Hey, another cv vid generating a lot of enthusiasm! Keep posting hateful comments, they’re good for the algorithm and promote the vid even more! I will simply remove the ones that are too offensive and prevent their owners from posting any further comments on the channel - yep, I can do that 😊

Thank you DFA for the explanation - see CV still much too powerful - if you play a DD or CL with no smoke and strong air defense your are dead after spotting. So Wargaming should nerf the CV‘s much more or give all ships equivalent air defense. CV spoil the fun in the game.

The first thing if planes are getting shot down by a ship they can’t spot. I agree that if planes are getting shot down, then the ship should be detected. But…. Surface ships should have the ability to turn off AA if that mechanism comes into play. We are never going to truly “balance” CV’s. The very nature of CV’s automatically make them the strongest class in the game. The only other “nerf” that I would like to see in CV’s would be a Dive Bomber aiming mechanic introduced. The click and forget aiming we have now allows for no meaningful counter play. I understand that it would make the class tougher to play but I feel it’s a necessary thing to introduce. Players can dodge torp drops somewhat by maneuvering or smoke, only fair that we have the chance to dodge the dive bomber drops.

I’m rather enjoying the update/nerf. CV’s are still very powerful, it just raises the skill threshold for the CV players. I’m definitely seeing more variety of ships, especially DD’s now, and that’s a bit of fresh air.

I think it’s definitely healthy - it makes blatantly OP ships for their tier like Kaga and Loewenhardt less OP as they can no longer spot as effectively, while most tech tree ships have at least one fighter squadron that gives them a choice - either spot for the team, or defend the team against the opposing CV. It doesn’t change the fact that CVs can still focus down most ships without them having a chance to defend themselves, but at least it reduces the spotting advantage that was an added layer of OP-ness that basically nerfed the ability of most ships that rely on stealth in any game with a CV (and now hybrid BB) in it. Also, in the old system you basically got spotted the instant your AA started firing and there was no ability to disable AA like there is in WoWs PC to stop you from being detected so easily. Since there is no such ability in WoWs blitz, at least this way you don’t get instantly spotted by bombers the second AA starts firing. Maybe a more “realistic” system would be to have a “disable AA” button and have plans spot a ship that fires on it, but since there is no such button this is kind of a compromise. Good CV players will still be very effective, they just have to be more careful with their squadrons.

Thanks DFA…I agree with your point on planes being shot at by undetected ships. With AA being automatic, what do you think about making AA user operated so that a ship can remain undetected by ‘choosing’ not to open up with AA?

Salut DFA, Après la mise à jour du jeu, je dois dire que ma 1ere action a été de sortir mes 2 Graff Zeppelin et de voir ça en batailles...contre les bots 😂 Alors effectivement, les cercles de détection autour des escadrons...bon c'est visuel, c'est sûr, mais c'est peut être trop visuel. 😂 Le changement de mécanique est sympa et c'est effectivement bizarre de plus redouter les chasseurs qui arrivent que les bombardiers et torpilleurs. 😂 Du coup, on peut, peut-être, espérer que certains joueurs de PA vont plus utiliser leurs chasseurs...même si j'en doute. Comme tu l'as notifié, bon point pour les PA avec 2 escadrons de chasseurs. Le point que tu as remonté sur les bateaux non détectés, alors que sa DCA abat des avions est magnifique. Je n'avais pas encore fait attention à ça. Petite question technique. Sur le PA T8 allemand, tu utilises quoi comme bonus d'élites et équipement 1 (chasseur ?). Pour le 2 et le 3, je pense que je prendrai AA petit calibre et dissimulation. J'ai enfin commencé à jouer le T6, 2 ans que je l'avais, et arrêté momentanément à cause du pass avec le California (que j'ai et juste top, même si ultra méga lent). Pas une grande passion pour ce PA, surtout que c'est assez souvent contre des ennemis de T7 que je me retrouve (en croiseur, destroyer, cuirassés, ça ne me dérange pas, mais avec son petit parc d'avion...). Du coup, j'hésite à free exp le reste à obtenir pour débloquer le T8. Bonne journée.

Very well explained buddy I think now game is more playable 😅😅

Even the planes can't trace the AA that shooting at them came from? A bit unrealistic.

This update was a blessing

Seems like it would be an easy fix to say that only "spotted" surface ships will shoot AA... I'd prefer that to ship fires AA and is then auto spotted

Minimap only spotting... ez fix which would remove basically all spotting problems

Oh no the carriers are nerfed what a tradegy Okey nuff with the jokes I think overall the nerf to spotting is a positive change although the execution seems a tad jank. CV spotting before was perhaps a tad too powerful because it can really ruin tactics that rely on concealment like using islands to close the distance or letting your conceal go back down to disengage This was especially bad for ships that rely heavily on concealment to do work like a good chunk of DDs, some cruisers, and even some battleships are practically at the mercy of the carrier lighting them up and ruining their game plan. With the fear of being ruined by the CV when attempting something aggressive, it resulted in matches becoming passive and unfun With the spotting nerf, stuff that needs concealment are now less likely to get ruined making aggressive plays that rely on conceal more feasible in CV games And besides, even nerfed, spotting will still be a very powerful tool for carriers in addition to their other strengths like attacking anyone anywhere and creating crossfires on demand For fixing planes being shot down by invisible surface ships, yeah thats perfectly reasonable. I think someone else mentioned having the ship be spotted once AA starts firing and if we are going that route, i think its fair if we also get the option to turn off AA and secondaries so the surface ship gets the choice to shoot down the planes or stay hidden

Sad i didbt finish all th t10 CV bhs. Because it looks like ruined game, a lot of ships will delete your squadrons before your spot them + shimas will be a cancer again not just for cv. The spoting range equal for all classes looks strange, it's definitely easier to see twice bigger so from the skies.

cv's must be nerfed more, and the best idea - kick cv's off the game.

Fdr? 🤔🤔lotsa debate around that thing

No they did not so have fun LOL.

Thanks for summing up DFA. A change to the current CV gameplay is a good idea, but this has tipped the balance a bit too much. By cutting the spotting range for DBs and TBs, meaning fighters have to do the chores of spotting as well(as if they aren't already occupied for destroying enemy attack aircraft). And now we will have situations where a squadron can be shredded by Halland AA before you can even spot it, which is weird to say the least.

I completely agree with your analysis of the CV nerf. If your planes are shot down, that ship should be visible. In addition, I believe that a further nerf like Slai and BobLyn want is beyond all bounds. If you ask me, the root of their hatred of cv's is the fact that they are not good at that class. They rely on surprise and this does not work so well with a CV in play. But this is the nature of the game. Rock, paper, scissors and capture the flag. That's all it is. You can't just take away the fun of players purely for your own gain.

Skill issue much? They need to add modular decks on CVs. CVs can sh*it on anyone without any counterplay. So its a step in the right direction.

thx for nice information Video 🫡
