Keeping a CV with DCP on CD burning is rather easy as they burn easier than other ships, but that usually requires 1 minute before you are able to do that. Still assuming he just doesnt die before that Yeah I usually do that to the enemy CV when I'm (usually) in Ark Royal. 13 minutes ago, DFens_666 said: No, he does use DCP immediately. Then its 60 sec active (or more if the CV uses the coal DCP mod ). If is DCP is on CD, every fire will only burn 5 secs. T4-8 CVs will probably be dead when they are getting shot at by HE from a Cruiser for 1 minute straight. Only TX CVs are different because of their lulzy deckarmor. If I can get them, I will as I know CV has large influence on the game. However they still have armour (Lexington sure does, so do RN Cvs). ROFL didn't know about that DCP mod that it was usable for CV as wel hahahahah! 20 minutes ago, Zuihou_Kai said: DCP triggers instantly. Fires burn for 5 seconds and with flag for only 4 seconds. Hmm. It is even worse than I thought. So I'd have to set fire every 5 seconds. ARGHH. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No you cant, since their DCP is active for one minute straight, so they are immune to fire/flood during DCP-active time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, maybe I should have put "set them on fire 10x during the 90 secs after they used DCP and the 60 secs ran out". Usually when a CV gets spotted he's screwed anyway as it is only a cruiser and, except T10 with the armoured deck, they take pens everywhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Asking for a friend. I'd say that "feature" is working on ALL CVs but only available to those that paid lots of sheep to RNGesus. Or it is made sufferable to those that haven't... The disadvantage (for the spreaders), it leaves a gap to the next torpedo large enough for a BB to get through. That is, if he cared enough to send sheep to RNGesus but that should be self-explanatory. Can be an advantage in Shokaku, but not so much in Kaga. Or Ark Royal.

The RTS fighter was bar none the single most reliable compliment farm I ever found in the game, as a well timed strafe would utterly shred an incoming bomber attack. My personal record is wiping out something silly like six Kaga(? I think, I can't remember exactly) squads in a single strafe. 24 kills in a single strafe, even if the enemy Atlanta wiped that fighter squad seconds later. A beautiful moment that I will treasure forever. Understandable... I wasn't really tactile able to get proper strafing runs done - which was a reason that after they got implemented I only played no-strafing tiers - but I am sure I wasn't the only player who didn't get strafing working. And against the better CVs players the non so skilled players often didn't get a strafe to work... therefor miniscule... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think some of the players forget how buggy the interface could be. Might have been a large part of why they decided to change it. The autopilot in current version is probably a transplant of the RTS one. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
