i got 4 kills before dying....
but then i bombed the wrong target...... (i knew that 250s wouldnt kill HQ)
i wrote down some "issues" and what we could do to improve things.... just gotta edit it before sending.... heres a small selection of comments?
main issues was:
1: FPS.... serenity (from my squad) for instance crashed out due to his FPS dropping below zero.
we have 3 groups, we should try either launch from diff fields (a issue on the map we had that night) or up 1 or 2 minutes apart. that way the instant FPS drop wouldnt be so aparent. plus you wouldnt get people just upping as soon as the spawned into mission. so you would keep groups together.
if we flew as 3 seperate flights, untill we reached cruise alt or enemy airspace before we formed up, fps would be less of a issue for those on slower system (hell i was under 20fps most the flight!!!)
2: Channels. Each group should tune to a seperate channel, group leaders and main "leader" should have there own channel too. this way the leaders can plan the flights, and then tell there group.
Range channel used for fighter reports.... try and keep chatter to min.
3: formations. We had good formations... but leaders should never be at full throttle.. plus if you are on auto climb you will NEVER catch the leader (if he is on auto climb too) because autoclimb sets your speed to the best climb speed (135 in b17 i think?). So the guys behind the leader, trying to catch up will only gain alt faster. One of the best ways to catch up is to have the leader always fly at 40ish mp and have the guys in the rear flying at max power, with a climb speed 10mph faster than default... setting this by typing ".speed 145" this way you will catch leader at 10mph.
i wrote like 2 pages of a4... dont think i will end up posting it all....
I love the ideas of PROPER bomber missions and i
everyone that showed up. IT was fantastic to be apart of it...
