lots of players are running rround saying things like this -

"my cv wont manuel bomb, the key isnt working, what am i doing wrong"

here is the answer.

this key (;) is the secret, once your planes are at maximum altitude hold this key down
and then left click where you would like your bombers to dive!! IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE
THAT YOUR PLANES ARE ONLY DIVEING AND WONT BOMB!! to make them bomb dureing the dive, all
you do is smash the hell out of this key (.) if you time it right you can drop your bombs
at max altitude!!

warning, this is as accurate as your ability to click in the right location at the right
time, if you click to far in front you will miss and probably loose planes, if you click
to far behind your target may move from under your bombs resulting in another miss.

manuel dive bombing is hard to start, but it will get easier as you figure out the keys..


you can make your dive bombers dive to avoid being shot down, simply use the dive function
( ; + left click) where you want them to dive.

best way to manuel db is to aproach from the rear and try to hit enemy ships in the centre
for maximum dmg.

have fun.

hold down period and aim farther then the ship by an ff length.

You will get consistent and perfect max altitude dbs with no dropping. the catch is they
drop an ff length behind the marker the second they will start their decent.

Don't know what you're talking about erad. I can drop at max height to the spot where I click.

"Manual db is terrible

DB's threw bombs about an ff's length in front of a ship when the cursor was perfectly
positioned on top of it "


Because you're suppose to lead the ship. The higher your DBs are, the more you have to lead.

Maybe you're the terrible one.

No, I was also including belt hit. Belt hit drop from default and belt hit drop at sea level.
He just said maximum alone .
Because I love playing with words, it could be maximising your belt hit damage.
Sounds retarded, but it still hold the truth.

If he said perfect, that's another story.

EDITED.

Small correction, maximum damage through manual DB is done by max altitude, hit at any
location of the ship.
