II. Aircraft - Helicopters

1. (Minor Feedback) Weapon
Status: New Addition

The AH-64 Apache's 30mm automatic cannon does not instantly fire.

It appears that the AH-64 Apache has an irregular warm up time causing a slight pause before firing. To the best of my knowledge, the Apache fires an automatic cannon and not a gatling style weapon like the AH-1 Cobra. Thus, there should theoretically be no delay before the weapon begins firing.

Fixed for next version. Only the Cobra and the Z-10 will have a warm up (Havoc and Apache won't).

Unfortunately we can't implement sounds for the jet flaps.

Expect updates on the fixing of bugs mentioned in the first post as they are made....

You're my hero Warren. Great post.

I don't see the need for an ironsight weapon version for the Squad Leaders, they have the pistol...
Otherwise awesome post, no mention of anything for marksmen though... hmm... XD

Wow. All I can say is "Yes!"

I agree with another poster who said not to worry about the harrier. In fact, I think over worrying about jets in general isn't a good idea since jets are rarely used in multiplayer. Of course jets should be addressed, I just don't think they should be a priority. Infantry and vehicular combat should be a higher priority than jets unless the developers decide to include more of them.

I also think players who take a jet should be forced to keep their pilot kit for 15-20 minutes even if the jet is destroyed. It would be punishment for unqualified noobs jet-stealing in the beginning of the round (maybe same for helis?)

I love the "squad member reserves the vehicle" suggestion!

8. (Minor Feedback) Sound
Status: Unresolved issue that still exists from a previous build.

The GR4 Tornado needs to have the Co-Pilot rear seat ambient sounds changed. Currently the ambient communications are heard in the German language. Replace the Co-pilot ambient radio chatter sounds with the cockpit sounds used in the primary Pilot seat to coincide more with it's country of origin (British).

Done/fixed.
