Question: When setting up a squad on the server...Is this a one time action? Or, is it required to set it up for every map rotation? Thanks.

[KG200_Volker]

Rebuild the squad when new mission loads, quitting and rejoining the same mission retains the squad.

[216th_Lucas_From_Hell]

Two bugs today, both at Illarionovskiy. I had 456 supply points and I did two successful flights (one with Pe-2, one with LaGG-3) but neither of them gave me a new plane. Every time I hit FINISH FLIGHT I got a canceled flight message despite landing the aircraft well and stopping the engines by the runway as usual.

 

 

Also, at the same airfield, the objects were entirely misplaced. It was as if things were at the wrong airfield. For example, see the hangars with Pe-2s in the middle of a field.

We have some troubles with commander today. I add planes for you manually.

Ran into the same, Lucas.

 

It was too funny- someone was complaining on chat about the resupply not working. P3z and I thought, "we've heard this before..." thinking it was user error, so p3z tried to explain how to do a supply flight. Not sure what happened to the guy, but then I went and did a supply flight, only to get Flight Canceled, and man we felt silly for insisting the supply system worked fine to that other pilot

I dont know if that was your case but, sometimes the genarator puts enemy ground unis in yours team teritory, when you see this do not hit them! They are recorginized as "friendlies" even if they shoot at you. It looks similar to this on the map:

Gentlemen, I like DED server very much, one of my favourite ones. I wonder if it wouldn't be better to fly supply missions in 1:1 rating, it sometimes seems more people are flying supply missions than combat missions actually. It would be also logical, you replace what you lost. Say 250 points for a fighter, more for something bigger. You would have enough points for 2 single engine planes and points would be subtracted every time you fly a plane and returned if you land safely (or partially returned for damaged planes), if you don't have enough points you have to run a supply mission to get a plane. It would be also easier, because if you lose Ju88 you take it for a supply mission. Not a bad idea? It would promote flying, wouldn't it? And people would still take care of their planes. And if you damage your plane to 80% with emergency landing you could still get 20% back, for your effort  . 

[KoN_]

I have to agree , with the game and maybe the server being some what buggy and the lost of a aircraft too the AAA if flying alone ` when server almost empty , i tend to be flying more supply then actually flying and the status being broken some days ago  . I have flown seven supply runs , six with He111 and one with 110 , been killed once  yet when i join i have no planes , so if i have flown six He111 at 350 points and been flying mission and got kills and ground kills and landed surly that adds points too . 

Now i could be moaning here , but i think we don`t need more restrictions on top of what we already have to endure . My 2p .

Noticed also that i have destroyed ten friendly ground targets ....???????  very strange .

Hello! I write here because I can not find another place to do it.

 

I wonder if there is any Server Admin available to take away one ban .. 

 

We were three 110s to bomb a warehouse, shot without delay fuze and died, the other 110s were unharmed ... I immediately ban for 167 hours 55 min ...

 

not a bit exaggerated?

Any chance of removing the ban?

 

Thank you very much for this great server.

I agree that suply missions take up more than it should from our precious time.

 

Another idea is to give more points for escorting bombers. This will make more people to fly in squads, and fighter planes actually cover them instead of using them as baits. This points dont need to be in stats page.

 

Flying time suply points. Its allready done in Tactical Air War, For every x-mins of flying and return to base safe x-points are given to the pilot.

 

From my chair is easy to propose ideas I know. All this are said with high respect to the team that goes through the dificult efort to keep all this going, thank you guys.

 

P.S. If technically possible please make squadrons permanent.

[IRRE_Genius]

Hi,

 

First sorry for my poor english. 

 

Some suggestions:

 

- Can you make recon less "automatic" (actually appear when fly over sector) => need to return to base to activate target and icon (or make a mix for example: light target = automatic / hard target = need to return to base) ?

- Make the target icon only visible for your side. The over side can only see your objective when attacked for the first time and/or after a timer of X minutes. Maybe one exception: for hard/high value target (each team can see icon at the beginning of the mission to defend)

=> this two previous points because is like a "radar" for ennemy fighter

- Can you add some AI when low player (mix of bomber and fighter) ?

- i like the idea of Wolf_Ettel to have supply with a 1:1 ratio (if you supply a bomber = 500 points => you can have 1 bomber or 2 fighter / if you destroy a fighter = - 250 pt / if you crash a bomber = -500 pt) 

 

Thanks for your hard works !

Flying bombers is near suicide , as i have found out . Just cannon fodder there is hardly any 109s protecting bomb runs . All you Eric Hartman the fight is with the bombers . This is supposed to be a team based server .

Try to become a part of a squad so you can be on coms with them and fly bomber with cover. Check the squads thread in the forum so you might find one there to join. Edited June 17, 2016 by KG200_Volker

Yesterday I flew solo ju87 to furthest target, and damaged him quite a lot, then i returned to home airfield and land succesfully, you must not take the direct route, go around climb to high alt (or stay at ground, depends what you fly), pick distant targets, then you got a chance even solo

 

Also, question for devs, is Moscow coming any time soon  ?

Edited June 17, 2016 by I./JG1_Deschain

[216th_Lucas_From_Hell]

Oh, but it isn't so simple, Deschain! My last Pe-2 flight went well - I sneaked around and bombed a river crossing and took heading home. Out of sheer stupidity instead of hiding in the cloud cover I went slightly below it. Lo and behold close to the frontlines two Bf-109s latched themselves onto me and that was that. It's a hard business, though a pleasant one either way.

[I./JG1_Deschain]

Well ofc it isnt, but folowing this, you have highest chance however lot of bombing missions ends in flames, thats just the way it is, for bigger chance of safe return you need to group up

In my point of view I have absolutely no interest in fighters, and your description about being a bomber pilot is accurate and the reason for I left public servers  for many moons ago. 

Unfortunately there are no help joining a squad if your squad is not flying. But when I did fly public servers , I did it in this server

Hello everyone

It happened to me several times, destroy my plane, jump and shoot my paratrooper.

 

I think this action is cowardly, there is no honor in it.

Guys...

 

/rant_on

 

I'm banned for a week because of an accident.  My wing man got too far behind me on an attack run and was killed by my bomb blast.  I understand what you are trying to do here, but a week ban?

 

I need a break, I don't always want to fly on Wings of Limitations (or is it Liberty?) but now I am forced to.  Not to mention that this was my first mission back from a previous week ban for accidentally dropping a bomb on a friendly target that I couldn't find on the map (and that was extremely close to the enemy target I was looking for).  Now maybe bad navigation got me in that one, but to have my first mission back from a week ban result in a week ban from another accident is getting a little out of hand.

 

/rant_off

 

Is there anyway I can have my ban lifted?

[216th_Lucas_From_Hell]

To shine a light onto the issue, the standard one week instead of one day ban was instituted by the developers, not the server. It was a placeholder they created during the brief 'cheating epidemic' that hit Wings of Liberty, because that way the players and admins were able to ban cheaters for a whole week instead of just a day, thus discouraging them.

 

The friendly fire ban here is in place to prevent the kind of hooliganism that happens on Wings of Liberty as well, where people go and shoot at friendlies for 'stealing kills' and other nonsense.

 

From personal experience (and I've done this a lot), whenever it happens just post here and within 24 hours it's all fixed.

 

To the DED and 72AG members working on the server, perhaps you can ease or do away with the friendly fire ban? I don't think I've ever seen actual friendly fire on the server, only isolated incidents of wingmen getting caught in the blast. Either way, good job running this

I started to fly the bombers as there were so many fighters ` all fighting over one enemy and yet no targets were getting destroyed or the bombers were getting shot down . Missions were ending still with targets in place . This month i am doing JaBo and most of the time ive not made it back home , with all the so called 109 pilots kicking around i didn't see anyone near our mission objectives . Yet look at the stats that mission there is no air kills ...?? , so is there problems with the stat reports or our LW pilots  . ..     ..maybe i am too used to working with teams and rely on a good wingman . 

[-IRRE-Roland_DeLaPoype]

BIG sorry !

I made a huge mistake reading the map and straffed friendly ground targets. It was not my intention...

Now am banned for a week (deserved, I'll look more carefully in the future).

sorry again !

And congratulations for the amazing work setting up this server. Lovin'it !

[SYN_Mugue]

I think someone is running a hack on the server. A few minutes ago, all the Russian targets reported being under attack at the very same instant, and all showed "discovered" on the game map.

 

Pretty good coordinated attack considering there where only 6 or 8 Germans online!!! And not all of those where ground pounding...

 

 

Hope you can fix it.

 

Cheers!

[FTC_Blaky]

Which map? What time of the server? I was flying from 4 pm GMT+1 to 7 pm GMT+1 and later from 9 GMT+1 to 11 GMT+1, I haven't found anything strange. We were trying to fly recon flights and discovered a lot of targets, destroying some of them. Make a screenshot or record when you have suspicion. Please, don't post undocumented accusations. At the time of your post we tried to find targets in two areas, but they were concentrated in the third one, so they were discovered very fast, but you could be talking about different map/time.

Edit: I dunno if it is possible, but may be server admins could give small amount of points for discovering targets (yeah I want more points  ), but it could track this thing - if anyone discovers all of them at the same time... he should be reported to Devs... and banned permanently...

Thank you.

[SYN_Mugue]

@II./JG53_Wolf_Ettel,

 

Please don't take this the wrong way mate, but,  Why are you break'n my balls here? It happened. If the server admins want to see if they can find something, it would be logged ~3-5 minutes before my previous post. Sorry I didn't get the map name,...

 

This was not one, or four or even eight targets discovered, it was every possible target of the Russian team, all over the map, all at one time.(Remember only 8 players max flying German) It seemed very suspect so I reported it. So ease up on the undocumented part. A witness report IS a document. I was just trying to help keep things clean.

send a PM to the host of the server maybe they will look into it , as you have said thy have records and logs on server . 

[216th_Lucas_From_Hell]

You're probably looking too deep into it - the server controller has had a few bugs in some missions this week. These include misplaced airfields, supply points going through the roof (as it is I have 3 planes and some 700 supply points), target detection not working, airfields showing up as under attack for hours with no enemy aircraft in sight.

 

Most likely something misfired and when one target was found, all of them popped up. Alternatively, all the targets were found over time but only showed up at the same time, which can happen.

 

Think logically, there is virtually no way somebody can go and mark all targets as visible for everyone from their computer unless they somehow broke into into the computer that is hosting the server and manipulated the server from there, which is ludicrous.

[SYN_Mugue]

Well I have no way of knowing what's possible tbh. With computers almost anything seems possible if someone wants to try hard enough... That said, Lucas, you're probably right. Honestly, I'm not/was not trying to create a panic or freak anyone out. I saw something strange and thought I'd be a good virtual-citizen and point it out. (guess I did use the "H" word, so sorry if this is the cause of the tizzy I seem to have ignited.)

 

I like this server very much and just wanted to help.
