I accept that bomber aircraft are quite a powerful resource, but are extremely vulnerable to fighter attack.
In aircraft that have ‘slots’ for multiple crew, can we have the AI assigned to seats other than the pilot operate the defensive MG’s please?
Right now I have 2 crew assigned to a dive bomber and the ‘rear gunner’ sits and does nothing when I am attacked by fighters.
I wonder why that’s not already the case. I can put 2 people into my Bf 110 squad and assumed the second one would play the gunner role or that I could switch to the gunner position myself.
Basically once you have an enemy on your 6 right now you can do nothing but hope that he runs out of ammo.
I believe that the 2nd pilot earns an assist for every kill. But that just adds points to the leaderboard score and doesn’t earn extra base xp.
Why cant we just have ‘Otto’ gunners in Aircraft and tanks - what is the point of the radio operator in the tank if he cant use the MG or even use the radio to call artillery or smoke… wasted feature IMO
