Tank dynamic crew

I think something similar was already posted by @VoyoMayPL but was audio addition if I remember correctly

Currently tank crew work as a single body and mind, the player actually control all the crew action, therefore there is a little or almost no immersion in playing as a tank so I think we can add some sort of dynamic functionality to the crew for make everything more spicy and immersive

Tank commander

  • If not used by The player it would talk and pin point with a marker just visible by the players, tank and infantry visible by him (so just enemy in sight no tank and infantry behind stuff or concealed in smoke)

Tank driver and loader

  • If the tank is stationary, not moving, and get some damage or catch fire who can be fixed from the inside, those two would automatic repair the tank

Tank machingunner

  • It would operate the coaxial machingun automatically if enemy soldiers come closer to the tank, are in the sight of the turret, and the players isn’t using the gunner or commander

Tank gunner

  • By pressing (button) the gunner is going to calculate the distance between your tank and where you are aiming, this can be useful for player using tank with howitzer instead of hypervelocity gun for long range attack

As for me, it’s great. But I’m not sure that some of the players with intelligence = average room temperature will be able to fully appreciate what you have planned. If it is difficult for them to use a hammer and build rally points. But in addition to the topic, it may be worth considering the topic of adding an Art call function.Impact (standard, not carpet bombing) . They’re almost all wearing headphones.

I would personally chose the commander and the machine gunner; it would be nice if you could choose who leaves the tank and when they leave.

Otherwise, nice suggestion!

very good suggestion

Still, I would like to add something

  • radio operator gunner

I would really like to learn how to use a machine gun - both under player control and as a bot

  • commander
    Ideally, the commander should be engaged in searching for tank-hazardous targets, determining the distance to the target in yards for the US and the metric system for others

Example
amazing and original work. Well, I just want to shake hands with the developers and express respect

Like WT ragefinger :wink:

I am for the fact that when the team throws a mark on the tank, the commander reacted and gave the command - tank or transport / armored personnel carrier - at 12 or 3 o’clock / distance 250 or 200 yards

generally good - any action / command must be accompanied by a command, like in the army

a subordinate cannot act without instructions from a superior in rank and is obliged to report the situation

I would like that for getting into the tank You Will need to Enter to the indicated hatch

For example, if the driver leaves the tank, when he wants to get back in, he will have to enter through the driver’s hatch the same goes to commander, Machine gunner, gunner and loader this ways looks more realistic instead or teleporting to inside the tank when You are looking to the engine lol

if i have selected for the entire crew to leave and not just the member i am controlling, the death of that single crew should not cancel the action

I think animations for entering and exiting the vehicle would be ideal. Stop the surprise dismount play a bit.

I don’t know why I got a notification about this, but it’s cool.
It would be great if, like the American premium APC, the gunner next to the driver would shoot by itself.

I really like the American APC for that reason, many times there is an enemy that I can’t see, or I’m busy looking at the map or something else and the bot that handles the other machine gun cooks everyone he sees, it’s great.

It would be even bigger if they gave the bots more free will. Something like Men of War, when you control the gun and the steering, the rest do their thing. The same if you abandon a crew in a house and micromanage another part of the map, you know the bots will hit anyone who comes into range.

I don’t know, this post made me want to play.
