Regarding the DED server

Does anyone know if the DED guys have a website? I tried asking while flying over there but no replies. There are two things I wanted to address/ask. 

 

First, they seem to have implemented a capture the flag mode. The Russian aircraft are able to move to the rearmost airfields and turn them (at least the AAA). Is it possible for the German aircraft to reverse the process or do the same to Russian airbases and how? It is an interesting mode and used elsewhere but not clear how to implement it from a user standpoint in this server.

 

Secondly, they have implemented air-starts at the forward bases. This is a terrible idea for several reasons. It allows guys to just pop into a fight without warning and jump guys at lower level. It takes away targets for ground attack aircraft. I'm mostly learning Jabo work now as I got bored with pure dogfighting. (I know - expert servers, expert servers, expert servers) While the servers are (increasingly) well populated the fun factor has significantly diminished. No one (other than me and a couple of guys) are going to ground start in a DF server dozens of km from the front. No one wants to get jumped by someone suddenly appearing through the worm hole either.

 

Lots of guys gaming it too. If they are losing a fight they just pop out then reappear above you fifteen seconds later.

 

It was the best, or at least most populated, Normal server until ten days ago.

i would say... you need to translate that into russian, so might it be worth a shot visiting the russian forums to provide that piece of feedback?

If I spoke Russian I would have asked while in the server. I was hoping someone here knows the DED guys or an English speaking DED guy might see this.

Google for it :)

 

They also talk english, at least I managed to exchange a few messages once ....

 

They are expert La5 and Yak1 operators :)  I couldn't get much success using any of the Bf109s or the 190 against them :-(

I would really welcome if theyd translate their messages and display em in Russian and english.

They way it is now non russians pretty much dont know what to do at all. Not very hospitable.

Thanks for the server!

Asking me & i'm try answered :)

About of airstart on novosokolniki&lapino on centere map, our mapmaker think about this start, 1 target: so its maps for dogfight, and usually center fields under attack, such as named voolch'ing. 2 target: new user's who not founders, and have not early access, remember your first start from airfield on lagg 3, drifting and circus movie? ;) But if you are want ground start, i say our mapmaker change it.

Sorry for my bad english :) im tying

Mission stalingrad

About capture the airfield:

Players have 2 possibles

1. Capture airfield, only 1 capture on 1 airfield, recapture is not possible

For the capture airfield you are must fly lower 10 meters from start side airfield to end side airfield- if succes, taaddam! You side captured field and all ground units near airfield (AAA, static object's)

2. Destroy airfield, we must destroy allbarrels on airfield/ or some static aircrafts and barrels, if succes, taaddam! Airfield enemy side destroyed

If your team destroyed or captured 4 enemy fields, your team win and server restarting new nap

Thanks for responding and your English is fine. I do recommend no air starts at the forward bases for the reasons stated. As many rear bases as air start as you want is fine. Rear air starts are good for avoiding vulching and bomber starts.

 

I appreciate the capture the flag mode. It's interesting. Thanks for the info.
