He guys

 

Will the tanker be available in multiplayer?

I know JTAC is not part of the MP like in SP, but hopefully the tanker is.

 

If this question has been answered before please let me know. Could not find it..

There's been multiplayer tanker missions already, but I'm not entirely sure if it worked for everyone. It's certainly still a WIP, but this is one of the quintessential multiplayer type activities so hopefully it'll be 100% compatible with MP.

 

 

Yep let's hope it does... We have tried several mp missions with the tanker now, but only the host is able to contact him. No one can actually see the (except the host) tanker in the comm list. If this is still WIP fine :thumbup: But I'm not sure it is....

 

Thanks!

All things MP are WIP, as far as i can tell.

Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two.

It would be awsome to be tuning into the tanker with your 2 mates, alligning with the tanker, tank in formation and continue the mission. That would be awsome!!

 

That would be awsome indeed :pilotfly:

Just remember that my insight into development is very limited. I know that MP has work to be done, during which course this might (or unfortunately might not) get fixed (i really don't know which). That is everything you should take from my statement and not more.

I understand that, thx... Maybe someone else from ED can confirm this?

Will the tanker be available in MP for multiple players?

I know ;) But I'm just stating how awsome it would be ;)

 

I was just trying to be clear on how to take my statement, so other people wouldn't jump in and get all overexcited about that feature being fixed. :)

 

And it would indeed be awesome :D Just gotta learn keeping stabilized with that damn thing :joystick:

ED must have a MP feature list fixed by now or is that TOP SECRET in case they have to leave something out too?

 

I can't imagine it would be that hard to make Tanking MP'er compatible. :music_whistling:

Yep, for me (and others) it was already a disappointment that they left JTAC out of MP. But it would be a big disappointment when they leave the tanker out of MP too. Lets be positive, I don't think they will (hopefully) :smilewink:

Would make the game a lot more realistic in terms of long haul missions.

Too early to say or worry, I know, but no MP tanker is going to be a problem IMHO.

Oh no, they left the JTAC out !!

 

One of the best and most widely publicised features is being left out of a Sim that is played in great numbers in MP by the community. Shame on you ED.

He's not saying JTAC will never be included in MP. Just that it isn't in there yet. Remember this is a beta, so not all the features have been implemented yet.

 

We all hope it will be! :thumbup:

Not quite how I read his post to be honest, but I hope you're right.

 

Website lists JTAC as a feature but funnily enough doesn't even mention multiplayer (not that I could see anyway) as a feature at all.

Well I'm afraid it is....

 

JTAC is the feature for SP only

Yeah, this is a real shame, you can check out the whole thread here:

I can only hope that a patch or mod will come out in the future to address this, as it would be sacrilegious not to combine the two most fun parts of the game (MP and JTAC ops).

That's why you have a Player as a dedicated AFAC, either in the A10-C, alternatively the Ka-50. Infinitely more 'real' in a MP environment than the A.I. implementation in SP ;)

Thats a valid point, but gettin' in contact with the troops on the ground would be great in MP too. :music_whistling:

In a perfect world, yes that would be the ultimate. Unfortunately I feel for those not in an online squadron, finding someone willing and able to competently fill this role will be somewhat difficult. Not to mention it appears there will be no datalink or laser designation capabilities for the JTAC/BF commander.
