From the WoWs Portal.

Captains,

It’s been less than a week since the release of Update 0.8.0 – a major, and probably the biggest change in the game yet, CV rework. We want to share the first list of fixes, changes and tweaks that are to be implemented to improve the new CV and counter-CV gameplay. But first of all, we sincerely thank you for your feedback and game activity, as well as apologize for any stress and inconvenience that you may have experienced due to massive game changes.

Please note that all information in this article is preliminary.

Critical changes and fixes that we’re working on right now (to be implemented within 0.8.0 in “hotfix” update ASAP):

• Reduce the excessive efficiency of X Hakuryu;
• Reduce the excessive efficiency of IJN Torpedo Bombers (reduce flooding chance, introduce spread debuff when manoeuvring);
• Resolve the “F-spam” issue, when a CV can just recall its squadron at any time without considerable penalties (increase the vulnerability time for the squadron after recall so that players can shoot down some planes before it completely disengages);
• Overall AA balancing: shift a part of the damage from flak bursts to constant DPS. Flak bursts proved to be an interesting aspect of AA. However, on the one hand, they deal disproportional amount of damage, and on the other hand, avoiding them often results in completely insufficient damage to the planes;
• Overall Attack Planes vs. Destroyers balancing. While this is an important thing to do, we would like to indicate that most players seem to underestimate the power of manual AA activation ([P] by default). Due to great destroyer concealment, if often makes sense to turn AA off until spotted. A destroyer spotted at minimal range is a lot harder to hit with the first attack run even with rockets. Although, this trick does not remove the need for further balancing;
• Additional Premium CV and UK CV (unreleased) balancing;
• Remove the inconsistency between  X Des Moinesand X Salemin close/mid-range AA;

Changes and improvements that we work on now in the timeframe of next updates (0.8.1 and beyond).
