The PT Boat... Some Requests
« on: July 10, 2012, 07:53:10 AM »
I will attempt to keep this brief in terms of ideas.

The PT Boat has a Surface Radar, It would be a sort of Quality of Life Improvement if it worked for finding CVs even if only for yourself. I would also like to respectfully request that it give the direction that the CV is traveling in the form of a little arrow. This would make setting up a Torpedo Run a little more easier because sometimes It can be difficult to determine its heading at long ranges. Especially considering it can take almost an hour to over take the CV with a PT boat.

It would also be nice if the game showed how much damage you did in the PT Boat as well. It carries 16000 lb worth of damage against ships, which is more than a Lancaster can carry. Therefore when you land a PT boat with Torpedo  hits it should report the damage dealt as well not just kills.

Just thought I throw that in there being an avid PT boat user.

Thanks for reading!

Should there be a torpedo "gunsight" for the pt?
... missions were to be met by the commitment of alerted swarms of fighters, composed of Me 109's and Fw 190's, that were strategically based to protect industrial installations. The inferior capabilities of these fighters against the Mosquitoes made this a hopeless and uneconomical effort. 1.JD KTB
