No way this is ever gonna be called a fair matchup. I'm not sure how it happened... maybe the carrier div'd with a T6 or higher ship? It blew chunks - we got decimated. The Bogue ran off to a corner and hid - and was the only one to survive the steamroll. How's carrier MM supposed to work? tiafyc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm still trying to figure out how to be constructive in a 4 CV game where I'm in a Tier 5 and there's a Tier 6 CV on each side.

Before troll divisions were removed, we had a Tier 8 game with two Langleys in it because the red Langley divisioned with a NC and dragged our poor solo Langley into the match due to mirroring. If you have a screenshot of the team list, or a replay, I'd send it into support. A 2 CV game with mismatched carriers is supposed to be impossible. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been in the Bogue and saw myself face T6 CV's as long as there was another CV on my team. Granted, the last time our Indy was AFK so I had to be creative with my planes to contribute.

3,999 [V_KNG] Herr_Reitz Beta Testers 13,205 posts Report post #9 Posted June 24, 2017 This is why I always ask you guys - indeed, it was a 6/5 two carrier match. Here's a screenshot: I just started playing carriers myself - and I don't really recall being in a 6/5 match yet. Maybe I have been but didn't see it? But man, these T5 carriers with an inability to strafe, fewer loadouts... WoWS/WG may want to consider stopping this type of MM for carriers. tiafyc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1,596 SyndicatedINC Members 2,263 posts 13,901 battles Report post #10 Posted June 26, 2017 Indeed, either this MM needs to go or the manual attack restriction needs to be lifted when paired with a T6 CV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
3,999 [V_KNG] Herr_Reitz Beta Testers 13,205 posts Report post #11 Posted June 27, 2017 I think the latter would help - but then it's the shear volume of aircraft load outs too... but man, not having manual control when up-tiered hugs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
