ORIGINAL: rvseydlitz You guys have a navy??? Ok..just teasing haha. Ha ha! Well it's sadly true it's not the size it used to be, though the units that we do have are all pretty top-notch and maintenance, training and expertise is still up there with the best. Is also still one of the few true blue water water navies capable of (limited) power projection, or at least it will be when we get those carriers! quote:
I think it likely that the plans for the carrier have indeed changed a few times, and the database shows a prior version of the plans. Indeed they have, though the first unit has been confirmed as a ski-ramp carrier for some time, there was some debate about whether the second carrier would have cats and traps for a while, though. Would of made far more sense in the long run to have cats and traps for both from the start (and the F35C and a fixed wing AEW aircraft), though budgetary constraints and political short-sightedness prevented this. quote:
It would affect gameplay as well I believe, but you can also go into the scenario editor, and remove the catapults, and any other parts, for any scenario you wanted to play before the devs corrected the official database as well. The dev team is very quick on those things though as well. Okay, though I think I'll wait for the Devs to fix it, I have a feeling it's going to take me some time to get up with to speed with this complex beast of a game/simulation!
