Cant wait :D ETS Pod is set to Go :D

[Fudd]

I am excited also!! This will be the largest community event yet!!

[EvilBivol-1]

I'm not too familiar with previous LOCERFs, so maybe it's already been discussed, but how do you think players will feel about implementing some rules designed to enhance the BVR fight? I'm thinking of making it illegal to ET-snipe and fly under, say, 50m. (150 ft.), at least for fighters.

[Frostie]

Im not sure thats a good idea , once you start with one rule it could get out of hand like ~ no chaff because its overmodeled, no maddogs because its overmodeled, no ECM because its fubarmodeled etc.

[GGTharos]

There's nothing wrong if you have a few simple rules ... there's already 'no ecm blinking' rules, I'm sure ;)

 

Not using chaff (or restricting its use as to how fast it can be dropped - so macros for everyone ... realistic and easy to handle methinks - or plain no using chaff when a missile is ahead of your 3-9 line), restricting flight to above 50m (unless landing or crashing) would basically fix up the majority of issues for BVR.

 

The rest pretty much need to be adjusted in game because it is too painful

to remember things about it in the heat of battle - ie. low-flying aircraft should suffer from reduced radar range due to sidelobe reflection from the ground, and other fun things. Visibility/LODs also needs adjusting. This is effectively stuff you can't 'fix' with a rule. But the above simple ones - easy enough.

[Laud]

If the mission is well designed (which most have been) you're dead if you fly below 3000m! ;)

[Grimes]

I don't recall seeing anyone flying under 50m in any redflag unless they are landing. And I can attest to Lauds comment, flying below 3000m is a pretty bad idea. bloody avengers.

[EvilBivol-1]

Okay, thanks, didn't know that.

When will be next LOCERF?

[RvETito]

When the mod staff figures out the server issue.

[RvEYoda]

I read in 3sqn forums (3sqn.com) that they are working on a permanent solution to the red flag server problems. They seem to be putting together a monster machine there :)

Regardless, LOCERF 07-5 will go on December 15th at 0600zulu.

 

Mission Breifings will be posted NLT 7 December. The mission will be changed slightly from last time to ensure that it is fair. This will allow you a little over a week to plan.

 

Please post over at the 159th if you have any questions.
