A prime example of why full strike layouts always get owned by 2-2-2 layouts.  Thank god WOWS don’t introduce limited ammo per game! Pilots were throwing bullets out of the cockpit window and were hitting something. 16 planes dead in one lemming train mess with 2 tier 8 IJN planes with focus fire. NASTY!

 

I must have come close to that number in my fully upgraded AA Cleveland too. AA power is crazy.

 

Any other experiences peeps? Can anyone beat that? Feel proud today, but you can shot me out the water..I can take it.

The CV must be incredibly stupid to feed that amount of planes into you...

 

Well done anyways I guess.

Awesome aircraft kill count.

 

But come on, so many CV players are so bad that I can get away with a Ranger with 0-1-3 setup with solo stats like this:

I'm starting to think that many players are just using BOT programs to grind through their CVs....many are really that bad imho......

Check my stats....you'll find quite a lot of games "beyond tier 5" (733 x tier VI, 933 x tier VII, 624 x tier 8, 79 x tier IX)....also got to rank 1 in RB season 2 in a tier 8 DD...Tashkent....

 

In general I just have more fun in mid tiers, so what?

 

I also "dare" to play 99% SOLO in randoms, I don't need support from 1-2 divison mates in 84% of my games to muster enough courage to play (like other guys do). ;)

70 in open; more I think in CBT.

 

2-2-2 is never owns 0-1-3 if you know what you are doing.

 

TBH there are just are not enough decent CV players but there are better than me out there.

 

It might help if "Clear Skies" was restored to the original requirement but dare I say no Soviet Cvs.

 

EDIT the biggest idiots are CA and BBs that will not initially cover you but cream their "brown trousers" when a DD gets within 15 -20kms.

You have your reputation i don't give a damn how you try to justify it.

 

Must suck to not be able to have people around you enjoy playing with, i guess its hard to find them when you stick around tier 5 constantly.

 

Gl spanking plebs at tier 5 buddy.

 

peace

You can't read stats, huh?

 

Just lol dude, if I didn't care for my wife and kids so much I could play divison ALL DAY LONG.

 

Right now I'm stomping plebs at tier 7, 8, 9 - these clueless guys are EVERYWHERE. ;)

Going above tier 8 in CVs just wouldn’t be fun at all. I was happy staying at tier 7 (IJN of course) but the Team Battle forced my hand...HATE YOU WG.  AA is just too crazy higher up.

Just do it like _FTD_  -  play high tier games in a division of 3 and pretend you are brave and good! ;)

I didn't feel the urge to call a guy with 2,3k games at tier VI - IX a "tier 5 pleb spanker" - this wannabe hero did. ;)

 

Whatever, he's on my ignore list now and I'm out of here! ;)

70, got that exact score twice (as 2-2-2 shokaku and 3-1-1 Ryujo), the second time the game ended right as my last strafe started. It has less to do with good play on my end and more to do with bad play on the other end though.

 

Edit: highest in non-cv was 35 on atlanta.

Each to their own.  Play to enjoy the game m8.  Flying planes though murdering amounts of flak at 7.5 km with nothing but tin foil as armour does not, to me, equate as “fun”.  The only thing that makes it though is the disconnected wreckage of the once cockpit.

 

In a bit trigger lad.

Well their not bad are they Peffers.  We have all seen BAD players (like the CV player I was up against). By-the-way, I’m not that good really....Or am I?

Peffers. Ive just moved this to this tread as its my honest opinon on why i believe full strike layouts arent as good as the old 2-2-2.

 

"A CV should bring flexibility to the team. That what it was designed for.  The ability to deal with a number of different situations. That’s why I believe the 2-2-2 of the tier 7-8 IJN CVs are hard to beat, for me anyway.

 

If the enemy has the same layout then it’s anyone’s game, good luck.

 

If the enemy has a US full fighter layout 2-0-2 then you will always match their fighters, even though you will always lose (unless you get a lucky focused).  But that allows your torps and bombers to fly past and cause havoc. Two enemy fighter planes just can’t be everywhere, trying to defend and intercept 6 IJN planes. Plus they have a longer re-arm periods.

 

If the enemy have a US full strike layout 0-1-3, if you catch and find them, their toast! Granted, you wont destroy all of them most of the time but at least 2-3 groups.  I ALWAYS target the torps first (real damage dealers), then pick off the slower bombers with focus fire.  That leaves my torps and bombers to again, wreak havoc knowing that nothing in the air will pester them.  AA is a different story J

 

Full strike layouts tend to go for the quick “sink the CV quick” approach.  Which means they skirt round the sides of the map. Easy to pick up and very easy to kill.  You have all the time in the world if you catch them.    

 

If the IJN player has a 3-1-2 layout, then god help the US Full strike player, not pretty."

​Gentlemen, only?

 

Of course they are good players.

 

2-0-2 works as well because bad players never split strike forces.  I forget my biggest single strafe total.
