Caucasus one will start as soon as ED can fix the performance issues in 1.5.7 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

lol No! No one said KA50! :p TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I wouldn't mind gazelle either. Give it to both sides to avoid the red wanting ka50. TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’d be up for trying this! No troops recon mode. A2A version and a A2G version that carries troops. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Love this. Thanks Cribob! TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Are the rearm/repair crates working as intended? Last night I watched Colt and Linebacker orchestrate the capture of McCarren and they dropped a repair crate, attached was the immediate message we saw: Do repair crates really do that little? TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Had great fun with Octuplefire and eCoke today. RVE Snowman doing his thing with 9 a2a kills in the VIGGEN. (3 of those were me, Thanks SnowMan.) Love seeing the team work with huey's bringing in JTACs for F5s to drop GBUs on. Pretty slick little setup. I'll be back again soon! TJ

Operation "Blue Flag" - 24/7 PvP Campaign - Nevada - Round 1 Dang Sniper, you're an airline pilot. Spend the fifty bucks and get NTTR. [emoji6] It's currently a pretty fun f5 v mig21 battle. Both airplanes have a2a and a2g capability so it's quite fun (today was my first day in maybe two months.) Aren't you a pretty good f5 driver? You'd love this.... Edit because I hit send too soon. Caucuses will be back online as soon as ED figure out why radar makes everything so dang slow. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Blue a10c and red viggen? No way. Rwr and mws is worth 100 times that in the viggen. Now, blue a10a and red viggen is a step in the right direction! TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

OMG!!! You guys crack me up. TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This! All of this!!! Agreed whole heartedly. TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I wish we could just roll the server back. Seems like a relatively easy fix. I hope this isn't "the end" for Blue Flag. TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So asking if rolling back to 1.5.6 is off limits? I noticed my post was deleted but no reference or PM. This seems like a legit question. With the performance issues of 1.5.7 I'd be up for discussing it. I guess the BF team isn't? Or is it being modded by forum admins? TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's the quality of the connection. Only google offers gigabit currently. That connection is high quality straight to a backbone, which in turn means less hops (hence lower ping.) I get sub 7ms pings to most of the US. Alaska and Hawaii are different. You can tell when a server is over the ocean... your ping drastically jumps from 5-7 to 100ish ms. I am in KC, I work right up the road from where you live. :) TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's definitely on the other side of the world. I thought more like France (but I don't honestly know.) It's one of the rare servers for me to have a 100ms ping to. Gigabit internet is epic. 4ms ping to the 104th. :) TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sorry to hear. I was hoping that would buy you a little extra performance to keep you from having to upgrade. Sounds like it might be time to plan a new build. Good luck TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think I'd put my hopes into improving a system that barely runs DCS rather than hoping devs optimize their models so they run on machines that have SEVEN year old graphics cards... TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Dear cribob and team. My back hurts. My hands are sore. Since I haven't been able to Blue Flag I honestly haven't played any DCS. (The terrible performance of the new patch isn't helping things either.) Please get Blue Flag up and running. I've stained my deck. Cleaned out the gutters. Started painting rooms in the house. Installed new blinds. Built a playground in the backyard. I'm worn out. Help a guy out. Please get Blue Flag back up and running soon. Thx TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

1080 to 1080ti... No improvement? Just saw the above. Go to your favorite pc parts store. Pay 25-30 bucks for the Hyper 212 evo air cooler (I believe it supports the 3770k, check first.) OC your CPU and buy 2.1 on the summer sale. You'd be amazed at what you get from an extra ghz of processing power. TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

2.1 is on sale now as part of the DCS summer sale. Before you buy a new CPU see if you see better performance in 2.1 first. TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Let's try a 25% difference between today's offerings (6700k or 7700k) and a 3770k. You also have to stop your argument around OC'ing. If I'm going to OC a 3770k, why wouldn't I OC a 7700? I agree that you can't quite OC a 7700 like you can a 3770 (only about 600 or 700mhz on 67 or 7700 vs 1.1 ghz of the 3770.) However, the architecture advancements of the 67 or 7700 series make up for its smaller OC headroom. This is why you've never seen a 3770k (even at 4.5 or 4.6ghz) perform as well with DCS as a 67 or 77. The CPU architecture just doesn't support it as well as a more advanced offering. There is no question about it. For its time and money, the 3770k was a BEAST. But it's 5+ years old now and it's showing it's age. On games that require single threaded performance, the 6700k and 7700k lines of processors will still be preferred. And also- I feel like I shouldn't have to say this but I will... games that use a modern engine that relies heavily on your GPU perform quite well on a 3770k. DCS isn't there yet. 2.1 is a step in the right direction. TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just curious, are you in 2.1 or 1.5 version of DCS? TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That CPU doesn't have anywhere near the single threaded performance of newer chips. All DCS cares about is single threaded performance. DCS will be heavily CPU bound on this older chip and its bottlenecking the old 1080, let alone the 1080ti. TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

A rather old CPU that can't feed a 1080, let alone a 1080ti? TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your hard work Team Blue Flag admins. Today (my Saturday) I had to play on other servers that offered a similar setup and I found them no where near as fun as BF. Thanks again for everything you guys do. Good luck trying to get the 1.5.7 issues squared away. TJ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
