Adding an extra seat to all one seater ships

[Lawlazyboy]

I know this might seem a bit controversial but what if we added an extra seat to one seater ships currently except for SLF?

Multi player function isn't everyone's cup of tea but due to the huge scale of even an sidewinder, there should be plenty of space to fit a co-pilot seat?

 

[Magic Man]

Ummm, no. A single seater is a single seater.

 

[Peter Thompson]

Maybe. But I guess this is a case of gameplay over realism.

 

[IndigoWyrd]

How about..

I just wanted to say "no", but that's not enough enough. It's not just about having somewhere for a hologram to sit - why do holograms even need to sit?
It's about having the ship's resources to connect into to perform remote functions - like turret operations, or fighter operations, or.. whatever other operations might be controlled by a remote operator.

Smaller ships just don't have the same capacity to support these additional interfaces.

Putting a man in the back of canoe with an M-16 does not make it a Gunship.

but it does give you an extra man with an m16...



sidewinder definitely does not have the room for a second seat, but the eagle has room(just check the new camera). eagle is much bigger than modern jet fighters and they normally have 2 crew members.

Have to agree.
I get it's a game but does it have to keep getting more "gamey" with every new..err..."feature?"

 

[Ozric]

No thanks.

 

[Deadspin]

I dunno.. scale-wise the Courier has room for a WO seat.

 

[maxpayne]

forget it. Even with an extra seat...multi-crew gunner role is not that fun after few hour

 

[aardappelianen]

Elite definitely needs more variants in ships for whatever niche purposes
If russians today can put a kitchen and a toilet in fighter jet Adding an extra seat should be easy for future technicians

 

[WR3ND]

Have to agree.

There's a difference between compelling game-play and gamey game-play. Gamey game-play can be good sometimes in some games, but much less often in a game like this.

 

[Tucker Dale]

Some of these should easily fit in every ship!

 

[IndigoWyrd]

We can make them fit:
