Title: This would help to sneak up on a CV
Post by: JAWS2003 on June 28, 2005, 09:51:18 PM

The PT boat camo in the game is good to hide in the bushes :lol  but not to sneak up on a CW, or hunt LVT's.
 Is it possible to get a more effective camo for The PT Boat?
Something like this?

First off, Pt's operated at night.

Second, Camo schemes usually don't mean anything when you see a black dot and a tag.


Looks cool though.

They didn't operate exclusively at night and did quite a bit of their work in the daylight hours.

its no use... (the camo i mean)

* planes from above can still see your wake
* automatic CV guns will blast you away already (you gotta guestimate where the torps are gonna land)

The ability to create smokescreens would be more effective

If you could put a blue icon on it, you may have a chance

This was intended just as an example.  Someone with talent can make one.  I don't think is acceptable quality, and is not historical.
 I just did a little drunken painting on the default skin :lol .
 
 The thing that bugs me most is that PT boats have those long icons. comparing them with GV's or LVT's. :(


Hm.....Now how can I paint the Icon blue.:confused: :lol

Please AH, can we get a blue icon for the PT:lol

Why do the PT boat have such an unfair icon compared  with LVT's for example?:confused:

Unfortunately, the BRIGHT RED ICON over the PT might be a giveaway.

Picture this...make a ptboat have 2 shapes. 1 shape is a periscope when submerged. When surfaced its a long tube shaped thing. When a scope no icon..when surfaced an icon. Lets call it a sub.
