They're correct, I noticed the very thing many times in the past.  

Similar evidence was given for the world being flat. This is becoming a catalog of fallacious reasoning.

You film it, I already gave enough information to get the issue fixed.

I already gave enough information to refute you.

Post a film to Hitech so he can see what the problem is. If he's wrong he'll fix it. Deal?

I already told him what the problem is and he tried to zing me instead of taking a look.  I take it you aren't taking my bet.  :lol

You told him what you think is a problem and he told you why you were wrong. We're done.

Can you frame that cute little poem you wrote for me on page 8 and send it to me?  It's the least you could do for acting like such a fool in this thread.

I guess you have a choice. You can post proof of your allegations or you could just attack me in lieu of any sort of convincing argument.  :D

On some maps you can park the CV close to the shore so acks can cover the base.  However, this has nothing to do with the OP's original argument that ack needs to be toned down.

Post a film, why?  Anyone who flies or has flown in the MA for the past couple years knows the puffy ack acts exactly like kappa, fester, sunbat, uptown, titanic, and I describe it to.  That's just the way it is, it targets anyone that pops 3k, with the ability to shoot at everyone at the same time above 3k within range.  That's just common knowledge.  If you don't believe me go film yourself flying over 3k in range of the carrier with an ally above 3k closer to the carrier than you and with you not being shot at.  Putting the burden of proof on us is as laughable as asking us to post evidence that the sun rises every morning.  My guess is that you don't fly in the main arena often or you just aren't a very observant person/pilot.

hey you left my name out if it.... I also said the same thing
Yeah, that's right, you just got your rear handed to you by a fuggly puppet!

Sorry again akak.. But it was this very circumstance that prompted me to be the OP.. The whole above 3k for 2.6secs instead of 2.4secs and I got hit by the puffy inland of our field.. It was actually the 2nd time in as many flights.. and my original request was update or 86 it.. not tone down..

IMO, give the puffy ack a boost so its actually a deterent (such as increase the density and accuracy, but only let it update the true possition, vector, and speed of the target every 10 seconds), and drop most of the manned guns (from what AKAK has told me in-game, they were slaved to the Radar to improve accuracy, but I'm not sure on this).


If they (the 5" Dual Purpose guns on the ships) WERE slaved to the radar, remove the manned puffy ack entirely, if they weren't (or were only radar DIRECTED) then something needs to be done about them. Perhaps model the inside of the gun sponson, let them look around through the vision slits (you can use your radar to find the bearing of targets, and move the gun accordingly) when they are "unzoomed" and give them the crappy optics that the tankers have to use when they 'zoom in'.
You started this thread and it was obviously about your want and desire in spite of your use of 'we' and Google.

I never said they were "radar guided", I told you that the Mark 37 Gun Control Fire System (of which the Mark 1A was a part of) was both capable of optical and radar range finding.

the 5" batteries were also often slaved to the 40mm optical guidance as it was found to be more accurate against closer/maneuvering targets.

I think this is where film would be helpful.
Man just go up from a base where the CV is parked right off shore and film it yourself. Your reguest for a film is ridiculous. You're just grasping at straws and you know it.
