"Confirmed/negative hit" for LTMs

[Dude388]

Not even sure it possible, most might not even care if it's added. But here it goes anyways.

There has been many a time where I've bee in a Gunship or heavy bomber and I've received "LASING TARGET" radio request from a teammate (NOT in my squad) and I respond with the "ON THE WAY" response. So I make it to the marked location and fire off a LTM, and pull out to move to another target....only to have the request be repeated and told the shot was a miss over the TEAMCHAT, which is hard enough to see when your trying to focus on the skies.

My suggestion is that the GLTD view (with the context sensitive COMMO-ROSE) would also have a "CONFIRMED HIT" and "NEGATIVE HIT"(needs work I know ). This would allow us to focus on survival in the skies and targets, while only having to listen for an audio confirmation on our shot.

Like I said it's not crucial to gameplay, but it could be an interesting addition and add a tiny bit of realism.

*EDIT*

AREM117 was nice enough to create some .OGG files with "TARGET UP" and "TARGET DOWN" commo-rose options. Here's the link to the files (they are in the .ogg format so you may need a .ogg player for it, try FOOBAR2000). Let me know if the link is broke.

seems like a good idea.


I agree it would be nice to have this ingame

[Priby]

yep, like it

[victor_phx]

That would be very helpful.

Good suggestion.

[Dude388]

Well it's goof to see that people like the idea. But do you think the method I used to incorporate it is plausible? If not, lets hear your idea's too.

[Harrod200]

Seems a sound idea and method. There's a fair chance the person who laseed the target will still haave his designator out and trained on the target, so it's an easy move to T-up/down to confirm to the pilot that the target is down. There aren't too many times where different targets are being lased for multiple attack craft at once, so not too much problem with contradicting orders from simultaneous attacks.

[carld2002]

I really would like that

[charliegrs]

it gets my vote

[random pants]

Agreed, a great suggestion.

I love this idea. Simple, easy to implement ("Lasing Target" and "Need Extraction" are broadcasted to everyone on the team), the hardest part is getting someone to voice act.

Instead of having two buttons, one for "Confirmed Hit" and the other for "Negative hit," we can use one button "Confirmed Hit/Negative Hit," where, like Sandbags/Razorwire, right click is negative, left click is positive.

I hope this is implemented. Great idea!

This is a good idea not only for bombs, but other things like support gunners who can't see long range with a spotter, or stuff like that.

I loved this suggestion so much that I made this. [ATTACH]2275[/ATTACH]
This Zip contains 2 sounds that i have created for the comm rose.
Edit: They are Ogg files by the way, so they should be ready to go in game.

OMG

This is great! Perfect voice acting.

[Durandal]

Yes

[Dude388]

Wow I really didn't think this idea would be such a hit!

P.S. To AREM117:

Those are some awesome Commo rose audio's, so good i'm adding them to the main post

Renamed thread. Please keep titles descriptive.

Languages? Just wondering... Since now there has been an arabic and chinese equivalent for every english commo-rose sound.

it shouldnt be hard at all to find people who know those languages and are willing to record themselves. this mod has players from all over.

ps: dont forget a british accent version!
