This is obviously a huge problem in competitive and one of many reasons why teams have voted to ban them from KOTS. How is a DD supposed to fulfill any of their typical duties when a CV has decided that they shouldn't? A: It's quite ok in randoms, less so in competitive, when highly coordinated play kicks in (and that's why CVs haven't yet appeared in Clan Wars). Problem is there, we know about it, but since, as I stated in another answer, we love to fix things instead of imposing additional limitations, we're actively looking for a ways to make it more healthy and bring CVs back to Clan Wars. One would think in a less coordinated gamemode it would be even more of an issue. I mean if it is a problem at the competitive peak, how can it not be everywhere else? 4 hours ago, Excavatus said: Q: Will there ever be any ship locks for removed ships in competitive modes? ie. No Enterprise for the t8 clan brawl and any other future comp events? A: Highly unlikely. Our general approach is that when something doesn't work as intended -> we prefer to fix it, rather then ban it. Ofc there are notable premium exceptions, but nothing at this point looks scary enough to warrant such drastic measures. Well , a T10 CV in disguise at T8, capable of keeping up with THE best T10 CV by far, isn't scary enough? Alrighty then. 4 hours ago, Excavatus said: Q: How intent is the wargaming dev team on adding aircraft carriers to clan battles? Is it a guarantee at this point that it will inevitably happen, or is it still up in the air (no pun intended)? Even with the proposed minimap only spotting changes, everything I have seen leads me to believe that the reaction of the entirety of the playerbase to having aircraft carriers in clan battles would be overwhelmingly negative. A: We're actively testing it, so our desire to let them in is quite strong. But no final decisions at this point that I can share. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because comrade, the average CV player is too trash to do anything worthwhile*! 10/10 rework, skill gap confirmed to be narrowed despite every argument indicating otherwise! *EDIT: By worthwhile, I mean to actually strike destroyers and/or keeping them spotted. Who knew that using rocket planes is so hard that only super-unicums can do it? It gets even more laughable when one considers that WG allow carriers in ranked, a supposedly competitive gamemode with fewer players per game than in random battles (thus greater impact for the CV). 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The best/worst part is, I can imagine WG doing just that, unarmed squadron, or even single plane with radar, hydro and other such nonsense as answer to "CV cannot into teamwork" complaints. On second thought... disable 3d spotting, something WG tests anyway already and replace useless Combat Air Patrol with Spotter Plane - provides actual spotting and dispersion bonus when firing at ships spotted by it. Here, teamwork fixed camrades 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now im unsure When the CVs finally make appereance in Clan Wars, and I'm sure they will be, It will never be the same. CV captain will probably the deciding factor.. I'm thinking full team push on the double cap side, 2 dds in front.. and CV scouting infront of the DDs.. It will either a great stalemate, or a roflstomp. As a man who can see future, I congradulate myself recruiting more than a couple deep purple CV players into the clan :) They'll carry us into the victory... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[PEZ] Yedwy Players 11,301 posts 39,586 battles Report post #11843 Posted November 15, 2019 IMHO the T4 CV issue is so prevalent that its best not to play any ship below T6 at the moment, of you are (re)grinding some lines just use freexp or do it in coop... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any T4 match I played yesterday were 3 CV each side - makes the experience for other classes truly miserable. I think the area around T4 is turning belly up. More and more people just quit playing that tier with surface ships thus increasing the percentage of CVs, which makes the experiance for the remaining players even worse, so more ppl are tempted to quit... and so on. I quit playing T4, which I always liked. And becoming part of the problem aka playing CV myself is not really what I want to do to other players. Although it might the one thing forcing WG to finaly do something about it - everyone queing up in a T4 Cv. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[4PHUN] Aixin Players 1,084 posts 7,420 battles Report post #11845 Posted November 15, 2019 Thing is.. WG considers cvs to be balanced. And especially for T4 cvs it is not the case. Hosho is as op as Haku was in 8. 0. Yeah it sucks. But if you have an op ship like gulio Cesare you can hunt cvs down at least if they are stupid. I don't really like playing T4 as it provides no fun with 3 CVs. It would be much better if they only allowed one cv per game. That would be a good step. If they want 3 CVs per side they need to tune down their performance. But tbh I think they just want to make the CV's attractive to new players. That's why they don't want to change them.... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any T4 match I played yesterday were 3 CV each side - makes the experience for other classes truly miserable. Yesterday I tried T4 Hermes to see if the Swordfish are different than on T6 Ark Royal. IMO they are, but the most "impressing" was the absolute idiocy of the CV players. Reminded me of CO-OP where they all go in like Pirañas on a piece of meat. Or something like this: This is not even funny anymore for the CV players (might be if you have Hosho and like Black Friday shopping). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
