I'm curious as to what extent that Electronic Warfare will be in the game. Will I be able to use certain jamming techniques to make a radar guider missile blow up early, or perhaps put false targets on an enemy's HUD?asked by FuriousGeorge
Yes we're definitely having Electronic warfare in the game, we have specific role/designs for it on bigger ships where there will be an electronic warfare officer. Then there will also be ships in the game which are focussed on that, we've got some up and coming variants that'll focus on that as well as some current ones. The hornet tracker for example will have the ability to do some of this, but the idea would be that you could jam radars, hide signatures, mess with other's computer systems etc. We think it'll add another level of fun to combat/the PU.
