Rothko 4 Posted January 13 Hello All! I was wondering if there was a way you could change the sortie requirement for promotion on the Co-Op Campaign. As of now it feels really low and my friends and I are getting promoted way too quickly! Thanks in advance :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Firenz 0 Posted January 13 I would also be interested in knowing the values for promotion rate/number of sorties required and whether we can edit them . We have started a co-op campaign in Moscow and have flown 26 sorties by January 1942. There's some concern that we'll have a squadron full of Majors by the time we get to 1943! Does anyone know where this info is hiding in PWCGBoS folders? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Criteria vary from country to country. Edited January 13 by PatrickAWlson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No I could use some feedback on what you are experiencing, especially what country you are flying for in what role. As part of 11.9.0 I have raised several criteria for the LW, but not yet for other services. I am willing to look at other services as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We are playing German Fighter unit in the Battle of Moscow Campaign and we plan to complete our campaign in Germany, 1945. We thought it would be neat for us to have promotions to look forward to later in the war but the 10-25-60-100 sortie requirements are being met really quickly by a lot of us and some of us have gone from Obfw. to Olt. in less than 3 months of game time. So we were just wondering if we can increase the requirements to slow our progress and spread it across 1941 - 1945. As always thank you so much for all your work in the PWCG, it really makes the game so much fun for us Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PatrickAWlson 5216 Posted January 14 If you are playing German I have pretty much doubled the number of missions for advancement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That change has not been rel4eased yet. I noticed the same thing. Everybody in my unit was a Hauptmann in no time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
