    When i get my Flightstick (already ordered - still waiting) i will have a look into flying helo's in Squad. Helo's already integrated? Not upto date to this.

    Which one did you get? The prices for flight sim equipment are massively inflated right now.

    Proper CAS

    Oh thats a great topic! Originally they included rotary and fixed wing assets (CAS and CAP) in their Kickstarter roadmap (how I love that term...), as seen here: https://imgur.com/a/HO1DZ and here https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/offworldindustries/squad/posts/1272444.

    A little down the line OWI (the devs) scrapped plans for fixed wing aircraft due to concerns of 'muh realism' since maps are way to small to offer a beliveable experience with fast moving jets (I am paraphrasing here).

    Since the game officially ended their early access phase and went 1.0 we can just hope that they will add CAS helis in as a free content patch, rather than a payed expansion. I don't want to sound entitled and do not request them to work on the implementation but interest in the game is pretty low for me at this state because the best aspects of PR - combined arms teamwork - is something Squad just can't do well.

    I love the gunplay, the graphics and the sound engineering they worked on quite hard, but yet I am still drawn back to PR because in the end - for me - gameplay > graphics.

    TLDR: The moment I can laze a Bradley on Yerkovia and a player controlled SU25 launches a laser guided missile on it I will be happy. :)

    One thing I was wondering about related to CAS was is there a way for the commander or SL on the ground to mark targets that CAS can view while we're flying?

    The shift and left click 3D marker is only visible by yourself. But anyone can place a marker on the map or draw a arrow f.e. You could then place your own 3D marker on the map. Bear in mind that the 3D marker is on by default but may be disabled my the mission creator.

     

    For situational awareness you can open your sensor page. If someone is lazing there will be a red lazer marker there.

  4. To clarify, he means the orange cross that appears for two seconds on the map when a SL or spotter lazes a target or spot and hits "Need MISSILE/BOMB/CANNON" on the Q commo rose.

    In COOP it appears only for 1-2 seconds. It is very helpful because most spotter either just click the button or yell "tank lazed" but never include the (rough) location.

    I would like to have it stay longer as well. Maybe 10 seconds to give pilots time to see the icon on the map.

    @=VG= TEDF How long is it in on deployment?

    Asked Melon about it and apparently  The longer server has been up the longer it takes to switch maps. If it becomes too long, then I guess just restart the server

    Lol this game keeps on giving. This can only happen in PR. :lol:

    Thanks for the clarification. I'll just bind the "Deafen Self" Button in Mumble again and alt-tab.
