GGTharos Posted July 1, 2007 Posted July 1, 2007 Anyway, aside from this hot-lane thing, Ice makes a point (though not clearly) that you should *look* before entering a runway to make sure that there isn't an aircraft about to land on you. The guy might not be able to abort, or he might be in a mood and decide to land on you ;) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda
Cosmonaut Posted July 1, 2007 Posted July 1, 2007 Landing on the BC happens all the time IRL, but it generally won't happen while the rest of the world is landing ILS. That brings back painful memory's of a flight I once did in FS9 from London to the south of Spain. It was completely fogged in and I was vectored in on the Back Course but I completely forgot and couldn't understand why my ILS was leading me astray, then I lost orientation and well lost the flight arrgg.. :doh: Oh well how much does an A320 cost anyway :pilotfly: . As for the runway issue well for me the runway is sacred ground and even crossing it while taxiing should be done efficiently even if the runway isn't in use. Personally I reload on a taxiway that's out of the way or on the Ramps and I don't refuel/ rearm while "Holding short of runway". I think that area is for those that are "ready to go" and there's no point in holding others up with things that should have been done at the gate or while pushing back but you really have to work around what some servers allow and what some players just do.. I try to follow real world procedures and it works for the most part but some players can make that a little dangerous. :mad: Cozmo. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Minimum effort, maximum satisfaction.

Ice Posted July 1, 2007 Author Posted July 1, 2007 We are working building a new stats board specifically for ground attack. If you have trouble finding a unit. A little recon before take off using F11 and padlock key. It can help you find a target.
Camoman Posted July 1, 2007 Posted July 1, 2007 And where is that pesky bmp shooting people at sochi alder hiding? Scored a kill on him with my eagle cannon the other nite. He was on the airfield itself which is the last place I looked. Just on the grass on the other side if the runway to the ramp. And a little out to the seaward side from halfway..until it gets moved. /0 =IronAngels= Http://www.ironangelslockonsquad.com Iron Angels Lockon Squad Iron Angels: The Proud, The Few, The Elite

I didn't know that was possible in lockon! :pilotfly: DCS Wishlist: 1) FIX THE DAMN RIVERS!!! 2) Spherical or cylindrical panorama view projection. 3) Enhanced input options (action upon button release, etc). 4) Aircraft flight parameter dump upon exit (stick posn, attitude, rates, accel, control volume, control-surface positions, SAS bias, etc). 5) ADS-33 maneuver courses as static objects. 6) Exposed API or exports of trim position and stick force for custom controllers. 7) Select auto multiple audio devices
hitman Posted July 1, 2007 Posted July 1, 2007 Its possible but you have to have mad l337 skillz, dawg. Basically you just walk the tracer fire to the target.

Ice Posted July 1, 2007 Author Posted July 1, 2007 Ice question about the stats server you have, why don't ground pounder count on the stats. But if I get shot down by a avenger that counts as a loss? And where is that pesky bmp shooting people at sochi alder hiding? Answerd Here
