Nakhimov seems to be underperforming, especially in ranked. Please buff.

I did it because to get XP in Pobeda desperate measures needed to be taken. It's just trash. So trash that doing damage against surface ships who use A and D keys is kind of impossible

Did it work? This horrible garbageship is killing me.

Oh you poor thing... 

 

Meanwhile midway drops you for 22k damage per attack run which it can do up to 3 in a row with double fires sticking afterwards. 

 

You don't know how good you have it against RU CVs :D

That has never happened to me. Whereas in two runs the Russian Bias Botes generate 2-3 fires each time. And they send out wave after wave. 

As I said, malice. 

All CVs suck, but the Russian ones are complete crappy to play against.

Thats a lot of star constellations that need to align for me to reliably do damage though

True. Also, I only go after DDs if they are too much of  a nuisance.

 With radar cruisers galore and all that, there are a lot of ships better equipped to deal with them. 

But if I have to, I'll kill them all. Aligning my own stars... but true, Pobeda, not so much.

I think that's what many surface ship players can say...

oh...

wait...

You meant that differently?!?

well just another way of saying that the majority of CV players sadly suck and you will likely never experience true suffering. Be grateful

That's the one silver lining of WG monetizing griefing .... most griefers are bad players

Nothing amusing about it. He came to have a fun match in a fun ship. All you did was grief him to death, and then brag about how you killed a ship who couldn't stop you, while taking zero risk yourself.

Disgusting.

Can anyone pls tell me why we have Russian CV´s?

 

I feel like these are really the CV´s that are breaking the game. They make most fighter protection and AA usless. Fighters (esspecially ship catapult fighters) only prevent you from being attacked by further attacks from the same squadron. Seems fair. But these russian squadrons release such a massive payload at once and are gone. Fighters only go after them after they dropped the payload if at all.

 

AA? Unless you have russian ships with 7 KM AA and 4 KM mid range AA your AA is pretty useless. they drop bombs well outside the medium AA range and rocket run is also initiated before coming into dangerous AA zone.

 

Just [edited]these russian CV´s. Scrap them and things would be better. I hate nothing more than russian CV´s currently. Adding them was completely unnecessary.

 

Maybe i am just a conspiracy theorist, but i get the feeling that WG wants us all to play only russian ships. Because russian ships are the only ships able to have at least a minimum chance against russian CV´s. Personally i do feel pushed to do so currently.

Allow me to tell you a story.....

 

In the rest of the the world the Soviet Navy was known for three things. Blowing up. Sinking itself. Bumping into things. Often a combination of all three. Sometimes they wouldn't actually get that far - because someone else would come along and do it for them (Japanese, British Trawlers, German tourists, etc.). They are the Krusty the Clown of naval forces - particularly in the big-gun era. Their submarines got better later in the Cold War but even then they kept the old traditions of self-destruction alive.

 

In WG-land the Soviet Navy was the very best that humanity had to offer. After all, they had scores of supremely powerful battleships, carriers, cruisers, destroyers, submarines. Or at least ideas for them. They would have been brilliant if they'd been built. Probably. Maybe. Okay - maybe a little. We'll gloss over the fact that Soviet industry couldn't make the turbines, fire control, armour plate or gun barrels capable of firing a few shots before wearing out. None of this exists in WOWS. However the paper designs DO exist - with all the wonderful abilities and wishlisting. The latter is what you see in WOWS. 

 

After all, the RU playerbase is a sizeable one and possess a strong nationalistic streak. WG would be fools for not tapping into it by releasing a steady of drumbeat of Objekt/Projekt *insert prototype number here*. You either let it bother you or you laugh at the joke. 

 

That said, Soviet CVs are not the world-enders that I was afraid they'd be. The main issue is that initial alpha strike which can suck if you are the recipient. A haku or FDR is still top of the league table in terms of 'toxic fun-sucking griefing' ships I REALLY would rather not be on the opposing team.

Nonsense. You clearly did not see (rare, but still appearing from time to time) matches with 0 DDs.

the thing is, i really miss DDs when they are not in the game. cant say the same about CVs

[The_Angry_Admiral]

Why is it people think CV planes autospot DD's? There have been plenty of times where I flew over and didn't spot it.

Because they are fast, not constrained by terrain, and can come from literally anywhere? They don't autospot, but they are still by far the best spotters in the game. And thus ruin the game for everybody else.

May I suggest looking at your screen while playing? Though I don't want to sound like a tryhard.

Btw if you didn't spot them how do you know you flew over them?

Planes don't auto spot so I don't know what you've been smoking but you might want to get your money back.

I suggest you get your eyes checked. So if planes don't "auto spot" (whatever the hell that even means), how do they do it? Do CVs press a button to activate radar?

Planes have a passive spot. That means it's on all the time but you aren't guaranteed to spot ships when you fly over. Why do you think a lot of DD's switch off their AA when they are trying hide? 

 

I've been flying over and seen ships appear and then disappear again.

Um....no. It's a guaranteed spot. If a plane enters the AA spotting range it spots the ship with a 100% certainty.

They don't magically decrease their RNG chance of being detected. By turning off their AA, they prevent the AA from blooming their AA detection range. Same thing that other ships do by not firing their main guns and going dark.
