Joining A Tank or Plane
« on: February 05, 2016, 05:46:47 PM »
Wish 1:

  Something that was enabled years ago was the ability to have -two- guys man
a tank; one as driver, the other as gunner. This was a lot of fun and I'd like to see it come back.

Wish 2:

 Joining a friend or squaddie's fighter can also be a lot of fun, but there's
no ability for the guy "riding along" to hear the plane's guns firing. This'd be a nice
feature to implement.

#2 is probably a bug.
I did not test this though. I'll try joining someone next time I'm online.

cant have a driver anymore, they stopped making interiors of the tanks.

which was the reason they wanted to make the tanks 1 player to begin with, iirc. they can put out more tanks in the same time when they dont have to model a drivers compartment.

Picture the inside of the wirble...is that really the reason? I remember the interiors as being very simple and plain.

This would be cool. Funny story. On one of our missions I somehow "glitched" into the drivers compartment of my T-34... It was really cool. I'm pretty sure I had to alt-F4 to get out of that view.
