Apache Posted September 30, 2002 Share Posted September 30, 2002 Just a thought. Did a couple of QBs in fog and can trace 600-650m in fog (in fact so far that I couldn't be sure if it was terrain change or fog that stopped LOS). I was quite happy to be able to go to 600+m, just don't want to get used to it if it suddenly drops to 150-200 (or 10!!!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offtaskagain Posted September 30, 2002 Share Posted September 30, 2002 It was foggy here in St. Paul last night and i could see close to a kilometer, so its entirely possible for 600m visibility in fog. Of course that was fairly light fog, more of a mist. Dense soupy fog on the other hand is like 30m visibility in my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pvt. Ryan Posted September 30, 2002 Share Posted September 30, 2002 There is fog and heavy fog. In heavy fog "you can barely see your hand held out at arm's length," according to the manual. I haven't played around with fog yet, but I was wondering which type of fog you were using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apache Posted September 30, 2002 Author Share Posted September 30, 2002 It was QB fog so I suspect it wasn't heavy. From recollection it does seem to be further than you could trace in CMBO (but in my opionion that was a bit to short - that said I didn't play many fog battles so it may be faded in memory). I quite like the current range and have never really thought about what LOS you can expect in it. Like I say, I was just making sure it wasn't considered a 'known issue' with an intention to fix. If it was I'd prefer to restrict my LOS and any targeting to the intended 'fix' LOS range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PondScum Posted September 30, 2002 Share Posted September 30, 2002 Try fog at dusk - or at night, for a really traumatic battle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvio Manuel Posted September 30, 2002 Share Posted September 30, 2002 FYI, In Chris Hare/"Wolfe"'s CM Charts, the visibility for CMBO was: LOS Clear Overcast Raining Fog Thick Fog Snowing Day 4000m+ 4000m+ 2000m 745m 250m 1000m Dusk/Dawn 1050m 760m 435m 200m 85m 250m Night 185m 145m 95m 55m 30m 65m Those #'s seem about right to me, I guess.

Apache Posted October 1, 2002 Author Share Posted October 1, 2002 Like you say, given those figures it seems about right. In that case I'll continue happily plugging tank commanders with my snipers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
