Operation "Blue Flag" - 24/7 PvP Campaign - ROUND 5

My only compliant is it's just before Valentine's day. That means Blue's most important player will be about 4 days late to the war. Rip Bluefor Round 5. :(

Didn't know Jefferey had gf.

:D

Keep 'em coming man, you are the funny guy here not me!

You say that whilst moaning about R-27T, that is as funny as it is sad.

 

Maybe Red should lose 27T if it's too hard for the hard up Blue, that 2 or 3 km extra range over the R-73 must be really tough to bare. Then maybe you can just manage with that extra 10km range the AIM-7 gets over the R-27R. Failing that i'm sure you could then start complaining that R-73 is unfair because of AIM-9. Then you could moan about turn rates get them tweaked and that should do it, then you'll have best radar, radar missiles, ir missiles, rwr, speed, fuel consumption and turn rates whilst Red have no advantages. Seriously is that the way you want it.

 

R-27T is unfair lmao.

I usually go with Aim9s only :D

But, I also only look for Greg in the Mi-8....

Keep 'em coming man, you are the funny guy here not me!

Let me put it tactically.

In a straight up scenario of 1v1 the F-15 will force the Su27 into a defensive position because of the AIM-7s longer legs - if he values his virtual life, this then allows the F-15 with his superior speed to chase down the Flanker and win. With the option of an R-27T even though it has very short legs it gives something that has a chance of stalling the Eagles press. Hence some semblance between aircraft other than just one holding all the aces.

Of course current missiles make this very hit and miss conidering chaff is very effective and flares even more so.

Unsure you really need to put it tactically. You are just dealing with a troll here. :P

Save it for the game cowboy!

Im saving all my 27Ts for Pikey, Bacon and Smudge:)

I will kill Maverick. :)

I will kill Maverick. :)

104th_Maverick has taken off from Kutaisi.

maverick was the only one who survived :D

after this excellent blue offensive towards beslan :)

OK many survivers( more than mav )...

THAT WAS A GREAT OFFENSIVE S!

I hope we bring this kind of motivation into the main event...

GL for blue flag 5

Yes! The intentional typo about the R-27T worked... :D

Talking about Typo....

Why is it called "blue"flag to begin with ? :D That's unfair for the poor Su-27 with their poor R-27T ... :D :D :D

Cant wait for the start tomorrow!

Blue...the end is nigh:)

Hey! VML is here!

I would like to say thank you to the SQD-373, SQD-Vodka, Deadbeef,Dominik Fishbed and all the rest whom I don`t remember the names for the nice teamplay yesterday!

My only wish is that the midnight blue fairies that come and ninja bases unopposed would stop so Red's would have absolutely nothing to moan about when we win the next round.

That'd be me a couple friends. Hey man, we aren't ninjas we just get on it eh evening US times and work effectively. Haha, calculated and coordinated strikes. I think my personal favorite was when we took MinVody, because it was the 373rd base, and the next day the dedicated squadron slots were removed... haha that's golden.

We were running for our lives :D

Slots in Vody are the same since round 2 as this specific airbase has not a capable number of available parking slots to host more than 1 squadron in.

Squadron slots were tweaked in other airbases to get more general slots free for both sides.

Haha, yeah yeah yeah. I'm kidding. No we appreciate the extra slots, really. Just a funny coincidence is all.

On the topic actually, how are the helicopter slots at airbase assigned? Just noticed a little lack of KA-50 slots at some airbases. Just every now and again.

Yes it was a coincidence...

:D

Airbases should have enough KA-50's to operate but will check again. If you notice specific airbases please let me know.

Team,

There seems to be some confusion around the group that I fly with regarding the repair timers. My understanding is this?:

When the last unit in a group is killed, a timer is added to a queue, where the length of the timer is a random figure between 15 and 30 minutes. The repair queue is processed in order and at the end of the timer, the whole group is repaired. Is this correct?

If this is the case, then I'd ask that the scripts are reviewed as there is some repeated suggestion that groups are re spawning in less than 10 minutes; below the minimum for the quoted repair time. I have seen no evidence of this myself, but I've heard it mentioned enough times that it's a concern.

Cheers,

Ash

Yes this is how it works (or it should until we see the opposite :D)

For example in airbases there are 5x groups (Interceptors, Bunkers, SAM, EWR, Ground units).

If you destroy the EWR group completely (it is consited by 3 units) then it enters the repair queue. When EWR's group gets first in the queue it will get repaired after 15-30mins.

Will check it later to see if everything is ok. Thanks again.

As I said in a post in another thread, I had 2 fuel bunkers repair in under 10 minutes last night.

Was a bit frustrating to be truthful :/

Perfect, thanks Greg

-

Let me make it all clear how the repair works, and why sometimes the repair groups and times can be confusing.

Apart from what Greg said, there are 2 special conditions to the repair.

1. When someone brings a repair/refuel crate to an Aerodrome/FARP/City which is being repaired, the first group in line to be repaired will be repaired immediately.

2. In Aerodromes only, the fuel bunkers have a special repair mechanism that always gives precedence for repair.

So, for example - if I attack an Aerodrome and destroy by this order the groups - SAM, EWR, INTERCEPT, Fuel.

What would happen with the repair in the background -

a. The fuel would be automatically thrown to the head of the list for repair.

b. The time from the first destroyed group count down would still continue.

So this means that if the SAM which was destroyed first, had a random time set for 25 minutes, and the Fuel bunkers were destroyed 20 minutes after the SAM was destroyed, the fuel would be repaired in 5 minutes as the timer continues but the fuel takes precedence.

The fuel is having precedence in order to make sure the Aerodrome is not closed for a very long period of time, otherwise someone could exploit it to destroy the fuel bunkers at the end of the attack process and in such, making the Aerodrome unavailable for a minimum of 1 hour 15 minutes or maximum of 2 hours and 30 minutes which would have a very big impact.

I know this can be confusing, and could show of some script issues, but it doesn't.

As far as I saw so far, the repair worker logic part of the script is working with no issues, I have revised it a few times during the testing period to make sure everything is working.

Hope this makes it clear for everyone :)
