  • Cap to the Maximum amount of planes loaded per pilot

What would everyones thoughts be on a cap of 6 maximum planes loaded on each
pilot?

I personally think it would improve CV gameplay, encourage levelling more pilots (not
just 4) and generally improve air coverage.

The amount of players spamming 9 fighters or bombers on one pilot in a CV4 +, with
their team dead by the time they are launched is frustrating.

Thoughts?

The more fighter groups you can independently control at once the more effective you will
be. Most local users do not even control their planes hence why large groups work better.

In that case, you should use 2 pilots with 4 or 5 planes on each. You can select both pilots
and control them at the same time.

Strange suggestion.Only time I use +6 planes on 1 pilot is when enemy have +6 planes
going over me and I will need to juice even 1 more ability to clear my sky(all planes on
my best pilot and this work only with locals).It's noob tactic but work.

Just because you have an opinion, doesn't mean that it is correct. In this case, it isn't the
whole world.

Loading more than 6 planes on one pilot is a detriment to your team. End of.

I see it on every class.

There is NO need to do it.

You don't know what you are talking about Snow_ball.

To respond to your question ljsevern.. (sry i only check fourms every now and again)

It is only a rare launch for me. Here is when i would do it:

(For my US cv, I run 2 dbs and 2 tbs with 4 fp. On my essex, i can only run 4 fighters,
2 bombers, and 1 tb on the support slots)

1st situation:
All my fighters are shot down (rare), and all i have left is bombers. I run the 2
bombers pilots in 1 wave, and since I can only run 1 Tb on the CV4, I then ready the
full TB group while the bombers go out.

2nd situation: (the vary rare one)
My team's Cvs are fighter camping the hell out of the other team and i can just
bomb. So i ready the 2 bombers send them out and if my TB's have to go more than
half way across the map, I would ready the TBs all on 1 pilot (so i can catch up to
the enemy). Otherwise i would ready fighters aswell. But still... it is rare for me to
ready them all on 1 pilot like this... as I said before (other post) I usually can't run
bombers due to my team's other cvs not working well.


So basically... I would only launch them on 1 pilot if my fighters where dead, or if my
TB's have to go over half way across the map... (this gives me time to catch up
before launching =p)


But that situation is only relevant to a few CV Classes... Anything over a CV4 should
not be in that situation, therefore, they should not ready a full load of planes on 1
pilot. (I believe you can run a CV3 or a CV1 without running into that situation
either... but i'm not sure, and it probably varies on what nation you are in.)
Also it depends on how the player run's their set up... Some may not have this
problem... I for one... usually dont. Im just giving a possible reason for why someone
would launch all planes on 1 pilot on a CV4 or below.


This is why I only support putting the cap on anything over a CV4. (CV5, PCV, CV6)
Plus... I'm not sure SDE would put the cap on the lower classes due to the support
slots, and running into that situation of having to launch all on 1 pilot... ya know?


***I do have a question for you/ everyone though.... What CLASSES of CVs are you
mainly seeing this launching of all planes on 1 pilot on? Mainly Higher or Lower
classes?

Because I'm thinking the class of the CV does matter in this case... mainly due to the
support slots on the CV. Also... not all players like to run their cvs the way that has
been suggested. (the choice on how to run your ship/ CV comes into play here)

dw maistral, it was never going to work anyway on anyone who was paying attention....

I just put in support tickets with screenies if I see someone loading 9 on a pilot, under
leeching...
But that said, this should force people to at least reconsider doing stupid things,
ignoring entirely the question of how the player got to CV5 loading all their bombers on
one pilot.
