This afternoon was one of those times when the unfinished nature of the sim stood out.
Tried the Repka 2 "Steppe" server. Poor frame rates, choppy play, warping, etc... I realize it's from Russia, but even my friends from the UK had trouble flying there. I honestly think there is a direct correlation between ping and instability in the game. It was the first time I have ever had a CTD in CLOD. Methinks the netcode needs more than a bit of work.
After mucking about in there for a while, we switched to ATAG. Flew for some time defending the Lympne area and managed to bag a Stuka that was attacking shipping in the Channel. It's the first time I really wanted a Gladiator. Man that Stuka is so slow, even the doggy old Hurri can barely slow down enough to put rounds on it.
Was going to land and call it an afternoon when a flight of 9 BR 20s showed up. I still had fuel and ammo, so I set out in pursuit. Took a long time to climb up to them and just as I was ready to open up, BANG! I was blown to bits by Insuber in his diabolical cannon armed Bosch machine.
I don't know what he hit but my Hurri just fell to bits, and I was instantly killed.
Good shooting.
