cv groupes 2 powerful
« on: December 08, 2002, 05:08:33 PM »
i was attacking a cv a few days ago :eek:  and i reolized it is encredbly hard 2 make a dent and thats if u r lucky enough 2 get into range
4 torpeedoes hardley effect it and there so hard 2 aim
the only way 2 kill it is wit a lanc the other ships are easy enough i came out of a dive and my wingman got the carrier so i pulled up and droped 2 1000ib bombs onto the back of the destroyer i nailed it
any way real life carriers wernt as hard 2 kill (in both ways ack and bombing) i no cuz iv got a few family members and friends who attacked crriers  in ww2 i let them have a go and they coulldant do it in any type of plane (i disabled the lanc lol)
there gunfire also goes right down 2 the warte evan wen ur close wick makes it hard 2 survive (the only way they did)
htc can u please make them easer or more real 2 kill

Most of the time CV's are already trivially easy to kill.  The only exception is when there are a pair of good 5" gunners.  CV's take more damage in AH than they would in the real world because in the real world they have MUCH tougher ack, high constant fighter cap, and thousands of square miles of ocean to hide in.  They also didn't have to fend off CONSTANT suicide attacks from top of the line late-war jabos.

Remember, PT boats were hardly expected to attack a carrier fleet.
