HTC can we have "crews"?
« on: April 30, 2002, 10:23:41 AM »
What I mean is on mutli crewed planes can we have more people listed other than the pilot? It sucks when I get pilot wounded and it affects every crew memember on the plane. This goes for GVS too. Is this something we can look forward to in the future?

Or maybe have a piloted gunner for each gun on the A/C your flying. So you could join 2 people on a TBM or each gun. instead of just 1 gunner to 2 guns

Thats the multi human gunner request, what I'm trying to ask is for an real crew list rather than just the "pilot" doing everything.

Example: If my B17 gets attacked, and my tail gunner is killed, this should ONLY affect the the tail gunner if he was the only one hit. As it is now if ANY crew postions take a hit then they ALL black out reguardless if they have been hit or not. This is what I'm asking HTC to please change.

no beefcake, only if the pilot gets hit the gunners will black out as well. If a gunner gets hit, it dies (although thats a RARE thing, you can pump 500 rnds of quad 50 cal into a buff's tail and the tail gun will not die. *sigh* )

Yeah oxman, that was one of the best parts in Air Warrior.  Made flying buffs a real joy when you had 6 gunners a navigator and copilot on board.  Only sad thing is that the pilot was always the pilot, you could not 'switch' with the co, but the the rest of the positions could jump anywhere they liked.  Used to call em deathstars. Course in here you get guns whether you have a crew or not, so when the switch happens it wont be as cool.
