[GR-H] HipHopHippopotamus Players 200 posts 7,189 battles Report post #1 Posted May 12, 2017 (edited) As the title says.At first i read about the upcoming premium us carrier Uss enterprise and i thought about the famous one,the largest warship ever built the glorious CVN-65 but then i look at the stats for a second time and i see"242m length"and i am like wtf,i thought it was 341m long,so i check again and i see that it is the cv-6 and i am devastated.For a solid 10 mins i was soooo happy about the enterprise,but then....WG please make the CVN-65 a premium ship in game.U already have late 50s ship designs implemented in the game.......

[UTW] ShinGetsu Weekend Tester, In AlfaTesters 8,985 posts 7,359 battles Report post #11 Posted May 12, 2017 (edited) The CV-6 Enterprise is much more famous and a must have in a WW2 game about warships... Not having it ingame was as absurd as if they forgot the Yamato. Also P-51 Mustang isn't a plane landing on CV. Like it's name shows it, since P-XX fighters are land based.

Okay, first off the USN never flew Mustangs. Second, what's the point of introducing a nuclear powered CV when you're just going to fill it with old propeller planes it never carried? Third, the first combat aircraft launched from the CVN-65 was the F8U. That's the absolute oldest aircraft you can historically put on her without making stuff up. You're clearly not an enthusiast, so why do you want the ship to be added? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[UTW] ShinGetsu Weekend Tester, In AlfaTesters 8,985 posts 7,359 battles Report post #14 Posted May 12, 2017 (edited) P-51 isn't even a late-war aircraft actually. Mid-war at most for the first versions.^^ Last late-war props aircraft landing on CV would be the F4U Corsair, and they didn't even use it much on CV as it was a pain to land on them with it. They mostly were used by the Marines who landed them on airfields. F8F Bearcat comes next as the last propeller that was used on carrier, and it only was used during the Indochine War, flying under French colors. It didn't even make until Korea, as jets replaced almost all props during the 50's. (Carriers used F2H Banshee, F9F Panther, and for heavy fighters and bomber, AD-2 Skyraider which is a prop) (And don't forget the infamous Po-2. never underestimate the Po-2, AKA the only (russian) biplane that scored a kill against a jet !) The point is : you can't use 50's CV ingame. They uses post-WW2 jets. Midway and Hakuryuu are already using prototypes planes and late/post-war planes actually... Midway having F8F and prototypes bombers, and Hakuryuu some sort of J7W1 as fighters (a prototype) and Wakusei as DB which are basically a project of a project of a project from after Midway.

[UTW] ShinGetsu Weekend Tester, In AlfaTesters 8,985 posts 7,359 battles Report post #17 Posted May 12, 2017 (edited) Well, CV-6 Enterprise is much more important anyway. She saw most if not all important battle in the Pacific War, got so badly damaged that the Japanese Navy thought they sunk her three times, which earned her "The Grey Ghost" as a surname, and made it (almost) safely til the end of the war. And she got scraped in 1958 as they couldn't modernize her with a nuclear engine propulsion. Well, at least, she didn't suffer the same fate as USS Saratoga, Nagato, Prinz Eugen and so many other glorious ship at the Bikini Atoll, poor victims of American A-bomb tests.

jss78 Players 1,292 posts 12,866 battles Report post #20 Posted May 13, 2017 Enterprise CV-6 is arguably more famous. Just look up her WW2 service on Wikipedia!Also probably the single most obvious premium that NEEDED to be added. Since the lead ship of the class Yorktown would be a tech tree ship, Enterprise was always destined to be a premium. I'm also a fan of the CV-65, but she's simply the wrong era for the game.

This is like asking for the Kaga class helicopter destroyer to be added to the game just because the Kaga had name recognition.

TheCinC Quality Poster 1,695 posts 9,500 battles Report post #22 Posted May 13, 2017 Maybe in the far future when they add more modern ships. But I doubt we will ever get that far. Missiles would be very hard to implement, due to their range. They've already had to decrease the range of guns, as otherwise you'd be oneshotted the moment the game started. I think we'll have a starship Enterprise in game before we have a nuclear powered carrier, maybe as part of an April Fools mission or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
