Sure wish we could have two client players in the Huey. At least a client pilot and a client door gunner with the ability to switch from left to right door guns on the fly.

 

Cuuld it be dev is waiting for the merge or have they just lost sight of this feature?

since you(an me too) allready bought the UH-01 and Updates dont bring in new money you can guess how high on the Priority list that feature is compared to releasing new Aircraqft (which bring in fresh money)

'controlling' the Ka50 feels like a discussion with the Autopilot and trim system about the flight direction.

Thanks for the answer guys - I bought 3 copies anyways for the on sale price to do multiplayer crew with my regular squad. Guess i'll wait

 

i also have multiple copies.

im waiting to built physical controllers on pintles to have doorgunner players to operate the doorguns in VR.

I really like Belsimtek's modules. They do a great job! But with that said its hard to get excited about the new Mi-24 and F-4 without any feedback on multicrew for UH-1 and Mi-8. I think a lot of people are in the same boat. Could we at least get a statement from Belsimtek about multicrew in UH-1 and Mi-8?

Yeah I would love it too. Thats the reason i buy a helo and how a Transport helo works. Imagine all the great multiplayer Jobs. Also why is there no KA52 with 2 Seats, that would improve the workload Balance and abilities a lot. Also more multiplayer fun to fly and work as a Team and not everbody alone in his Jet / helo.

One of the big reason i bought both the Huey and Mi8 was the lure multicrew. While i will most likely pick up any new choppers as i want new ones to be created and wish to support the developers there is a limit to how long we can wait too. We can always vote with our wallets and make it a priority :) Im betting quite a few more will buy any multicrew able craft too

I bought both the UH-1H and the Mi-8 MTV for Human Co-op Multiplayer Multicrew

 

Strange, they have time to post on that forum but, not single comment here on the forum they are an ED partner of.

 

They posted this HERE. That Forum Account only has 1 post. What do they consider as new effort of community communication?

 

 

Greetings!

 

This is our new Belsimtek account on ED forums.

 

And as ED forums goes we would like to start from addressing important thing.. bug reports..

 

We are making new effort to communicate more with community and part of that effort was documenting issues that were reported here.

 

We did look into those we found and for some of them we already formed plans for a solution, some of them still need to be researched, and some of them are just questionable..

 

But they all have one thing in common: at the moment we can't promise you fast resolution.. Not until we will be done with our part for F/A-18C. As soon as F/A-18C will go early access we are planning to start fixing most of the reported bugs.

 

Here is the list of reported issues we concluded so far for F-5E (feel free to add to it):

 

"Gun dispersion" https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=181440

 

"External Tanks sequencing Bug" https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=191747

 

"CBU-52 Bomblet Pattern" https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=171543

 

"Altimeter lag" https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=171227

 

"RWR not showing locked radars in Search mode" https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=187487 (Our first priority is to build accurate systems, and we need to base solutions on somewhat hard evidence, we saw last posts in that thread and we still need to research if they are giving us that hard evidence or not, mostly there were assumptions. We are confident that we will come up with solution one way or another regarding this question, solution that will be acceptable by our standards and by users needs)

 

"Dark HUD" https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=193107 (HUD shouldn't be fully transparent, tuning of transparency is what should be researched, could depend on DCS engine lighting..)

 

"Attitude indicator inaccurate after a several maneuvers" https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=185272

 

"Landing lights source missing" https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=193431

 

"All F-5E pylons are currently weightless" https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=190397 (most likely mission editor bug)

 

"LAU-3 firing 2 rockets from each pod in single mode" : https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3146591&po.. (most likely working as intended)

 

"Losing lock in DM or DG does not revert back acquisition phase": https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=186772

 

 

Helicopters issues is there as well but we didn't gather them all in one pile yet, our helicopter specialist is on the sick leave and we hope he will return into action soon. You are welcome to post same kind of list of all issues related to our helicopters modules, and we will merge it with our WIP list :book:.

Regarding multicrew, I would also like to take up a player to not only fire the weapons but also as an observer and act as JTAC (with Combined Arms) with binoculars, etc. Who could mark enemy positions with smoke etc. from the chopper.

I bought both the UH-1H and the Mi-8 MTV for Human Co-op Multiplayer Multicrew

 

Just out of curiosity, why did you buy them for features they don't have? Despite it being 2017, I didn't expect my new motorcycle to hover, even though they said we would have hoverbikes by now in the fifties...

Well, did they say generally that we would have hoverbikes, like "In fifty years we will build bikes that can hover" , or did the advertisement for the new motorcycle you bought say "Hover mode for this bike is under development for a later update" ?

 

For me Multicrew was also a large part of the buying decision, and after something like four and a half years after initial release, and with the Huey being out of beta for a while, it´s about time something happens with Multicrew.

I also bought the Huey with multicrewing in mind, because it was explicitly stated as one of its features in the feature list in the product description!

 

Edit: It still is actually:

 

  • Multiplayer coop mode for crew members of the same helicopter under development for a later update.

I think that is a valid enough reason to make someone expect that it will become available! I don't think your motorcycle was advertised with a hover functionality...

Have to say that one of the reasons I bought a 2nd copy for my son, was such that he could come and fly with me. The plan being that he'd spend several months getting competent in flying himself, then take various positions in my copter.

 

So this is a function that I'd very much like.

It would be a very welcome update.

 

As I read it, there will be a Huey 2.0 released at some point in the future, and I would be most surprised if multiplayer crewing isn't one of the new features packaged with that. The Huey was released before multi-crew was even coded by ED, so it's likely it needs a lot of re-working to achieve it.

 

The developers have said it will be added, but frankly you may have a long wait for it to materialise.

 

I have to say, it'll transform the module. Especially if you could get a human in all the crew positions at the same time!
