New mission types.

Would love to see some new mission types like Recon with the recon camera view and maybe artillery spotting help like in Rise of flight. It would add to the immersion. Also the maps with more revamped co-ordinates would also help in planning missions...like an interactive mission planner.

Lots of new mission types will be introduced gradually over time.

 

I wouldn't be surprised at all if the team is already working on overlays/APIs to reintroduce spotting/recon roles.

Really hope at some point recon missions award points in multiplayer due to the fact that was the primary purpose of 2 seaters in WW1, not bombing.

One thing I loved and miss in ROF is the Recon missions where while we go in the recon phase you enter the camera view and take pictures manually, feels more immersive that instead of simply flying over a point in an assumed recon mission and returning to base.

 

Then there was the artillery spotting missions where you find the artillery and via co-ordinates, you'd supply them to the ground forces. Like I said, felt very immersive.

 

Also landing in any friendly bases would also be good, coz as of now it isn't possible If I had somehow been forced to land due to plane damage or low fuel problems. Currently If I land it shows that I ditched my plane or crash landed, even if I landed good.

Really, I could have sworn I've gotten a 'landed successfully' once, after accidentally landing at a friendly base I transferred away from (I had gotten too used to navigating home and landing at the same base, I forgot we had moved).

Perhaps it has to be an active friendly airbase? Like there has to actually be squadrons operating there. Makes sense, as if you land at a non-operational base its almost as bad as ditching, as you have no fuel, no way to refuel and rearm, and no one to do it for you stationed there.

Would be nice to have Ju-52 with the old mission types..
