Friday 2009-11-20 Screenshots Update discussion thread

[whatnot]

A few noob questions which I aim not to raise as intensive discussions of wether they are needed or not as the pilot model discussion did. These are probably already answered in some of the threads and by searching I found a quite a few threads but no real conclusion:

1) Clickable cockpit

First check this out:

I have always liked the idea of a clickable cockpit and after seeing the video I started drooling of my own powerglove.

2) Infantry in the battlefield

I would love the possibility of strafing infantry masses in the battlefield but have seen comments that it's a flight sim not FPS etc. But as strafing infantry was as far as I've understood a normal action in WW2 I want to ask.

So could some of you vets summarize the discussion and dev's conclusion on these topics. And if these are sore wounds already debated billion times I want to appologize in advance. I by no means want to create a big fuzz and start useless debate if the topic is already covered.

Also links to appropriate threads would be quite sufficient.

Great video! I wasn't a fan of clickable cockpits because I thought it'd be too cumbersome to click with a mouse but with something like this ... WOW! I'm convinced. I'd wait for a third party to implement clickable cockpits though.

Good thing it doesn't have the pilot in it... god knows what else that guy would think to do with that devilish hand...


Teh future is bright though!
