Operation "Blue Flag" - 24/7 PvP Campaign - ROUND 9

Recommended Posts

Hi. Is there somewhere a description how the WWII Normandy BF works? What are the main task, in example how to capture the airfields? Transport flights are available only from one airbase - Le Molay which has 0% health and is not spawn-able for blue at the moment. This kind-of like like a deadlock situation where it is not possible to repair/capture any new bases. Are there repair crates? What is the role of naval groupds, etc.

F/A-18, F-16, F-14, M-2000C, A-10C, AV-8B, AJS-37 Viggen, F-5E-3, F-86F, MiG-21bis, MiG-15bis, L-39 Albatros, C-101 Aviojet, P-51D, Spitfire LF Mk. IX, Bf 109 4-K, UH-1H, Mi-8, Ka-50, NTTR, Normandy, Persian Gulf... and not enough time to fully enjoy it all

It's indeed not very transparent how this setup works. I also struggle figuring this out.

Why are there "insivible FARP" markers at deployed mortar-locations, can helicopters now deploy FARPs anywhere on the map? 😯

They can deploy FOBs, which include "invisible FARPs":

When can we expect Tor SAMs (maybe even player controllable?) on PG server? Currently there isn't a single land-SAM on PG server that can intercept HARMs, correct? (Only the ships currently?)

HARMs currently are waaaaay too OP, and player-deployed Hawk SAM thus an incredibly low & short survival-rate. (also partially due to JTAC slot not able to temporarily manually shut down SAM radars and set engagement range.)

 

Would be great to have Tor SAM in CTLD script.

@xcom What about DCS voice chat? Why it is turned off on the server? Any plans to turn this DCS's out-of-the-box comms on?

I guess it's turned off, because SRS is working great and offers more functionality as of today. Having both enabled would just end in chaos.

The only functionality SRS gives is GCI comms, but it will be added to VC a bit later.

SRS requires some actions on installing and tunning, it also uses a computing resources, not much but it is.

Nevertheless why VC and SRS could not be used simultaneously? What chaos do you mean, I don't understand... Far not all virpils use SRS now, but they could use VC.

And doesn't DCS still lack integration with radio switches & knobs in cockpits? (SRS only works when on the right frequency in the cockpit for example, and cockpit volume-knobs control SRS volume, as example)

Has still none of this massive PvP community/moderators reported this returned super-unrealism-bug to ED after all these months??? (Persian Gulf server) "free-cam bug how-to": 1. takeoff-crash into any static building right after you started your aircraft, 2. mousewheel scroll to free-cam and tell all your wingmen where enemy units are. 3. profit, the team that better makes use of this bug might win... Oh coooome ooooon!! 😩 Fix asap ED! Because we already had this bug few years ago, and it somehow returned! 😭

JF-17 switch to red team please. Else we're never ever gonna witness team blue teamwork capability-level in team red this century, which really is a major setback to any new DCS player joining red team. Blue team has impressive teamwork 80-90% of the time.

Any plans for TF-51 on any of the two Caucasus servers? Now that the PG server is offline, TF-51 can't be flown in Blue Flag at all. Please add slots on any of the Caucasus servers.

A WW2 plane has no business in a modern jet setting and feels out of place there. I'm glad it's been removed.

Well QuiGon, the TF-51 was A-mazing for placing Stingers kinda anywhere on the map.

Doesn't change anything about it being a WW2 aircraft that doesn't belong in a modern combat setting.

It's still flown today, QuiGon. And it's a free airplane and thus an exceptional feature for servers to attract new players.

If it were the only or fastest means to deliver a high value item to a strategic key position, why should it not be used, supported by AWACS?

Because they are WW2 assets and thus belong into WW2 (or Korean war) missions. Since the 1970s, no military operates them anymore and thus they feel completely out of place in a modern combat scenario. Also they are not transport aircraft.

QuiGon... even US military STILL develops new (ridiculously awful looking) prop aircraft!!! https://www.sandboxx.us/blog/socoms-new-prop-driven-attack-plane-can-actually-help-counter-china/ null

They (TF-51s) can be used as transport aircraft, when the rear seat is empty.
