Also please change back the website to not require left ctrl to zoom in map... IF visitors want to scroll website, they JUST have to move mouse out of map area... Nothing easier than that.

Looks like there was an issue with it - fixed now and all future flights will be saved for 2 days before deletion in this folder :)

 

Thanks, that was quick response!

@ around 20:42Z server received couple of massive fps drops followed by a server freeze. There were some lag spikes prior to the event

I confirm that

 

Edit: I just downloded my ACMI file from that flight and it is empty. Is that because of the server freeze?

Hello dear developers of mission, did you think about tankers on BlueFlag? :) You add they to home airspace of the sides, for example in standart situation Il-76M flight on Maykop-Beslan line or KC-135 with Viking on Batumi-Kutaisi line... when some nearest friendly point was captured this blue fuelline go to Tbilisi area for example...

 

Can you add the tankers? :)

[Parkbank]

[Ciribob]

Well done RED on such a great push to capture all the bases!

Same here!:megalol:

BTW today around @1905Z server crashed.

Before the crash there was a massive lag/desync, then an FPS drop , then an FPS freeze and then the SUPERCRASH itself :cry::music_whistling:

[lemoen]

The server froze multiple times tonight. Basically a complete freeze for several minutes then a recovery / restart.

Ciribob can you put the assigned frequencies for SRS on the gadget please? Can't find them.

Will we get a mission update for 2.5 ?

[QuiGon]

Will we get a mission update for 2.5 ?

We have to, as the map changes. Or we will switch back to Nevada.

I meant in more of coalition/platform updates

Oh, I see. Well, I would guess they want to make sure BF is running fine in 2.5 as it is now before adding/changing stuff.

[Shadow KT]

I was thinking about a solution to the platforms for each side, with realism in mind. I believe this is the best solution as this would make players more dedicated depending on the platforms they use.

 

When I say limited, I am applying that the platform should be limited in numbers and only available at big military/strategic positions.

 

Countries for future modules should be taken in consideration, so mission rebuilding won't be needed.

 

RED:

Ka-50; Su-27/33, MiG-29S; Mi-8;Su-25T/A(Russia)

AJS 37 Viggen (Sweden)

M2000C(Limited)(Peru if it possible to get it under their flag)

SA342 (Serbia or Syria)(Limited) or unique to Blue

JF-17(China/Pakistan)

Mi-24P(Russia)

F-4E; F-14A (Limited) (Iran)

 

 

Blue

AV-8B N/A; A-10C; F-15C; (US)

UH-1H(Georgia/US);Mi-8(Limited);Su-25T(Limited) (Georgia)

M-2000C(Limited); SA432 (Limited) (France)

F-4E; F/A-18C; F/A-14B; OH-58D (US)

Mi-24P (limited) (Georgia)

 

Focusing certain platforms on specific airfields so they become a bigger strategic point

Is it normal that now the server shows the kills in the chat?

I believe this was turned on deliberately.

[QuiGon]

Yes:

Prefer not to elaborate currently to avoid it.

Forgot to add -

- added kill messages.

And is this feature going to stay forever (even in the official rounds) or it's a temporary solution?

I am asking because I think it doesn't fit well in a realistic scenario such BF is trying to represent, because somebody can take advantage of the chat to recognize that, for example, his bandit got killed by his missile even before he checks visually for the splash.

 

I wanna give you an example: today I was flying on blue side with a buddy, we got an helicopter on the radar, so we engaged him. My buddy splashed that bandit with guns without even realising that he got it. We kept searching the target for other 5 mins, then, because of the chat report, we realised that he got splashed. I know that in this case the chat helped us, but it's simply not realistic.

 

Last example (I promise:music_whistling::lol:): I had a dogfight against a su27 ( I was on an f15). I got engaged by him and I replied with a fox2. Then I went into a defensive position trying to avoid his missile, and, because of that I lost visual with him (he was covered by my left wing). The chat feature wasn't enabled yet so I had to turn back to check the splash or the miss. With the chat feature enabled you simply don't have to check if someone got splashed or not, if a buddy doesn't call u on radio because he went down into a fireball or simply because he didn't hear you. It's like having the superpower of omniscience, that u can't have in real life :)

 

P.S: at the end, yes I splashed that 27:pilotfly::joystick:
