"Buddy Spike" - DCS World Online Events

[BodyOrgan]

Yes, and I perfectly love to use the dead reckoning with doppler navigation in Mi-8. It's just that, heaving the possibility to mark for myself and maybe other guy with which we're setting up a Kub the location where the crates were dropped just saves the paper and simplifies the communication.

Yep, it's a little arcade like, but not too much as long as the own position marker isn't there. We just assume the other pilot marks the appropriate spot you tell him (the arcade part), and then as long as they know where they are they can plot a course to your marker.

 

Now if only we could drop radio beacons, and then home on those.

Okay Al Gore, how can I not have a clue when you're spelling out exactly what you want? I only mentioned 16AGR because it's what you spelled out, and yes I like 16AGR because like I said I'm not all about uber realism all the time.

 

You want BuddySpike to turn Blue Flag into a casual experience which suits your needs because you're unable or unwilling to run that type of server yourself, and apparently unable or unwilling to check out other servers. Since there are endless amounts of air quakes servers, and at least one casual dynamic campaign, I personally don't want to see the single slightly hardcore server go the casual route.

 

Unlike you, I don't think there is only one server out there.

 

You didn't listen to anything i said did you. That is what you get out of all of it? Because i defend markers? Sorry but that is very narrow minded.

And endless amount??? Maybe if you count the servers with 1 or 2 or even 0 players in it. Sorry to burst your bubble but there is not much MP gameplay at all. Only several servers where you can play with a good amount of players.

It's all I got out of it. Perhaps your English runs deeper than mine.

Probably yes... reading and understanding things at the same time is very difficult for you it seems. You just take what you want from it and that's it. But what was i thinking trying to explain my point and show different views. Nobody wants to really understand things these day's anyway.

[ApoNOOB]

What is this useless discussion? Who cares about bloody markers?!

 

Sometimes I really dread to open this thread.

Maybe you guys should take this to PMs and work out your issues, not sure anyone wants to see it in this thread.

I suspect the BF team have long since turned off reply notifications.

Being as we are discussing cool stuff.

Can we have kill messages back on? :devil_2:

I can not connect, always the message "protocol error" or "DCS has stopped working" appears.

It seemed like the Pro-No-Markers side was actually the ones using passive aggressive techniques. XD

 

 

 

Also, the quip about lone wolves goes against the SOP.

 

 

This is from the SOP:

""Operation “Blue Flag” is a 24/7 PvP campaign for DCS World organised by “Buddy Spike”.

Registered squadrons and lonewolves will consist 2 sides (RED / BLUE) which will fight each

other in order to capture and hold airbases, FARPs, cities and communication arrays. The

map is divided into PAK's (areas of interest)."

 

I'll leave it at that, we've all stated our opinions now, just felt you guys were alittle rough on winchester and he was just standing his ground.

The last week or so someone on Red has some how found a way to spawn all Red AI fighters at once. Every time they do this the server crashes soon after. Yesterday they spawned both blue and red fighters. I have screen shots of every time it has happened and one player is a constant. Please ban him. I am sure you aware of who it is.

Yes checking how this can be done as we are still running a testing round.

Dunno why you quoted that post, but I guess you meant my question about road bases and Viggen ?

 

Planes can be refueled/rearmed and repaired by FARPs technically, since they hold all the supplies. You just have to be close enough. So if some logistics units got moved closer to some roads at some farps that would be enough already. Spawning probably is not an option until we get placable aitstrips.

 

But getting rearms/refuels from some FARPs would be very cool already. Or just FARPs with no helos spawning there, so its just a forward refueling/rearming point for planes and helos.

lol sorry this is if you are trying to post through the phone...

ehehe :D

 

Would the roadbase thingy possible though ? :music_whistling:

 

I would also be fine with just an EWR and one of the command bunkers which are mostly under the surface, so its actually quite stealthy :D No needs for defenses and stuff. :D

[dartuil]

Hello can admin unban me?

[duffeys1]

ETA on server being back up?

I would wait with such a feature, because we will get placeable airfields soon and they might bring stuff that might be useful for such a feature.

[Voodooflies]

It seems like most of the people are like "lol blue flag is the real thing" then they join and behave like in 104th.

 

High five bro.

 

Edit: My 2 cents: it should be 1 live per server restart or at least 20-30 minutes respawn penalty or it will remain airquake in the peak hours.

Edit: also limit missiles and fuel way more, so each side should be cautious for resources and may be there kwill be more important fuel convoys which can be attacked. It will make things much more interesting.

 

I like the idea, but better not have any connection issue, otherwise you're trapped forever, that's the only downside of having a single life, but I'll support this though, my other 2 cents. I assume people would get more cautious, implicated and focused on their aircraft with harder restrictions. I'm also a pro-no-marker person aswell, as I believe navigation is one of the first main perks to master, I always believed Blue Flag isn't for rookies. On top of that, GCI may provide alpha checks to homeplate or either snaps. Regarding rotary wings, mixing IFR & VFR is manageable to reach any TA in my own opinion.

We will get them with the new caucasus map at best. Because current caucasus is old standard.

 

Also having an entire Airfield is much more luxury then just a road to land on ! :D

And they won't work on the T3 Caucasus map? How do you know?

 

But yeah, I also don't think we will see them in DCS 1.5, but not necessarily because of technical limitations.

That's true, but maybe there will be additional features that will help with such things. Maybe something like the ability to designate certain areas as airfields or special support vehicles/buildings, .... Stuff like that.

Because the function is already there, it only does not work. Also Wags stated that the feature will work on the Normandy map out of the box.

 

So I really thing its t3 which it doesnt work with. Which seems reasonable regarding the state clipping of objects is in with t3. :D

 

You can already designate anything as a storage building and then just place the supply vehicles afaik. FARP are just an easy solution if the team doesnt want to add more strategic positions. Finding a place where you can possibly turn around is more of a challenge. You can do it with the mirage but its pretty stop gap. :D

 

Not saying having deployable road bases out of the box wouldnt be nice. It would be very much indeed. But I am just not seeing it happen close to Viggen release. :D

[plaiskool]

It's there something going on with TS and serv ATM? can't connect to both.

 

A live chat would be awesome into the Buddy Cloud page!
