  • Why many CVs refuse to Scout.

1. This is the biggest reason for me, and a very common reason for other CVs I have spoken to. "PURE SPITE" .  yes that's right.  Because even when I did do it, there's always 1 or 2 BBs calling us "Noobs" and much less savory things because  there's still no vision or air-cover because my low level non wallet warriored fighters are burning wreckage for my efforts.

So out of "SPITE",  I refuse to scout at all when my own team starts hurling insults.  I really don't care if we loose and I die at this point.  Just as long as all the abnoctious kids go down with me. And its not just that game either.  I carry a grudge and continue to do it for several games, even all night because of little unsupervised children who cant keep there mouths shut.

At this point your best bet is to use your own scouts and push forward to visual range, because I really don't care if we all get slaughtered.  I'm just going to keep border humping and pushing bombers.


But amazingly, It only takes ONE polite request to get me to change my mind.  When I hear requests for CV support that DONT include the word "Noob"  or other profanity,  I start pushing fighters and attempting to cover the blind spots. Even tho I'm likely throwing planes against level 120 wallet warriors flying Boosted max vetted elite Wonder fighters, or  Heavy cruisers armed with  nothing but massively overpowered AA weapons that vaporize my guys in seconds.  a severe game imbalance IMO.


So next time, Certain people should try not acting like over indulged twelve year olds,  and perhaps you will see more fighter cover or scouting.

I don't expect Cvs to scout, but I expect you to keep fighters off of our BB lines, I'm fed up with seeing clouds of Fighters above me. And our Cv lanching waves and waves of Bombers into the clouds. Clear the space so we can scout. I can do it. Why can't you?

because when we do that people keep spaming us CV VISION PLOX and insulting us and never give any thanks I mean I shoot down 12 DBs and 10 seconds later the BB I just saved calls me a sucky CV for not giving vision

Well thats the Bbs fault, I'm just saying that BBs should be able to scout fine if the BB lines are cleared.

BBs dont have to do anything really for most of the game they just float around QQing about vision until one side decides to attack and then everyone shoots each other

It sounds more like common CV players leaving fighters at default and then complaining how AA in overall are overpowered.



Give me 3.46" or 5" 40 aa and it dosnt matter what altitude your planes are at.

If I have a good group of BBs I will sacrifice my fts to help them see but this means.

BBs have to:

Stop shooting the little DDs and FFs that are suicidal. (as the enemy BBs tear you up)
Try AND hit enemy BBs
STOP playing as an AA and shooting down my fts before they even leave the front line (this goes for all AA friendly’s)
Stop WHINNING you cant see because all the red dots are blocking your vision of the battle.

AA ships friendly ships:

STOP SHOOTING DOWN MY FTS!!!! I really am happy you got that little scout after 200 shells...... but shooting down my fts that chase it down doesnt help the team.

Solution to being blind for more than 20 seconds.

A.) Rush out, get sunk, Go to the next room in 2 minutes.
B.) Run, wait 10 minutes to lose, waste another 10 minutes to get in another battle.
C.) Call the CV a noob and get yourself one shot.


So, just quitting the room and let other realize they won't win by flying bombers into waves of fighters.


If I can scout south with T2 fighters against a CV6 and PCV, you can scout too.
If I can kill lvl 90+ T3s with Undervetted lvl 60 T2s, You can kill planes too.
If I can get bombers around the enemy without border humping, So can you.
If I can scout by myself, so can you.
If I can bomber whore and keep south light up at the same time, so can you.
If I can sink ships when blind occasionally, so can you.
If I can sink the enemy CV fighter camping me and my team with bombers to win the sky, so can you.
If I can get T3 scouts off while being fighter camped with T4 Fighters, So can you.

Reminder to CVs, all your EXP is shared..... Aka Win = Exp. Hint Hint.

Reminder to BBs, 90% your EXP is EARNED, aka Attack = EXP, waiting on a CV to scout for you is wasting time you could get attack.

Solution to everyone, play smart and don't rely on others to lose the game for you. Win it yourself.

As a CV player, I can sympathize with your anger and response. But it is still the wrong thing to do.

Scouting is part of the job of CV. That does not mean you have to carry scouts, but you should provide visual cover over the enemy when practical. There are many times that my team's BBs simply can't launch their scouts due to heavy fighter cover overhead. It's my job to clear the skies and let the BBs send their scouts. Sometimes their scouts get slaughtered upon approach to the enemy line due to heavy AA. Some scouts are too weak to run a lower altitutude and fall prey to AA.

It is necessary, at times, to send your fighters in as scouts. There are just those battles where scouts stand no chance and only fighters can hold sight cover long enough for my BBs to hit their targets.

Play the game right. Do the right thing.

I've been blamed for being a noob CV, all the while I've been throwing T4s all over the map providing cover. It's not me that's playing poory, it's just some dude who's frustrated with his inability to see who is shelling him.

I have a UK Nelson BB. Zero scout fittings. I am wholly dependent upon other's scouting. That's the way it is sometimes.
