Recommended Posts

So Those that read the news feed on the launcher may have seen this, but in addition to sensor changes there is another noteworthy change with the upcoming jets DLC

DYNAMIC LOADOUTS

Quote

Some of the new engine features that are being developed in anticipation of the upcoming Jets DLC are starting to surface on Dev-Branch. One of these is Dynamic Loadouts, which allows for in-game customization of a vehicle's armament, which changes the way that airplanes operate in different situations. The ability to select the loadout for each pylon was requested by our community for a long time, and we're glad to finally be able to implement this alongside Jets' new premium assets. You can find the Work-In-Progress documentation on the Community Wiki, and please let us know your feedback on the forums.

As you read it, your probably thinking the same thing i am, GOODBYE YOU USELESS ATGMS, AND HELLO MOAR BOMBS AND ROCKETS

HELLO CAP NEOPHRON

    Looks good!

    Also means we can add some more useful/exciting Side Mission rewards.

    manage weapons on vehicles (mainly helicopters and airplanes) in a similar way to how it works in real world

    RIP ground vehicles, because it totally isn't possible to remove the turret from a gorgon and swap it with something else.... (A hallmark feature of the Pandur II, the vehicle the gorgon is based off, is it's modular weapon system)

    I just feel like ground vehicles always get the short end of the stick when it comes to vehicle upgrades QQ

    I really hope they address a lot of these issues in the Tanks DLC, instead of adding three new tanks built to the same pathetic standard the current ones are.

    Another Jets DLC feature is the ability to designate for your own bombs with the targeting pod. Will we be keeping this, or will we be staying with JTACS to designate targets? I think the current system requires much more teamwork. What do you think? Another feature is the ability to feed radar information from one thing to another, so a drone can feed radar information to a jet. That would be good, you can send a drone on ahead to an AO and then get the radar information fed back to allies to plan a bombing run. Very exciting.

    We'll be taking that out and keeping it the way it is now. The option to add a laser designator to the jet has been there for a while but it's too OP.
