Drone terminal for classes, side missions rough ideas and landmines

[Foxtrot39]

Reposting in the right place

 

Gameplay (non mission)

 

More frequent cluster mine or minefield : it could help making explosive specialist (and especialy the mine detector) actually revelent

 

Opening UAV terminals (while keeping Greyhawk locked to the CAS drone slot) to other classes

 

-Spotter > darter

 

-Engineer > ED-1 (both versions, though only the military one is worth taking)

 

-Medic > AL-6 medical (express first aid kit delivery)

 

-Explosive specialist > AL-6 (or 2?) demining (if thats a dedicated drone or just a DLC specefic modificationof it)

 

Missions

 

Convoy Escort (side mission): protect HEMTT trucks from rebells (IED/mines on roads & ambushes) to its destination

 

Help out a stuck BLUFOR vehicle :  get to it without blowing yourself up, then clear a path for the vehicle in the minefield/UXO from cluster bomb and drive/escort it to designated area

 

Evacuate civilians : inside AO in large cities, evacuate civilians that didn't got out in time (escort to designated location)

 

Capture : inside AO or as side, capture & escort an officer or commander ; can be a optional mission from the HQ side mission giving more credit when I&A4 is out

 

Medivac (side mission) : a downed helo has to be retrieved, pilot secured, helo destroyed with explosives and the pilot escorted to safety, wounded pilot can be a member of vortex if he volunteers

 

Naval support (priority) : an enemy ship has been spoted at the coast, board/destroy it before it start hitting allies in the AO with its cruise missiles (could also work as factory producing CAS aircraft id its a carrier)

 

 

That's just some rough ideas I've got

We are implementing some of the ideas above that are plausible to implement. However this isn't the most high priority in the queue of bug fixes and tweaks, so it will be coming in the the next versions

[Xwatt]

we're looking into this - will get back to you soon!

The Minefield is a good idea but i wouldnt recommend the UAV for multible roles even if you restrict the Greyhawk and the UCAV to the uav op only people will start trolling with drones and it will be complicatet finding those people when multible are online at that moment

Or only fix it... this would make the repair specialist more relevent
