Interesting concept. Could also be helpful in later tiers too when some of the weapon suites and radar systems is operated by the other crew member. Particularly in RB but especially in SB.
Also means that the pilot has less tasks to do.

they should make it a requirement for sim and something you can do with your low tier buddy
It shouldn’t be mandatory for sim. Just an option for those who want to play coop.
What about having twin seat vehicles have a more useful AI instead of just “a co-pilot if your pilot dies”?

In my opinion this will be an amazing addon for air simulator battles and it can make 2 seater aircrafts more unique and fun, but for other gamemodes I dont see it helping, But as I said I think this will be a great mechanic to air simulator battles.

It will be very hard to balance and model it in other gamemodes without making the gamemode unplayable for standalone players, Sim is the only way it can work and work really good
Yeah but should not be mandatory.
Of course
wow this thread’s aged like wine. now that they have a multitargeting system that’s almost too much for a single player having a WSO would be really helpful

Imagine BF-110 g-4 or P-61C in Simulator.
One flies the plane and the other has acess to the radar screen.
Would be fun to put your friend on the baby cage (Firefly observer seat)

I think it would be for dead squadmates (or any teammate if you turn that on) so while it wouldn’t be a kill to disable the gunners nor would the gunners themselves get the kill, the gunners and enemy planes would get partial kills for killing each other while the bomber pilot would collect kills like they do off the ai now and the enemy would still have to destroy the bomber or kill all pilots to get the kill credit.
Something close to this was already passed to the devs :)

that is AI voices this is Co-op would be funny seeing YouTubers like Bo Time Gaming squad freaking out going fire the missile!!! Team work only works if the team works.

Nostalgia hit me
The way this could work is that one player would join a game, chose the vehicle and get all the rewards and the other player would just join for the fun.
This idea would not be a bad idea and could be further expanded upon; however i believe it is a feature that would take time to implement. However, it is a good homage to Gaijin’s beginnings when they made an IL-2 game.
It would be greatly useful for vehicles with more than 1 pilot, such as bombers. Since you could have a full squadron of players flying a B-17, for example. Does it make sense? Yes, but should it? yes. Cause it’s silly.

Could also work for Tanks and Naval. 90% of the time your gonna get a pile of bad uncoordinated players screaming at each other over discord then you get the 10% who are really well oiled. Could also be fun for Gaijins league events. I will see if there is one suggested for Tanks but I did make a image a while back of the ground concept. The Youtubers will get a kick out of it for a month would sort of be a party mode would also allow people to bring lower BR players to top tier without the usual stuff happening.
