Earlier this year you had a roughly 20% chance of getting THREE carriers per side at Tier IV. Be happy, be very happy that it's limited now to only two CVs per side. It could be (and has fairly recently been) much worse than this. Edited December 8, 2020 by Ziggy_Sprague 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Everything after that will seem like a Candle light dinner and romantic walk along the boardwalk compared to the mauling you are receiving now.

1,656 [46856] Chain_shot Members 1,873 posts Report post #10 Posted December 8, 2020 If they are allowing 2 cv's each side in game they should allow them to div then as well. It's a logical move. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because of this neglect of and contempt for the player base, the company has been forced to insert Bots into tier 4 and 5 matches, since so many driven off by the low tier CV stupidity.

Sucks You know, I've not thought of why they started putting bots in T4 matches, but what you just said makes a lot of sense. And so does the OP as well, although it has been discussed here many times already. If WG had any sense, and it does not, they would at least give the T4s some decent AA so they could defend themselves. But that's been talked about many times as well.

Read my post you pleb... I just said I'm trying to learn the game... .my god... the morons that can type and breath at the same time... unreal Welcome to the WOWS forums. This is what you'll have to get used to. Lots of trolls and haters with nothing else to do. And then so many can't understand why there aren't enough players in low tiers to the point where they have to fill it with bots. Who the hell wants to play those tiers now? Most just FXP their way to tier 6 or 7 without playing a single low tier match Edited December 8, 2020 by STINKWEED_ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The bots were added since so few people want to play low tier anymore because of the ridiculous low aa high cv play... yet their response to this is “we don’t want to limit new players who want to try CVs” So bots for days... Even better- their “protected matchmaker” for people under tier 5 and less than 200 games is basically just expanded coop with bots that are so [edited]retarded you could hit 1 key (w) the whole battle and win 95% of your games...

5 [TF-64] AdmiralFlame76 Members 21 posts 1,202 battles Report post #19 Posted December 8, 2020 When I had Langley IV I would face battles with a total of 4 CVs(2 on each side) it was pretty fun back then but as I climbed up the tier, 2 cv on each side was becoming rare because most would quit playing cv by tierVI.

It's part and parcel. When you limit a ship type like that, it backs up the queue, and sucks up players for dumps. Adding the bots was necessary at that point, because the ratio of CV/non-CV wouldn't have been viable. Which would not be the case with a robust population.

If WG had any sense, and it does not, they would at least give the T4s some decent AA so they could defend themselves. But that's been talked about many times as well. There's far more to it than that, There's protected MM tier 4 and below, which shrinks the pool of players. There's Noob protected MM, where you have to play more than a certain number of games before you get thrown to the wolves/sealclubbers, ect.. The popularity and restrictions on number of tier 4 CV's in a match, combined with time limits in que. It's filling the que dumps with bots instead of just making undersized matches. Lack of tier 5 CV's. If you're grinding a CV line, you have to grind to tier 6 in a tier 4 ship, at tier 4 XP rates. WG cut the XP required down for this recently, but it's still a slog. With the Noob protected MM, I'm pretty certain actual new players are highly unlikely to see a CV, as the CV players need to play too many games to stay in Noob protected MM. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
