Watching Flambass drive a CV is a guilty pleasure

Support-carrier built is very nice. Also enjoying to watch you being a sort of eye in the sky for your team.

The vision aspect yes, is a problem. Promoting more team play and cv on cv interaction is what the rework has completely destroyed so in that regard this is a positive.

Encounter is one of the new Commonwealth Cruisers.

This is so funny. I love it. Whenever I play my Yorktown I always make sure to hurt the other guy

Was really good to see the defensive and spotting you did using a CV rather than damage farming. 👍

My thought was always that a CV that focuses on winning the DD vs DD war will most help win the game. If there's one thing I know I ALWAYS notice it's when your team has zero DDs vs the enemy's surviving two, 5 minutes into the game. I think if the enemy CV hadn't basically suicided this game would be lost.

Try the Béarn with full fighter build. The enemy CV is hopeless :D :D

So are you telling me that we're right back to square 1 from rts cv where the most effective and only really viable defense against cv strikes was fighter support from the other team's cv, and the battle will once again be decided by the 1v1 of carrier vs carrier? You know, the very reason they touted out for all to see when they did the rework? Interesting

The best CV for this is probably the T6 French Premium(?), the Bearn

It was nice to see how the germans in the chat where arguing but than after some times they where friendly to each other. This is what also happens often with germans.

well, the rng guy was pissed because he got focused by enemy cv and vented his frustation about it, for which you could kind of sympathize imo. also to his credit he still placed first on the team, usually the temper tantrum ragers are near the bottom of the scoreboard. the encounter player just called him out for calling the cv player a son of a wh0re. i wouldnt say they were hating on each other, it was just in the heat of the moment.

Bloody CV again!

You are a good personne

Nomnom Flambass sounds funny 😀

Finally my old job is back. Annoying CVs as much as possible. Wan to airstrike my DD? *Intercept Fighters Activated* Still want to owning my DDs? *SMOKE my team DD and make a convenient path for them, but they decided not to be grateful and leave the smoke 5 seconds later* I think there is 3 games so far where I done only 10k damage as a Essegs. But I made 40 aircrafts shot down. A massacre that I’ve never seen for a very long time. The fact that I do this so often that enemy CVs decided to report me for “inappropriate behavior”. I just do what the role said to me. Support Carrier. Annoys the crap out of enemy CVs is a part of the role of the Support Carrier. Although it took me 20 games to understand how to intercept Nachimov’s squadrons perfectly. You have to time it at the perfect time and you must have Interceptors skill to reduce fighters attack preparation time. And you have to activated when the Nachimov enter the radius it has to be perfectly time in order to reduce Nachimov squadrons. Oh and I’m not sure if it is a bug but Interceptors will persuit enemy aircrafts and ignore their petrol circle as long as they already lock on the aircrafts. I’m not complaining.

Once fighters lock onto a squadron they may pursue them outside of the patrol circle. But pursue for too long and eventually they give up

that fighter engagement time is fast as F. how could you do that?

👍👍

Wait; waht? Flambass playing subs next!!

Enjoy it while you can, they're not going to allow this for long.

It doesn't work against a good CV player - its just a consumable that can be avoided, or you can just despawn your planes if it catches you. Unless they make manually controlled fighters like back in RTS, these "support carriers" will stay a redundant gimmick - smoke and minelaying is all just to stall the game, and self-extend the CV's DPS.

I think Satsuma was rounding the island to find you Flambass. I don't think it ever detected you to the west so it went to where most CVs would hide.

The most powerful CV in WW2 used as a support CV to counter what were in life mediocre CV's, or in the case of the Soviet/German/Italian non-existent WoWS fanboy boats.

11:11 bombs formed pentagram :)

how come you always instantly shift back to your ship after your first strike? or is that an essex specific thing where your squadrons only get 1 strike?

@le_potate3861

Essex rockets and bombers are tactical squadrons, just like the super cv's. They act like an unlimited consumable.

Good luck trying this against a CV player with +1 braincell - some dude already showed a video where a Nakhimov completely dumpstered an Essex in no time, because it has 0 armor to protect it from HE strikes. But it doesn't even need to be a Nakhimov - even that Midway could probably force you on the defense, if he gets pissed off cuz of your fighters and decides to focus on you instead. All the Essex can do in return then, is smoke himself all game :D

If enemy CV is trying to get you killed, that means he isn't killing your team, and if you can stay alive long enough that means you did your job as escort CV imo. Ofc some spotting and damage would be nice but my main focus was kinda not letting enemy CV bully my team

@meganoobbg3387

Not saying you're not capable of doing it. Just saying the Essex's surface vessel is so squishy, it leaves you completely at the mercy of the enemy CV's skill - especially if its a Nakhimov, or some premium CV's that can take you out in 2-3 attack runs, not even 5 minutes into the game. Hopefully the Taihou will have better armor, but i suspect its fighter consumable's will be weaker, cuz of the mine gimmick it will have.

You can hate me on this, but i still don't understand why try to use your fighters to protect your team anyway. I wish they could be used like that, but it only works againt the "special" enemy cvs, like this one in the video. Otherwise you can complety get out of it's way and ignore it, it takes too much time to activate. It's much better to use them to spot imo. And don't get me started on how easily a Nakimov can ignore fighters and just strike your team anyway. One can say that cvs going for damage is not support, but i beg to differ. i dead bb can't shoot your team's cruisers. A spotted, then dead dd can't cap, can't do his objective. If as a support cv, forced to go back with your own squadron to your team's side, just to put a fighter over one of your teammates, which said fighter can be ignored by the cv, and it's not being used to spot, feels hardly game changing. I really miss old rts cv-s. At least there, your could really use your fighters to go protect your own teammates, while your other strike planes were free to work. It didn't hinder your potetnial. This system do. Then again, we are back at the same argument, that cv-s don't fit in this game. They are just too toxic. AA doesn't do anything, they have infinite planes, they can drop you, at least once. I guess everyone is free to play as they please. If you think that protecting your team with fighters will be tactically better and get closer to a win, do that. As this video shows it sometimes do work.... ( i don't know why i wrote this, it feel goos to rent a little )

The only CV play I condone: anti-cv play.

actually getting plane kills with fighters! what dark magic is this? is this some wacky FUBAR build?

Give us more duration flambass😢

Ohh mate! Im so sorry to hear of the bad news! Stay strong and you will come out of this! Many people beat cancer and you will too! Here supporting you!

I always laugh at how others spit on their fellow players in game chat as if they were the best player in the world. Reported.....reported..... It is and remains a game.

I want my Essex😭😭😭

A more interesting carrier game with someone who knows how to use the defensive gimmicks.
