WG is this still World of Warships ?

It seems to me that you are trying to turn the game into World of Aircraft !

What is with the constant addition of all the aircraft.

CV's

Hybrids

Dutch cruisers with airstrike

Anti submarine strikes

The clue is in the title guys, World of Warships........SHIPS, get it !

Long ago, when WG saw this game as an easy cashgrab on everything, is when they lost all track of what this game was and what it potentially could have been. The future was bright, not going to lie there, but now they just make problems and sell solutions on a never ending circle, because fixing issues doesnt sell.

Umm :Smile_ohmy: I consider Scenarios a very big problem and wouldn´t mind if WG gave us a whole bunch of these "problems" (Cherry blossom, where are you?).

I would be fine with WG selling some new T6-T8 ships to fix this problem :Smile_hiding:

The problem is that those kind of problems create another whole set of problems and...Weegee is good at selling "solutions" to "problems" not actually solving them....

CV's: Warships
Hybrids: Warships
Dutch Cruisers: well, we (Dutch) pretended they were warships, so glad they get some external weapon to make them more competetive with real Warships.

Anti submarine strikes: something alot of warships do. and alot more interesting that alot of other things warships do, like getting repaired, training, just sailing around, emergency relief missions, etc etc

Am I a bad person for pointing out that carriers are warships by definition?

No. Indeed carriers, hybrids, submarines, planes, helicopters all fit into world of warships. That's why the complaints should never be about "realism". They should be about quality and business practices.

No, but you are omitting that they are implemented in poor taste.

:Smile_trollface: While the gentlemanly lobbing of AP shells Jutland style would be nice, credit where its due to WG for keeping the carriers historically accurate in spirit if not in execution.

Due to the rapidly declining popularity of World of Warplanes, we - the elite professionals in the gaming industry have decided to migrate WoWP to WoWS for a more inclusive player base. 

 

See you, captains!

WoWs: "May contain traces of ships"

 

Is that an Allergen warning for WoWP players moving to WoWS?

Basically this. Once the carriers got going they were the only counter to each other. Everything else was second fiddle for control of the sea. 

Quick side note. Carriers were and still are considered Capital Ships, cruisers and below are not. :) So carriers are pretty well implemented. Lesser ships should learn to serve their carrier.:Smile_trollface:

Funny, but it was kinda true. If escorted properly, carriers were pretty OP (and continue to be so).

Submarines may disagree.

In WOWS rework carriers ignore eachother. :Smile_sceptic:

So that's not it...

actually, not anymore. they are great if you are attack a faraway country that has no real counter to it, but a modern navy has alot of options for destroying a carrier, and no matter the escort, you can always overwhelm the defences with a overload of s2s missiles. 

 

about any task they can do can be done better and cheaper with drones and loitering ammo, that can be launched from much smaller ships.
