Pilot Wounded
« on: October 15, 2013, 06:36:45 PM »
 :mad: This makes me so mad. Pilot Wounded makes me want to do this:  :bhead  more than anything. Many times have I flown a pretty good bomber sortie, only to be ruined upon landing because my pilot is

1) On break
2) Knitting a scarf for high-altitude runs
3) Drunk
4) WOUNDED

I rarely see the other 3 things... But all jokes aside this is bad for alot of bomber pilots. Perhaps a copilot could take over? Could we implement that? I hate shooting down a bunch of toolsheders who only go for bombers, and then getting ruined because of my wounded pilot. This is also annoying on bombing runs. I'm sure fighter pilots feel our pain too, but you don't get a co-pilot :) Perks of bombers.

understand your pain.  but there should be only 1 life per plane.  besides you really dont have a co-pilot any more than you actually have a navigator and the gunners only shoot if you have a gunner or if you shoot your self.  you have several positions but not the bodies to fill them out.

you dont want me to ho, dont point your plane at me.

How about letting us have 4 joiners, 1 can be a copilot who can gun, and 3 gunners to give all round coverage, and install the use of F-11 as a plane intercom that cuts down on the overall 'chatter' that can cause everyone to call for repeats, and HTC needs to change the tone from in-com/range/VOX, so that we can keep better attention to what is going on around us.

Not a bad idea...(+1) But if you've ever gunned for a buff you know there is a pretty big lag sequence...(-1)

if htc ever allows more than 1 extra person per bomber formation, it will be a miracle. i believe the last time he replied to such a request, it was something like "not going to happen"...
