Title: automatic gunning
Post by: orion1 on April 23, 2010, 08:16:28 PM
i think it is so irritating when your in the bomb sight and a fighter attacks you and you get shot down before you get to drop your bombs or you have to miss the bomb run to shoot down the fighter and turn around and start over. :cry

Here is the answer you're going to get from 99% here including probably the developers:

Get a friend to gun for you.  :aok

WarBirds had "Otto Gunners." Apparently they were very irritating.

Naw fun part of bombing is the dweeb that thinks you are in the pipe and slowly comes from Ded six.  Ill forget to bomb man the guns then turn around once the fiters are gone.  Or u can do what the dorks do and dive bomb it is allowed here since all those buffs were able to do it in RL.

      Which "all those buffs" are you referring to?  Some German mediums could, but Allied 4 engined heavies
sure weren't supposed to.

Why do you think we enabled joining and leaving in flight. You only need some one else to gun for a few minutes.

Pretty much if I push through on a bomb run when I have enemies approaching then I accept the fact that I could get shot down in the bombsite. (If I don't have a gunner that is) I do not, for any reason, want OTTO manning my guns.

Otto currently mans the field ack at our bases....do you REALLY want him manning your bomber guns with his aim?  :D

No, but I would welcome him along for a ride in an AH Boulton Paul Defiant; I'd rapidly become the Ace of Aces, courtesy of Sergeant Air-Gunner Otto.

really, finding a gunner isnt really that difficult. and do we really want Otto gunning in our precious aircraft, considering he can barely hit a plane from a stationary gun. think how bad hed miss on a moving gun platform
