Body Farm Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 The only issue that troubles me, is if I lose connection to the server (which happened once on the last event) and since we are not in a confined space (like the last event), re-spawning and rejoining could be an issue. By no mean this is complain, just thinking out load as I'm suffering some internet mishaps the last two days...:( [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charly_Owl Posted August 23, 2015 Author Share Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) A FEW LAST MINUTE REMINDERS 1) Be on time! (event time mentioned at beginning of thread) 2) Listen to your flight lead. If you're here to fly by your lone self, you will most likely be a liability more than anything. 3) Flight leads will have a short briefing at event start time. We will decide who does what and how we do it. 4) Keep your comms to a strict minimum: there will most likely be 30+ people joining the event. If you want to chat about your week-end, do it afterwards. 5) Be nice, be courteous... we're all on the same team here. 6) The mission will be difficult but by no means impossible. We will need teamwork to get through it. It is designed this way. 7) Cooperation between gunships and slicks will be essential. Gunships can't secure the crash site by themselves, and neither the slicks. 8) Ka-50 pilots: you will be spearheading the whole effort to secure the crash site. We need to know where you are and what you're doing at all times. 9) Landing on ships will be difficult. Use your radar altimeter or doppler altimeter: it'll help. If landing on frigates is too difficult for you (and it's perfectly ok!), you can still land on the Carl Vinson carrier right next to it and pick up troops from here. 10) Whisper lists: flight leads will have whisper lists set to every flight channel. If a flight lead presses his whisper button, everyone in the whole op should be able to hear him. This measure might be a bit overkill, but it will make the leads' tasks easier since they won't have the additional workload to relay the information from Command to every member of the flight. This means they can concentrate on flying instead. 11) The MEDEVACS from PEDRO will pick up the medical teams at FARP HOPE, not the Ultimate flights. Therefore, we want to keep them alive at all costs. 12) COMMS: when you want to communicate to another flight, name your callsign first (so we know who's talking) followed by the callsign you are speaking to. This will make communications much easier: I don't know everyone here and I don't expect everyone to know me. Using callsigns will be simpler and more effective. Example: "Rectifier Two, this is Ultimate One." "Go ahead Ultimate One." "We need fire support on this small village on your low three o' clock." "Wilco, Ultimate One. Rectifier is guns hot. Out." And that's it! I hope we can get through this together!

P5138 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) I didn't catch this event until now. Is there room for a late sign-up for the final Mi-8 slot (or the Ka-50 slot that RightStuff had to leave in the post below, if that's more important)?

RightStuff Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Gents, because of R/L issues I'll be not showing up this evening. :( Sry about this late information, but sometimes things happen not as planned... So my Ka-50 seat is free to be entered. Have fun & good luck to everyone! I'm looking forward for round three. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team Raptor9 Posted August 23, 2015 ED Team Share Posted August 23, 2015 12) COMMS: when you want to communicate to another flight, name your callsign first (so we know who's talking) followed by the callsign you are speaking to. .... Example: "Rectifier Two, this is Ultimate One." Just to clarify something, since communication can always break down easily, the above statement contradicts the example below it. The example is correct. You say who you're calling, followed by who you are ("Hey you, this is me"). If someone uses brevity to the point of saying just: "Rectifier Two, Ultimate One." then knowing who the sender vs who the receiver is can get confusing if everyone isn't on the same page. Afterburners are for wussies...hang around the battlefield and dodge tracers like a man. DCS Rotor-Head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P5138 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Well Raptor looks like you just got promoted to UGLY ONE. Still one Huey Medevac and one Ka-50 slots remaining. As those slots just opened up, might I transfer to either one of the other helos (from the Mi8 ) if no one else takes them? I definitely am more confident in the Huey than I am in the Hip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charly_Owl Posted August 23, 2015 Author Share Posted August 23, 2015 I don't know if it was discussed but will the F10 Map GPS like icon be removed? No. Implementing proper navigation beacons for the two legs proved to be problematic due to known issues in multiplayer. When I can find a reliable, noob-proof way of implementing nav beacons we'll use those to navigate. But in the mean time we'll use what works as a temporary measure. Personally, I don't use F10 map but I don't want to deprive those who feel less comfortable to fly without it. F10 will not display enemy forces though. @P5138 Done, you'll be in Jacks' flight with the MEDEVACS.
