Sir_Armand 49 Report post Posted September 22, 2020 I seem to have mastered the art of placing 2 rockets at the exact same distance on either side of my target, leaving it unharmed... Now, since that skill doesn't do me much good, I wonder if there is a way to set rocket convergence? Is it the same as gun convergence? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Josephs_Piano 6,071 Report post Posted September 22, 2020 AFAIK there is no rocket convergence - I try to aim just off to one side of ground targets because of this. Might try it for air ones if I remember but I try to avoid using rockets in air games! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nahguav 337 Report post Posted September 22, 2020 For things that fire two rockets at once, just pick a side and offset your aim to compensate. The amount of offset will depend on distance though. For things that fire one at a time, you have to remember which side is firing next so you can adjust your next shot. Some rockets, like the Uncle Toms on the Avenger, seem to fly unequally, and I had to use a different aim point for each side, the right side rocket always seemed to hit lower and closer to the centre than the left one. When I compensated for this I was able to be quite accurate with them, but it took a bit of trial and error to learn where to aim. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir_Armand 49 Report post Posted September 29, 2020 Thanks for the replies. I am slightly dissapointed that there's no way to adjust the point of aim, personally I find the "rocket christmas tree" hard enough to aim with. Ah well, it is what it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir_Armand 49 Report post Posted January 15 @Gaijin Maybe this topic could be worthy of a minute or two seconds on a thunder show? "How to use rockets". A few simple points about the aim indicator and how to use it, aircraft speed and angle of attack, effective firing range, different types of rockets, what they can/can't kill, different planes nd how rockets work from them... I there a "topic suggestions for thunder show" forum or mailadress btw? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do a research if it's possible IRL and if is - make a suggestion thread in suggestions section. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
