US aircraft carrier. midway very poor toped angle And lousy accuracy on the rocket aircraft. On the good old Midway I did an average of 160 dmg Per round Now I will be happy when we come 10 dmg Pär round. And the autopilot is totally useless Wargaming fix midway 1 2 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[HOOKS] kingzy2013 Players 228 posts 6,355 battles Report post #7 Posted February 10, 2019 imo l2p issue, midways rockets and HE bombs are far more useful than the IJN rockets or bombs... they have amazing synergy together. if you get a damage con with rockets go back with HE bombs vice versa... sure the torps are not amazing but they are not suppose to be. rockets are generally midways flavor. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why the hell do you change the size of the font? 2. If you really struggle to reach 10k damage (I assume you mean 160k and 10k rather than 160 and 10 ) then this is far, FAR beyond the point of "Midway weak" kind of problem. 3. Have you tried actually aiming with these torps and rockets? As in, avoiding drastic maneuvers while lining up an attack? 4. Midway seems to actually be stronger than her IJN counterpart after the most recent changes, so it doesn't seem to be specifically hated by WG. 5. While we're talking about WG and what they are doing... We've had a hotfix this week, because Hakuryu was stupidly OP and AA in general relatively useless against CV players with modicum of skill. We're having a hotfix to hotfix early next week because the AA wrecks planes like crazy, making ships with reasonable AA borderline untouchable by lower tier CVs. Basically, rather than claiming that WG "hates US aircraft carrier" it's pretty clear that overall balancing is still a mess that might be sorted out in the future but right now is pretty far from what WG would consider the desired state of the game. All things considered - there are many people complaining about many things (sometimes contradicting each other heavily), but the tone of your whine is just ridiculous and makes you sound like an entitled kid. If you keep at it, nobody will take you seriously - including even people who might wholeheartedly agree with you that Midway is currently far too weak. In fact, these guys might actually hate you the most, since you just make them look bad by association. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sisito0o Players 271 posts 3,399 battles Report post #14 Posted February 10, 2019 But seriously before 0.8 update and after implementation of AP bombs Midway was the carrier to go. Not even just the carrier but the ship in the whole game to go, nothing else had that carry ability like it, I have won many games just by myself with 6-7 kills despite the desire of my team to loose them with total randomness in actions. And the best part was that 95% of players failed to see this which left me with so little competition that I would often have days of playing without a single loss.

[BHSFL] Beastofwar [BHSFL] Players 4,596 posts Report post #15 Posted February 10, 2019 If you play only a few games with it the guy has a point....despite you guys trying to make him rediculous. You have to learn by many defeats and huge credit losses that you should mouse aim with very slight movements to get usable accuracy out of some US CV torpedo bombers. And start your torpedo attack as far as >5 km* off to steady the aim and arm your weapons. *Dont pin me on this, it is a rather large distance in my experience, all this time taking FLAK but not being able to evade it or your aim goes wider then a barn door ! My point is no one told us how to improve accuracy despite nerfs which aim is not to destroy accuracy but make it harder to achieve it and at a penalty ( more time vulnerable to AA ) . You have to find that out all yourself, and some may not have the patience or need more time to understand how (nerf) mechanics are now. Is that all their fault or should explantions how to be more informative ? Those who understand shouldnt be such elitists. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would say it's a clear case of git gud 0.8.0 - CVs were closer to their final form than in this 0.8.0.1 hotfix Only carrier needed sledhammer approach was hakuryu, rest of them just needed a bit of fine tuning... But in good old WG fashion it was easier to nerf all of them rather to fix one by one In any case, it's possible to do solid dmg numbers after the hotfix but you need to play carefully, pick your targets...which again requires practice and patience 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Going for Low AA ships (DDs and stuff), roger that. Like this ones? Spoiler Mind you, these two were the only two in the flank I chose to go. I did tried what's in the video, to abuse the mechanics like they did with a single 3 km torp. I tried to bob and weve. I did dived way before the top range of my single torp . So far the only thing that worked was, stop playing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
