Great Server!!! Full simulation

[=IS=308]

yes unlimited planes and no locked loadouts...we dont want to beat anybody...we just want to fly to our liking

Great!

Hi there!

 

DavidRed, it's just a suggestion, but don't you think it would be a good idea to add a third airfield per faction, a little bit far back on both side of Kalach map for exemple (and Kalach-like maps). It would be good to maintain a bit of air superiority on our airfields when 6 planes come vulchuring. A kind of emmergency backup airfield.

 

I think it would be really usefull when we're 20+ on the server.

 

Thank you for reading me.

 

See you in game!

personally i see no problem with  that. will talk to diesel about it....currently though i have a problem to start the missions at all...i get approximately a 1000 errors when loading the mission...

[Guest deleted@1562]

Too bad, was thinking about buying BoM and fly a Bf-110 on your server. Hope you fix it soon!

[DenHell]

fixed

[Y-29.Silky]

Oh my God.
No GPS, you actually have to navigate.

The objectives aren't spread 100km apart.

You don't get exhausted by having to fly 3 straight hours to finish a mission.

Gumrak is acutally used!

The AAA feels a little excessive. There's too much Flak and it is very, very thick, which is cool but seems out of place over tank columns for an example and you'll even receive flak over your own objective.

Anyways...

 

 

This Is The BEST Server Ever!!!!!!!

^^ thx

 

thx to Diesel, i was testing a new mission with him today...gotta say, i love what he is doing, and i think the new mission, which will hopefully be finished this week (no pressure Diesel), will be awesome.

[StG77_Kondor]

Great server!

 

Is there a dedicated TS for the server? I haven't flown on the server in a few days, so I haven't been able to check if one is included in the mission brief.

[Gump]

FL... there is a "friendly fire" issue that a bomber gets if a gunner gets injured somehow. had it happen a few times during a session. 1st time i dropped a 500lb bomb on a dive bomb run and was a good distance away before it exploded... anyways, i can understand that i might be the cause of a gunner injury if he catches some bomb effect, but getting a "friendly fire" charge, and points zero'd out is a bit of a harsh penalty.

Yep, a common TS server for sure will be a great idea to build a community around the server and fly well and in team.

 

By the way Diesel and DavidRed, let us know if there some way to help you maintain the server by giving some coins from time to time.

My friend and wingman has opened up his TS server for anyone that is flying on the Flying Legends server. 

A special section with rooms has been created for all those that like to join. 

 

He mentioned this before but I think it slipped through unnoticed. 

 

Here is the info to the TS server

IP: 46.108.39.38

PW; There is none :D

Stick to the IL-2 channels + sub channels to find each other. 

The server owner is f1v3 and I am an admin if anyone needs to ask something. 

If the number of users grows then I or f1v3 will increase the number of rooms.

Yes. Please join there if you are flying on this server.

 

We had a blast last night

Yeah! That was damn funny.

Yeah! I had so much fun last night. Thanks for the well spend time guise! :-)

Nice evening for me yesterday, the larger maps are just awesome! Many thanks!

[Asgar]

Since i saw multiple people asking if there is  TS server. Maybe Discord would be an alternative. You can create servers for free and it provides text as well as voice channels. So people can report problems with the server or suggestions in the  text channels and join the voice channels to fly together

The one shared by BHH above works pretty well.  

[JGr2/J5_W0LF-]

Sorry I didnt see it posted anywhere but can you have custom skins in this server. I like using historical skins. Thanks

Friday evening, bombing Marinovka airfield, catched 2 unlucky fighters on the ground. 

 

 

 

 

[F/JG300_Gruber]

Hi !

 

I tried the server yesterday and liked it a lot ! 

Nice objectives settings with a lot of ground targets so it was really fun. 

 

For some reason a lot of players were disconnected at once (maybe half of them or more), I didn't remember at wich time exactly though, you maybe want to check for this.

 

Also for the mission makers, we had some "vulching issues", with the bases very close from each other. So you may want to increase AAA level. 

I personally didn't got shot down because I was already flying somewhere else but some people from 2 squadrons started to yell at each other.

So even if it is not very common, discouraging it would help keeping a nice atmosphere on the server. 

 

 

Anyway, great server, I'll definitely come back !

[Ala13_Super6_1]

As suggestion I would leave more distance between the bases and objectives to navigate calm and able to catch up to level attacks.

For me right now it is the best server there.

the disconnect happend after the player count doubled (and the server was completely full), because the WoL crashed. So i guess the server was practically ddos'd because people kept trying to join. (just my guess)

Vulching is an inevitability when trying to maintain the closeness of the bases to the action and it isn't really a problem. Accept that it'll happen occasionally and you're fine. Switch bases too.

I was on the server last night and as it was something like 27+ axis and 8 allied I joined the allied in the north base to keep the spirit of balancing the sides and before I rolled on down the runway was promptly vulched by one of the -IRRE- boys ( no disrespect intended to-IRRE- ) . There was one other base that also had an enemy in the zone so not much point to swap so I left.

 

I know  it happens I was just peeved that someone felt it was worth doing when the sides were so unbalanced in the first place, maybe I got out of the wrong side of the bed but personally I would have left that tactic for a busy server.

[9./JG27DavidRed]

about the disconnects....guys, we are in the process of starting to rent a server machine.right now the server is a machine placed in the basement of a good friend...we hope that with a better machine and especially 1000Mbit/s we can solve at least few of the current issues experienced online...we are a very small group, and no doubt it will be expensive for us....but we love this sim and discussed  that its worth it.

I think most of them were flying the 110 though so if you'd taken a VVS fighter you would have probably mopped up

 

We flew the i-16 a few times

[6./ZG26_Emil]

Vulching has a whole world of debate that it drags around with it. I agree it well always be there on an open server, just because there will always be people who get their kicks from it. However a couple of points:

 

I like coordinated attacks on bases by ground attack aircraft, or fighters who have lugged bombs over. They are awesome to witness as the victim, and add value to combat when defending.

 

Vulching bombers on the ground is frustrating. It takes time to start up, taxi, wait for colleagues. If a guy in a lone fighter, zaps in and simply pings an engine you have to start over, or swap to a fighter, or potentially leave. Even if you make it into the air you become the target for a suicidal vulcher and as above its restart time. This has a knock on effect of reducing the number of ground pounders and increasing fighter bias. This server has seen some nice formations and attacks on objectives, it would be a shame to lose this.

 

The closeness of bases can inadvertently lure you in to attacking people who have barely taken off. I've done it, I've been over an objective, seen a low bogey, turned in, then only later seen that they have barely left the airfield. Flying an La5 it takes me ages to get height and temps down. During this time, even doing circles I'm sure I can often be seen by people near the objectives. Flying axis another time on one of the maps you could see virtually all the way to home base from the river, therefore anyone can be seen and attacked with an easy advantage.

 

Yes this is 'war' and entertainment, but a third rear base would at least give the option for people to take their time, and perhaps avoid the worst of any vulching. It might be interesting to see how many would use such a base?

 

Some servers in the old IL2 would say 'No Vulching' but allow airfield attacks by bombers. I think most people agree single engine fighters strafing other fighters on the ground is a bit lame.

[von_Tom]

So, add another base further behind the lines.  Job done.

[ACG_Smokejumper]

Server crashed when full. Multiplayer overload it said.

 

What happened?

 

 

Enjoy the server by the way!

Just saw the endless vulch debate.

 

Take off farther away if you hate it. Someone will always do it especially new people. Also our idea of vulch is differ pilot to pilot. Wheels up I will shoot at you guilt free.

 

If I just dropped a bomb I will shoot until my ammo is gone or you stop spawning whichever comes first. That is so I can escape. I just bombed you I'm not just going to feed you a kill by trying to run.

 

 

The other side of this is some of the most fun I've had in combat flight sims is taking off under fire. Don't take that from me.

[F/JG300_Gruber]

At least there could be a few AAA guns on the airfields I saw none so far. Two aircrafts vulching on each airfield and the whole team is paralized until they get out of ammo.

 

I'm not against a few suicide raids sometimes or an organized airfield attack, but as it is, this is just encouraging braindead vulching, and that will piss of a lot of people and do more harm than good IMHO.

[IRRE_Rolluptito]

Yeah. It's happening a lot. I seriously think that we need a third airfield far back, and some AAA guns on the front airfields...

+1

I was vulched yesterday 5 or 6 times and it is not right

Vulching must be a dangerous thing, but now it is unpunished

sorry for my English

Third airfield and AAA on the front Airfields implemented. (Battle on the Don Map)

Spent an hour yesterday evening on your server and had lots of fun with the Bf-110. Thanks for your work!

[[DBS]Prody]

ok, i was ranting a bit some time ago on the Wings topic about locking larger bombs for He111 but.... i joined Fighting Legends yesterday took 2x1800 kg bombs , spend some 20 min to climb to 4000 m , bombed a soviet location to pieces and scored 79 bomb-points . The server was almost full, nobody bothered me, i returned safely after . Now...it certainly felt good but i'm not sure the danger posed by large bombs will encourage people to defend their objectives
