They are quite good if a skilled player is using them and only kind of meh if you are not so good. Carrier play is no longer about getting control of the air, it is about farming damage, nothing more. When I started looking at the post battle results for the reworked carriers and their number of plane kills was pathetically small to non existent, I knew it as a disaster. I loved the RTS carriers because I could spec out my attack aircraft to defend themselves against fighters and use my fighters to destroy incoming red planes. The real sea battles of WW2 were fought between carriers and this GIGANTIC aspect of CV play has been removed from the game with the rework. Historically CVs would ignore DDs and light cruisers and go for high priority targets like BBs and heavy cruisers. As it is now CVs just cause harrasment damage, mostly to lighter ships. I dont know what the old CV gameplay was like as Ive only been playing a couple of years, but I think to make CVs more fun for everyone they should be more like what they were historically, which is high-risk/high-reward type of gameplay. RTS was evaluated as having several problems which required a redesign of the system instead of being able to address it with a few tweaks as is suggested.įrom one bird farm sailor (USS America CV66 80-83 and USS Kitty Hawk CV63 94-98) to another WELCOME BACK! You are not the only person to request the return of RTS, however we have moved away from that style to the current version we have in the game. The old school and current play style needs to be merged.ĭoes the game even read these posts? Am I the only one here asking for a change? Will I chase a submarine for spotting and not be able to defend myself from an attacking DD? This would stress the importance for TEAMPLAY and strategy. Put two carriers to a game, increase the rewards for shooting down planes. In the life of carriers, they rarely fight alone.

History shows that carriers used multiple squadrons, attack angle and formations. I would like to believe that this game follows some historical record and account, hence the ships history being posted in game. Buff AA and increase the penalty for unsafe approaches. Implement realistic turn angles of attack. Bring back the old school real time strategy that CVs incorporated. The current play style for CVs in WoWs is a fall from grace from what it used to be. First off, let me start by saying that I am 2015 WoWs player and a 2009 WOT player, a Navy Veteran(both ship and squadron), a avid fan of history and a gamer that never posts in the forums.
