2,288 CriMiNaL__ Beta Testers 3,750 posts 14,473 battles Report post #1 Posted February 28, 2020 (edited) Well [edited] I decided to play some ranked, and in a CV no less, and boy is it dumb. Sure some teams are pathetic and will hide behind me, (yes 3 ships hiding behind the cv in one game) But the CV in ranked is so over powered, ships spread out, no more over lapping AA bubble, a DD goes wide, yum yum yum goes the rocket planes. And so many torp hits, over and over and over, did I mention over and over again, then its bombing time, more rockets, and then back to torps. Having the CV in ranked is the [edited] thing I have seen, but hey seeing as I can use it I will, as I am all safe and snuggly in my special spot. WG please do the player base a favour and never repeat this rubbish again. Edited February 28, 2020 by CriMiNaL__ 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Guest 0 posts Report post #3 Posted February 28, 2020 I like playing CVs in ranked, because : isolated ships are easy victims for air attacks. Enemy team can be perma spotted with the drop of fighter squadron consumeables. I can torp and torp and torp and torp and... and nothing can stop me. Glue together to form an AA umbrella? Even better, I will drop torps on the edge of your AA umbrella and let my torps roll into your tightly packed blob of victimships. Did I mention bombs and rockets? Maybe I forgot, yup they too are endless fun, I can rocket and rocket and rocket and rocket, and you can't stop me/// So please WG, consider this a pat on the back. Well done for letting CVs into ranked tier 10, I am having lots of fun. Hell, the 4% of players who play CVs are allowed to have some fun, right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apparently there have been a lot of AFKs this season of Ranked... Gasp. Shock. Lots of folks must need new hardware, or a better ISP... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IIRC, the only season(s) that they haven't been in ranked is post rework when an odd-numbered tier was selected for Ranked, since as you well know, CVs are only on the even numbered tiers.

3,762 Pura__Vida Members 6,900 posts 21,408 battles Report post #12 Posted February 28, 2020 Just earned a second place loser and the CV saved his star again because he got to live 7 minutes longer than anyone else on the team, and kept resetting center cap as he had a smorgasbord of targets to farm. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But after 1 or 2 games I could see how dumb having a cv is in ranked. Hence this thread. It does not belong in 7 v 7 ranked at all, but on the flip side I will use one cause WG allows it Edited February 28, 2020 by CriMiNaL__ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
