Right now the only thing this red indicator tells you is "dont start at all since you will be smoked it you do".
This is not called "fog of war"?

 

IRL, you don't spawn on the parking wearing a plane. You would be able to use your eyes to see what the situation looks like in the sky before getting in your plane.

 

In the game, this can be emulated, kinda. In the mission editor, the mission designer can specify a "default" observer cam for each airfield, which are available using the spectate button. You can even make these cameras faction-specific, so that they can't be used to spy on you enemy (although that could be made into a feature, especially now that player counts at airfields are no longer available).

What the indicator is telling me is: you don't have to look for enemies to take down, they gladly came to you :)

In real life if your airfield is under attack and you don't take off the division commander will call your regiment leader to scold him for not sending any planes up; he will then take it to the squadron leader who ultimately will shout and rain hell on the pilots who didn't take off. If this is the second instance or more you may see someone losing their command or being court-martialled.

Ah, but who said anything about not taking off? I just mentioned seeing what the situation looks like before taking off. But of course, in the end you take off. I assure you it's not like me to incite to cowardice, comrade. Not at all.

Today I was killed and I respawned, I was told I had to take a unarmed supply plane and refill my stock or I would get kicked. I took a PE 2 marked Supply had about 35 % fuel and no bombs and got the same message. I ignored it since I had a unarmed Supply plane and then I got kicked.

I like your server. What did I do wrong? should I have had full % fuel? Or is it a bug?

This is a bug.We are now trying to fixt it. There are times when sapply not counted. Must necessarily be taken suply without armament. If supply armament will be taken, the server will kick away.

Congratulations, you have created an expert server without assistance of any kind and that rewards the pilot's life.

Now it is for me the best server to fly and move tanks. :good:

I've not been getting much of an opportunity to fly lately. When I do it's not for very long, so the DED Normal server with mouse mode has been great to jump in and fly a sortie or two.

When I have more time later this month. I can break out my newly modded g940 again and jump in the Expert. But I have grown quite fond of the Normal server and it's participants.

 

My question is: Do you have any intention to bring this whole idea to the Normal server too? 

I realise with icons on etc some things will not quite work as well as it would on the Expert server, but it would still be great to see the online war come to the icon server too.

 

:fly:

Cheers,

Hippy.

The idea is good, but not now. Currently, we are focused on it to complete the Expert server. After completion of the Expert server, let us think what next to do.

Would it be possible to restrict the player to taking the supply plane instead of just telling him to do it? I missed the message yesterday, and for a while I wondered why I got kickban.

Thanks for the reply. I can understand you wanting to get it all setup first. 

 

I do hope you consider it!

I don't have any problem reading the messages, but it's true sometimes a few of them just show on the screen with a thousand other messages (when someone bombs a place, for example).

 

Maybe for the restock message you can change the color of the player's name ro red or green or something quite visible. I don't even know if it's possible ingame.

Hi friends! New features on our server! Now you can join the squad.


You must enter ALL commands in team chat (by press ctrl+enter)


 


Here is a list of available commands that can be used by the squad leader:


"sq SQUAD_NAME start" - to create a squad.


"sq SQUAD_NAME end" - to disband the squad.


"sq SQUAD_NAME ok" - to add to the squad those players who send the request.


"sq SQUAD_NAME del Player_name" - to delete player (by name) from squad. You could enter only player name without squad tag. For example  "sq SQUAD_NAME del Zlodey will delete player  -DED-Zlodey.

 

And here is list for squad member:

"sq SQUAD_NAME req" - player request to join the squad

"sq SQUAD_NAME leave" - player request to leave the squad

 

And the last command for today is "status". This command will allow you to know a number of aircraft and the player score.

 

Have a nice day and we with you a good flight on our server. 

 

And here you can find the statistics. But please remember it's all at WIP

Good flights.

Thank you.

 

Personally I would like to see the airfields spaced farther apart on the maps please, and please stop ability of airfield AAA respawn. Once it is destroyed it should remain destroyed. It is not fun at all to go through all the work to attack and destroy the AAA guns only to have them simply respawn again.

 

Also, for airfield proximity I'm taking off from my own airfield and coming under AAA attack from enemy airfields as soon as I'm airborn?

Stalingrad autumn map there is something like 48 AAA guns concentrated at front lines.

 

So there is little room on the map where both sides meet to dogfight (that's why we join the server) that does not resemble skies over Berlin during B-17 raid with very heavy AAA and aircraft get shot down before even having a chance to engage in a dogfight.

 

Please consider it.

Not so good tonight guys, there is a pattern developing  on the server.  Folks are hovering en masse just out of flak range waiting for aircraft to take off and then ramming into them. Great server, crappy tatics.

Just a quick heads up on the normal sever stats: http://1cgsnormal.ru:8080/en/

 

Several of the -DED- Normal regulars have tried to access the stats page and it's failing to load. This morning I finally got the page to load and received the following message:

 

"1cgsnormal.ru
This domain has expired"

 

I just wanted to say thankyou to -DED- for making this server available and for the fun we have on there. For many players this is a really good way into the multiplayer experience, and for even more players (who find their level at normal difficulty) this has become our online home for Il-2.

 

None of my friends are full realism enthusiasts, and being able to pick up a casual game whenever we want with players of the same level has been a really positive experience for us all.

 

My friends in RL and two of my kids are regulars on your normal server and being able to see their progress (and mine) from from hopeless flak-fodder to grizzled veterans has really added value to that experience.

 

Is it likely (or even possible) that the normal server stats will be reinstated or will find a new home any time soon?

 

From England with Love,

 

JR :salute:

It's probably fair to say at this point that it's been at the heart of the normal difficulty game for many players.

 

The depth of gameplay and fast-food feel of combat have been great for new players and are enjoyed by many regulars.

 

Will this server return, or is the normal game moving on? It looks like I slept through the debate on this :blush: for which I'm sorry as the normal difficulty game is where all my friends (IRL) and favourite foes are at.

 

I presumed a few days ago that ICGS Normal had been wound up. Is this the case? If so, does the normal game find it's home on Random Normal?

 

I'm not in the way of progress, I just want to know where I live in the game :salute:

There's a whole bunch of normal difficulty players (including your's truly) who will be really happy to hear this news! :friends:

Hi,

does anybody knows which is the updated normal server statistics address? The old one appears to be offline.

Thanks
