No coop in this game?

[6BL Bird-Dog]

The way the new Dogfight Muliplay works is realy good in the game now , however what is needed for coops is the GUI for the players to host ,join ,recieve briefings,arm and launch in a quick and easy to understand way & to recieve the outcome/scores etc when the server ends the mission.In the old 1946 Coop gui the developers had made a pretty good job of it.
Not only does it`s user friendlyness speed up game play but also keeps the flow of missions running so the host can keep a group of players taking part mission after mission as happens in hyperlobby at present.
I have took part in Coops run in Dogfight servers and they have been fun but to get everybody organised and up & flying the old Coop mode cannot be beat
I have no doubt that the new features in the FMB itself will lead to far more inventive Coops for online multiplayer use.
The new script by 41sqn Banks is a creative work around ,(many thanks).

Yes, Banks. You may believe me when I say that majority of VEF/IOW/BW/IL2War/AirfirceWar pilots dreamed of the similar things back in say 2006. So far the only thing that seems to be certain is that we might finally have manned ground units on a massive France-England map. It is hard to believe the things you wrote coming true when a seemingly simple coop system has a hard time being recreated in the next game.

But what Robtek said is very true. Online wars weren`t there from the start. Bellum War I think was official first in what?2004?And that was just the start, with VEF taking place also. Those wars were nothing like VEF2/IOW/AirforceWar which were evolutions of the first of their type.

That is why I think we should be pressing 1C on the issue generally, though just reminding them something they JUST MIGHT have forgotten.Hence still at least a few reasons to stay optimistic.

the guys around Murdock ( VEF) and Adi_Galland (IOW)were faster than remembered, heres some talk about these onlinewars from 2002

yes, they were made by the community, they improved a lot during their running times (i can remenber the crude reportsystem in the first IOW where you had to stay in game till debriefing screen to give your results to the host manually via chat ).
Future will tell what will happen to this series...
