GV's dissapear
« on: July 01, 2004, 01:38:58 AM »
Why do GV's dissappear when 1000ft above them.. reappear at 4-600 ft making it vertually impossible to track a bomb on them in time to activate the bomb. GV's were easily killed in ww2  virtually driving them to hiding by day once allies had air supperiority after d-day. Seems AH is going farther from 'realism' with every patch since buff boxes with lazer guns and cannon proof gunner's turret glass. i wont even begin to complain about the invisible field ack.
 My CPU system went basically obselete with  one patch  with the same game cept for more ground detail. A p4 1.6meghz  ati9600 pro 126megs vid and 512 megs ram worked perfectly in AH1 and ive had to constantly fart around with controls and the gaming experience is still very poor
 find something else that aint broke and fix it....
MY comments may be rough butt they arnt insulting. The last time I bothered to write on BB I got rude aholes repplying. please refrain if you cant be at least civil.
I just got thru a  very  quick web search for flight sims online, anyone playing any other games online/

GV visablilty is tied to your ground detail settings. If you can max the ground detail, you'll max the distance you can see the GV. Hard to do with your current system.

Pull up the clipboard, click on setup, video, graphics detail, and then move the sliders to the left.

Well i'm glad to see that the terrain is great... now you can't say that i just want to biatch, i said something nice.  Its great driving vehicles around in the trees and hills... very realistic! :)  

   BUT,
I just got off and if you can't see the GV's you can't kill them!  I read all the posts and they just don't work for me... I can't see GVs from the air till i'm passing over head or have started to pull out of a dive.  The buildings and strat targets aren't much better either.  Moving the silders does nothing ... in fact i think my performance and vis is better at the lowest distance.  

In fact, I just got offline to find answers to this... in a panzer i got killed 6 times never saw the tank that was firing at me and i could see the shells incoming... i was looking right at it from less than 20!!!

p4 1.8ghz 512kram, nvidia 64mb video card... and if that doesn't cut it,  i'm out!  Ranked in the top 100 for the last 4 months and hate AH2... I concur with Kak3Maw... whats next?:mad: :mad: :mad:
