FLIR improvement for helicopter gunner

fenriz9000 · 2009-04-19, 16:27

Hello,
as far as I see there is a small displey, showing to gunner position of their view relative to chopper position. This looks like dot in box, where edges of box is edges of possible gunner view.
I think that it would be useful improvement, sorry for bad english.

I know your English isn't very good, my Russian is none existent never mind bad, but I'm not too sure what your talking about. I'm pretty sure there's something like what you've said in game, so I'm not sure if your suggesting that it should be changed to something else.

There is no way to get FLIR working on the bf2 engine.

And the gunners view direction bar for you see on the pilots hud cannot be used on the gunner seat. So instead we used the compass. In earlier releases we had on the minimap the view direction showing as a sort of triangle but this was removed, making it harder to know in which direction you are facing.

For example: The pilot sees something suspicious at 12 o'clock while you the gunner looks somewhere on the left of right he does not know where 12 o'clock is. So he first needs to go back to the cockpit cam set it to 12 o'clock and then go back into the mode he was in first. This takes time really and its just annoying. And giving barrings doesn't work that well either.
