Please please please, a B17 or any bomber where all my friends list can pile in and man different gun emplacements and go at it like the Horde mode in Gears of War.

imagine going on a bombing mission, you have pilot, co pilot, and several gunners all from their correct perspective going up against wave after wave of German fighters while trying to accomplish your different bombing runs!!! Holy shit.

I think I just got a chubby.

If it does happen it won't be until a sequel.

Anton already said there isn't even going to be a co-op mode.

I hope for the Yak-15 as a DLC if not in the game...

He could take control of the plane if the pilot gets killed.

Ok.. so how often would that happen? so you would probably be stuck there navigating untill someone gets a lucky shot... Maby if he was the co-pilot AND the bomb aimer.

That could work. But in WW2 many people died in B-17s and most of the people that died were pilots since the Me-109s would come head on.

I accept that but unless there is a load of Ps3/xbox playing veterans out there i dont think this will happen nearly as much as it would have done! I think that you would be better off having a fighter escort than a full crew B-17. Anyway thats my two pence.
