Feedback and Suggestions / Non-Captain Pilots

« on: March 31, 2017, 09:16:42 pm »

While I understand the system of not letting anyone but the captain be pilot is in place to prevent multi pilot trolls, it hinders teams where the captain is not skilled as a pilot or does not wish to be pilot. It also kinda sucks since I bought items fro my ship and would like to use my ship but cannot since I don't play pilot and therefore need someone else to be captain if I want a pilot.  I can see it not being implemented in random matchmaking, but it should be implemented in the custom crews section or at the very least allow the captain to choose which ship they use. For instance if my friend is captain he can use the loadouts and cosmetic items I have on my ship. Although I believe the first idea of allowing non-captain pilots in crew creation.

Maybe not just items but whole ships might be easier like have a drop down menu where the ships name is and have all the crews ships there, but that still leaves the issue that if i let my pilot captain he had no way of communicating

Okay i can see everyones points, but what about a system where if while you were setting up your crew in the main menue like before you even start the match making process it would be possible to have pilot crew b/c at that point, if im not mistaken, randoms cant join, but once you enter a lobby you cant switch to a crew pilot and you cant join a game in progress as a crew pilot. Personally i think that would be a solution that benifits everyone it combats the same problems that the current system does yet allows for crews to be set up how a premade team opperates.

What do you mean by second pilot trolling and limiting the gunner like would be horible limits like these just suck the fun out of a game like this. I do communicate with my fellow captains, you dont need to be at the helm to do that. The set up i use works well for my crew and if i already have a crew member who is a good pilot and i spent money on my ship why retrain half my crew or not get to use my ship. The problem with having my pilot friend captain is he has no way of communicating we can only talk through skype and he has to use his phone for that, he has no pc mic or money to buy one.

I hope that it will be possible in the future for the someone who is not the captain to be the pilot. In the crew I play with we have someone who is extremely good as the pilot but cannot play pilot because I am usually the captain and play engineer. Normally I would not mind making him the captain, but since I've spent money on customizing my ship I want to use it and the only way to do that is to be captain. What I am getting at is that I think that it should be possible for me to stay as the captain and play engineer while someone who is not captain can play pilot.
