Planes in Ranked are invincible

[StuHWulf]

Due to the heal buffs not applying correctly. Planes heal so fast with only one or two heals you can facetank AA and fighters and be invincible

[Lebedjev]

Luckly we can heal our AA !

[Hugh_Ruka]

No sh1t Sherlock ... CV mechanics broken ? this must be the first time this has happened ...

[Asakka]

Working as intended

I think someone just came early at WG HQ due to the awesome balancing he made to his favorite class

Not that it wasnt obvious. I knew about this shortly after this Ranked season was announced. Because unlike WG, I can count to 2.

[Excavatus]

OMG.. this is heaven!

3 mins in continuous AA and not a single plane down!!

This ranked would be hilarious..

 

but when think like a moderator..

I get terrified for the forum :P

Take a dedicated AA ship and you'll be fine.

This is a bug or you or your team earned enought heal buffs (or any kind of buff in the mode) that planes insta repair any damage=

[Xevious_Red]

Question for those that have had a chance to play ranked;

 

Obviously this seems a bit comedy of errors - planes healing faster than AA damage applies, leading to "invincible" planes.

 

If the opposing team however had got the same amount of heal buffs, would that completely off set the CV damage? Apart from the Hak, the other two rely more on DoT damage - can you heal that damage faster than the CV can deal it?

[Wagner1945]

I don't even understand why this game breaking class has its place in a supposedly ''competitive'' mode

[loppantorkel]

Not touching this season's Ranked. WG can figure it out.

Woe to those who run into ElZa on a normal day, for those who run into him in ranked, woe theyr keyboards and teeth

I doubt it, since Ships get only 0,05% HP recovery per sec. Planes get 1%

Bethesda: nobody screws up games like we do.

WG: hold my kerosene spiked vodka.

Was it tested properly before releasing? Probably... 

 

Or the person responsible for the spreadsheets dashboard still had its calculator set in radians instead of regular mode...

[SquibSurefire]

@MrConway

 

Would you please report the balancing team to their superiors and the human resources department for not doing their job.  How can you honestly tell me that planes taking ZERO damage at ANY POINT during a game be considered balanced. 

 

Is your continued explanation that CV's are balanced, just dodge ^(TM) or is this ***another*** "we are sorry for our mistake and apologize for the inconvenience caused"?

And so this becomes the sole guide of what ship to take, the fact there will be a cv to contend with. Gone are the days of choosing a good alrounder to do battle with, lol. Everybody needs to tune into the stream tomorrow to share their joy with the community team, all feedback is good feedback.....weyhey

I know, I was throwing in a potential counter argument against some yokel that'll eventually state what you said seriously  - now I just need a backward thinking yokel to ask away and we're all good

[StuHWulf]

A dedicated AA ship wont matter. If you look at the end I bombed the carrier, with fighters up, with a lone bomber. A lone bomber shouldn't survive fighter squadrons and carrier AA no matter how much healing it has.
