What was the point of updating the carriers, when gaijin removed all maps for carriers at top tier?

EVERY MAP THAT HAS A CARRIER OR NAVAL TARGETS IN THE OCEAN CANNOT BE PLAYED OVER TIER 7.3
Why keep adding Naval planes if you won’t let maps with Carriers be added in top tier?

Anyone remember norway?

Sim has carrier operations, but they’re pretty janky. You can find carriers on maps of Straits of Dover, Denmark and Port Moresby.

Also, even at prop tier (ARB) I have not seen a single carrier map on my way to grinding out the entire american naval prop branch unfortunately.

I wish carrier maps were more frequent, but I guess the absence of historical (read: America vs japanese in pacific theatre, britain vs germany over dover, germany/italy vs russia over eastern front, germany vs britain over north africa, allies vs axis over western front) matchmaking contributes significantly given a lot of nations lack carrier capable fighters. I do occasionally see historical MM at tier 2 but it seems mostly absent at tier 3/4.

I think its mostly the “no carrier capable planes” issue. You can airspawn whatever you want but if those airspawned things can’t land on a carrier, and said carrier is the only runway, then there’s a problem.
