From around 1994. That hasnt been bought by anyone as an actual in-service vehicle. So why do we need it/them? Without drama and given that Esim have only a limited number of ressources in general, then I would submit that there are many actual in-service vehicles we need far more.

Nike-Ajax Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 An obvious one, that probably already is in the making: The Leopard 2A7V, which have already begun deploying to at least the armies of Denmark and Germany, and probably more. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azure Lion Posted May 28, 2018 Author Share Posted May 28, 2018 That is awesome, what a great concept! Each round fired comes from all those countries with love, plus the first round hit comes with a bird's nest to boot! Does the V stand for Vorpal? I love vorpal weapons, automatic decapitations. I wonder if it does +5 damage to ogres too. (Sorry, was too amused by the bird this morning when I researched the Leo 2A7V) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont need in-service vehicles. Adding playable crew positions to older epuiptment would be of much greater 'value' to me.

Wardog Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 (edited) I know it's been mentioned before, got to keep it in the light away from the shadows, probably the best IFV / Scout the Ajax, would be awesome six variants: AJAX, ARES, APOLLO, ATHENA, ATLAS and ARGUS. Each AJAX variant will be an agile, tracked, medium-weight armoured fighting vehicle coming soon to an army near you.

Gunslinger668 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 One idea I would like to see is an upgrade for the Leopard 2A6 and 2A5 thermals to the Attica system. I don't know about other countries, but the Royal Canadian Armoured Corps is currently fitting all 2A4M CAN and 2A6 CAN with the Attica sight. If not possible, the TIM sight for the Commander of the A6 and A5 looked extremely similar, so applying the same picture would be sufficant. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingtiger Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 One thing that would make me very happy with infantry... When two enemy squads are firing at eachother in the terrain they lie down (of course, we all want to live) but that often means they break LOS due to terrain. so out of maybe 8 persons 2 are actually shooting at eachother with single rounds. the other ones just lay there taking a coffee break. I wish there was a LOS check so if they can't fire when lying down they kneel and try to shoot from there. And of course if the suppresion bar goes high enough so they are suppressed they will go down and take cover again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would go along ways fro the 2a5 and 2a6 without having to introduce an entirely different Leopard Mark Edited June 23, 2018 by Kev2go 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would go along ways fro the 2a5 and 2a6 without having to introduce an entirely different Leopard Mark Thanks for the bump, I'm hoping it can be done. Quickest fix is giving the gunner sight the same view as the TC. I have heard rumors that some countries have also updated their magnification values with the Attica system as well but I can't confirm that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bond_Villian Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 I wish that giving an 'engage' or 'assault' route would set fire control to 'fire at will' , just as giving a 'scout' route does the opposite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mirzayev Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 So, another wish to throw into the cauldron: Operational Graphics added within a scenario are saved to the AAR to be accessed at a later date. If you close and reopen a saved AAR at a later date, all the OPS Graphics disappears. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tells the TC that you have located a target and that you are going to engage it. Essentially it tells the AI TC to leave you alone while you engage and forbids the AI from overriding you to another target.

Botas Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 (edited) Some ideas (i haven't read through 237 pages sorry) Radio reports all look and sound the same and it's hard to distinguish which are most relevant to the player. So maybe a different colour specifically for your platoon. Having a voice for the TC commands like 'Fire at will' or 'Hold fire' etc. It would be tactically helpful to get status reports from your platoon or individual wingmen. And it would also be useful if they could tell you when they had finished reloading (I think at the moment the only way to know is watch whether their turret has resumed scanning) And I don't know if it's possible but it would be great if the mouse cursor in the gun-sight could get progressively more transparent the closer to the centre it gets. It has a tendency to obscure the target when you're trying to aim. Also - Stabilise the TC's 'eye' and 'binocular' view - at it's currently modelled if the tank pitches up or down the TCs' view pitches up and down with it - this is unrealistic. In real life we don't consciously need to keep adjusting our head up, down, left and right just to maintain our desired view....it happens automatically. Even on a roller-coaster our eyes and head easily and invisibly compensate for the movement and it's no problem to remain focused on something far away. In Steel Beasts' eye & binocular views we must constantly chase the mouse around in order to keep our eyes on something - this is a) unrealistic and b) annoying(!). If my binoculars are trained on a barn 2 kilometres away then they should remain there - and not suddenly point upwards just because my tank has driven onto a gentle slope. For sure it would be even better if vibrations, uneven ground, collisions, impacts and inertia could be transmitted to the eye & binocular views to add some dynamism but the main thing is to get them stabilised. Night-time switch - a switch, perhaps automatic, that dims the map display, radio communications bar, right-click menus etc for use during night time scenarios.
