no kidding,
how about some civilian ships to shoot at as well.. the crappy part about being an attack plane is everything is shooting back at you in this game.. in war it was not so

So task groups didn't fire a shot just let enemy planes fly in?

Negative ghost rider, Im not talking about task groups.. Im talking about more trains that cross longer distances, cruise liners, merchant ships.. not everyone shot back.. did you ever watch some of the attack footage on the P-47.. I would say the majority did not shoot back.. look at the P-47s real war record at convoys destoyed and you would see that would be impossible if everything shot back.. futher the way arena's are set up are a real problem for any attack plane because its impossible to gain the advantage of surprise.. on a real attack mission I would think it would be rare to have 8 LA's up to 10k in 3 min

a ship would only explode like that if a bomb/torpedo hit the ship's magazine

*it would kill frame rates

Because that's a film of a demolition, not a bombing. I suggest Hooked On Phonics for you btw.

good video and i agree... when ships get hit by a bomb they dont keep moving, they explode unless the bomb doesnt hit the ammo magizine

but its not the type of explosion a bomb would make and ammo magazines aren't modeled into the ships

--.-- What is realistic is a torpedo hitting the ship and it limping around for 15-30min before sinking but maybe speed this up bcause the ngiht day cycle is faster you understand??? Plus what i have been really looking forward to is being able to disable the ships turbine or its engine.
