Lonewolf

Callsign: Snacko

Side: Blue

Aircraft: MiG-21, SU-25T, A-10A, KA-50, UH-1H

 

How can I test if I an registered? I tried to logon the Round 6 Test Server last Saturday and yesterday but it would not let me pick an aircraft. It kept moving me back to Spectator.. But I see others flying..

Hello, registering in the buddyspike thread would get your name in the participants list.

By registering also in the buddyspike website you would get access to your side's planning forum rooms.

 

When you get in the server the first time you must type RED or BLUE in the chat depending on your prefered side. Then your info is logged and you will get access to the slots.

You will be able to select slots that are available, meaning that airbases that has been captured by the enemy will get their slots deactivated.

 

In any case you can see the reason you are kicked out of the slot through the dcs chat.

 

Here you can see the current map status: http://opblueflag-buddyspike.rhcloud.com/

 

Blue has only 3 airbases left now. Will need to reset soon :D

Thanks! I forgot about the BLUE/RED chat thing since I didn't get in on Rnd 5.

 

I was also looking for that post that explained how to select your aircraft for Lonewolfs and squads.. Can't find that..

[TIGER]

Just to make some questions.

 

1. Is it going to be a new thread for Round 6?

2. Is it going to be with password for people that are registed?

3. Can a squad apply for the round and which side will be and which Airport will use?

4. Is it going to reset the list of people that will participate for Round 6?

 

Thank you in advance

Hello,

 

1. There is going to be a new thread for the Round 1 of Operation "Case Blue" which is the WW2 campaign and then a new one for Round 6 of "Blue Flag".

2. No the server will remain without a password at the moment.

3. Yes you can register here: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=145416. Squadron slots won't be available for the next round so the squadrons can use the general (Red or Blue) slots.

4. Yes each round will have the list reseted so people can type Red or Blue in DCS chat to select their new side.

Great stuff

[Toxic]

AWESOME!!!!!

[104th_Maverick]

Meh..... If the server lag and warping isnt fixed for this round... I'll give it a miss!

[ViFF]

- Added L-39ZA (RED) & HAWK (BLUE) modules

- Added AI bombing script. TU-22s (RED) / B-1 LANCERS (BLUE) will attack targets if L-39s or HAWKs complete reconnaissance missions.

 

hmmm.... I just might need to buy me a Hawk then... :thumbup:

[*Rage*]

Finally a reason to learn the L39!

[Darkwolf]

Can't we get Tu-160 instead ? They are so beautiful and close looking of B1...

[OperatorJack]

As if 104th is any better :lol:

 

This tbh:pilotfly:

Personally I think that both servers are overloaded.

 

First, the number of available slots. According to my opinion, 40-45 slots is optimal (read maximum) for the EVERY DCS server and for clients on it. It does not matter what kind of machine is used as a server, high-end or min. recommended pc configuration. More than 40-45 people on EVERY server is to much/overload.

 

Second, the missions that include to many unnecessary things as vehicles and equipment on the "wrong places" (irrational deployment of units) as well as their quantity. I was three years in the army and never saw tanks at the airport (near hangars or taxiway) as well as infantry units. Each vehicle is intended for specific military units and each unit has its strategic location. But in the DCS on each server in the same place (airport, city, area...) there are aviation, armored units, infantry, SAM units few meters near runway for example and many many more things... next, there are some static objects as scenery etc etc... and so at each place which is considered to be of interest. When we sum all these unnecessary things we get thousands of units in the mission loaded in server/client RAM + scripts = Rock 'N Roll getting started bacause overload.

 

Lagg, freezing, mass kicking and server crashes are experienced by players with low-end PC`s and high-end PC`s at the same time... So?

 

Far from it that I am a some DCS guru but the fact is that in missions are a lot of things that are not important for the final outcome for the mission on many servers and so on 373 and 104th servers too.

 

This is just my opinion and pls don`t get me wrong. I respect mission designers and i know how much work and effort they invest for our fun and trying to satisfy all of us but anyway they should avoid to include anything and everything in mission.

 

It is better to reduce the excessive size of mission (session) with a reduced number of players than the mass events that are unplayable.

Honestly this is just semantics and I find it believable that units can be tasked to operate from an airbase. It doesn't have to only house one type of unit after all.

[doodenkoff]

hmmm.... I just might need to buy me a Hawk then... :thumbup:

 

Very nice. Finally something I can use to be useful.

[Fishnuts]

I see the Hawk is added to the selectable aircraft, but it says it's only for squadron members (or something to that effect). Will this be changing soon for the testing?

[xcom]

glitch which will be fixed.

[Shively]

Just connected to the server, and it appears there are no longer any spawns at any airfield on red team for the Mirage.

 

What gives?
