Fux -> Flaws in Euro-Version? (10/6/2003 10:35:39 PM)

Hello Gentlemen!
After lurking quite a while on this board and finally buying the Euro version of this outstanding game I have some questions. :)

1) P-39D Aircraft Pool
In the aircraft replacement pool there are two entries for the P-39D Airacobra with different replacement rates. But only one P-39D Airacobra pool is used, the other is just piling up aircrafts month after month...
Also on the aircraft information screen there are two entries for the P-39D with exactly the same data...
Is this a bug or should the two entries represent two slightly different versions of the same aircraft?

2) AA ship uprade for the Farragut and Porter class
After upgrade the data for the two classes read as follows:

Farragut 280 AA value
20mm Oerlikon *2 RS (1)
20mm Oerlikon *2 LS (1)

Porter 250 AA value
40mm Bofors *4 F (4)
40mm Bofors *4 R (4)
20mm Oerlikon *3 RS (1)
20mm Oerlikon *3 LS (1)

The respective AA value after upgrading seems to be in line with the values from another thread, but why should the ship with more AA guns have a lower AA value? What am I missing here? Or did they mess up the database for the Euro version?

3) AA and ASW values from 1-10 when rightclicking on a ship
When I rightclick on a ship in the ship selection screen I get detailed ship info and an AA value of 250 or something but no ASW value at all and no "quick" rating from 1-10. Is this a bug in the Euro version?

All of these things arenīt really affecting gameplay but I just wonder whether JustPlay - the distributor of UV in Europe - is up for the job. Especially when considering buying other "converted" games from them with a much bigger database...WitP anyone?

Well, I was asking for the ASW value, too. But I still cannot find it in the ship selection screen. There is an AA value, but no ASW.
What is a "Quick rating"?

It makes the right selection of ships for ASW duty a lottery. So it affects your decisions on gameing.
Can't say anything about that P39 problem because I'm just playing the Japanese side for now and have not tried the Allies.
So - you are not allone ;)

bye, Gecko

Hi Gecko,
Thanks for your reply :)

[QUOTE]What is a "Quick rating"? [/QUOTE]
Well I was just refering to one answer from the pros in your thread where you asked for the ASW value...

[QUOTE] Right clicking on the ship in the 'ship selection' screen will give you it's ASW rating (ranages from 1 to 10, with 10 being the most effective) as well as it's AA rating and class.[/QUOTE]

So it definitely seems to be the case that they "robbed" the Euro version of this quick reference feature.
And yes I have to correct myself: Not knowing the correct ASW value IS some kind of lottery! (Although crew experience seems to be the best weapon) Especially when you look at my AA weapon upgrade example in my previous post, where more weapons mean less overall AA value. So when I am looking at the different number of depth charges at hand I can`t be sure that more of them automatically stands for better ASW value...? That is quite :(
