Suggestion for live play - AI wingmen

[Ken5421]

Ok so I have a suggestion.

 

I love playing sturmovik. There are however a couple of key things missing from the game.

 

1. Communication. We need to be able to communicate more with each other. Typing is a pain. I think developers need to come up with an in house radio system so we can talk to each other.

 

2. Wingmen were critical. You were expected to do your job and look out for your partner. But this is non existent in live game play. People just don't help each other. I suspect this is because of the lack of communication. One idea is AI wingmen. so a non player AI aircraft flying with you. I think this would go someway to creating the team work that was required of fighter pilots.

 

If above not possible then maybe developers can find a way to introduce people when they are on the ground. So the plane spawns. As I'm preparing the aircraft for start up I can see other planes spawning next to me. If we could see names of players so we could at least message to say - Hi Ken - can we team up.

 

Sturmovik is a fantastic game. I love playing it. I think above points are relevant and I would be interested to hear what people think.

 

Cheers Ken5421

Ken,

 

No need for AI bots- always SP for that. Communication is available right there on the official TeamSpeak server, bud. More and more folk on there these days. Jump on.

Flying with wingman is a routine for my group. Maybe you should fly in a squadron that promotes more immersive flying. Check our group out if you are interested.

Ok will check it out. I thought you had to pay a subscription fee to access team speak

No, it's free to join an existing Teamspeak server. You only pay if you host a server with more than 32 slots for people and you do not have a "non-profit licence".
