You realize that's already in DCS, right? Back to SB 4.0 Do the snipers have first person functionality? If not, can they aim better than the poor riflemen? Will infantry units have anything other than line formation? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rotareneg Posted May 17, 2016 Author Share Posted May 17, 2016 Yes, I assume it's the inverse of the "surrender if" function. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain_Colossus Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I remember starting a topic about a Surrender If condition, I don't remember writing any of this, though. Parkinson's setting in. Nice addition, the new content is great, and fine tuning things like this is sweeter still. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted May 17, 2016 Members Share Posted May 17, 2016 Yeah, the surrender function. They'll stop fighting, and you can guide them around. That's about it. Still, it's an option to obviate the need to kill the enemy to the last man, which is probably a good thing. Training level, it determines how good of a shot the infantry is, and also their base chances of rendering first aid within the same squad. There'll also be a platoon command team of four people where the platoon leader can send a medic to any squad, with a much higher chance to "resurrect" a fallen soldier (technically, it's closer to necromancy than to medical assistance). Also, higher-level infantry gets a stamina bonus. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apocalypse 31 Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 (edited) SB 4.0: Combat Mission Edition. Hopefully infantry will get first person functionality and formations in 5.0, it sounds like everything else got some much needed love, though.

Gibsonm Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 (edited) Don't abandon hope yet. The tempo of announcements tends to ramp up as release date approaches and usually what is announced about this far out is seen as "small stuff" in retrospect.

Gibsonm Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Hoping Andrea's / PzBtl 911's "hit sound effect" becomes the default. Gives you the "just right" effect of standing inside a bell while someone bashes the outside with a sizeable hammer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
