make petrovich call out missile launches like jester

[sadfunda]

for the love of god, this feature is really important

this thing alone makes helicopters insanely difficult to play for no reason

you have multiple sets of eyes in the helicopter, in the huey its 4, and you have awareness of a horse wearing blinders

This is coming. Like Jester he will call out threats, but only threats that he can see. Knowing Eagle Dynamics, they will probably want to fix a lot of things before adding to Petrovich, and he needs some voice-lines first. So, some patience is required

i hope, i hope a lot that it is coming

i hope even more that its going to be ported as a feature to other helicopters as well

flying the huey is almost suicidal sometimes and you have to snap your neck around every second to see if youre getting blown up or not

+1, this can be achieved by scripted workaround, don't see why it couldn't be implemented in the base game.

@sadfunda, please check this out, works on some servers and gives you what you need:

That would be an awesome addition! Hopefully it's something we can assign to wingmen on flights as well.

I think it was the Eastern Friendship missions that I first saw the wingman callout anytime a SAM was launched in the mission area, and it was awesome in terms of immersion! You actually felt like you had wingmen there working with you, and it gave you that valuable set of eyes outside the cockpit.

It's going to increase survivability by sygnificant margin.
