Towering at spawn

[Murdr]

Here's the HTC quote regarding this topic...

1)  If you are not moving and on a runway, you successfully land.
2)  If you are not on a runway and any enemy is in range, and you exit, it will be a ditch (moving or not).
3)  If no enemy is in range, and you are not moving when you exit, then you successfully landed.
4)  If you are moving and exit the vehicle, you ditch.
5)  The ditch can turn to a capture depending on the closest tower or carrier.

And the PT? when I spawn to look for cv, see nothing and then exit, i always get a ditch.

The only way to successfully land a PT is to come to a complete stop and exit within the destroyer ring of a task force.

If it's a small task force or a lone CV I like to get alongside the CV all the way up near the bow, then chop throttle, put it in reverse, apply full throttle until I stop moving then cut the engine and exit.  You can do this before the carrier completely passes you.

HiTECh  said the magic number is 5.0k  from enemy  both land and air.......You have to be stopped as well....  gvs

You can also successfully land a PT boat by stopping alongside one of the piers at a port.

Call me obsessed, but I watch every air con in the area until their icon disappears, then I sit and listen and look for any GV's that might be too close.  Once I have done this, then I will land a vehicle.  Like Bald said, I have driven several K past the spawn to get a safe landing.  I have never made a successful PT landing, so thanks for the info Bald.  As far as the pier, do you have to pull the PT into one of the slips, or just stop next to them?
