So looking at the test server forum, in the next patch or so they plan on modifying some aspect
of CV play. Two things really stand out 1) They are decreasing the sight of range of all fighters and
2) they are introducing Tier 5 fighters.

I want to see what everyone on the general discussion feels about this.

Well about decreasing the range of sight of fighter planes from what they are currently. I have to admit,
I think this might not be a good idea. This plan to decrease fighter sight range is going to chase away
a lot of CV players - and on Kaiser we have a serious - very serious problem of lack of CVs comming.

The idea by LJsevern is to force CVs to carry scout planes along with fighter planes. Basically, the idea
is that fighter planes should only be for fighting, and thus to provide sight for the fleet CVs have to
carry scouts as well -  this will enrich the content of the game and make CVs more "balanced" so to
speak.

I don't know about you, but playing CV is already extremely difficult as it is. You see CV players running
accidentally into the beach all the time because they are paying attention to their planes and not where
their ship is going - if you make them do fighter cover and forcing them to use scouts as well, that will
make CV's job all the more unenjoyable and harder. For one, BB players are going to complain and
verbally thrash CV players more - making everything all the more uncomfortable. The idea of nerfing
fighter sight range to "enrich" the player's experience does not sound like a good idea. It will chase
more wouldbe CV players away. BBs are always screaming for more sight north or south - and the best
way for a CV to do this is to get their fighters over there.

With less sight, expect more angry BB players - and less CV players too.

Another thing, scouts get shot down easily like droves. With fighters sight nerfed, you'd have to
continously replace more planes faster and faster. Fighters would even never see the ship that is
trying to AA them.

Remember before the old patch? Back then, IJN and UK CVs were competitive. After the patch we lost like
half of the CV community. Everytime they want to "tweak" something or "enrich" or "balance" something,
they ruin the efforts that players put into their fighter pilots and crews.

I use to play IJN CV back when there was the New York Server. Then they introduced the CV patch which
was a disaster for IJN and UK CVs. I stopped playing NF for a long time. And when I came back, I picked
up as a BB and not as a CV. So now I have a KM CV - and when they bring out this "balanced" patch, 
I have to go back and spend time to get and train scouts up because my fighters won't be able to
provide sight anymore.

But I'm worried the patch will make things so unenjoyable that I'll leave NF all together.

And the new Tier 5 planes. Good luck reaching lvl 115+. And also the T5s will make our current T3 so
obsolete that new players are going to quit like droves. It is very hard leveling pilots up to lvl 75 as it is.

I have to admit, after IJN and UK were nerfed, I was depressed to see that they are now going to
nerf the sight of all fighters now to make it harder for everyone. I don't know, what do you guys on
the general discussion forum think about this?
