I've had it with Hot Spot.

 

I mean who in their right mind thought that was a good idea?

 

Spawn in a CV? Might as well torp myself ASAP. I'm going to get shwacked in 3 minutes anyway.

 

The frames? Idk why, and idk if it is just me, but why do I get 35+ frames on all other maps (exclude stuttering from broken game), but the moment I get on HS I get 2-10....and sometimes the lonely 1 FPS.

 

----------------

 

All of that wouldn't even be an issue if I didn't get the map four GD times in a row. I hate islands of ice, but give it to me. Give me something other than this garbage.

 

Yes, yes, yes. Beta this, beta that, blah blah blah blah. It doesn't take a whole lot to tweak the spawns on the map. Even that would make it acceptable. My guess is the rotation is so high for that POS is because they want feedback. Well, I'm probably the 70th person to finally snap about it. There. There is your feedback.

 

/rant.

 

 

Ahhhhhh. I feel much better now.

 

*waits for trolls to b!tch about "crying". Don't worry. I'll wait.

FPS 35+ ? :ohmy: I get 15-25 FPS on a good day in WoWS, 20-40 FPS is WoT on a good day.  Don't whine.

So because I get decent frames on other maps, I have no reason to bring up the agitation of getting single digit frames on this one? Please explain that logic to me.

Maybe lowering your graphic settings will help. I run this map at 60+ FSP with everything maxed out but I am running a true gaming rig so. I also agree with hotspot, it comes around far too often.

I just drive that cv into capping...it's my RAWR protest at Hotspot 

 

Might start doing that. At least that way the enemy will shoot at me and give my team some time to get in a few good shots.

That will surely screw with their heatmaps. "Look, on Hot Spot the carriers drive to the middle and engage the enemy. That's how we encourage them to not stay in the corners. We'll make more maps like that!"

Right first off let me say this, being a carrier player and thats practically all I play now, there is loads of ways to stay alive in hot spot, there is no way you can tell what map is gonna be next so you wont know what load out you need, fighters bombers or torpedo bombers you cant tell, you take what you feel is best depending on what carrier you have, I have 3 bombers and 2 torpedo bombers very rarely i use fighters thats my choice, but you can survive more than 3 minutes in hot spot, play defensive or be an aggressive attacker, use one of your bombers as a scout and throw them of course, take a different route, stay with the pack, or if your feeling brave charge at full speed, i allways send a bomber out as a scout and if i get attacked i dont run home i send it as far away from the  map as possible, normally they would send 2 fighters after it, that then gives you the edge because they are then concentrating on the bomber to see where he is going giving you the chance with the rest of your pack to do one sorte on them and get back in time for another load out.

Good luck try different methods but you should last more than a few minutes on hot spot.

 

 

PS: your still new to aircraft carriers 208 battles you have played.. against my 601

I still kinda think it would be better for the spawns to be the same but a team spawns east and west or north and south...and it could vary....and still be kinda split, but playing a carrier on Hotspot is kinda ridiculous....but keeping a team starting on one side of the map.....

I'm not saying it is impossible to survive, but that god damnit, when I am chilling in a T8 CV, and I'm fighting TX, there is no direction I can run (or scout) that doesn't involve me getting slammed by fire before my planes even get there.

 

Like the match that pissed me off today, I sent a DB SE (I was SW), a TB mid, and my fighters directly north. Before my DB even got to the islands in the middle between SW and SE I was taking cruiser fire. My team was headed north, so I tried to stick with them. What happened? I ran into a wall of BB's. I then tried to make headway through the cut in the mountain/islands and got picked off before I could get there.

 

It's broken. 208 battles is plenty to understand that a map is broken. There are tons of people griping about this map every single day. I know it sounds like I'm attacking you, but understand that I am not. I am merely agitated with the fact that no matter what direction you go, in a cv at a high tier, you are boned. Everyone can see everyone. It's like that sh!tty map on WoT that was TX before they made is TI & II where everyone saw each other within 30 seconds of match start.

 

WG needs to own up to this screw up and make changes.

The map is wretchedly unfair for carriers, but, in my experience, is actually the best arena for determining the superior team. 9 times out of 10, the group that spawns into Hot Spot and immediately announces a plan (WE ARE GOING HERE! *clicks map*) wins.

 

I only wish that they had made it larger so carriers actually had a fighting chance to get out of combat. Having said that, I've had matches on that map where CVs absolutely dominated the fighting, so take that as you will.
