How would the sound of the doors opening help?
Why have gear sounds? I use the sounds for gear up after
take off instinctively. I Never have to look at the lights.
Flap sounds? Let your sense of hearing take on part of
the load while your in a dogfite.
Why bay door sounds?
After a few times, you would get used to the sound of the
doors opening as being part of the run, IMO. Yes, I know
there are lights on the pilots dash and I know the chat text says
open or close. But when your inching toward your target, and
you have a p38 and 2 spits closing on you, it would be
much more convieneint to remember the sound of the
'bay door open' file than to go to the pilots station, check the
light, return to the bombadiers station, rezoom, recal the
crosshairs and maybe overfly the target. Of course,
one can just check the chat text, but again, you have to
take your eyes off the target.
(I like the other idea of having a light in the bombadiers station
too, but wouldnt this create a lot of new artwork for HTC?)
Why not just have ai take over from the start?
Are u in the right thread?
I think sounds are more realistic than the chat text saying
'doors open/close' , and once again, your ears are barley
used sense in this situation and can take on the open/close
responsiblility very easily, without having to take your eyes off
the target.
