Recommended Posts

Official Blue Flag Round 1 on Persian Gulf

 

We're ready to launch the official Blue Flag round this Friday, October 19th at 18:00 UTC. The round will last until Sunday, November 4th - or until the map is fully conquered - which ever comes first. The winner is the team holding the most objectives at the end of the time period.

 

Questions? Ask in #blueflag on Discord

 

All server state is saved, even through crashes, as well as unpacked units providing a dynamic online battle.

 

Any OPEN BETA updates during the round period will be applied to the server as soon as possible - unless a module is disabled or broken

 

TacView will be disabled on the server

 

To start your planning early - join the server and type either "red" or "blue" to set your selection for Friday. This will give you access to your teams HQ on Discord for Planning.

 

There will be NO side switches - once you've picked - it's final until the end of the round so think carefully before typing!

 

Full SOP here - not quite ready for PG but a lot of the info is valid: https://tinyurl.com/bf-sop-v2 - thanks to MorpheusXAUT and Dedde and many others

 

Please Note: When the server is restarting - DO NOT JOIN IT - wait until you see 30 seconds on the mission timer before trying to join.

How about creating some kind of score for helo (transport) pilots for succesfully deploy troops capturing farp/airbase or setting up a SAM/EWR site.

How do you acknowledge their efforts without a score ? I'm aware we can vote for MVP in the end, but without score I'm afraid its gonna be very subjective.

Good point. And concerns the Silkworm HY-2 and Stinger/Iglas.

That's more like it with a dedicated thread :thumbup:

 

Will you force schemes in order to help IFF? That'd be great.

you guys have been busy :thumbup:

 

But remember that a kill is NOT the only way to have a successfull mission.

 

 

- Remember that if you stop the enemy from reaching his target, then that is also a mission success, no matter if he die or turn arround and fly home again. :)

After all, Buddyspike will decide whether some excellent fighter pilot or some excellent transport pilot is the MVP :thumbup:

I think the Blue shouldn't have 2 Kuznetsov's and it should be placed little bit far from Red coast. I noticed it launched multiple missiles on Oliver Hazard around Dubai which makes it MVP on its own lol.

Well THAT was a quick round. xD Even though red has more than 100 registrations more, interesting. Will the map just be reset and event continue? I was gonna join the event (red) in 2 days...

You need all types of aircraft to accomplish a mission. It's just that helicopters are the ones to seal it, so they're the last thing to remember seconds before sounding the victory, and as such considered by many most vital here in DCS.

 

Think of it as a football game. The goalkeeper is your SAM battery, while the defenders are the IR SAM's and AAA's. Midfielders are your fighters, while the wing-backs are the attackers. The helicopters are the ones to finish the job and therefore your centre forward. They score the goals! So they are considered most valuable, although the wing-backs (the strikers) carry the ball all the way forward (providing SEAD and CAS) for the centre forward (the helicopters) to score a goal (delivering cargo). The midfielders make sure the enemy doesn't counterattack and dominate the middle field (air superiority). So saying the centre forward is the one who decides the outcome of a match, and therefore most important is a bit unfair to the other players. Helicopters (centre forwards) are important no doubt, but so are the other types of aircraft.

 

Now, that's some horseshit up there, I know. I just felt like writing nonetheless. Don't mind me :smilewink:

It was quick, but action packed. Much fun, and great attendance. The amount of chat in discord over the last 3 days underlines the incredible interest and passion that the Blue Flag matches bring to DCS through the players.

 

I daresay that Blue Flag is a staple of DCS multiplayer. It certainly brought me into this sim in full force and has kept me interested to the exclusion of all other games.

it was a nice competition. i think i prefer PG to georgia. it's certainly easier to see targets.

 

 

the big change besides that was AMRAAM availability, which was interesting and i'm not sure how to feel about. i personally prefer SARH-only but B-77 wasn't too bad i think, though personally i felt that red (actually blue) was handicapped by the addition of the hornet as it's radar and SA-maintenance are pretty poor, and it's low top speed in combat configs means it will lose jousts it gets into if it doesn't have numerical superiority.

 

 

but yeah, fun round. please don't take 6mon before you run one again, blue flag is THE reason to play DCS imo.
