I play carriers a lot and rarely get more than a general complaint about there being carriers in the game, nothing specific aimed at me. No better time to learn how to be competitive than under the harshest circumstances. Nevertheless, get in the carrier now while it sucks. So now at least they could compete in the matches. ***Carriers are no longer guaranteed +2 tier matches.

What has improved and it matters tremendously. Granted, I did more than 100 matches in coop prior to that in CVs alone. So technically, on Saturday I saw nothing but CV matches in Random. That aside, there was nothing more beneficial to me than actually dusting off the carriers and taking them out. I even once finished 3rd on a winning team in one match with 78k dmg in the Ryujo.

Did very well too, unless of course I earned the +2 tier matches. I spent all day Saturday doing nothing at all but Random matches in carriers. I recently just gave up and quit after my premium time wore out, but came back with the patch to see how things are. Under these circumstances, and with the new manually controlled flights, THIS is the perfect time to get good at it.

Now is the PERFECT time to start carrier play, if there is to be such a thing in the future, and for this particular reason. As someone who isn't even Anti-CV, my recommendation right now is: Don't start any.
