Good job on the system reboot, last we saw of you it looked like this. :devil_2:

 

 

[HiJack]

LOL

[charlesnett]

somehow i was already registered in the blue side for round 8 or atleast it seems that way. I submitted an app for red side for round 8 and it looks like both now have been subb'd. If thats the case and it is my error i really apologize for giving someone extra work fixing it as i want to be on red side for round 8 please not both even though that would make spying easier LOL.

 

thanks for your help

[Jester Darrak]

At the moment the server is still running in testing mode, the real deal starts tomorrow.

[D4n]

Can we make the SA-8s playable by GCI please? :)

[StandingCow]

Nice to see a lot of people using SRS!

[Voodooflies]

Nice to see a lot of people using SRS!

 

Indeed, I was quite positively surprised today when I heard multiple flight packages stating their intentions on the ATC frequency. :thumbup:

Not for this session sorry.

 

Yes Simple Radio was used by the majority yesterday and it improved a lot the coordination.

 

Get to your side's HQ forum in the http://www.buddyspike.net to prepare your plan!

See you tonight :)

I have to ask this and I think it might be to the benefit of others too:

 

I've seen people complaining about how planes are not displayed where they really are and therefore gun shots and missiles missing a lot. I imagine this was something related to the new extrapolation algorithm.

 

Has anything been done about this or it still works like that? Haven't seen any news related that would've mentioned a fix.

Hey, this actually replaced lag issues etc as far as I understand.

So if someone lags or the server lags you may see him not in the right exact position but not warping like in the past.

 

The tests so far didn't have any big issues, except from yesterday's session in which we had some network problems in the server location.

 

We reduced also the amount of slots to 55 which turned better than the 62 along with some other tweaks. Hoping for the best.

[roccoo]

Hey Greg I don't know why but now airfields 40% repaired are closed after restart! Before it happened with 20% but 40% is really too much! :(

[gregzagk]

Round 8 started!

You will need to type RED or BLUE again in the start before joining a slot.

 

Have fun!

 

@roccoo will check now.

 

Greg

[Hedhunta]

Any chance we can add more server slots? Server was packed today and I couldn't get in :( I'm sure I will get in later but sucks I can't get on when everyone else is playing.

[roccoo]

Only 1 mi-8 in Beslan? Why?

Not unfortunately. 55 is already much.

 

@rocco didn't get a report about during the testing and didn't check. Will add more.
