new carriers-pain in the :O

[bg108]

 well, i like the new carrier design, it looks nice. however, who came up with the screwy idea of the elevator being in the deck ? i was trying to fly larger aircraft off the cv offline, so i have not even tried to land yet, which i can do upside down sleeping. however, when i tried to take off, THE D-MN ELEVATOR GOT IN THE WAY!!! of course, no when i take off, i have to reverse all the way back, and on all bombers, i now have to use full aileron left to clear it, and i can no longer take off lancs, so i can imagine it must be hard for the noobs who try to land carrier-base aircraft and nose into the elevator and break off the wing and slide any kills they got into the drink. who designed the cv? i would love to see that elevator gone.

bg108 I can take any aircraft off a CV (with exception of 163) even the large bombers. What "large plane" were you trying to get off?

[Captfish]

I may be wrong but I think they were going for realism....taking lancs off the CV was prob not one of the concerns they had when rendering the new CV.
... I think the whole new fleet looks great Keep the upgrades coming!

So, basically, the new fleet sucks because its hard to launch heavy bombers offline?

[DEAR98]

Ture. I not saying its never happend but I've never seen a Lanc come off a CV in clips or pics have you?

[Raptor]

In all fairness. Would the aircraft elevator really be lowered (as it currently is) if aircraft were taking off?

[Strip]

No....

I want to know who came up with the screwie idea to model allowable landings of heavy bombers onto CVs in the first place. Or for that matter any airplane that couldnt do it in reality? Why is it allowed in the game?

I want to know who came up with the screwy idea that if you get shot down and die you can reup with a new plane and aren't really dead.

I`m not sure, but it`s one of my favorite features of the game.

Only off-line rich... B-25c is the only buff (actuall a light bomber in the RW) that will launch from a Cv in the current incarnation of AH2... to my knowledge!

[bg108]

maybe you haven't launched off the cv in a 24 or lanc lately. to launch, i now have to reverse to the back of the ship, full flaps and engines, and FLOAT THE WHEEL OVER THE ELEVATOR SHAFT!!! !!! then, of course, the whole plane slows down, and it stalls off the pad. if you dont do this right, you lose a wing on the conning tower, lose a wing in the shaft of the elevator, just trust me, it's a pain.

163 can takeoff too.........
