Pre- and Post- CV Rework Stat Comparison

If anyone wants hard numbers on just how things have changed with the CV rework, here you go. It's not quite how things are often portrayed.

I pulled 1-week stats for this previous week and the week just before 0.8.0 (aka the cv-rework) dropped. Specifically, the weeks of 1/19/19 and 4/23/19 for the NA server.

The comparison looks at class averages. The ships represented within those averages have been weighted against their total number of battles played, and the total of their respective class. This will reduce the effect that a little played, but exceptionally good or bad ship will have on the final results. Furthermore, only tiers 10, 8, 6, and 4 will be looked at, as they are the only tiers will carriers at the moment.

Watered down results in graphical format can be found here: Link to Imgur Bar Graphs

And a more detailed look at it here:

Well, I was going to post my observations after the numbers, but holy crap, that's a lot of numbers. I figured after typing those that dialog would be more likely to be seen if it was up here.

So, what do we see?

At Tier 10:

• All classes are doing slightly less damage
• Fighting around the caps is more common
• Survival rates have lowered for all but CVs. DDs dropped 10% (31.99 to 28.75)
• Spotting damage is lower across all classes

At Tier 8:

• All classes are doing slightly less damage
• Fighting around the caps is more common
• Survival rates have lowered for all but CVs
• Spotting damage is lower across all classes

At Tier 6:

• Carriers are doing 12% more damage than they used to. Everyone else has dropped
• Survival rates haven't changed much except for DDs. They dropped 10% (22.19 to 19.93)
• Spotting damage is lower across all classes

At Tier 4:

• Carrier damage has dropped significantly, all others raised slightly
• Survival rates have dropped for all but CVs. DDs dropped by 13% (20.8 to 18.16)

Overall:

• The population is down currently for all but CVs
• The CV population has exploded at all tiers
• CVs are doing less damage at all but T6 by fairly significant amounts
• CVs are getting fewer kills at all but T6
• CVs are getting significantly less spotting damage at all tiers
• DD survival rate is down across the board
• CVs spot more than any other class, but are actually spotting less than they used to at least as far as damage is concerned

Personal thoughts:

• If we had the current CV population with the old system, things would be much, much, much worse
• Formatting on Reddit sucks, and my hands hurt
• CV spotting is still a problem, but is it better than it used to be. The CV population is just making design flaws much more apparent
• Server population appears to be down a bit, but that might be a seasonal thing / bad time to be sampling data
