I just got killed by a bf 109 behind me that i couldn’t spot until it was within 0.5km and already firing, why is this still a problem?
That is intentional, you cannot see vehicles behind you so they do not show up as markers on the map or indicators on screen edges.
You can read more here on crew skill and detection ranges.
Waist gunner and rear gunners be like: 🧑🦯
(I mean bombers)
Interesting point :)
perhaps worth making a suggestion for?
Meaning that there would be both keen vision and awareness to level up for gunners as well so that those types of planes have increased detection ranges in those directions the gunner is facing :)
I guess,
In my opinion, and considering the last time I played bombers, I had some issues with my waist gunner to engage enemy aircraft, most of the time I had to take control,
From what I could see, Aced gunners can be pretty dangerous, but it seems the community is indifferent and doesn’t consider it as over performing.
Although there’s gunner skills for awareness and keep vision, they only start to be effective in high crew training level.
currently there isn’t those skills in gunners.
so adding them would make the detection range in front of the gunner (eg. behind plane for a tail gunner) jump immediately from 0.5km (pilot awareness) to 3.8km (base keen vision detection range).
