LegoProdigy 33 Report post Posted September 15, 2018 So I was doing the single mission "Hail", and it says that you need to destroy the ships "at any cost". This was realized to mean kamikaze tactics because of the equipped bomb (a huge bomb), and the reminder to "stay below 100m". However, I cant seem to sink the ships even with pinpoint accuracy. What are the best points of impact for sinking ships via crashing, as most of the wartime footage showed them doing a shallow dive into the side of the ships.

blastedryan 967 Report post Posted September 16, 2018 I'm pretty sure that mission is one of the broken missions. Yes. You're suppose to bomb, crash, and respawn as quickly as possible to kill the ships but I have a feeling the bomb is an AP bomb not the HE bomb so it does next to no damage.

sigma__zero@psn 4,650 Report post Posted September 16, 2018 The single-player missions are a relic from the early days of WT and have been left alone to rot for years. Things like damage models have changed but the missions have never been adjusted accordingly, so some missions are literally unplayable because of it. I wouldn't be surprised if the ability to destroy ships by kamikaze was present when the mission was made and was removed in a later patch, add several bomb nerfs to the mix and now you have a completely broken mission.

Actually, AP explosives were needed because of the american ship's armored hulls in the war. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
