[TNDF] KratosTheUnforgiving Players 1,010 posts Report post #1 Posted April 20, 2019 What were WOW smoking when they came up with the capabilities of her planes, they just have to look at flak and they disintegrate, even when you don't fly through it. No, i'm not a noob, have plenty of time in British T4/6 carriers, they need a big buff to be even playable properly, don't even think of playing in a TX game, toying with the idea of asking for money back, she is another Azuma money spinner for WOW, selling a pup ! I don't care what Flamuu. Flambass and the rest of the experts say, she is not fit for purpose for the average player ! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[NWP] Bear__Necessities Players 5,291 posts 15,332 battles Report post #3 Posted April 20, 2019 Kaga takes getting used to but she’s not weak. Those late game plane reserves are no joke for the red team. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[JG4] JG4_sKylon Players 1,133 posts 20,992 battles Report post #4 Posted April 20, 2019 I am thinking about buying the Kaga. To test her planes i opened a training room and played Shokaku first with upgraded planes, then with the stock planes who are Kagas planes afaik. Did not see that big of a difference in plane survivability in AA of Iowa and Baltimore. When i messed the attack run the planes were dead, no matter if stock or upgraded.

[TNDF] KratosTheUnforgiving Players 1,010 posts Report post #5 Posted April 20, 2019 I know how to play CV, just this ship has been nerf'd to hell and back by WOW ! I disgaree with the late reserve stuff, why should a CV, just bumble about the game hoping to get a late kill, thats not playing in a team and not why I play them. Just been in a TX and best I could do was lucky torp on a DES, tried to play as a spotter and got decimated. Quantity of planes is not a level playing field, when they last a minute. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[NAN0] HaachamaShipping Players 8,474 posts 10,052 battles Report post #6 Posted April 20, 2019 Yes, please buff the Kaga. Survivability's fine though, just buff the torp damage to be the usual IJN one, as well as maybe the flooding chance. It'd totally not be OP.

[THESO] asalonen Privateer 791 posts 15,213 battles Report post #9 Posted April 20, 2019 Sorry for hijacking the thread: I haven't played the Kaga yet, but it's the premium CV that I'm most interested in. I think I'll buy it if I don't get it from one of the containers. Does it work well enough with the same skipper as Shokaku or Ryujo? I have a 19-point dude in both, but ideally wouldn't train yet another IJN CV skipper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dont have kaga but I have to comment on this... Oh boy Ok here we go... There is no team in randoms (well unless you manage a syncdrop with triple clan divisions on one side) "playing for the team" in randoms in a cv will usually leave you with meagere damage and no reserves left half way in the game, and no they will not use your spotting, they will not focus dds you target and usually they wont lift a finger when that dd (or another one) comes around to torp your ... Hence you play WITH the bunch of random ships that dont shoot you couse you happen to be same colour and try to do as much damage as you can and pick off low hp targets to take them out permanently... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Instead you created this whinge thread and learned nothing except to have it pointed out that you are terrible in cv's and that the Kaga tier for tier, is one of the stronger CV's in the game currently. If you genuinely want to learn and improve, look at yourself before pointing the finger 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most of the time, playing for the team coincides with playing for your own advantage. Scouting for example is something you'd want to do anyway to find a target for yourself at the start. Picking off ships that are vulnerable is also kinda helping, while suiciding planes into ships that aren't vulnerable helps neither you nor the team most of the time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[N_R_A] Hopeless_Guppy Players 3,753 posts Report post #16 Posted April 20, 2019 I think Kaga is right up there with the Enterprise as best CV, just my humble opinion, haven't got the Midway yet but as lady lex is my most unlucky CV todate I am not so much looking forward to her. Biggest problem have in the game is the teams (term used loosely) unwillingness to cap, so many times the caps are just handed over to the other team, no matter how you spot or try to salvage a flank, and the of course it is all the CV's fault, lol 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[NWP] The_Shungite_Wizard Players 386 posts 17,500 battles Report post #20 Posted April 20, 2019 Kaga is kind of brain dead, like u spec into torps and that is what u spam, doing between 30 to 50 torp hits per game is revolting, but its not the boat for me, if u are having problems with her, just the torp health and spam them, but it's not the most enjoyable to spam the same thing over and over Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
