Externals "ON"

Map view "ON"

Labels are available (Shift F10 to kill em)

Padlock "ON"

Easy radar- FUGGETABOUDIT!!! :cry:

 

Regular stock mission. 2 sides.

 

Teamspeak channel is 66.165.113.50 Join it- If any trainers or mentors get on & want to help- they will be on it. Don't expect training via the chat function.

 

read the briefing, please. This mission can only run for about 4 hours. If the BLUE naval group survives- it kinda takes over the entire scene- this means RED is somewhat screwed at this point..

 

 

So RED SU 33's- Get together with some MOSKITS and take em out!!

Cheers to the 77th! It's a wonderful way to get the noobs up to speed and let them have some fun, learn, and get hooked on this great sim.

 

I'd also encourage those people who are "old heads" to show up on teamspeak and help out. It's a refreshing experience and will give you an idea on how LOFC missiles work (DISCLAIMER: not necessarily IRL missiles) and how they can be defeated (in LOFC). It's a good learning experience for all!

 

Nice job 77th! Keep up the good work!

I've been in our public TS channel for about 2 hours and so far no one has joined it.

 

To quote one of the great lines in cinema history, "Chump don't want no help, chump don't get no help."

 

"Smack 'em, yack 'em."

 

My apologies to those that don't speak jive. ;-)

Alright- ole Bessy is back to normal- hope y'all had fun. For the first timers today- hopefully you think that online play is a hoot and a half, and know you know that you CAN do this- you CAN fly against others, you CAN react to various tactical problems, and guess what ?-

 

 

You CAN do this without the easier settings on, too.

 

 

We'll do this again sometime soon. I can run a carrier ops & refeuling room (weapons free) I can run regular stuff and turn off labels for a bit- to take steps to learning how to point & use the radar. Whatever. Feel free to post ideas here or at our site. (keep it relatively simple, lol)

I'm going to classes this week. Aren't you supposed to be replacing fuel lines or somthing? :music_whistling:

 

Nope, I'm on the launch truck this week, we sit around and wait for them to call us with a job (jet with a problem). So I'm just checking the forums and browsing the net.

Cut it out RuGG, we're STILL waiting for the Summer weather to arrive over here in the UK. Us Brits run screaming indoors looking for sunscreen when it goes anything over 68 degrees - LOL

When I was new I wanted to see the map view.

 

What do you mean "When I was new" :music_whistling:

A question for the newer pilots out there.

 

Which would you rather see on a server, external views, map view with all units visible or labels?

I guess the best for noob server would be external YES, map YES, padlock YES, labels NO.

Someone would pretty much have to be at the ready to solve technical problems, reboot after a crash, monitor for clients with excessive pings hosing up the works..

 

OH.. did I say excessive ping? Hmm who would get the honor of determining that for ED? I can hear the lawsuit threats now... "I PAID for this **** and you say I can't use your server just because I connect through my work fax line

 

 

How would the server be admin'ed? If someone comes in deliberately TK'ing or purposely crashing to hose the frames or make the runway unuseable? (it's happened before)

 

hell How would they pay for it? Compared to the income of the kiddie-shooters- ED & other similar flight sim companies are on proverbial food stamps. You can surmise about charging for it all you like but do you really know if it would work? If it did - would it last long enough to recover the initial & ongoing investment?

 

Don't get me wrong. I like the sound of it at face value- But I'm on the admin team of a server now- and ...well .. it ain't easy. You can't make em all happy, the expenses are significant, and you can't always be available to fix issues be it technical or a client being a .....

 

 

Hmmm......:megalol:

You chose to do it. Don't complain about something you chose to put upon yourself.

We just set the server up how our members wanted to play, because they were the ones paying for it.

 

There's absolutely nothing wrong with that. However, the S77th is trying to be more helpful to the newer members of the community or even older members who have not played online. We are donating the use of our server in an effort to expand the currently meager online community. Most of the day, we were available on TS to answer questions. As a pleasant surprise, we even had Ironhand on TS helping out. (Thanks, Rich)

 

We will likely be doing it again soon. So rugg and Cali, if you have anything you'd like to contribute to the noob community, join up on TS. Or you could just spam the next thread too.

I'll just keep spamming threads...but maybe I'll add something after I get my computer running the way it should.
