Another pilot survival suggestion!

[-.-Maverick-.-]

The ROE stuff sounds very nice to my ears. IMO it should be something like when a chopper crashes of course you lose 10 tickets or w/e I cant remember how many exactly. But! If the pilot comes to the main base safely you get 5 tickets back, to kind'a redeem yourself. If the pilot gets killed no penalties are done to the killing team, but if the pilot is captured I.E. punched in the face, it counts as additional tickets to the "punching" team, to represent the knowledge gained by questioning and so on.

This would really add some interesting scenarios, I can only imagine my clanmate getting shotdown and hidding in the bush somewhere while my squad makes my way to him, gives him a weapon and escorts him back to main. Thoughts?

I dont understand why not just give him a 9mm... It would be very hard to do air drops and it is realistic.

@USMCMIDN pilots sometimes team kill each other for a vehicle stops that and people would parachute, use their pistol to kill one person take that kit then away they go.

It's been said before, but I'll say it again:


REMOVE THE DAMN PARACHUTE


Right now we have left click for scoped weapons, right click for ironsight.

Make the pilot kit left click for helicopter, right click for jets.
Then you can remove the parachute from the helicopter pilot kit, and add a sidearm instead.

Threads done, its just evolving into "I got shot down, pilots need guns so I can continue to play". If you get shot down we (PR Dev's) want your only option to be: Get back to base without getting caught, or suiciding and taking the punishment. Non of this...what if we get attacked or shot at and cant fight back, what if we are injured, it doesn't matter. Thats the disadvantage or as I like to call it "noob guard" of being a pilot. You being a pilot have no combat effectiveness unless your piloting a vehicle.

Like it or not we've seen the lack of any weapons being a positive gameplay aspect. People roleplaying being the best part of this.
