After hours of flying landing sometimes becomes a real burden, I wish that we have option for auto landing similar to auto take off or a `.land runway` command like `.land NE` (actually the code is already exists , you can observe it while landing your bombers, your drones will go auto landing mode as soon as you drop the gears)
of course should only work if the plane is not damaged.

Should do away with auto takeoff instead.

PW landings are an additional factor to the fun. :D

Perhaps along with auto-takeoff and auto-landing, we could add combat-autopilot. Then we could just sit back, drink beer and watch as the game takes off, fights, and lands for us.
:lol
-
for all those who ridiculed the subject if you read carefully you will realize that i am talking about an option, which means something u can turnoff/on if you don't want to use....
I rather like to sit back, relax and light a cigarette while my plane is landing in auto mode after a long sortie.

same goes for the auto take off if you don't like it just disable it that simple. :bhead

:lol
:D :D :D :D :D :D lol not bad of a idea considering the drones in offline missions are much better than most of the regular players.
-
Only if it disables the "Karnak landed 4 kills in a Mosquito Mk VI" message, doesn't count as a successful landing and doesn't give the 1.25 perk multiplier reward for a successful landing.
-
I say add it. The learning curve is steep, not everyone can grasp the principals of flight, acm, attacking,bombing, ect. It would ease a little pressure and be a tool to new players( could use more of those past two weeks)
On a side note would be and easy vulch lol, a non attentive pilot and a delay trying to get out of said auto pilot when u do come screaming down lol.
-

No way. This takes away from the experience and a players interaction with the game. Come on, we are talking about a couple of minutes of attention to land your plane.
I understand it is nice to step away from the computer from time to time for a break. We have auto pilot and auto takeoff. Can't you wait just a couple of minutes to land, roll auto and you can step away during climb out?
-
for all those who ridiculed the subject if you read carefully ...
I read carefully. Landing your plane is a burden. And in in your follow-up, it wastes valuable hands-free smoking time.

let me know if you still cant understand , I see if i can found a coleredbook on the subject which seems more suitable to your IQ.

Why are you convinced that I'm not understanding you? Are you not understanding that I do and I still disagree with you? Players can at least universally deal with the 'burden' of manually landing kills (or just landing). Methinks your own IQ sprung a leak. :lol
-
lol dude the point is its freaking option.You can not disagree with option which allows you to have both ways... there is nothing to disagree with it... if you don't like it you have the option to not to use it... sawy ?
its not I am asking for all the landings to be turned into mandatory auto landings.... :bhead

What do you mean there is 'nothing to disagree with?' Do I need to color my post where I typed universally? Land your plane, dude. On a CV, even. Suck it up and light up. :D
-
Hotcoffe, I understand completely what you are asking for and why. I just completely disagree with your wish. That is what this board is for, you have an idea, you've presented it, and now we are allowed our opinions on your request, without you telling me I have a low IQ.

Aw hell. He can type that. I can appreciate irony as much as the next guy. :D

The game already has auto landing if you use auto pilot right!
Lineup with RW press x and use throttle to control sink rate,I use this whenever I get a PW,cant tell you how many times I've landed while blackout!
Gamey,yes but it will work with a little practice,so wish granted!!! :devil

Actually yes it does! as long as the CV isnt turning and holds it's course you can do the same as on a base,in fact it may be easier because of the hook and catch wires!

*files away in Wiley's Big Book o' Last Ditch Techniques Vol. III*
Yeah. Gotta agree with the naysayers for this wish. Landing is a burden. You get a reward for doing it properly. I suppose I wouldn't have a problem with it if you didn't get the rewards for a successful landing off it, but at that point why not just auger?
Wiley.
-
What Wiley said. If you don't put out the effort you shouldn't get the same reward. Kind of like the stall proof mode of flight…..it's easier, the price you pay is you can't get max performance from the airplane.
Simple fact, this game/sim is extremely easy to fly…there is very little challenge to flying any of the aircraft modeled. You can do everything wrong and still make a successful takeoff or landing…no reason to make it any easier.
-

:salute
But they do turn. And with a land airstrip you have a lot more length. On a CV you have a specific spot to trap on and throttle adjustment is a big part of that. :salute

B*I*N*G*O
-
Some of the car racing games reduce earned points by how many auto functions you use. That could be interesting. Combat Trim would take a hit.
-
If I can land a PW'd engine-out 262 on a CV, you can be bothered to land your plane on a regular field.

We already have that option. It's called "watch a film by Dolby"
As for the OP, are there any other hand-holding options that you'd like to see? I have a feeling that this is the gunsight you use:

After a while you will land with your brain on autopilot. Only landing on a turning cv will be a relative challenge
Sometimes I just think of something else while rtbing and come back to my senses when the wheels touch the ground.
-
I want the OPTION of AUTO AIM sometimes it becomes a real burden to play the game and people on ch200 say I suck at aiming so I want to kill them to make the game fair. Also I want infinite ammo as a OPTION too.
Also lets have the OPTION of no drag because drag really drags you down man.
Remember if you don't like them you can just disable them for you and let the others have them.
-
How about...
We implement this auto landing thing, but when you do it it has a 99% chance of making you bail out :t
Do not be lazy :old:
-
Geez, give the poor guy a break, he only had a suggestion. Probably everyone would be fine with his concept so long as you were penalized somehow - as Karnak pointed out - for autolanding. Might be that people who aren't interested in scores or perk points or honing their plane-handling skills would be fine with that.

When people become too lazy to land their plane, this game (and the human race) is in trouble. :old:

....well....I believe that over the years I've found a number of vets who use auto-takeoff.
just sayin' (tm Pasha)

I have been playing this game about 3 years now... landing at the beginning was a challenge and i have land planes in every possible situation that can come up in this game...
including gliding couple sectors and than landing, landing b29s with out elevators, or landing on a carrier, landing into hanger to avoid vulch ... etc etc.... once i even made successful landing on a skinning carrier (actually carrier start to skin right after i land and i happen to hit end sortie couple millisecond. before it sunk).
SO the point is , after flying a long sortie If i believe that the situation around the airfield that I am going to land is safe for auto landing, I should have the option to do so....
And cant see why you guys still can not grasp the such basic thing A OPTION means you have an option to not to use it if you don't want....
If we follow the reasons you guys bring up we should remove , auto take off, auto trim , auto trim modes (or more commonly know as auto climb and auto angle in the game) and auto pilot from the game as well.... auto landing is not different any of those.
But never the less , here a idea slightly different idea;
`Make a achievement , some think like after 1000 successful landings your are entitled to use Auto landing mode if you want` and after 1000 landing , auto landing either appears under `Flight` or a dot. command is becomes available to use.
-
Provided that autolanding does not work with damage or pilot wound, activates below some certain speed and uses correct landing pattern and approach speeds, I see nothing wrong with this wish. Many players would probably land manually, because it would be a lot faster way to get down. Autolanding would be similar to auto takeoff that I use 99,9% of the time. I don`t really care how someone lands their plane, although seeing a wingless fuselage tumble down the runway is a funny sight. It also cracks me up when someone makes a mistake on landing and explodes, not so rare sight when manning those cv guns. :lol

Except for the fact (that you've apparently gone to a great deal of work overlooking since it's been mentioned more than once) that there are no point modifiers for taking off, trimming and afk mode.
Now someone gave you an option to augering (use that auto-pilot feature once you get lined up and you fiddled you rate of decent) then kick back, shake off the shakes and light up.
Or .... just auger.
P.S. Nobody here thinks you don't deserve some sort of recognition for all those landings you made.

I even remember landing a a6m on top of the 8inch turret of the cruiser to see if it going to count as ditch or successful landing...

I work from home and fly a lot of the time some days. If I get a client call or system issue would be nice just to invoke the option of auto-land. Like the gentlemn said, it is an option request. You don't have to use it if you don't want to.
Also. wife ACK can take you unexpectedly away for the heat of battle. The more you think about it the more reasons this option would be nice (deliveries, pet events, child events ...).
-
as long as you don't get the 1.25x perk bonus or the death multiplier (for scoring purposes) for landing successfully.

Part of the mission profile is landing.... on the runway. To get the max points/perks this is what you have to do. If you land off the runway you lose points perks, if you bail you lose points perks. So if you DON'T finish the mission profile by "autolanding" you should lose points/perks.

Since this being a game i am pretty sure those rules can be bended a lil to provide a lil more confort to gamers...

And thats the point, where to draw the line of "bending the rules".
In the case of landing OFF the runway, HTC has said that inch off is too much and so you get a ditch, no matter how many "newbs" skid off the runway with a poor landing. It is part of the skill NEEDED to complete the mission. Autoland would negate that part of the mission.

I can teach you to land in 15 minutes if you want? Let me know.

We get that you want it to be an option. We just don't think you should ever have that option.

What are points/perks? jk
For those that find points/perks important sure tweak this any way it makes those folks happy.
It would be a nice option is all.

Next shall we have bomb sights calibrate themselves automatically, so all you have to do is jump into the bombsight? I mean it sure is an awful big trouble to calibrate, especially when you need to gun, and in your shortsightedness did not bring any help, or even plan for attackers.
-
You can almost already do this. Line up with a runway, set your nose attitude and throttle then hit alt x. You're plane will slowly descend toward the runway. When the time is right drop the gear and flaps, tap the i key to level the nose and let it settle onto the runway. Tap the brakes and you're done.
-
For once I agree with Arlo.. 'Tis a silly idea.
-
I say add it.
Also add the auto-fight option so that I can leave the AI to fight for me while I go to the toilet/beer/supermarket.
Also allow it to do ".ef" and respawn, taking me out of the equation completely and freeing me to do other stuff with my life.

That was great.

Yea ..i agree it should be featured for those who cant land a plane ......because its really hard to line up a runway and...just coast in....yea thats hard to do. :pray...but no maybe for the new people to try and VIEW on how to land...me personally i say no...cause i dont even like that i cant push none of the buttons on the panel.. :bhead
