Thank you :thumbup: I know it's not easy to come on this forum and tell everyone you want to try the awful C101. A lot of haters out there like RustOff-69 but I won't say anything. I can only envy your courage and I am ready to let you choose your favorite skins. :thumbup: On a side note, the C101 is the heaviest aircraft to load in all DCS, about 4 times the MiG21 last time I checked. Please tell me if the server freezes a bit when someone joins in one, I will put a preloaded one like I did for the mig. Mirknir My old server: The Thread
cosmicdoubloon Posted September 20, 2016 Posted September 20, 2016 (edited) 'Open Sea Fleet is now an -ag objective' He said... 'It is almost impossible to destroy' He said... 'I know some people will try' He said.... Well Mr Server Admin Overlord, have I got some news for you :smilewink: (SPOILERS: TLDR after countless deaths and attempts, we killed the objective!) The appearance of the Open Sea Fleet posed as the greatest challenge I've attempted so far on ANY server on DCS, and once again I recruited my ship-busting squadron to tackle the 'impossible objective'. NASA and Bert joined me in SU25Ts loaded to the brim with SEAD missiles to take on the new fleet. Not much to report other than we found our previous tactic that we used on the Resky didn't work; whilst the KH58Us outrange the Moskva cruiser, the CIWS had an 100% intercept rate and the Moskva fired on us and killed us before we could fire the shorter ranged KH25MPUs. At this point GhostEngineer discovered that, by being under 10 m (that's 33 feet for you freedom fanboys!) he managed to get so close to the Carrier accompanying the Moskva that he was TOO close for the enemy missiles to engage and was only downed by the CIWS systems. Using our newfound knowledge and gaining an additional, if unconventional, wingman in the Mig21, we decided to fly out to our fleet for protection, and then get as low as we dared to close. The first run was... eventful. NASA played chicken with a dolphin and lost, so bert and I pushed ahead. What we noticed at that low level was that our radar pods couldn't detect the ships over the horizon so we were mostly blind, relying on the F10 radio menu to keep us on course. We ended up so close that as we attempted to manuever to get onto target bert accidently flew into the sea and so I tried to engage. I fired a KH58U at sea level, well within range and... dead. But not from what you think! I forgot that the KH58U is one of those missiles that drops off the rail THEN fires, so I dropped it straight into the sea and.. boom :doh: Second run was far more successful. Followed same pattern as the first, except we all got in firing range. We fired all our missiles, but they all got intercepted or crashed into the ocean.. EXCEPT ONE! One KH25MPU got through and damaged the Moskva. We may have all died, again, but we showed we can crack their armour. Take three. A couple of fighters had tried to intercept us (looking at you RustOff-69... :lol: ) but couldn't get through our escorts and Cruiser cover so we headed straight for our Cruisers and onward to the Fleet. This time, a massive volley co-ordinated between the three of us saw multiple missiles break through the CIWS screen and before our very eyes, NASA ( of all people!! :lol: ) delivered the killing blow to the Moskva! Scratch one! (check the chatlog ;) ) We were very low on missiles now, but decided to push straight to the carrier. Unfortunately, it nailed all four of us, but we discovered that (compared to the Moskva) its missiles have a far shorter range. Take four. Bert had to leave and so NASA and I pushed on. We traded our ECM and R73s for rockets and left the outer pods empty for speed's sake. Knowing the Kuznecow has inferior missiles we went in at sea level, then climbed to give our missiles a better angle. We fired, and the insane CIWS on the carrier got most of them but we found a blind spot and pounded it. It started burning, and as I lined up for the S13 rockets it exploded, scratch two! NASA and I got one of the fleet ships each. Nothing is indestructable with enough determination! and enough respawns..... :music_whistling: Final toll: redfor - 2 ships : blufor - 14 SU25Ts, 4 Mig-21 They're tough, but not invincible ;) really interesting objective though, took a hell of a lot of work (and about 2 1/2 hours!) to kill but within about 10 minutes of the ships being killed both tankers were dead and a blufor F15 was constantly patrolling the sea where the ships once were, so I'm not 100% sure how balanced it is once both are dead. Unless... respawning ships? :lol: Edited September 20, 2016 by cosmicdoubloon [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
cosmicdoubloon Posted September 20, 2016 Posted September 20, 2016 Bonus Pic, the service ceiling of the SU25 officially is 7000m/23000ft... I think I need to be having words with the Russian Air force :D (remember the altimeter for the SU25 is in meters....) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
acdelta57 Posted September 20, 2016 Posted September 20, 2016 You conveniently left out the part where i had you dead to rights and YOU ejected prior to me firing the missile! Damn capitalist dogs.

acdelta57 Posted September 20, 2016 Posted September 20, 2016 Tho i was not very sucessfull in the killing the 25Ts, i did manage a pair of fighters F15 (just for you mirk!) and Su33.

acdelta57 Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 What is the benefit of radio beacon? You mean beacon for tracking a rescue or something? Moving ship is pretty fun.

Mirknir Posted September 21, 2016 Author Posted September 21, 2016 What is the benefit of radio beacon? You mean beacon for tracking a rescue or something? Moving ship is pretty fun. Yea the 'home' ships where you drop off rescues or pick up cargo. They have a beacon for you to home back to them, especially in fog. Mirknir My old server: The Thread

I'm glad you enjoyed it, we had a fantastic time trying to complete the objective! At one point we were actually wondering if immortality was still on after a couple of missiles looked like they impacted to no effect, I guess their guns hit them just before impact. Is there a difference between the two fleets? The blufor should be the same as the red one isn't it? I'll investigate tonight, but I suspect this could be a sneaky breeky mirknir trick ;) Minor experiments were done with the fast carrier Huey and things seem pretty good and bug/glitch free :) will do some testing with the carrier su33 tonight and report back. Also, still no teleporting ships seen :thumbup: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

bertOC Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 This prop plane madness is bringing out a whole new side of OC, love it! Maybe bc of the upcoming Normandy map, those things do pretty well landing off road. How would you think of the idea to give those planes that are some kind of cargo space or even a passenger slot for the inventory? It would be freakin awesome to deliver cargo or collect pilots in a prop plane! Also, speaking of the inventory.. is there a possibility for Skynet to set cargo space for different loadouts? I'm thinking of the A-10C cargo pots and a somewhat straight road next to a transport objective, this is war after all! Proof that we're serious about this.. more or less :lol:

Mirknir Posted September 21, 2016 Author Posted September 21, 2016 This prop plane madness is bringing out a whole new side of OC, love it! So many sides :thumbup: How would you think of the idea to give those planes that are some kind of cargo space or even a passenger slot for the inventory? It would be freakin awesome to deliver cargo or collect pilots in a prop plane! Cargo slots yea, passengers, no sure if would be realistic even by OC standards. These WWII planes seems to really be for one person :) L39C and other trainers have 1 passengers slots so you can already try with them. Also, speaking of the inventory.. is there a possibility for Skynet to set cargo space for different loadouts? I'm thinking of the A-10C cargo pots and a somewhat straight road next to a transport objective, this is war after all! yea I thought about that but it leaves so much test case where you put cargo pods and then load up a bunch of OC cargo then change to another loadout and your cargo pods are gone so I have to remove 'some' OC cargos.... I didn't feel like solving all these problems especially since only the A10c has transport pods. Mirknir My old server: The Thread
