hit% vs objects in vehicle/boat

[Nilsen]

anyone know how to improve that hit% without shooting torpedoes at ships?

[Midnight]

Shoot buildings with 7.62mm MGs

[Wotan]

put pt rockets into a twn or city or ship. other then that torps are the only way to do it.

[Nilsen]

done that midnight, no effect. ill try your way wotan..

would destroying the pier at the ports do the same?

[Wotan]

you dont need to destroy anything .Just hit any collideable object. If it can be destroyed and you hit with the pt rockets you hit % in that category goes up. It doest matter if kill it or not. Theres several places on the maps where you can drive a pt to a city or twn and hit them with rockets.

Salvo 1 rocket at a time until u zero in.

The way I boosted mine was to take a Tiger I to a medium field and blow everything.

Strange.  I guess I don't know why got raised then.  I always just assumed it was because of destroying bases in a Tiger I.

yup, me to akak...my hit% has never been a "problem" before this tour and i dont think i have bothered to use pt boats against citys and ships..

maybe my "strat" page is porked

[Wotan]

hes talking hit % vrs objects from the start theres only ever been 2 ways to get this to register anything. with pt torps or pt rockets.

Unless it chanded with the last patch.

nope hasnt changed .. i been checking but no luck...

i even went out of my way to shoot a shore battery with a tiger just to check if it was certain objects that you could hit. nope.

about the only thing i havent tried is a vehicle hit on HQ. (im not THAT bored yet)

It must have changed, how else was I able to get my hit % to 17.647%?  The only time I've spawned a PT boat was last night trying to sink a carrier off A28 and I never got close enough to fire anything at it, nor did I fire any rockets at any town.

My hit % was at zero until I took a Tiger I up during the Pizza map rotation and spent the night taking out medium bases with 88mm HE rounds.

I know it doesnt work like that you missed not remember maybe you fire a torp or rocket with out realizing it. It you have fire all mapped it will do that.

Ill tell you exactly how to do it. On the pizza map you can float a pt boat up to a port and fire rockets at an sb without fear of getting shot if your careful. Otherwise on mindanao you can float up close to the city and shoot that.

From the skippers position swing the tube doors out. Move to the number four or number five position and without turning the gun elevate and get your range by firing until you get a hit. Immediately move to number seven position and fire a couple of rockets. If you are lucky you will destroy more then one building and your hit percentage will climb above one-hundred percent.
