Hood's Roll Rate In The Water
Posted: Mon Mar 14, 2005 4:36 pm
Does anyone know how authentic is the motion of the various ships through the water is?
I've been driving the Hood around. In heavier seas the roll rate, side to side, seems too rapid for a ship of that size. Is the roll rate simulated for effect or is it based on an "aquadynamic" model (for lack of a better word)?
Were the real Hood's 15" guns stablized, like the gun in an Abrams tank on the move. If so it this modeled in the game?
Excuse me if these questions have been asked already.
