I've yet to play enough to confidently provide feedback on the WG Discord, but so far it does feel a bit clunky. Dive Bombers are my main concern because their reticle isn't aligning fast enough to pull off a reliable drop. On the other hand, those with AA are able to trim down the current CV strikes.
The big issue with AA doing AA things is that in terms of attacking aircraft (and we don't know about single flight strikers like the Russian CVs), they only hit the few aircraft on that exact run. The rest are unharmed. Not very helpful at stopping the return strikes in my testing.
I think that was the intention: to trim down attacking flights, without flat-out deplaning the CV. Still, it does feel like a CV can still hound a single target at the cost of not being able to do full drops. Given, it's not a balance test, so we won't see actual balance testing until the mechanics test is satisfactory. Overall, it feels like they're over-engineering possible solutions when the main issues are: fighter spotting, single-attack squadrons, and being able to dump full strikes regardless of AA.
At this point, all they seem to be doing is lurching from one bad idea to the next. No matter how many times it's fed back to them they simply refuse to understand what a sunk cost fallacy is.
I really appreciate you watching and commenting on this and the other videos. It is incredibly kind of you and helpful for the channel. Thank you so very much! This test really felt undercooked and not thought out. Perhaps that's the point - to find issues early and make dramatic changes? But a game in this state at the age of this game I think should be bringing more mature changes to the table. Just my opinion but that's how I feel.
Agreed. Sadly, quality of life improvements for the players seem to be a lower priority than cranking out copy/paste premium ships and doing ahistorical collabs.
This reework makes think more complicated and unbalanced. In final phase of the game when you are shoulder to shoulder with enemy team and to win you have to find the last DD it will be very difficult. Moreover I have see so far only tier X CV videos. Thay are top tier: imagine what will mean for a CV being bottom tier. With current system when this happens you do some predrop to avoid being deplaned and try to spot for the first half of the game. Then when enemy are less and weakened you start to attack isolated ships. Now that the scouting is so limited to be bottom tier will mean to be just useless !
You are making excellent points. That comes with this incredible complexity. Feels like they wanted to get extra use out of the system they built for submarines. So they applied it to the up/down/spotting/damage/timers of this CV rework.
Wait, is this a FDG-flavored troll? Appreciate you watching and leaving a comment buddy - it is beyond helpful at this stage on the channel. And that other stuff you do? Pretty awesome. Thanks!
Opinion only: The CV rework is a reaction to the loss of players combined with the speed at which new players are joining. My own record keeping (I log the server population when I go live to monitor trends) indicates the number of players is trending down. This is not good. They have long known that a large number of players don't like the CV interactions. They are testing this change only because they need to do so - not because they wish to make us happy (opinion). Even as tested (so far as I write this - it will change further) it protects CVs and fails to fix pain points. Overly complex. Reuses submarine mechanics (diving and climbing).

Well put!
They never will...
They only seem to react when they must to stop people leaving the game.

They could be investing the time and upgrading their hardware to fix the aiming bug that has been going on now for more than a year

done my dear.
Thank you so much Shin! Always enjoy you stopping by. Hope life is treating you well.
Yeah the devs screwed up the cv’s worse then they were before. And they were bad before the supposed fix.
It is hard to understand why this approach was taken for sure. Thanks for watching and leaving a polite comment!
i think they should leave well enough alone, maybe put the money and effort from this change into getting the New Jersey into the game

Seems clumsy and convoluted.
It feels better when you get the hang of It
No argument from me at all.
So stupid should of just done mini-map spotting only too simple of a fix.
I hear you. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment.
this rework looks so bad... i think i might not return to the game (been gone for 3 months now).
I appreciate you watching and understand your feelings. Hopefully they take user feedback in and fix things.
@@aerospacenewsgaming We are the feedback... and none of them ever listen to us

Eh I stopped playing after they changed CV’s from RTS ages ago
You are not alone. The way they work now has turned a lot of people away from the game.
Not a big fan of this, I wish they would of just tried making it mini map spotting only it was so simple
Indeed. Far too complicated to fix simple problems.
