Stuka
« on: April 09, 2012, 03:40:01 PM »
I think that the Stuka, as well as some of the other really slow / high eny divebombers should be given a longer distance to spot GV icons.

I thought the storch was for the exact same reason. and that to end all GVers whine of i got bombed by so and so, they lowered the icon range for all attack planes bombers and fighters.

Meh, I think the icon range is good for GVs that are stopped but it should be much closer to the old icon range for GVs on the move.

The real problem is anyone should feel like they can come to this forum and make a wish without being treated in a derogatory manner.  The only discussion should be centered around whether it would work, or how it would work and so on always in a respectful manner.

REALLY depends. If hes moving out in the open, yeah, it should be about the old 1.5k (the icon means you don't actually have to do any of the work, so no further than that).

However, if he moving up under some cover...... 600 yds.


If hes stopped in cover, just about any cover at all..... you should have about 400yds worth of warning, and thats only for game-play purposes.



Personally, I would love to see a line of sight-style icon range. Say there has to be at least 40% of the tank clearly exposed for the icon to appear (since the icon is a MASSIVE advantage that they didn't have in real life).

Stuka's are so slow they don't need an additional range to view Gv's, basically if the GV is moving full speed he can be seen quite easily at a distance.

No need to mess with it.

     That would remove the point of why we have the storch.  When
     "Really slow" divebombers are still really fast compared with the storch.
     "High eny" really doesn't warrant giving them something other aircraft don't have.

Didn't we get "line of sight" with the new icon settings? I know it is a lot easier to hide in a barn or trees now.
