How about hitting ".ef"  then hitting SW, NW,E,W. It's that easy takes 5 sec.

Ya can't do that with a 262 now can ya?

  the game is concentrated on combat, not on shaking the screen.

I'm confused,  I thought it would be a tedious process to take a gun out of a wing, and put a new one in.

Even more complicated to replace a cowl gun or, god forbid, a center mounted gun. IIRC replacing the center mounted cannon of the 109 actually required removal of the engine.

  The whole point of going on the re-arm pad is to reload your plane... then take off again.. I could've have just landed if I wanted to.

You dont "waste perks" if you land sucessfull.

The rearm pad is an option to use. Say your ords go down and you had an A20, rearm it. You dont need to rearm it's there for you if you decide if you want to. Or say your VH is dead and you need supplies for ammo, just go to the rearm pad and your ammo will be resupplied.

I dont see the point of rearming a plane and fixing a damage that takes 30sec when you can just tower out and up a new one in 5 seconds.

Add it and make it take 30 minutes to do so.   How's that for a viable option?

no  :)

Its this simple, FSO was designed with a single life, to help immersion.
To help people take it seriously, to prevent exactly this kind of gameing the game.

Its real simple, either fly it with the damage or end your sortie and call it a night.

In my opinion, asking for something in the Wishlist so you don't have to end your FSO sortie is beyond infantile.

It is the way it is for very good reasons. It ain't broke, please stop trying to fix it.

yea, but 4 out of 6 guns shot out in FSO makes it hard for you to get that 4th kill :aok (not to mention 2 damn assists :(  )

Could it atleast not re-arm the damaged guns? No point in putting ammo in a damaged gun.

It's not our fault you have shoddy shot placement.   That is the CRUX of this thread.
