CharlieB Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 In a single player mission or Coop, can an OPFOR CGF UAV call for fires? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 I think so. I just can't recall off hand if an AI UAV/UAS is "blind" or not. Just set it so any units can call for fire. If you have it at "FO units only" or similar then certainly no. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted April 4, 2016 Members Share Posted April 4, 2016 UAVs in Steel Beasts will always need a human operator to do anything. A computer-controlled UAV that would automatically report everything AND call artillery fire on everything it sees ... you don't want that, trust me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlieB Posted April 4, 2016 Author Share Posted April 4, 2016 Ssnake - I suspect you are probably right it would be very trouble some... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Yes but it is very good at developing effective passive air defence drills and camouflage and concealment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted April 5, 2016 Members Share Posted April 5, 2016 But as long as the computer's perception model doesn't adequately mimic a human operator's eye, AND as long as don't have proper camouflage elements to simulate concealment ... Well, our answer is that it's better to put an actual human being behind the camera with all the limitations that he may have (detecting and identifying valid targets, then calling effective fire on those positions). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
