As a CV main, I have been feeling that the developers have been ignoring us in in-game events. There have been no CV based combat missions for a long time, iirc there were a few bomb hit and rocket hit missions in the fly strike win event over a year ago. I do appreciate we are ~10% of the community, but it would be nice to have a CV based event and/or year long marathon to encourage play. I do note that there have been generic earn xp in a CV missions, but they feel rather staleand uninspiring. I also note, that it has never been possible to earn a premium carrier for free. I have a few proposals below:

 

  • Run a CV based event - Nice, but would run the risk of crashing the matchmaker
  • Run a year long CV directives event, to encourage CV play without crushing the matchmaker.
  • Add more premium CVs for earned currencies (coal, community tokens etc).
  • Add a permanent CV points earned by playing games in a CV to swap for CV based rewards?
  • Add some CV based missions to directives which are not earn XP or credits, something which actually makes playing CV feel a bit different.

 

I would also propose:

 

  • Stop selling the TX CV as stock, 3 sets of 36k xp upgrades feels a bit discriminatory against the CV as no other ship in the game needs further upgrading at TX.
  • Improve the research beareau to make regrinding CV lines more generous.
  • Give CVs some way of fighting submarines.

 

I do appreciate that surface ship players might dislike these ideas, but it does feel as if the developers are treating CV players as an afterthought in terms of events and it's beginnning to detract from my game experience.

 

What do people think?

I mean, I'm a CV main so I'm used to being reported.... I knew this topic was going to be controversial as most players want fewer CVs, but they're in the game, but why specificially do you disagree apart from CVs bad?

1. Sounds good

2. Sounds good

3. I guess I wouldnt mind few more freebies but you theoretically CAN earn enough gold in game to get a premium one...

4. Not sure what you mean but there is no need for separate class based rewards

5. Well you have the bomb, torp etc hit missions as well as spot x etc not sure what else can you do

6. Yeah thats annoying although some DDs still need to research torps

7. Yeah they dropped the ball there, prob because they were not sure if they ll add the odd tier or not at that time

8. Well IDK actually having a hard counter is not such a bad thig for CVs

On point 5, i don't recall any recently... The last i recall was about a year ago...

 

CVs iirc the most expensive class to buy premiums for, and i'm not sure why.

I personally think, that reporting is a function, if someone breaks the rule and wants to report that to the host. So it must be something, where the host is agreeing with the report reason. I doubt WG agrees with reporting CV players for playing CV ;)

It is called "unsporting behavior" and it is precise. Using CVs is unsporting :)

Not saying that, but if you aren't playing well enough every game you lose more karma than you gain that's just how it is

Just to be clear, I am not asking for a CV buff (apart from a way of fighting subs), but only that we get some events sometimes to make the game more interesting.

Shimakaze, Harugumo, Zao, Gearing, Grozovoi, Z-52, GK (when it was a tech ship) all have modules that require research, so it's not just T10 CVs.

Plus all the surface ship lines need to be researched at every tier, so I'd say that is a small price to pay.

To be serius for a sec. We got to much CVs in game and CVs are spoiling the game of rest of ships. Thejre is 0 reasons for us to make CVs more popular so we need to cut rewards for cvs players down not make it better.

Only CV missions most players would want is "Score X shot down by fighter" ribbons.

I couldnt care less what they agree with. When they start listening to their playerbase, then maybe i will care what WG agree with.

Shimakaze. She starts with 20km torpedoes, which are not that usefull. From what I remember, T10 carriers are playable even in stock configuration.

 

Reasearching tier 10 carrier requires less XP than other classes, so it is fair, that regrinding CV line offers les research points.

 

Absence of ASW weapons was adressed to WG long timne ago and still nothing. Leone doesnt have depth charges for exapmle. It is sad, but on the other hand CV has like 60s Damage control party that insta repairs fires, flooding and sonar pings. I mean, which other class has that? :Smile_hiding:
