In the context of playing with friend, it would be cool to be able before starting the matchmaker to set it in a way that your friend can play INSIDE your squad, like a second human player rather than take his own squad, this way he could :
-experience vehicle or weapon he has yet not unlocked
-experience multicrew more easily
-experience multicrew in plane
-friend have the same interaction as you have on the AI, so they can also switch character in the squad
Of course it is not about forcing it to be like that, just to be sure there is no misunderstanding.
I agree with this, it would be a nice feature and allow players who want just a little more ability to interact with their friends, or get the most out of their tanks.
like if they ever add in mutiturrented tanks like the t 28 or t35, this would really make playing a tank crew intresting, to be allowed to spawn in with your friends in your tank squad rather then waiting for a crewmen to die.
this is a complex system, and not to mention that it would be unfair.
because, if i use a premium squad, and he is gonna join in my squad, we are basically overpowered as hell. and some of the two is gonna earn by the stuff of the other.
also, which squads are gonna be taken in consideration? what’s the limit on those?
many things has to be defined.
and in a free to play like enlisted, you are just gonna limit the man power overhall of the match
this system, i only would only see it as usefull and balance in a vehicles.
I didn’t think of premium squad, maybe close this feature if your friend don’t have the same content like:
“One or more friend don’t have the same access as yours, this feature is unavailable. Please change [xxxx] to play in the same squads”
And concerning the loss of AI i’m divided between “AI are not very useful, do nothing”/“Add free squad with no player that only play objective for each player in someone else squad”.
Yes there is ^^’.
I didn’t thinked of any limitation and i don’t know yet how the earning will have to work (we talk about grinding stuff you don’t have). But if you have any idea to clarify those point go on !
well, for my personal experience, and i spended a lot of time like many people,
i think, and i’m sure that those AI are not dumb. they are clumsy, but not dumb.
they help me with my push, save my life by throwing back grenades, killiing the guy that almost killed me, sacrifice them selves for save my bacon from snipers.
don’t get me wrong, sounds an interestring idea that might become a gamemode for limited event or whatever. but at the moment it’s too much effort for something that it’s not sure the outcome. if you know what i mean
Well one of the issues that prevent this is how they have crew slots in vehciles set up. Some vics have hull guns but you cant select that crewmen, only 3 seats can be controlled , the gunner driver and commander. this should be changed so that every position in a tank can be controled by a player.
This would be cool but if it is implemented it should only be an option in the lone fighters game mode
if you allow this in the main gamemode it will mean one side might have more human players than AI players, and one of those human players wouldnt have his own set of squads
if you let a squaddie spawn in as the second soldier in your squad in the lone fighters game mode it wouldnt be an issue since (if their are enough players to not have bots fill up the match) the match could be entirely populated by human players anyway
