Remove the class or start reworking it. Current status is just frustrating

They have been frustrating for non-CV players since the reeework. So you might want to be a bit patient when waiting for WGs reaction...

How do you torp that easily? If it's not a russian DD/new german DD line i find it quite challenging to torpedo them.. how can you hit them easily?

A lot of practice and reading their mind basically. It's easy to hit them when torping from behind. 

Also paying close attention to how they accelerate when torping their broadside and leading correctly. 

 

Basic rule for leading a torp is always lead more than you think you need to lead

Guess you can use tiny ivans when they arrive to stop the smolls from getting severe rickets 24/7.

And bouncing vodkas as well forgot about dem.

Got it, but do you use the torpedo skills for that? (+5% with the upgrade, +5% from captain skills = 55 knots)

no they increase arming distance so that makes it harder to hit DDs.

Haven't TiTs got short end of the stick with recent rocket change? Like, 5s "preparation" time instead 2-3s on usual "fart in general direction" rockets?

Really wish they would, instead of adding more CV's to an already unstable class, instead go back and update all the other CV's to try and bring better balance to the game.

Spoiler

And while they are at it the art department could update the USN and IJN CV's which are looking a tad dated now (no glass effects on the bridges windows, less detailing etc.) and correct some of the more bizarre issues with some of the planes, eg. Ranger having her early 1942 wartime F4F Wildcats but her* 1941 Peacetime neutrality patrol Devastators and Vindicators.

Pin on F-4F Wildcat

Should be if were going 1941

Asisbiz Grumman F4F 3 Wildcat VF 41 Black 41F4 BuNo 1850 pilot Charlie  Shields CV 4 USS Ranger 1940 0A

 

* And her TB Avengers and DB Vindicators aren't correct either for 1941 - Her Devastator's are actually Enterprises 1940's Devastator squadron as noted by the Blue tail colour which belonged to Enterprises air group and 6 - T marking for Torpedo Bomber Squadron VT-6 which was embarked aboard 'Easy E' rather than VT-4 which was created for Ranger. VT-4 was also activated in 1942 AFTER Pearl Harbour as Ranger didn't have Torpedo storage until around about October 1941 while she was being updated but even if she did have VT-6 active in 1941, Rangers peace time neutrality patrol tail ID colouration was Green not Blue and the side marking should be 4 - T - 5 or if were going for the pre activated 1941 planes it would be 42 - S - 5 but even then it would still be wrong as her planes were painted white/Grey in 1941/early 1942.

VS-42

Douglas TBD-1 photos on DetailSITE!

 then later

Douglas-TBD-Devastator

(Before you say, It's one of Enterprises but apparently the colour scheme was similar by that point)

 

While she also has Saratoga's Vindicators (4th one down - look familiar) 

Vought SB2U Vindicator Techmod 72131

SB2U 1Vindicator colour 6

 

Which should be

WINGS PALETTE - Vought SB2U Vindicator/Chesapeake - USA

 

For 1940's or:

SB2U-3-VS41-Ranger.png

SB2U-2-VS42-CV4-Ranger-ca41.png

For late 1941/early 1942.
