View Full Version : Can't see with AA gun

Alright, I'm at a loss... my rear mounted AA gun is basically... impossible to see with. For a broad range of elevation, the conning tower wall behind the gun is between my camera view and the gun... so i can't aim. if I aim high or low enough, it goes away... but conveniently, at the angles i need to attack planes, I can't see squat.

Any thoughts? Anyone else have this problem?

I'm basically stuck relying on my crew to man the AA guns...

This is a well-known and well-documented screw-up. Note the distinction; Bugs are unforeseen errors in programming. This is a travesty of testing, or the lack thereof.

I am not sure. I am at work right now but I know on the Deck Gun that I can right click to go into a binocular or zoom view. I am not sure if this works the same in AA mode.

We are talking about the AA gun, on the Gar & Tambor class boats, if not others. Zoom mode has no effect, other than to move your view closer to the conning tower panels.

Be more aggressive! :)

If you do well in a patrol you can get different things. I got a cut away conning tower for my Gar class sub, and now the wall around the Flak gun is no more. Now where are those survivors :arrgh!:

Yup I had this problem also. When I switched to the twin 20mm I couldn't see anything port or starboard. I was awarded a cut away conning tower after my first patrol with a Gar class boat.All that's left is a rail around the 20 mm mount.:up:

that's a bit...annoying. I'm on my 4th patrol. Patrol 3 got me an upgrade from the Salmon to a Gato... maybe this patrol will earn me a decent conning tower.

*shakes his fist*

As for boats I've had this trouble on... My first three pats were in a salmon, same problem. Now I'm in a Gato with the same issue. Truth be told, I can't visually distinguish one boat from the other.
