We were expecting IC and MiG 21 radar fix and got some vague additions of support and like 3 bugfixes

Not even a patch for the "live" version, just some stuff for the open beta build that won't be updated to the main version for a week or more.

 

Call it what it is, not what we wanted it to be.

This is not true they often have released a beta on friday and if nothing is broke they release it to stable around wednesday.

cobra makes it sound like the mig was fixed in todays patch.

 

Expecting the IC is alittle far fetched for 1.5.3 i think. that was part of the large 2.0.2 update and who knows IF they plan on putting it in 1.5.3, just like you can change controls in 2.0.2 now in MP.

maby i missed a post somewhere tho.

i would think for a IC change you would have to see a version 1.5.4.

 

EDIT ignore that about the mig 21 i missed this. http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2769896&postcount=81

No- unfortunately we did not expect a patch this Friday.

 

New binaries are in QA and should be available soon for 1.5.3.52724 Release.

But there's a patch every friday?

not every friday but apparently they dont play the game other then there modules? last week was gazelle release and it was said and expected the gazelle would be released on 1.5.3 today which would mean a patch. but hey. i said the same thing you did.

[viperdogsnake]

Whats the status Greg on kicking the round off? Are we gonna wait for Gazelle, 21, and Hawk fixes, or do you plan to kick off next weekend. I hope you wait especially being a selfious Fishbed driver. I think everyone including myself thought that would happen today but did'nt (a little irking or alot.) Even with the small quirks your server has doesn't change the fact that you have the most immersive campaign in this sim so far. Keep the heads high and push forward. Cheers!

[Aeons]

The new open beta patch doesn't let u use the center fuel tank in the mirage anymore.

[gregzagk]

It seems we have to wait a bit more unfortunately. Will discuss with the rest of the buddyspike team to get the final decision. In the meantime please use the stable version to enter the server.

 

At the other hand this gives us time to add some features that were initially planed for a later stage.

 

Some changes on the last two days should improve stability in the server. Please let us know if you experience any lag issues or so.

 

Thanks

A couple of desync issues the last 2 days, one friend got killed by SAM on my chat but he didn't actually get hit himself until a minute later, which was no warning then map screen death.

The other instance was a Mirage took multiple missile hits, it was on fire trailing a black cloud after the first hit, after several more hits it was still flying around as though nothing had happened. Both sound like desync though last one could have been down to the Mirages inconel forged body. :D

 

 

 

Also I hope you dealt with the team killer appropriately yesterday, we took a 6 ship at Krymsk started the refuelling process as this guy taxied out with no weapons, he took off and made constant low passes over us, also during take off. Finally he formed on our six and began gunning us all, funny stuff for the reader but a total piss take after so much time spent to get in the air.

Mirage is great and beautiful. It's a shame you tried to shoot it down. :D

Thanks will check out the logs.

The name of the teamkiller was Mr Asperger.

 

Yes couple of desyncs....lol at this mirage. We shot 3 73s + half of my guns and he was still trying to shoot us down :D. And the server was lagging. We had lags and warps the whole time.

I banned him from Georgian Spring for the same reason. He took off in a Sabre and started straifing planes refueling and lining up for takeoff on the same airfield.

[xcom]

Thank you guys, we will check and in case this is correct, he will be banned permanently.

[OperatorJack]

lmao blue getting BTFO

I can add to the dsync yesterday. Majority of missiles would loose track against AI F-4e. I used 8 missiles to take down AI without him employing any countermeasures. Was well within displayed Rmax. Missiles would start tracking, then drift into the ground (no terrain issues or mtn evading). The ones that did track would start to drift off and then smoke trail would curve post desync and track. Same for behavior between heaters and radar missiles. These are the same issues I had in round 5. Especially when you get a jump on the 104th boys only to see the element of suprise porked away based on this issue.

For sure the BF is not perfect and there can be million opinions on how to balance and setup different things. On the other hand there are no perfect multiplier games. Especially with flight simulators where there are so many variables and limitations it'll never be fair.

Just to give you an example, we can spend thousands of posts on 120C being "op" but all of the arguments will not be important in the situation like at the moment when the server is 35red vs 10blue. Other example - if you're a transport heli pilot you can spend hours on capturing locations, setting up defenses and you'll not get a single point for doing all of that.

But then again, why should we really care so much about such issues? Blue flag it's just pure fun and gives a lot of satisfaction from working with and helping your team.

 

I would love to see the community focusing more on supporting the Buddy Spike Team and 373vfs to make it better and give them more credit for their hard work and involvement.

 

Great thanks for organizing the Blue Flag! It's a first time I'm playing it and even though it's still in testing thanks to it I had one of the best if not the best moments in DCS :thumbup:

Once the gazelle will be included will it have any special purpose? I mean, how about giving it the possibility to transport infantry units? (it has 3 slots for passengers in the rear) Or maybe make it able to scout airfields like the hawk and the l-39 are able to at the moment.

How about making the Gazelle the Blue attack chopper so they don't have the Ka-50

It's an attack chopper only for now. The transport version will follow later (as well as an A2A-version and a sniper version).

This!

Heeey, i want to fly the gazelle. But would actually be pretty unfair, just like taking away the Mirage 2000 for one side and tell them they got the Mi-..., oh wait.

[Beeroshima]

Attack chopper with 4 atgms, no rockets and no guns.

Hey, don't cry over this - you have 80's Mirage 2000 with BVR missiles, where we have 70's Mig-21 with discutable weapons. ;-)

[TheSnark]

Pretty good idea to have it replace the Ka-50 for blue. Not as powerful as the Shark but hey, another interesting change!
