Yes ... I got that too.

[JonRedcorn]

Was flying with some of the SCG guys and the lag was insane. Worst lag I've seen online in Il2. Planes that looked like they were going 200kph were really doing 400.

Sorry we missed you.  In your absence, however, we fought the good fight and prevented Axis from making any meaningful headway in spite of being outnumbered 4:1 at one point.

[=FSB=Man-Yac]

I really feel like campaigns are won overnight. Axis was on offensive entire day and struggled to get one airfield. I check server and we lost two during European night time.

 Exactly, I was diving on one i16 then attacked another one but both were like not moving , I overshoot both , relative speed was not right , it never happend before. I come back and attacked another one, already  pissed off and he  just hang in thin air and I ram him but he was ok , I just lost the prop .Sorry. One more thing those i16 don't even try to evade , like they never noticed me on 6 hehehe.

Being that Germany couldn't bring trains to Moscow due to the rail system using two different track widths, I'm going to assume Axis trains on the map represent captured Russian locomotives and carriages.

Looking back its hilarious that during that mission they destroyed 5 fewer ground targets than we did.

Not strange at all:

 

· I was kick from the server and now I’m banned from TAW on the servers list, why?

There is slot reservation system which is used sometimes by TAW developers StG2 and =LG= squadrons. To prevent from joining the server when no free slots are available players are temporarily banned. As soon as some free slots are available again all players are unbanned. If server has no more free slots then there is a message on the TAW main page above the map “Server is full!”. Please wait a while in that case.

It's obvious isn't it. Your reputation proceeded you and the server responded accordingly.

 

Not really.. just kidding. ?

I just registered for TAW. How do I get in on the action?

Make sure your registered name is identical to your forum/in-game name.  Check the original post to find the TAW TeamSpeak channel if you so desire.  Join comms with team mates. 

Join the TAW server when there's an open slot.  Keep your TAW pilot stats page handy to see what planes you can fly or have lost. 

 

edit: Reading the online manual - available on TAW main page - is a good idea too.

It's not my case it seems. I logged to the server few minutes ago, there were less than 10 players online. Still I was kicked form the server while I was selecting the plane and load when there was 60 player online (according to the in game server list).

It may have happened because you chose a plane you did not have in the hangar at your disposal. You have to check on the TAW website, which plane you can fly at the moment, before selecting the plane. Read the manual on the TAW website.

[=2ndSS=KRIS_]

Who to contact the second day for the first time knocked down two and planted on the landing from the server, today the same thing and knocked down on landing, while the Internet rate and ping a small? In addition, and the aircraft is selected this dishonestly

Someone know why nothing appear on the log of that flight? (there should be 2 air kills)

 

EDIT: A random bug (as usual on that game). It's working again after I reconnected on the server.

[JG1_Pragr]

OK, my connection issue is solved not. I just need to remove the network card from device manager and let the system installed it again. The game is working now properly it seems

[Chopper]

Looks like nobody is able to connect to the server at the moment:(

It does feel like theres either more of flak or its skill has been raised. Heavy flak, dunno about light.

Yesterday few guys like me was identified like banned at the moment of connection (red icon beside my callsign), and so immediatly kicked. But after several try (4 / 5 for me), it was ok... May be a little bug.

No it is not a bug. You guys ask a lot of questions about gameplay. All answers can be found in manual.

Question: What does CM NA mean?

CM NA = Combat Mission Not Available. Afaik that's what you get in the log when you have maxed your number of CMs and have no more plane slots to fill.

[Blackhawk_FR]

So you cumulate your CMs? Because when I ditched my E7 this afternoon my stock was still full after. 

[HR_Tumu]

Yes faucon, if u reached status of CM NA , next aircraft you lose was automatically resupply and CM starts to count.

Go Taiwan!!

[=IL2AU=chappyj]

having a lot of issues with sorties not recording properly or potentially (even worse) hits simply not actually doing anything.

 

just had an extended running battle with 2 09s at lotoshino where I shot and hit both of them on multiple occasions with the I16. 

 

yet.. 

http://taw.stg2.de/pilot_sortie.php?id=8871&name==IL2AU=chappyj

 

edit: now that i think of it...despite the multiple hits not once did they show actual damage. and i layed into one of them quite extensively.

This is strange. Did you smoke them or severely damage? Maybe there is no info in log files when hits didn't damage enemy aircraft. Or something was changed in the log files by the devs and script doesn't count some hits now.

[LeLv76_Erkki]

Same to me, on 2 sorties I hit a Pe-2 and made it smoke and leak fuel each time(letting it go because the rear gunner is pure murder) and the logs had nothing.

Happened to me also. 2 air kills, absolutely nothing on the log: http://taw.stg2.de/pilot_sortie.php?id=5505&name=F/JG300_Faucon

 

I disco/reconnected on the server and it worked on the following flight. 

[FTC_Knipser]

One of those wonderful TAW Moments.

[LeLv76_Erkki]

How can reds lose planes, especially considering the planeset, and pilots so quickly? Do they have more players now and extra losses are to flak or what?
