IF you add realistic norden, IF you tone down .50 buff turbolasers, IF you add drift and wobble to dropping bombs, IF you get rid of in-flight AWACS+GPS, IF you get rid of the magic perf-o-matic convergence, IF you are unable to fire through solid surfaces of your own buff....still NO, thks    :)

Cheers,

No.

Totally agree with Pepe too as long as blast damage is modelled.

I like the IDEA of it but it never seems to work.  I have never tried to write an algorithm for gun aiming but it seems that it is very difficult to create one which has all the flaws of a human gunner.

no...No...nO.... and NO NO NO again!

Otto would be fine if it had the weakness of a human gunner, but like Funked said, I haven't seen an algorithm yet that even comes close.

Otto sucks!

How about the ability to load more than 1 gunner... only one bogey can be engaged at any 1 time...
