FC3 Rearm while engine on

[Ghostkiwo]

Dear devs,

 

Could we please get Rearm and Refuel for FC3 While the canopy is closed and while the engines are running ?

 

It does not make much sense that all the other planes can do it but not the FC3 planes, would be greatly appreciated !

Seconded

I disagree with this.  What you fail to realize is the fact that FC3 planes can be shut down and started with the push of 3 buttons.  There's no alignment of navigation systems or anything else required.  They can be armed and rolling in about 30-45 seconds.  Now granted, Non FC3 planes do have an slight advantage with a hot rearm/refuel, but if it's such an issue, you can very quickly and easily get in a fresh FC3 plane and be rolling just as fast.

and ?  i mean for me it kinda breaks it, if you are mid air and you are out of missiles just taking a new plane is an option but a bad one it breaks the Immersion and its way cooler if you land and reuse the same plane isnt it ? also i dont need to re-aligne on the F-18 if i land i can just rearm and refuel in 20 sec and be up again so you should be able to do the same for FC3 planes besides it has no downsides to it like none i cant think of one downside of this tbh, it would it just make easier for those who like to fly russian planes and not so annoying

Mate, this is a wishlist thread, so wish away.  Just know you're not the first to wish for this.

 

As someone who enjoys flying the MiG-29, Su-25T, Su-27, and knowing the advantages they have over the full fidelity birds, personally I have no issue with having to shut down my engines to rearm and refuel.  The 15-20 seconds it takes for them to spool down is nothing compared to what it takes some birds just to align their nav systems.

I think you fail to realise that alot of servers allow HOT starts and don't require any alignment or startup in F/A-18's, F-16's, M2000's ect ect. In saying this you fail to realise aswell that some FC3 aircraft can only start one engine at a time and with the MiG-29 for example you have to wait even after starting both engines 1 by 1 you need to wait for the damper. I can start and align an F-16 faster than the FC3 Fulcrum... You also forget that rearm and refuel is not always used on a Cold start, after a successful sortie its very frustrating for your wingman to have to wait for you to turn off and spoil down your engines, then refuel and rearm and turn them all back on again, meanwhile hes been rearmed and refueled for a solid 5-6 minutes already because he doesn't need to shut down or even open his cockpit which is a HUGE advantage which really honestly just blows the "45 second startups" out of the water as an advantage. and sure you can say that it would be faster if you just reslot but that is incredibly inefficient especially in a server with alot of people that either already have those slots taken up or would be really annoyed with seeing someone reslot every fucking landing they make. So disagreeing with this just because such few aircraft can start moving only 45 seconds in which I believe is bull<profanity> because it takes about 40 seconds to get all your armament depending on how much you are bringing with you and only after that can you even touch your engine start unlike Full fidelity which can rearm and refuel all while starting from a cold start and have cockpit shut, is just pure ignorance.
