Yes... I have given up on trying to use torps.. NO easy way to train, as it tough to see where your torp goes in the 1st place. Not to mention the ack is a little out of hand near Carriers. I constantly get nailed in my 47 at 500mph.. way to far away to be realistic IMO. So thanks for the post replys.. but until things change ........ I quit... torpedoing. Jed
If you want practice make an appointment with a trainer for some time in the TA, they can move the CV's around the map and put one in a position that allows a quick flight from a nearby field. I don't recall what it's set at off hand but they can also adjust ack lethality down so you can see when you're getting hit and at what range.
A single plane making a torpedo attack doesn't have a high chance of success, but it can be done in the MA as I indicated previously. I don't bomb much but I really enjoy torpedo attacks, I usually fail but I find it fun and when you succeed it feels pretty damned good. Fortunately I'm used to my flights ending in a flaming wreck.
If you want to give it a shot give me a holler if you see me online I'll be happy to grab a TBM and we can go see if we can hit anything.
