I often play with my partner and we like to multicrew the tanks together, which was surprising to find out we could even do. When doing this you share no score for being the driver. assists as the driver would be welcome. Pretty simple, but would overall be great. In general, some kind of check mark at the spawn to spawn together in the tank would be awesome. It’s a very unique thing that you can do it at all as it is not possible in war thunder so it is the only co-op experience in a shared vehicle in a war thunder-esque vehicle game. Multicrewing is a missed opportunity there and only partially implemented here.

At the very least it would be nice if you could jump on and use the MG from outside the tank.
The ONLY issue I have with this suggestion is that it encourages more players to sit in a tank, rather than helping in some other way. Not even necessarily “more bodies on the point”, but a tank can be run with a single player, opening up other things that the second player could be doing.
At least with operation of the MG on top you can quickly switch between using the gun and being on foot with the rest of your squad.

I would disagree with that statement It frees up the tank to charge into the objective or move in you can focus on taking out enemy infantry or tanks with the main gun and The machine Gunner Can provide cover
Isn’t that already a thing with certain premium tank in Pacific?

you should try RO2 where you can have about 3 players inside a tank.

I have no clue as I have not bought any premium tanks.
Perhaps, though I am still of the opinion that there needs to be a toggle switch that lets the AI machinegunner actually make use of the machineguns at his disposal. Toggling it on lets him operate it, whereas toggling it off makes him shoot where the commander is aiming. (similar to the toggle flamethrowers from the mech event).

insanely cool tank gameplay in red orchestra, one driver, one commander, one gunner.

But you can already multicrew the tank. You just dont get assists.
I have haha.
it is a bad idea and should be discouraged. you could ultimately have 6 players in vehicles doing effective work of 4 people. having extra player in tank wont bring effectiveness of the tank up, but having extra player in cap can be difference of win and loss.
I also would like to see this system a bit more developed. Some tanks are basically begging for it, with weird MG’s pointing in all kinds of directions.

YES, it is already in pacific.
This will come sooner or later as we just need to introduce that system to all rides.
