Hi All,

While im feeling all proactive.

Calmly and rationally - What keeps you out of your CV?

How do we get you back in your CV playing again?

Again - Please keep this clear of speculation, insults. Everyone has their right to a
viewpoint or reason, debate it but do so with reason and back it up.

If not or you cant, then leave it

Yes no doubt this has been discussed to death, but is also a major issue in NF today
resulting in games taking too long to load etc. Yes I also know there is the CV wish list
thread.

This is a temporary quick fire solution suggestion thread - Keep it short and concise

Heres a couple for you

1) Crew death
2) Player abuse (bullying and insults)
3) TB's DB's shortened range
4) Locals need resolving (?)

Added (by community)
1) Torp/DB Damage review

@snailgod

yeah sure, so you can go and 1 hit a BB6?? hell no, you can eaven 1 hit a BB5 if you
roll enuf DB's...so DMG wise DB's are FINE, boost them and lose balance.

all so lvl 60 cap for LFP doesn't helop Cv2...ther lvl 57-68....caping LFP at 70 wouled
be a beter choice.

all so no matter what happens with CV patch...ther are simple TO MENY noobs and
idiots runing oround in Cv's this days...nothing is gona make it beter.

cheers

Make a new game mode like a reverse gb.
where the cvs dominate the map with 10-14 cvs and the bbs are limited to 6-8, and are
only supporting the cvs.

if we can have a bigger map where the two teams are really far apart then the cvs will
be more important since bbs won't be in range for a while.

if maps can't be made bigger then reduce the scale of the map to increase the practical
playing field size.

or make the map with obstacles like ice and islands so a bb will be impeded from
reaching the other side.

the bbs will be reduced to a support ship in this map, defending the cvs from any bb
that tries to rush, and aaing any bombers and fters.

this almost sounds like a cv mode room, but without the rush to the middle, and
spamming of fighters. The only thing stopping the cvs from rushing to the middle with
these games would be a bb (nonexistent in cv mode), or physical impasses. (and also
the occasional pcv with heavy guns like the 11" singles.

The abuse is annoying and the sheer unfairness of dealing with fters better than your
own is hard. Too much of fter ability depends on their levels and number of vets.
A bb3 can still take on a bb5 if they can control their ship well at level, but a cv3 has no
chance to take on a cv 5 at level. Most likely their fighters will be blown out of the sky
with level 100 fighters against lvl 70 fters. there should be some more manual skill
behind flying fighters rather than, click, drag, click, turn, rinse and repeat.

Well, after having a coupla AA ships follow me around when I was flag yesterday and
try and shoot down ANY plane that came near me (friendly or otherwise it seems), I'm
not using fighters for a looooong time, especially as I can win games without them.

When I'm flag, I don't NEED AA-ship help against opposition fighters, be they CV1 or
CV6 level. I need help against BOMBERS that have either come from a hemisphere I'm
not watching or the border. Attempting to flak enemy fighters that I'm fighting at a non-
default height on my way to scout (and gunning down some from both sides) isn't
helpfull neither is NOT gunning down DB's that ARE flying at a default height.

Course when I pointed this out I was mocked (mostly by a member of a certain fleet
that's attacking London today but thats irrellevant). I don't care really, I can and will
level Cv's (including fighters) without implementing fighters. The 'average' CV on
Iowa/Az doesn't know how to use fighters well enough to stop me from bombing them
to death...

"1. Limit CV crew death
2. Increase bomb/torp damage-at the moment bomb damage is almost nothing, and to get to the
target I have to pass enemy ftrs, aa, than bomb the target with his aaw and turninh-all of
course still
with uber aa
3. Fix the f.uckin circle of death
4. Kill locals! "

1. Agreed.
2. Agreed. (@megadone DB damage is NOT fine right now. Considering what they have to go
through and the time it takes to get a good hit on the enemy, they should do more damage
in a flight of 10 than a BB2/3 does in 1 salvo -_-.)
3. Meh, I'd be ok if they didn't; it would be a nice fix though.
4. No. Cap them at 50-60 so that the CV1s and CV2s can use them but high level CVs can't
abuse them.

1 - agreed
2 - DB dmg is just fine, learn to use them -.-
3 - how about try and move your FP's insted of sending them out and leaving them
to them self?
4 - how about not? lvl caping them is 5x beter solution -.-

(1) In GB II.. The biggest CV or random BB should be flag.
80% of the time its a CV1-2 when there's a PCV in the side.

(2) Scrap locals, or limit them to CV1's only which is what they were
supposively introduced for.

(3) Fix MN fighter fuel load.

(4) Unless a CV is AFK please don't yell at them.
You'd struggle to sink a Lion II in a Frigate, the lower level
CV's fight against big odds too.

Trust me they don't want a BLIND team scenario either and
are doing all they can to fix it.

The only thing that has made me can my CV line is whinning. I thought i could put up
with it, so i started a CV. I was not able to, so i went all fighters, i still got just as much
whinning when I scouted and provided FC as when I used all bombers.

CV crew death is nothing to me, as soon as people stop whinning about CVs i will play
CV. This is why there are no CV players, all the good and decent CV players are tired of
whinning and have quit, and now, for the most part, are left with sub-par CV players, so
we whine more hoping that will solve the problem driving away even more good CV
players.

Give CV players a reason to play, if you can't fix CV whinning, make bombers OP or
something so that players will WANT to play them. right now CV is the most boring and
unforgiving thing to play in NF, thanks to the players of NF. For once, it is not all $DE's
fault.
