Just watched a youtube vid of the GPS bomb, was just wondering why the system wasn't used in 0.7 to target the JDAM?

I love 0.7 so no slagging off here.

Just seemed odd that you fellows had built up alll the teamwork but left the jdam as a point and click weapon. would be awesome to have to have a jet in the air to fly over + drop jdam on target.

Could mean shorter respawn times for jdams (or not) and a more effective anti air defence that could prevent JDAM strikes.
Imo having a jdam need to drop from a plane (I'm seeing a lil list of tweaks like this popping up for a patch....) would mean far more effectiveness for teams working together to give air cover and such. When the other side let their air defence down they never know... BOOOOM!!!!

:P but yea like I said right now its just point and click, true you need two clicks but still....

well that is how i felt it should have been implemented in .7 cus you still have a chance of stopping it and cus attack markers are only for each squad if you put a attack marker down for a jdam then the commander would have to transfer that attack marker to another squad with the plane for the pilot to be able to drop the bomb.
