Mission 10a

Correct me if I'm wrong...you are playing the American's against Germans or LFN's? in a DD...When I first got the Gigex version I played the Americans and in some of that later misssions in it I too was owned by the German DD's...once by fluke I think about 3 of em tied themselves up and maybe a cpouple others were sunk by tow somehow...but anyway so I switched to German...and WOW...beat the mission first run thru.....so when I just got this newer version about 2 wks ago I made it thru that 10A mission first time thru...playing Germans...and also quite easily made it thru 10b...out of fairness I will now play the Americans and see how it goes...I suspected ...and pointed this out that I'm thinking the DD's of the Americans are either under gunned or armored or something or the german ones are just too to awesome....I know it's hard to strike a balance ...I think In MP is where the real test will be putting the "Human" aspect into full play.The drones in the missions will only follow a script so you could expect possibly such results but I really think it will all change in MP...Personally I fear the PT groups that may form...these are going to be a nightmare for Capitol ship commanders to defend against.I'l llet ya know how my missions go... enigma!:

P.S. Just Amazed and Impressed with the graphics/game playability and just overall look and feel of this game....Following those big ships and hearing there guns fire make your mouth water for MP :) AWESOME!!!!

P.P.S. Is it me or is there a problem when pivoting one way or the other...It seems to do it when you first start the engines but it wont after a while...and plz don't tell me to use a mic...I have one but will not be using it most of the time... :) sorry if this has been addressed....This will be a serious hinderance to surface craft trying to quickly evade tow...

You can't pivot when you have way on (are moving).
Not sure what you're refering to.

According to the demo manual I have, the only time you can't pivot is if the engines are off (DOH) or if your craft only has one propellor.
in the retails you cant pivot when moving.

when you order a pivot your engines will be cut down till you reach a low speed (5kts i think) then the pivot will start and your engines will be set to the throttle you were at before you ordered the pivot.

Now I understood what Butxon meant.

Works the same in the demo missions from what I've seen.
