If the cockpits are brought up in this thread anymore your post will be deleted.

Do I detect a certain flavor of "being pissed off" between the lines?
They wont comunicate until the game is out, might well be.
What about german cockpit gunner positions? (HE111 nose gondola?) am I allowed to mention these sir?

No you did not detect me being pissed off, I am only stating that there was two threads with concern about german cockpits and this thread is about gunner positions. If they wish to comment on cockpits in more detail than what was said on the Q&A on the demo then they will, Anton has a list of questions from us to ask the publisher and when he gets the green light to answer he does. In a forum thread the thread is there for the topic in question, the topic should not stray.

That is fine because that is a gunner position. Hopefully they will be "real" also.

I'm pretty sure that during the demonstration the other morning that he mentioned that gunners are 3rd person only. Check the video about 1/3 of the way through at the IL-2 mission.

Just watched the video again and I didn't hear him say it was 3rd person only, they only thing he said is that "you can switch to rear gunner view". So we will have to wait.

I'm not so sure abput this either. That's why I suggested it.

Looking back, I found in one of my older threads that someone asked if the weapon's turret was visible and the answer was no.

Scroll to the bottem and someone said that Anton said this feature was not going to be BoP.

If that is true that is a bummer there's nothing like being right behind the gun while you shoot it.

Yes, it is unfortunate. Hopefully they will be able to make this feature possible in a DLC.

Hmm, sorry, I don't know where I got that then? I could swear I remember hearing that somewhere.

It would be fun if you could have more than one person in one aircraft (one piloting others at gun positions) I doubt this is possible on a console game though. We used to do it when I played Warbirds online years ago, it was fun to have 7 guys in a b24 chatting it up on the way to a target.

Anton said it could be possible in a sequel.
