Gunner interface

[Micke]

Hi guys!

Was just wondering what type of gunner interface on bombers etc u're gonna use ?

WB like, where u can leave yer pilot seat and jump around or zee famouz Otto Von Firebaum ?

Personally i would like it to be like this:

If u take a bomber u need fellow players to get gunners, ie no mates, no guns. Someone ever see a B17 1944 over Germany with plane on autopilot and the pilot running around the entire aircraft shootin guns ? naaaa dindt think so  


Another more serious thing (hehe) :

I'm 30 years old..sitting here at work and droolin huge amounts of... over a computer game. My gf just told me that i am sick and in need of help, professional help.

U feel it too??

Cheers

Me thinks there was the no otto solution in AW - look what that did to bomb runs.

There was a nice suggestion on AGW some time ago... enable players to man gun station when the buff is already flying.

mike, your gf is probably right  

This goes down to the old otto debate. Do we, or don't we need computer gunners killing us?

I like the azreal solution....

One of the biggest downers for human gunners is the time to get to alt...  now for the pilot then maybe it's part of the game [did someone say 10k alt starts?]

By allowing in-flight gunner additons the pilot could call for gunners at say 40 miles from nme territory and in fact would get plenty of takers.

I love it and super-otto no longer exists!

I've got to disagree.  I like the ability to assume the role of other crewmembers.  It'd be great if you could get a full crew every time you took off, but that's not the case.

As to being able to join a bomber already in flight, that would be really nice.  I know that that is not as easy as it sounds to implement, but you never know.

If you insist on having human gunners only an d not letting the pilot gun then you will either get no bombers or you will get defenceless bombers.  That is not good.  I can tell you from Playing Dawn Of Aces that just finding ONE person willing to gun and available when you want to fly is pretty impossible!
