      @@HashMyth Exactly my thoughts. Most veteran players have all the better ships and don't need more without them making crazy new ships like this. If they lose them they already got their money in the past. If they push any of them to purchase new things to "keep up" then they win. The only thing that can stop this is for enough of the player base to stop playing that they can't fill queues anymore. This is one reason they recently announced the bot changes

      Think about it, you can do 2 to 3 Co-Op battles to 1 PvP.
      I've been playing PvE only on my epic games account and it's way easier to grind due to the AI being so predictable.
      I see the bot change as a slap to get PvE players to buy better ships because of how easy you can dodge and how often the AI aim is horrible with shots.

    Flak bursts are a good counter to this, though not for the reason you think... but you need a ship (or multiple ships) with flak bursts maxed out.
    Once flak bursts hit a certain magic number, they blind the cv player for several seconds moments before attacking, and even if the planes dodge them, it makes it very hard to accurately land rockets or torpedoes on anything not turning at glacial speeds.. (like light cruisers)
    Oh, and there is no mod to counteract flak blinding as far as I know...

I did run into one of these and after he dropped me a couple of times, he gave up and went on to easier pray. I kick CVs asses and frustrate the hell out of them. I've tried to get the "how to" out to Jingles and others but to no avail! The old general AA ship positioning rules have changed "and" have been added to. Yes I'm a DD main, Cruisers can react "some" and BBs can't do much at all. There's where the CV OP stands out! They are OP I agree and tier 10 CVs are very OP but they still can't do much to me for what I've learned! There is a way to negate the puki-bastards but admittedly it is getting more and more difficult.

    """Sealord""" I've sent you (and Jingles) an 82 AA kills game in the past whereas I also sank both CVs in the process and very much as a lone wolf and I made it look like child's-play.
    (Addmitadly, that's not always the case)
    Not all good AA fights result in a good "comprehensive" AA learned video but just ask and I'll eventually get one to you.
    How? MC Hammer style: "Can't Touch This", it's doable but there's new/additional rules to follow and some old rules that'll get you killed and need be thrown out!

    Colossus on Colossus violence is not an option, it's aparant, every game I played with that thing so far, was against another Colossus and it was always about who can kill the other dude faster :D
    I don't really feel like this CV will be a big deal in the long run, the german AP strikes were a huge topic after release too, but people got used to them , they know they have to angle to avoid getting nuked and that's how it's going to be with this ship as well. Kaga and Chkalov are both vastly superior T8 Carriers and they will stay dominant.

    I can agree, full ship deletion is a bit much. But at the same time. If you just present a perfect target to the carrier and do nothing to not let him eat your broadside. You deserve to get punished. The Weser can do the same shit (I know cause I’ve done it, though it relies a tad more on RNG to get a good spread)
    There’s also the same time this is very gimmicky. Def needs to be toned down, but gimmicks where 1 squadron is god and the other two are meh is….. just bad.
    Each should have a proper purpose not just one being what you want to use 80% of the time
    I have a lot of things to say about carriers in the game. I’m a carrier main myself. Are they perfect and balanced. I’d have to say no.
    Are they as bad as some people say they are. Maybe at times, but I just don’t personally see it. I’ve never had a massive issue with carriers, yes they can be annoying if you want to do something and it cock blocks you but a carriers job is to push players into positions they do not want to be in and T them up for their team.
    Things like the super CVs I find hell, those jets are stupid and absolutely unfair.
    Same goes for the Soviet line where they can strike from outside AA range. Hell I once dropped a 9 kill game in my Serov doing 161K damage, with doing at least 50% damage to each person I killed. Yes I absolutely earned that by playing like a gigabrain, but at the same time, I should not have gotten away with it in the way I did, any other carrier I would’ve had a 6 kill game around 120K in the same situation. Soviet carriers need to be nerfed into the ground, or have their one and done drop done away with
    I also find hybrid ships to be an issue. The Ise is fun as a shitpost gimmick and something that existed but can we just not with the rest of them.
    Main changes I want to see to CVs. One remove all the “auto” stuff. We aren’t helpless if you can’t manage our own resources you shouldn’t play the class. I should be able to manually throw depth charge planes, manually launch my own fighters, and manually use my own damage control.
    Second remove the fighter consumable. Replace it with an RTS fighter (or several) that you can send around the lap to guard areas, giving the CVs some proper counter play against each other and a role to play as support for their teams.
    You could do the same thing with the depth charge planes.
    As for AA…. Eh personally I don’t think it’s terrible like everyone things it is.
    If your off by yourself you shouldn’t have the AA to fight off entire strikes, generally you’ll get 2 to 4 planes depending on what ship your in if he attacks you once or twice, again depending on your own AA set up. the AA ships like Atlanta, Austin, nevesky, and a few others already inflict such devastating damage to squadrons in the long run they are plenty effective.
    Which I feel reins true to how things could play out in real life. If a lil ol ship by itself and 10 planes attack it it might get a couple, but that’s beside the point.
    Even if there’s a bubble of 4 ships and they “somehow” break through, but lose their entire squadron in the first place. Assuming you didn’t get detonated, a small chunk of HP I think is an equal trade for a full squadron, especially in the early game.
    Sure most carriers over the first 5 or so minutes can somehwat recover from that loss, but they never truly will, and any subsequent mistakes or just loss of many planes has a massively profound impact on their ability to exert influence on a match. A CV is only as good as it’s ability to field squadrons.
