Mission launch announcement

[MK-84]

When a mission launches it should be advertised on 200.

Why? a Controlled message would draw more attention than a single player, saying "alert...."

[BowHTR]

then people would stop using the mission maker and just do it without it.

What about those who don't tune to 200?

A system message would be nice. They could tie it to the launch from a base in a certain amount of time. Same more than 25 planes upping from a base in 5 minutes generates a "mass launch" system message. This would give the smaller groups a chance and alert everyone where the horde was upping next.

I guess all those intel groups that everyone invested in didn't have anything to do with intercepting incoming missions. Coastal watchers and the french underground didn't have radios and report mass launchings and large bomber streams. Nope, this idea is wayyyyy to far fetched!

 I agree with what you said.....But still the opposing army didnt announce they are on there way.. the opposition had to figure it out..

I think it should come up in the radio and say something like:
System:(insert name here) is planning a mission from (enter base name) and is looking for pilots

or be like jayro and call a lift time and direction. that way anyone can take what plane/load out they want. and for the people that check tower/ in flight numbers you have guys on the runway vs sitting in tower

I think the idea is to announce to the ENEMY that a mission is lifting. Hence the "advertised on 200" and the "ALERT..." comments

Hmmm full dar bar in one sector, back from the frontlines, is that not enough warning?

[Tilt]

agree with above.............. full darbar is sufficient notice of mass enemy action  be it mission or not.
