Lost A Ranked Battle Star Because A CV Player Decided To Focus Me

Thanks for that @WG Devs.

 

A player with a floating airport at the back of the map risking nothing while playing a flying game overlapping upon this ship combat game which I could nothing about to counter in any meaningful way decided to focus me from the start of the battle until my demise resulting in me losing a star due being unable to contribute in any meaningfully way due to swarms of aircraft attacks torpedoing my ship or setting in fire. 

 

Sure, you might like to place blame on the CV player, not at all though the a-hole does clearly understand he's being an a-hole when he plays that toxic broken class. Or you might prefer to place blame on me for supporting my teammates cruiser to a cap instead of everyone on the team staying together an pushing just one cap? No, that's not a sensible comment either. What I and others can and WILL do however, is place the blame with YOU, the game developers or balance department for this crap "balance" you still haven't sorted with this aircraft game option you've placed in this "World of Warships... And Airports... and Subs".

 

That is all, carry on mulling over the stats to decided where the problems are in this game and what players want etc.

Maybe it wouldn't have mattered, but what ship were you in?

Does it matter? Once a flying tumor decides you are not going to have fun, you can't realistically do anything against it.

Some Tier 9s can hold on against a Tier 8 CV long enough for the team to push and win, if their own CV does something more productive...

I've learned that you can very well fight back! Your counterplay is annoying the CV player: Either with skillful use of the AA sector, costing him planes which take some time to replenish or you smoke up in your DD, costing him precious time where he could otherwise pad his stats.

 

That's the counterplay. Annoy him while he steamrolls you. Because the longer he takes to kill you, the less overall damage he does and at some lucky point in time, he will rage quit the game.

So there are CV in this game? They even dare to participate in ranked? Sometimes they focus on a certain ship/player and you noticed just now? Want to cry more? Whats your age? Six years old?

 

So many questions...

"So many questions" Those weren't questions so much as a transparently weak effort at sarcasm or humor, possibly an effort to look intelligent.

 

Well, fail in all cases and not because you don't agree with my points you're perfectly entitled to you opinion of course, no, it's just because your post was so f'ing weak in its entirety.

don't believe someone tells you that you can handle cvs by dodging ...

 

played in battle and there were cyclone , i had nothing to do just trying to dodge as much as i can .. look at what happened : 

 

killed 16 planes , is the kills matters ? no

useless AA ...

 

i reported this guy with all my reports ... and for sure , blacklisted ...  this is a very low play ... there is nothing you can do  dodging didn't work !!! ,, a pure waste of time .

WG think that CV are balanced by the fact that - with some notable exceptions - only the worst players are actually using them in PVP. Apparently, they have the same idea re. submarines.

It kinda does, yes. A ship with "good AA" is a less appealing target for the average CV enjoyer. And a Ranked player nowadays has to always pick the BEST ships in order to win or save a star. Radar cruisers. Gunboat DDs. Overmatching BBs. It's kinda sad that one can't just rely on skill alone, but it is what it is. You need strong ships with good AA. As useless as AA is, it can make a difference, if only from a psychological point of view. Sailing around in a Tirpitz or a Lepanto is like begging to be farmed by enemy CV.

You should blame the devs. Thing is that CV is just so easy and OP in ranked that if you pick it you can be sure that you got a High Cal medal & you will not be losing a star. Ranked is all about getting those starts on the expense of other players & CV is a pretty optimal way to do it. As long as you know how to play one effectively, you are absolutely unlikely to lose a star & probably win over 50% of the games gaining the star, so if you are good on CV and you are in for the rewards it is the easiest way to grab that steel.

it is really hard feelings , what should i do ? i really doing my best to handle this anger and not say bad words and swear , every report takes some of my anger , so let it be xD

 

also i dont play cv , i started playing cvs because my hate to cvs went too high ... so i played several cvs then found it that best cv for hunting cvs is the Immelmann , so i got it for coal ...

 

you said i am not well playing cvs ? is it well play to just hit someone cannot fightback ? 

 

i dont find that interesting for me .  i just spot the other cv and kill him , after that i search for hiding dds like shima and halland , because i hate this hide and torp play , so i spot them or kill them ...

 

the rest is cruisers and bbs ,,, i give them free plane kills or i charge with my cv and fight them with secondary's or even brawl them and sometimes i win :Smile_trollface:

Oh no..... :fish_boom:

 

It's better venting out by making a break rather than going to play a class that you yourself hate. Idk what to tell you. But it's not the solution cause you are ruining battles for your own team, so not only the enemy CV is smashing them, their CV is kinda bad/useless for the first minutes of the battle . 

The only CV that is easily smashable and killable is Nakhimov. The rest? not so much.

Welcome to late 2018, when REEEworked CVs already were established as griefing class with no meaningful counterplay during public tests.
