Re: Additional pilot classes for space maps

Well, the DS Radar effect would certainly help with the enemy fighters. Besides, being able to tell which turrets are active would be a nice advantage...

Re: Additional pilot classes for space maps

As far as I know, at least some of the turrets would be automated. I remember asking a lo-o-o-ong time ago, though things can easily have changed since then.

Canadiens, Ty, I don't dislike the idea at all. As a matter of fact I like it very much. All I'm saying is that if some better alternative to repairs was found, that'd be really nice in my eyes. If the devs end up giving squadron leaders the ability to repair friendlies, so it is. No problem here.

Re: Additional pilot classes for space maps

Yeah, I am trying to think of some other stuff.  The problem will always be the code.

Other neat stuff would be the ability for a Squadron Leader to have shielding simulating extra armour, a visual indicator for friendly and enemy craft that he's a squadron leader, the ability to set waypoints, etc.

Though, most of the neat stuff depends on a squad leader being outside a vehicle a la the ground map unlocks.

Well, a gameplay reason could be that since the force is in all living things, that when a team leader is able to focus his team into a single objective, that collective force power can influence machines to enhance repair time or perhaps increase damage done by team weapon systems.

That sounds pretty far fetched, I doubt many people would buy into that.
