With the increase in scale in Victory At Sea Pacific we needed to let the player have greater control over planes. In the original Victory At Sea you could tell a carrier to attack a port or fleet and the planes would fly off, do their thing and return.
In the new Pacific game, the added threat of enemy fleets sneaking past you meant that players not only needed to tell planes where to hunt but also to target specific objectives. With this came the need to introduce more specialist plane types as well.
Based on feedback from the community we are also looking at players being able to swap out payloads and change what aircraft a carrier can carry.
