  • Why ECV are NOT good for CV play or Navyfield

    02. 23. 2012 15:54


Kilaenots
So the issue, other than total lack of players, is a lack of cv drivers. The answer is the ECV......I think not.
This is going to push more people away from cv lines, why bother levelling a cv BO when your BB one can
drive an ECV at 70 ish and PCV at 100. Ok so you're never going to have a CV6 but the PCV are not that
far of and you will have a BB bo to boot (or why not just another ss BO). You can even buy your CV crew
on prem trade so absolutely no need ever to level a cv line ever.

Yes you'll see a few days of people getting there ECVs so rooms will be full of them but the chances are
they wont have a clue how to use a cv, probably only have 1 pilot on board and piss everyone else off
and make them leave the game as they are sick of being blind/unsupported by the cvs sitting at the
spawn point.

This isn't meant to be a rant, it is a serious. SDE who provided a lovely statement of plans for 2012
with lots of promises, one glaringly obvious omission was ECVs, not mentioned at all in there plans,
although there isn't time for HA mode and windows 7 patch. Stop wasting time on additions that are
going to make the game worse and fix the issues.

alot of problems would be solved if SDE would just turn around and disable the ability to put supports in T-Slots where they dont belong, thus "forcing" players to learn to AA to protect themselves


Do you know what is a sub? And how to counter them?
I've run AA on all my BBs until Monty, but not anymore, because of those SS4/5 that can do more damage than a BB6 or 1/2 wave of bombers

Back to topic: ECVs ... lol

Or stop whining about people whining?

SDE will not let those big, nasty, egotistical BB players be able to "learn to not rely on others".

I think this answer is actually fair enough.

SS 4/5 do damage more than BB6 or 1/2 of bombers ??

what server do you play on ??? MARS ??

i have KM SS4 and SN CV4
and i know how much damage both do

my advise to you start an SS BO and try to reach SS5
to see how long does it take (2wice or 3 times more than a BB6)
SS get bad exp (shared) even though some SS players do more attack
than most BB players most really sucks
so don't complain about SS in ECV thread


back to ECV

guess you are some how right
but
you can make ECV like SD ships
full crew of level 70 ish or you can't use it


OR even change the EVENT to 1 win in a CV class ship each day

But I'm with FallenStaR too, my noob BB in me says NO but the longtime CV playing in me says YES

The SS driver in me says O_o

The CV driver in me says HELL YES!!!! Then adds, take an escort for AA, take scouts to see, I'm here to torpedo things not guide the self blinded.

And you proved my point saying that some do more damage in a SS than most of the BBs.

But sure, I whine, I play on MARS, I'm not experienced enough so I haven't the right to talk.
And since I'm quite off topic, this will be my last post on this argument.

Although I generally agree with the original post, SDE should be sorting out the lag problems/crashes/windows 7 patch/ HA and all the other problems that need fixing..

I think it can be a good thing as pure BB players that get the ECV will see life from the other side, from the CV players point of view and may stop them complaining so much.

But also the ECV's provides a mid lvl CV which can be use any sailor as BO meaning if you have a higher lvl CV BO, the rest of the crew can catch up without having to lvl a new BO.
