I sank both of them Title need to be edited: "Mike OP, Proof of concept" Jokes aside nice game and well played. Shows how good Indy can be in the hand of a great player, though I still miss Saipan Edited July 8, 2015 by Cpt_VictorHenry_USN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
492 MikeLapTrap Beta Testers 3,012 posts 1,480 battles Report post #4 Posted July 8, 2015 They both tried to snipe me at start. lost half my health. with 1 TB squad i 1 shot the Hiryu. then the second wave 1 shot the ryujo. no need for anvil or anything else Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
486 codextero Beta Testers 1,102 posts 403 battles Report post #5 Posted July 8, 2015 (edited) more likely the 2 IJN CV's are mediocre The proof for the opposite is in your very own profile, your DPS and winrate in the Ryujo is almost twice that of the Independence. Not as drastic but far more damage in Zuiho than Bogue And same story with Hosho and Langley USN CV's are trash until Essex. Edit: just checked, both those 2 IJN pilots have 60k DPG in the ships they were playing for that match. Edited July 8, 2015 by Awesomecopter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

270 [BS] Pyrofiend Alpha Tester 586 posts 1,053 battles Report post #18 Posted July 8, 2015 This proves nothing... and almost everyone knows that. I know Mike is good, but come on man. Can it be more obvious that the whole point of this topic is just to draw attention to himself? Mike's stats prove which line is better, and I'd give money that if he answered honestly, he would say IJN is way better. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

50 Deidryt Beta Testers 368 posts 234 battles Report post #20 Posted July 8, 2015 So looks like ideal load out for Indy is 1/1/1 Definitely. Fighters are useless for EXP if the other side doesn't have a CV, and USN Striker loadouts only have 1 TB, which can be countered by a single enemy fighter squad (if they know what they're doing). DBs only deal 2-3k damage + fire max to anything not a CV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Definitely something that needs a lot of experience before its viable on its own (as a CV's only method of attack). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your team very well could have actually gave your some AA cover and left a pensacola or something nearby. If that was me in the T7 IJN along with another competent CV driver and you were by yourself i guarantee you would have been sunk in the first 3 minutes.

Read the scoreboard, Mike shot down 37 planes(36 are bombers), rest of his team shot down only 12. Edited July 8, 2015 by Cpt_VictorHenry_USN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
