Statistics of the 51st PVO Regiment Server

[Cali]

Every account I heard form real pilots is that they prefer using it over the sidwinder. The AMRAAM is NOT weak at WVR. Infact in many ways it is superior.

 

Air forces train their pilots and have different tactics. What I heard was mixed about the 2.

[Pilotasso]

It may also has to do with the fact that AIM-9Li is the version of the sidwinder we (still) use.

That very well could be it, I know our pilots like the AIM-9's. And with the new X, it's even better. The JHMCS is in a strange place in the pit, I would of thought it would be in front of the pilot, but it's not. Pilotasso, ask them if they had better AIM-9's like the M's and X's which one would they use then?

OFF TOPIC:

I don't have time to found the thread about the F-15C all 120 loadout, but here are some good pictures. Shows the 120 on both outer and inner pylon stations.

For historical reference, I've placed the FC1.12 stats fro the 51st server back online at http://www.51st.org/fc1stats/

 

These stats run from February 2009 to the end of March 2010 and contain over 20 thousand air-to-air kills, and almost 44 thousand air-to-ground kills. During this period, 3280 pilots flew for over 16 thousand hours on our server.

Holly freakin virtual pilots Batman! Thanks for the link.

I find the number restriction on the aim-120/R-77/ER-27/Aim-7/ET/aim-9/R-73. As a very challenging and a good way to see at it more then just run spam and have fun game, By implementing number restriction on missiles. Pilots who only use 8xAIM-120 or 6xR-77, will have to load instead two aim-7s and two aim-9s to balance out the stock. I assume that would be needed if fighting a war we are.

 

Su-27 pilots dont run in to same problem as much, because we are using two ETs that balance the missile stock. If a Su-27pilot use all his ER-27 stock he can always start using R-27s . We all play by the same rulls, it applies for everyone so may the best pilot be on top of the 51st statsboard.

 

The best part is that now we can actually see who is most effective pilots and give them credits for it.

That all depends on how often someone flies in the server. 200 missiles is a lot to use. It is nice to see that there is a cap and it's not an everlasting supply.

[Pilotasso]

It introduces the notion of economics VS effectiveness, and that is interesting. Indeed it makes people think twice about using the best missiles all the time.

[Teknetinium]

Im glad you guys have positive attitude to it.

Case has done some wonderful things to the server and stats. With the AIM-9 working better in FC2 my fav loadout is the 4x2x2.

[104th_Crunch]

Imagine if the sim tracked your missiles over multiple mp sessions, then took them away from your weapon selection in the sim during multiplayer if you used them up. That would be sweet.

[Cali]

How much would you start with and how could they be reset? I don't think that would work very well, may even turn people away from mp.

A real blast from the past.

 

Man those were the times...

[Pilotasso]

Perhaps a merchant system like that of Strike commander, where after a positive score you could buy weapons, and perhaps different planes.

[Grimes]

An payload system would need to be in-place to easily allow or deny specific weapons or quantity of weapons as a player selects a loadout. One could add an economic system on-top of it which tracks weapon used across multiple variables. There wouldn't really be a "wrong" economic system to use, however one must consider the pros and cons of whatever is chosen. For instance a more realistic scenario would give a side X missiles to use at the start of a mission, and at Y time intervals a supply (virtual or physical) would deliver Z units of each weapon. However a large number of players will dwindle the supply at a greater rate, giving the possibility of running out of weapons. At which point players may choose to leave the server simply because they can't use a specific weapon for a set amount of time. Likewise a low populated server over a period of time will collect an absurd amount of weapons, giving players little reason to think smart with their weapons.

 

While it wouldn't be as realistic, a "limitless supply, limited resources" approach tends to work well in multiplayer. Think Counter-strike. But that requires monetizing pretty much everything in the entire game, which I do not believe is worth the effort.

That sounds really cool, on paper at least... :thumbup:

However, i reckon such a thing will be too complicated and not liked by some pilots who only fly single type of aircraft.

This is the problem though... there is no payload selection, apart from "rearm" in game... and i dont think that can be controlled in any reasonable way...
