Alpenwolf Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 Suggestion/idea for the server: Not sure if it's possible or not, but it might be interesting to have a handful of strategic targets to strike. Factories, bridges, etc. CAS is not the F-5s strong suit (especially without a FAC firing target marking rockets.....hmmmm) and some static strike targets might make for some interesting missions. As an incentive, enemy aircraft could be removed and/or friendly added for each successful strike. Also, when choosing locations for the next mission, keep in mind each aircrafts navigational capabilities. Not that Sochi is all that hard to find, but TACAN equipped fields could make some lower wx scenarios possible for the F-5 bubbas. None of this is meant as a critique of the current state of the server, which is great. Just throwing some ideas out there. Suggestions are always welcome. We always try to meet everyone's wishes until they don't meet those of others :smilewink: The server focuses mainly on the Fishbed and the Tiger - Dogfights! There are ships out there for the Viggen, ground units 1-2 km south of Maykop's airbase for strikers to destroy and a transport mission for the Mi-8 and the UH-1 to capture Maykop once the ground units are destroyed (check out the briefing). For more CAS/SEAD/Transport missions other servers surely have more to offer. This mission is the second for this server and compared to the previous one it has more to offer for strikers and helicopters. Soon I'll be working on a third mission for the server that will surely have more objectives for strikers and helicopters. Might as well take the HAWK out the server then ;( P.S server is down again What's wrong with that? Without the SAM sites around the airbases players would be killed at respawn. We don't want that. When this server is down, two consequences: 1: the only server with a realistic planeset is gone. 2: no more servers for the F-5E ! According to IronJockel - server's admin - it's a DCS issue. He's trying to come up with a script to fix that. Turns out to be more complicated that what he's assumed.

razo+r Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 I think he ment the plane HAWK since it's damage model interaction with flight model interaction is horrible and without the AIM-9M the HAWK has only the gunpod left to fight with
comie1 Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 razo+r got it in 1. The Hawk only has the aim-9M and the gunpod. I was having fun fighting Migs in it, despite using aim-9m's the range and window for tone is so small u had to work really hard to get a shot. Was ace! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] https://www.twitch.tv/comie1

My bad :doh: If I put back the AIM-9M then I'll have to do the same with R-73. Had some complaints about the strikers being deadlier in dogfights due to these 2 missiles. Guess I'm gonna have to put them back. Will do over the weekend. S! HACA DYCA Discord Cold War 1947 - 1991 You can help me with keeping up the server via PayPal donations: hokumyounis@yahoo.com

foxmaner Posted March 4, 2017 Posted March 4, 2017 Any news about Lotatc on the server? Skickat från min SM-A310F via Tapatalk [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Decibel dB Posted March 4, 2017 Posted March 4, 2017 The server as been out for the last few days I try to get in, Is it the same for you guys?
Alpenwolf Posted March 4, 2017 Posted March 4, 2017 Upset the hawk has no air to air :noexpression: The Hawk will get the AIM-9M back. I think we're gonna have to deal with the server crashing so often in the meantime...

Decibel dB Posted March 6, 2017 Posted March 6, 2017 Since the server is down I've been spending way to much time with the wife, she getting on my nerve, we're on the verge of divorce. This is an appeal for the restoration of the server that can probably save our marriage. Thank you :music_whistling:

Ill charge the bandwidth on my wife credit card lol o7 Keep you in the loop? Yeah frustration is a bitter pill to swallow but I ain't keeping no one in no bloody loops! All I can do is inform you of what I know. I only volunteered to help IronJockel since he's the only admin out there for this server. I design the missions and he hosts. A new mission is in progress but will not be released until the server is finally stable and we get to fly the current new one for a while. All that matters now is a steady server. And THAT is beyond my doing. Beacuse, again, IronJockel is the host. Not me.

I know it's hard times when the server crashes and doesn't come back. Just talked to IronJockel; he's on a vacation. Another ACG member however will be helping out until IronJockel's back.

comie1 Posted March 8, 2017 Posted March 8, 2017 Hi any chance of having the server reset today? was it on at all yesterday? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] https://www.twitch.tv/comie1

Alpenwolf Posted March 8, 2017 Posted March 8, 2017 Doh! Withdrawal setting in, wish their were more cold war servers I only wish we finally get this problem over with. Some are starting to have seizures I guess. IronJockel is still on vacation and his ACG replacement is hard to contact. His username is pitti. If you see him on the ACG TS just tell him.
