Hello WG since you changed rickets and made them hard to use against DDs I started use torpedo bomb and now I kill all DD with torpedo bomb. look at my glorious Stat in this match ayayaya Please also change torps so DDs are protected clearly CV is still op lol We need to protecc this weak players too who eat my torp bomb

Wait. I remember a time when CV haters complained that they couldn't create extra threads and their constructive criticism had no place outside the trash that is "CV-discussion". Have we forgotten about that?

I can't answer your question. All CVs are viable when you understand how they work, especially in t8. However to your statement. If you do the snipe right it takes maybe at max 7 minutes. That's not to long considering from the start of the game snipe. In endgame you can easily kill a CV in 2 - 3 min.

I already do though :(

because they are to far away and to many surface ships between me and them. Otherwise I would snipe them all day. Bonus points if enemy halland starts parking next to his CV like a good dog

marceu doesn't really have to floaty shells and is a great pick. Immelmann lacking game influence is still fun to play somewhat due to the unique bombs. I would say get Immelmann for the unique CV game play. Since it doesn't have rockets you don't have to deal with the new kind of bad rocket mechanics.

yes and that observation happening consistently over 700~ midway games for me so far (after enlightened drop removal) is highly fishy. as you said. The likely hood of a bomb falling exactly in that one spot of the reticle where it touches the ocean instead of the ship should be the most unlikely thing ever. I will try to experiment more on this in training room counting the bombs that fall into exactly such a spot and how often it happens. Will post my findings over the weekend.

I wonder that too. I'm pretty sure there is some system like that in place. Had a lot of moments were reticle was clearly covering the whole ship shortly before bombs hit and still missing 2 of 6 in Midway for example. The best example is when bombing broadside targets how almost always very conveniently all bombs fall exactly around the target forming a very perfect gap of the target in the reticle. There has to be a system that rolls bombs individually to prevent skill from influencing drops to much.

Yeah I know I know. spotting. 8s the only reason. why FDR was competitive in CBs too xD

if the game feels like an addiction to you that you'd like to stop but can't then you need to treat it like one. Inform yourself on how to get help for addictions, inform your friends and seek help

remember when the forum claimed that CVs are broken even in the hands of potats? Now they need to git gud too X_X

.... why Mirage why... you could have asked.... when they will release Zuiho

Very likely this

and minotaur armor scheme

we will see all three of them with exactly those names

Btw great progress on your CV play man, keep it up

:D

Are you finally calling it and leaving? Or does more still have to come to convince you? :D

Goliath could use a little more dps though, still not that high and breaks easily to rocket attacks. But full AA petro? That thing is just broken :D

I mean then it doesn't matter what DD you take. Just play whatever you enjoy

Dont get mistaken. A CV wihh a brain will still totally crap all over you if he wants to. Either by killing you during the single mistake you make during the battle or by making you totally useless to your team

Its not worth it to go for these ships if none of one owns team is able to shoot at them during it because yes, the smoke has a to short CD. Since daring also has a heal the damage a CV can do to one alone usually is never enough to severely cripple it either. There are better targets most of the time.

Obviously I'm a CV main. I'm also not trying to excuse CVs. Just stating my opinion. As a CV main I obviously think differently about how I play my DDs in those games. So I also am able to tolerate the influence of CVs on me more. Yes some games you just can't win. It was a 3 man div because I enjoy playing with friends more than trying to prove a point but yes. It being a loss certainly wasn't the fault of that enemy CV player. It was more of an issue of our team dying faster than our div could kill theirs. As you pointed out my stats are quite good and stable when looking at most recent numbers (if you judge me by outdated stats that kind of won't help). So I would say in my case the game is definetly playable for me in DDs or other classes besides CVs despite CVs and I perform well enough together with div mates or alone to get a win out of at least 60% of my games. And yes, the game is fun for me CV or not. Take it as you will. I just can't agree on CVs killing opportunities. In my divs whenever I play DD we usually have at least 1 CV player in our div and no... I do not get babysit by fighter planes all game long because it reveals my position :D

Oh yes gunboats are more difficult X__X I avoid playing them

Yes, depends of course. Last game I played in a t8 DD I killed 5 ships and lost the game with 1.8k base exp in a CV game. That CV tried often to keep me spotted but obviously couldn't always (I smoked, stayed behind cover when I expected him ect.) In another game I wouldn't be able to have auch performance because different circumstances or the CV spotting could have let to me taking more damage. But I think it's wrong to complain that CVs ruin those opportunity every time. They only ruin it of the circumstances are a certain way. The CV doesn't ruin anything during other certain circumstances. The game would be boring if being stealthy always worked consistently in every battle wouldn't it?
