If I’m not mistaken, this is the first time you’ve shown yourself using the carrier on video. In fact, I think you’re the only person showing carrier gameplay at the moment.
The first one is co-op with PHilbeRt! and MeckieMesser iirc, and old one, so indeed there were not many times this ship was deployed. It's the most expensive SP-wise, with most vulnerability and least own firepower, with only major feature being an onboard spawnpoint, which only spawns player atm. It's going to be addressed in the upcoming carrier update, with squads the ship can deploy. So currently it's the most boring ship for solo and small co-op play, even with its features and occasional cool moments like in this vid. To survive, it has to shy away from battles, so it has less of an effect, and when it can see some action, that same action can be its undoing. The ship literally relies on all allies to come to it, follow it or its commands, and avoid being jumped by enemies. And that is hard even knowing that AI and new players don't fly ships to their limits yet. One or two cruisers, or a squad of bombers, or four or so destroyers maybe can warp right to and obliterate it in about a minute.

It appears that this is exactly what would be presented in an upcoming update for the carrier, yeah.
And later on, this was exactly what has been delivered. Come enjoy directing angry bees! :D
