms: You can exploit mistakes MUCH better than others. And with your speedboost, you can just go to a place to force enemies to make a mistake and get the broadsides you need. The other side of the spectrum is Henri: Pretty strong in CBs, while being more balanced in randoms. You cant really balance ships for all gamemodes, but the focus needs to be balanced in randoms, while not being OP in CBs. OP in randoms while being crap in CBs is not balanced. If people think, PEF is not accurate, i think its for having bad aim. Ofc the better the dispersion, the better you need to aim to land most of your shells, otherwise you will miss. I have >38% hitrate in PEF with ~20 battles (mostly sprint). And in Sprint we often faced 3-4 DDs which has an impact on your hitrate. But shooting at the right moment you can land 5-6 shells on a DD, which is very good.

Sometimes id rather have AFK ships that the way some people are playing. Atleast i can adapt my playstyle. And when they live, they dont lose points dieing. Had a game once with a 3x division being AFK. Just barely before we won, one of those suddenly started moving (atleast one of the others got killed) and wanted to die ASAP. He just yoloed in full broadside, i mean WTF?! Like playing 9vs12 is not bad enough, but if you do it, then they have to throw it every way possible! Had to closequarter kill a DM with my Wooster to get the win...

I think the possibility is high enough to get an equally bad CV in the other team, so that should stop getting below 20% Those are the worst lexington players with ~100 or more games so we get a somewhat meaningful amount of games. 40% probably too high yes, but 30% is possible, as i wouldnt describe their performance more than AFK. Basicly what the OP is doing himself, so it might even be in line with his experience

Not sure if you wanna hear it, but im gonna throw it out anyway: If you lose that many games in a row, sure there is some bad luck involved, im not even argueing with that. But its most likely also due to playing poorly. And looking at your stats, maybe you would be better off playing new CVs on T4-6 first before you play them on T8. I think you definetely need to learn the class more to perform on T8. Even if you are trying your best, the contribution is not enough to get even easy wins. So you will be stuck at 30-40% WR no matter what, basicly guaranteed wins where you could be AFK aswell.
