Hey guys, so the time is upon us. Soviet CVs have now been announced and we have our first taste of that. However, tbh, unless they get a super heal or super tight aiming reticle. I do not think these CVs will have a huge impact on gameplay. Enjoy, and let me know what you guys think!

They did it, they managed to do it
They did it! They did the thing!
That maniacs, they did it.
It took them long enough! Man, these CV’s must have been burning holes in the servers just sitting there all this time
Darn it all to heck!
Well cant wait for homing torpedoes being CV dropped now
@J.A Belmes well I mean, the Weser and GZ have history behind their development beyond just blueprints
Don’t forget homing rockets and guided bombs.
For balans reasons the geht nukes and invincible planes
@J.A Belmes Russia never had carriers at the time….Germany had the half finished Graff Zepplin. Check mate.
@Jay Werner How about the other 5 German CVs? Also you are talking about the USSR, not Russia, who would later have 8 aircraft carriers anyway. How many CVs did Nazi Germany construct after WW2?
Oh boy! Just what nobody asked for!
Wait until we see Austro-Hungarian hybrids
Agreed, I’d rather have French CVs, especially Bearn.
Think of it this way, they will be taking up a slot that could go to other more annoying CVs.
I guess on the bright side, we’re more likely to see other lines for other nations now that the Soviet tech tree would be now full for the most part.
France: actually had a carrier (albeit a really bad one), had some finalized designs ready for production
WG: haha communist plane go brrrt
@Ibnu Even Canada managed to have at least one CV that really did existed and was put into service in the Canadian Navy at some points, the Bonaventure, but this one was built in Ireland by the British Navy, later to be modified and put into service, but she was retired in 1970s, wouldn’t it be funny to see a new tech tree line for Canada, we still do have the Haida after all…
Imagine what it would look like with the Haida, the Iroquois and even those old Halifax class, not to forget the Montcalm ( though the latter was an old tanker/freighter converted into a CV ) and the Bonaventure…
@Ibnu you wouldnt want to play Japanese CL unless having 6 to mostly 4 155mm guns or smaller on hulls that were usually outmassed by French DDs sounds fun. Honestly the best thing for most of them would be similar to the line of german light cruisers they made as DDs recently or the Light Cruiser Paolo Emilio they decided was a destroyer and can travel 10 knots faster then it can.
@Doctor Mabuse Canada almost had BBs too.
@Joshua not if WG and their fairy and dwarf workshop suddenly pull out a “this is a recently discovered secret blue print of IJN CL with 16 155mm guns that shoots every 4 seconds” card
@Ibnu Honestly not that far off from what the Mogami is like now tbh
Every good thing must come to an end. it’s been fun guys
It’s just another CV line, nothing new… there will be a full Italian and French CV line and an additional US & Japanese CV line for odd tiers as well, eventually
Sky cancer just got diversified. Nothing to be alarmed about. There will still be the same shit, just different flags
This is now just entering stupid land. This and the Subs, I think players actually will start to leave the game in significant numbers.
*so long and thanks for all the fish playing in the background*
my thoughts exactly
Tone is also a historical ship
when balans nation get into balans class
Do you mean balklans cause never heard of balans?
WG: REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
They just went full R….never go full R
Do they come with a fleet of tugboats like the real Russian CV’s ? , you know because of all the engine room fires.
LOL so true.
“All the engine room fires”. Only if the rapair party consists of a worker who has a chance of taking a smoke break and accidentally igniting the diesel.
Wargaming better not change the huge detectability range because of the amount of smoke generated by said engine smoke stack. Probably gonna add yak-36’s with nuclear-tipped cruise missles.
@J.A Belmes Diesel probably won’t combust with a match or cigarette. The vodka surrounding the the Russian crew however….
They are really making a tremendous effort for me to kiss this game goodbye and go for another game
Sea Lord Mountbatten recommends the update mod for Battlestations Pacific. Looking into it myself.
How do you call yourself historically accurate and still add submarines with high mobility and Russian CVs even though they never existed?
@doomguy .23 from mars Yeah I can design a carrier on a urinal as well. Doesnt mean the russians could have built them even if WWII didnt happen until 1950, and then not know how to use them till the 1960s. You know who did actually build carriers. Italy and France. France even tested them. Italy also designed and built most Russian DDs. But somehow we don’t need Italy the 5th largest navy in WWII ahead of these historical Russian carriers (US, Brittan, Japan, France, Italy, Germany, Canadian, Australian, Russian).
Because in future years they are gonna be history
How do you claim this game historical accurate when everything are simplified into an arcade naval game?
Great, 2 things I hate in WoWs in one package…Soviet Stronk Ships and Carriers
Ahhh the memes are complete now…. wows has become a complete joke.
I started playing this game about two months after development when there were only two tech tree lines (US and IJN) but basically only play co-op and scenarios now and absolutely do not spend any real money on this game anymore.
This is definitely not what we need rn.
@Eagle262 honestly thought we’d get tone before that american thing
I’m running out of facetious ideas to come up with in the comment section as the next iteration of World of Warship ships because Wargamming beats me to it.
You make memes abouts warships and they think “thats a good idea!”
Here you go: nuke shells for Iowas as a consumable. Does 40k damage to a radius the same size as a cap circle.
@Ken Koonz Great idea. Except it will be applied to russian t11 super battleship
So they are emulating the real Russian navy, useless carriers with 10% increased chance of spontaneous fire on itself when spotted.
Have we run out of potential surface ships? – No! We could have up to 2 more Euro DD lines, Euro cruisers, Commonwealth DD’s and cruisers, Latin-American DD’s, Italian DD’s, French and German torpedo boats, UK and German battlecruisers, USN DD split, IJN cruiser split and probaly a couple more things that I forgot about.
But no, we get more bolsheivik napkin nonsense! :'(
History according to WG: The USSR had the most powerful and advanced surface fleet of ww2
Imagine radar planes xD
