Bearn: Bugged or Gutted?


Recommended Posts

Posted

So I took my Bearn for a spin this patch and noticed some weird stuff...

I've already had noticed the preparation time and turning circle of SBs was increased, I think it was nerfed some time ago. What's new is how the timer to deploy Interceptors again after an interception is not reseted, so you need to wait the full 'deploy time' of your fighters before being able to deploy them again... I don't need to point out how bad and breaking how that is for a playstyle that's centered on Interceptors...

I hope this is a bug, but the cynic in me is not in the least surprised by how the Devs seem intended to gut every fun mechanic there is for asymmetric ship types... first no more Sub vs Sub, then no more shotgun, now no more interceptors?  Just remove them from game if it is too much trouble, this bait and switch stuff is getting old.

Some crowds are tough to please, no compliments out of this match 😞

I looked forward to many one off CVs being introduced by Wedgie. Is why I bought the Graf Zeppelin. However, I sold it as soon as Wedgie forced reworked barfs into the game. The Bearn could have been a unique RTS CV. Unfortunately, as you infer, Wedgie seems to continually bait & switch with ship parameters. Is this due to their overall main design failures? It's beginning to look a lot like this, imo.

Why?

The interceptors are literally the most team friendly / fleet friendly thing there is about CVs...

The skip bombing prep time nerf was announced and is a good change.

Removing the interceptors have been used short cool down is just stupidity.

Why would you sell premium ship, makes no sense.

Nice cit-hits on the Scharnhorst.
Good teamwork with your allied DD.
Was curious about why you didn't turn towards the Capture Area sooner?
Congrats on the win.  Good game.  🙂

I played RTS CVs. I detest what WG did (& has done) to CVs. Only way to protest is to not play them (same reason to not play 'Flubs').

Bearn is extra slow and Clumsy, I couldn't turn with the BBs alive because they could city me easily, once they were sunk I turned... Bearn is that slow.

I have Bearn I got it because its a one off ( so far ) and as collector of unique historical ships, I have not played it in so long I cant remember as with my other CV's, nowadays sadly they have become  Port Queens through no fault of there own to many events where its quicker to use other ships to do the job.

 

However I occasionally find the time to sit back for a moment or two while scrolling through the carousel and enjoy Bearn's unique abilities in Port

Really wish WG had added her Torpedo suite , would have loved charging those BOT ships and unleashing a salvo at them.

Who's the artist? I assume the title is the song title. You always pick very good music for your videosSmile_smile.gif.054af9b329387282775b9db3

 

Good game, btw.

She's a french artist calles Indila, the song is indeed called Derniere danse. Tbh I didn't knew about her until I started looking for songs for the video, but apparently She's quite a big cheese in France
