  • CV Shortage

Well, it's been an ongoing problem with NF. Most rooms fill to 20 BB's and everyone MUST
wait (with the invention of GBII) long periods of time for the room to start. This is a serious
turnoff to new players and any MMO needs player base growth to keep the game alive.

So the question is:

Why do you think the servers have low CV activity?


My observations,

-Monotonous fighter biased gameplay. BB's go blind and become aggravated at you.
-Shared XP resulting in weak rewards for being successful.
-AA ships. Cause and affect. AAW'ing is the only practical form of getting experts. With ships
like the Mandel, it's getting a little ridiculous. Moltke's and Pensacola's are bad enough.
-Low fuel on planes. I've noticed this hurts TB usage as it's difficult to regroup them after
the "low fuel" mark is hit.
-Lack of CV content. Especially when you compare it to BB content.
-Small diversity between cv nations.
-Shared CV6's between IJN/KM and US/UK
-No real advantage of owning a CV6 over a PCV. PCV in some ways is better since you can
use a support on the BO slot.

Discuss.

I have little trouble with us using my KM. Usually its because of a huge level difference.
I just look at it as a challenge.

I'm playing AA since the merge to get experts on my pilots so i can burn them for vets...
because i hated seeing my IJN fighters get curb stomped by everything.
So yeah... 170 140 130 120 120 vets and counting. Burned cubic asstons of vets and i'm not
touching my CV till i have at least 170 vets on every pilot.

oh and don't even get me started on the USN CV FPS topic. They made me stop using my CV5
in the first place.

"My previous post was more about the t1 fighter vs t4 fighters ect. And yes sure you can
spend your time micro managing fighters to take out higher rank fighters. But accept it,
Not every cv is as good as some. And for the mass they do not want to micro manage."

So you want the game to be made so that its easier and the skilless can compete with the
skilled?

I totaly agree!
That would get more cv players ingame.
BB players might whine for a bit untill they see the end of their boat and
discover "Hey I dont have to wait 10mins for a game to start!"
And just maybe some people will start comming back instead of leaving ;-)

i agree with this :

Im an avid CV player and I think most of the suggestions in this thread are retarded.

Buff bombers? Are you kidding me? Just because you guys suck with bombers dosnt mean they
should be buffed. What happens when someone good gets ahold of them? CVs already have more
potential damage then a BB with the bomber load time buff.

Buff CV6? How about nerfing PCV? I do however agree there needs to be CV6 only planes but
they shouldnt be monsters. Just give them more fuel and sight range.

More exp? For sure not more shared exp.

"-AA ships. Cause and affect. AAW'ing is the only practical form of getting experts. With
ships like the Mandel, it's getting a little ridiculous. Moltke's and Pensacola's are bad
enough."

I agree that making the only effective way to earn experts AA has put a burden on CV
players. When experts were taken away from missions I sent several support tickets about
this very issue and they were ignored. Sure they got rid of vet death on pilots but that
just makes for worse CV play because there is no real penalty for getting your planes shot
down. Missions need to be brought back now that we have hackshield.

"-Shared CV6's between IJN/KM and US/UK"

YES! I've been on this since CV6s were released. Ignoring the fact that the Axis CV6 is by
a nation that didnt even have CVs, I never saw the issue of making 2 more. I mean hell the
original CV6s all have the same stats more or less anyway.

"-No real advantage of owning a CV6 over a PCV. PCV in some ways is better since you can
use a support on the BO slot."

In a meeting with ONF and AZ fleet leaders we were told that PCV would be a cv 5.5 with 10
launch and an extra support slot/more plane space. We were also told that a CV BO would be
required to operate it. WTF ever happened to this?

I find it hilarious that my predictions more or less all came true in regards to CV play.

Now, one thing that hasnt really been mentioned in this thread.... PLAY MORE GB1 NOOBS.
You dont need CVs, games start faster even with 2-4 cvs, and games finish faster making
for more exp per hour.



and than i stopped reading ...i have a list of things that irretate me when i play cv ,
but i might as well not post it because it will not be read by any sde personel and will
never be put in to the game.

i like to add to the post i quoted : that i don't understand how people come up with
these idea's and do they even play cv?

PS; bless my spelling i expected a new forum in feb where i can right click the red line
and click the correct word .

My previous post was more about the t1 fighter vs t4 fighters ect. And yes sure you can
spend your time micro managing fighters to take out higher rank fighters. But accept it,
Not every cv is as good as some. And for the mass they do not want to micro manage.

I would of been far happier as a cv locating them to a hot spot then leaving em to fight
well i sneak my tb passed the engaged fighters.

I still say the obvious and simplest answer is to do away with all the different fighters
and replace them with 1 fighter for each nation. Then as it levels up it gets longer
flight time. And as you go up in cv class you can field more of them.

And i still say CV are far more unbalanced than bb when it comes to low level vs high level.
Sure a cv3 with t3 can take some t4. But not like a bb1 or two can sink bb6 and do fairly
often. CV1 t1 stand no chance against t3 or t4.

Put it another way. i have no intent on playing CV atm. With the above idea. i would be
happy to play cv more.
