Multiple Gunners ON-Board

That being said, i say NO way to allowing multi gunners in the aircraft. It would give a huge advantage to bombers to load up on crew and just fly into the nearest dogfight and use its 8 50 cal or more machine guns to its advantage. Each gun firing in a different direction and at another potential target would not be fun if you were on the recieving end of a deathstar B-17 or B-24.

Have you ever tryed gunning on a bomber without the help of External View mode?just curious is all.

Honestly, a bomber pointing its guns in all directions would be an easier kill.

Ask this, are you affraid of being shot at by a C.202?  That is the firepower you're talking about.

You guys talk like they'd be hacking fighters out of the sky when the reality is they wouldn't have the stopping power to have a prayer.

As to the request, there are technical reasons why it won't happen.

I see this way too often in the wishlist forums (and other forums as well).  Someone makes a suggestion and instead of supporting it, giving constructive critisism, or just keeping their mouth shut, they flame the guy who made it and tell them to quit or go play another sim.  I bet HTC loves it when you refer their business elsewhere.

BTW this isn't meant as a direct insult to you Krusty just using your quote as an example, as I've said I see alot of this.

Isn't Warbirds also owned by HiTech?

No, he didn't own it. He worked on it. AH he creates and owns, which maybe is why AH has a generally better flight experience (*shrug*)

Incorrect.  He owned Warbirds...he created it.  He later sold Warbirds and his company ICI to Wild Bill who then turned ICI into iMagic and promptly turned Warbirds into crap.

Just a Wish.

The search feature is a valuable tool on these forums.  If you had bothered to use it, you would have seen the numerous requests for this feature and HiTech's explanation as to why it will not happen.  If you're too lazy to do that, then muster enough energy to find Ghosth's post that explains why it won't happen.

I would love to have more then 1 person attached to my bomber. I think it would be very kewl. We had a mission this weekend, Sunday into Rook terriortory. Just so happened we had a few buffs with gunners. Was very intresting since the base a real mess, and lots of uppers. We weree able to hit our targets, not just because we had a few escorts, but we also had gunners. It helped, and was a blast.

Cheers.

And yes I would like to be able to have more people be able to jump in if it could happen without detracting from from the games great non latency. Or very little.
