[RATM] Grumpy_Shark Players 300 posts 22,938 battles Report post #1 Posted February 7, 2019 ...but i won't be asking for a refund since 45k was a small price i had to pay in order to acquire Haku and you to nerf it the day after, cause at least now the CVs will be played even less than before so i may have "lost" 45k (well at least 7k are left to me) but i wont have to worry about CVs any more when i ll be playing my other ships. 45k doublons aka 150 euros. (aka the 99euro package with 30k doublons + the (15k+25million credits) package for 50euros. Well it's not so much for me after all. Even that outcome suits me well. CVs now after the hotfix will disappear for good. And we can all happily return to the previous play style we loved and had been used to. Game on! :) And here is a video just to remember what Hakuryu was pre-nerf. It's me on my first game on a random match with the ship. 2 20 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[NKK] valrond Beta Tester 884 posts 12,999 battles Report post #8 Posted February 7, 2019 Well, now Haku (and other CVs) are useless. I played like I used to play, now 8 minutes into the game I can't launch any plane squad, I'm out of planes. Yeah, I played CVs till yesterday and I didn't have this problem. So in top of nerfing the Haku, that was overperforming, they just killed the CVs. This is worse than having a limited hangar. 2019, year of the (death of the) CV. 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[IDDQD] RAYvenMP Players 816 posts 17,290 battles Report post #10 Posted February 7, 2019 i still don't understand why they nerfed all CVs when only Hakuryu was overperforming. Absolutely every single CV dropped in stats (some drastically) post 0.8.0, Haku was broken due to 8km spamable torps, simple removal of that 8km module would fix it. Now ALL CV are terrible even when toptier and total garbage when bottom tier. most ridiculous thing is that half of the players still talk about "unlimited planes dude!" when in reality, its plane capacity now is much worse compared to pre-rework. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was so CURIOUS to see what is like to play Hakuryu , i had watched others play it and was jealous ^_^ And also i did it to GET TO THE HONEY FROM START! (cause with old CVs i hadn't that chance, i started the game some months after release and even more months passed before i even take a first shot with old CVs. In the meantime the people that were playing them a;ready and many of them from beta testing were much better than me and i really couldn't stand to have my team suffer lost matches due to my incompetence and my "learning curve" exactly because i am a responsible kind of person. When new CVs arrived i thought that this time i won't leave even a day go wasted. I am gonna try and master CVs with equal chances to the others. That's why. Also i really didn't excpect a nerf bat so soon. This project had been worked for months and i thought that since they decided to release it after all this time they have tested thoroughly and it is a finalized "product". Ofc in an online game everything is prone to change at any time i just didn't thought they change it so soon. The past expeirence with WG had showed me that they change things rather slowly. So that immediate "hotfix" was not anticipated. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skipping it was a good thing both for me and the teams i relieved from my presence in Shokaku. At the end of the day you think it like this: "would the grief of the grinding be more tedious than spending 150euros and get the juicy stuff RIGHT NOW?

Why on earth would you do that 45k doublons on FreeXP to skip through a branch that is (by WG claims) up for significant changes... all to get a ship that is (by general consensus of players) insanely OP. I mean... what would you expect? BUFFS? That being said, I heard that WG went about balancing their usual way. As in: took a sledgehammer and BOOOM. Gonna have to check the Haku.

Could be deliberate to depopulate CV player group as they didn't expect the mass resentement of the effects of the rework, and want to prevent many, many upset players leaving, which are a FAR larger group then truely disgrunteled CV players now. Financials and all..... Still i dont see nerfing CV into the ground bodes well for their upcoming UK CV campaign. If no one want to play those you can't make many sales off it's campaign. So they are caught in a situation i am curious about how they plan to solve. What is worse in my opinion WG may have become very wary to repeat such consequences if it comes to introducing submarines. They now probably won't have the stones to do it. Shame as it would make the game even richer, but conservative players seem not to stomach it and be a majority that influences WG a lot.

People tend to complain all the time about pretty much everything and being ignored. Why this time would be any different. And despite the critisism from contributors beta testers and the like the company WG decided that the product was ready for release with all the authority they have so am i to be blamed for taking their word for granted that the product was ready for release? And as i said i had played other games with inferior tier CVs and lots of coop previous to that and lots of training room before even that. And i also saved the video of my play to see how i fared in my first match on tier 10 random. Not so bad for a "noob" right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
