Title: PT Boats?
Post by: fbabob on September 25, 2009, 03:41:37 PM

 :cry Is it true, what im hearing? From what im being told, if you launch torpedoes from your PT boat & die. And you go to launch another PT boat your torepedoes disappear!  Is this true? and WHY Would they do this?  Torepedoes didn't just disappear during the war, Whats up with that!!!!

Your torpedoes disappear if you launch another vehicle. Yes.

So, if you want your torps to run...stay dead for awhile. Don't immediately launch another sortie.

Boats could not indefinitely spawn in the war either, especially not at absolutely incredible rates. 

Also, Blooz are you sure of that?  I've definitely gotten more than one "ship destroyed" messages the next sortie after launching torps then dying in Ju88's.  I feel as though I've seen some pretty serious torp spam of someone re spawning 10 times in quick succession, launching torps then bugging out.  Maybe they just had several friends.

If this is true I like it because it keeps the PT spawn from hell.  I mean come on we all have done it.  CV at PT spawn and we launch PT after PT with wave after wave of torps.

Weapons from a previous sortie that are still in the world are destroyed when you start a new sortie. Vehicle supplies are excluded from this.

This is true but in WWII when you died you didn't get to start a new sortie so you could launch more topedoes either.

One launch, one death you're out.  Seems fair to me.

Would this be true of Land Spawning LVTs at a port? I remember having 300 troops dropped off between myself and 3 other guys. Wasn't enough ammo for 3 WW's to keep the damn place with that tool dropping 6 loads per minute.

True for troops.  True for bombs dropped.

I've seen the little guys disappear.
