Airstrike Coordinates

Sealights · Post by **Sealights** » 2007-01-22 11:34

SL can only use binos or Painting device for airstrike.

1 SL sends coordinates to Comander. (like Artillery Strikes) ''Requesting Airstrike to this location!''
2 Comander confirms target and sends new objective to a plane Squadron.
3 Plane Squadron gets a target (BOMB ICON)on the minimap ''Bomb this target!''
4 Attack run!

It will be nice to see this happen, since pilots never have missions or objectives to attack. they always play alone in the sky searching for some kills like hungry birds.

or make it automatic so we dont have to rely on player pilots, would also mean we possibly have a proper use for laser desinators ie

paints target for a few secs, bomb accuartly hits target. rather bieng at the mercy of who evers flying at the time

Well... We have already automatic artillery strikes. I want to focus on teamwork between Squads>comander>pilots

I think we should have more organized pilots by giving them some objectives to hit.

in the smae way that medic's should be reviving and healing team mates?

it happens sometimes but most of the time squad mates are terribly unrealiable
its fine if your in a good squad/clan/torney but for the most part its a terribly hope and pray situation

organised players could try to atmept now by trowing pilots in a squad with a sl or commander on the ground relaying "attack here commands"

I know there should be a fixed pilot Squad slot to operate its own plane or tank. Yesterday I was operating my tank and some noob started driving it

but that's another topic.
