PT boats?..PTBOATS???  What about us poor resupply M3
drivers, nary a message proclaiming our glory after a successful
run!  It's a crying shame it is, being the poor neglected
underbelly of the landgrab. :lol

Everyone's opinions are more valuable than yours! :p

No, they just want everybody to pay attention to them.  They're crying out for intervention, and we just can't hear their plea for help.

Bombing the FH or VH means no targets. No targets means no fun. If you think no targets means more fun, fine. You're entitled to your own opinion, even if I think it's stupid. But to expect me, and the people who happen to share my opinion on the subject to praise you, and to support the addition of code so that you guys can be recognized for doing nothing, is just supremely arrogant.[/list=a] [/B]
a.  Neither are you.  Please, don't think that skill in a game equates to anything in real life.  IT'S A GAME.

b.  Fly what you want, shoot what you want, do what you want.

c.  Realize that this whole thread is a pointless play by Morpheus to ridicule the guy who posted about bomber "recognition" the other day.  It's morph's way of making up for his own inadequacies.  J/K, morpheus.

Give me a freaking break... :mad: :rolleyes: :mad:  no WWII iron site gunner could kill with one shot at max range.

I don't even bother going in PTs anymore.


LOL ... Nobody ... and I mean NOBODY can hit a PT from an ack gun with just one shot unless it was just by luck. Whels and Zazen are two of the nastiest shots around and I doubt they can even do it ... one shot.

What you don't see from the PT perspective is the guy walking in the 37mm rounds to your hull.

I've been shot off the deck of our CV by Whels before, don't know if it was a 5"/8"/SB or what, but I spawned, started the engine, hit 5mph, and boom-back to tower! There were no enemy aircraft overhead or even within icon range. Even the friendly 5" were silent.

Hub, that is not appropriate tone or language for a moderator to use!

Im guessing that he is talking about the old towns in AH1 with the lazer ack in them. It used to be that if you were to pull a PT up to a town and the ack started fireing, you were dead within seconds.

Now that we have 88mm puffy ack's in the town, this isn't a problem anymore.

Who cares what everyone else thinks, deep down inside you know as well as everyone else who witnessed it knows you contributed to the cause and that your attack was not an attack in vain.
