Probus Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 How hard would it be for Battlefront to add the ability to turn on and off different weapons, similar to the 'Target Light' command? So if, for example, I want a BMP to use its autocannon and/or its main cannon and/or its ATGM and/or its MG, I would have the choice of setting each weapon position on or off. The crew could always override me in extreme circumstances. This could be used for several real life functions that are hard to do right now. Like conserving a certain type of ammo or reconnoitering by fire. It seems to me like I've played a game that had this ability but I'm not sure which game it was. Maybe one of the Graviteam Tactics titles? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this game the individual troops and vehicles have some degree of autonomy, you give guidance and they try to carry it out using their own judgement. For instance they will override target arcs and ignore area targets if they are threatened sufficiently. But maybe it could be added. Idk.

Redwolf Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Well, some way should be added to control things when a vehicle has more than 2 weapons. We already got the mechanism for 2, we need it for $n. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chibot Mk IX Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 I hope a "target med" button can be added in future update So to a modern IFV, "target" means ATGM has a higher priority, "target medium" means use the auto cannon or grenade launcher. "target light" only fire coaxial mg. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zmoney Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Yes this topic has been brought up before and is one I feel can really make the game better. I have noticed with infantry and IFV’s that if you let tac ai target a spotting enemy they will only use basic weapons. If you target directly, either timed target or regular target assignment then they will fired shoulder fired munitions and ATGM’s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
