Fix it so Pt Boats can land their kills
« on: July 29, 2011, 01:12:04 PM »
I don't always survive fighting in a Pt Boat, but I would like to have the option to land those scalps upon that rare occasion
when I manage to survive.

There are only two options, drive it back to the nearest CV......which might take an hour or two,
or go back to the nearest Port.....and that might take an hour or two if you used a remote spawn point.
If your CV was sunk during battle......well, there goes the option to safely land your kills.

If you drive your pt boat to friendly territory.....upon exit you either get a Ditch or Crashed message. There is no
way to get a safe exit when in friendly territory. Tanks can land their kills at a remote spawn point if there are no
cons within 5k is my understanding. The same should be implemented for Pt Boats. Thanks in advance.

I'd like to see the PTs able to use the rivers.

All it would take is more spawn points added to the bases that are near the rivers.

I've always been for the idea of making the PT landings similiar to the rest of the GV set.

Make it so PT's follow the regular gv landing criteria.

Cant you land a pt boat already by simply beaching it near a friendly airfield? i got a "landed" message in a pt boat before, i had beached myself so im guessing thats how you land it?  :headscratch:
