Thanks to the ATAG server

[Mr Greezy]

I spent an entire Saturday on the ATAG dedicated server and thoroughly enjoyed myself. Not only were my fellow pilots mature, courteous, and had a great sense of humor, but the ATAG fellas that were there were patient and attentive when anyone encountered any hiccups. To give an example, I couldn't join a newly restarted round because there was a "ghost" version of myself still lingering on the server -- they restarted the round again to clear the problem. The response could've easily been "Yeah, bummer...wait it out, I guess." That's pretty cool if you ask me.

I was also kicking myself for not getting online sooner. We were getting pretty technical calling out headings and altitudes, organizing raids across the channel, and calling out targets and each other. I believe there was some formation flying at some point. I'm forgetting names, but I particularly enjoyed our little shipping raid where two Blenheims attempted some skip-bombing against German cargo ships. Most of the time we were just fending off the endless attacks by those pesky Hun over Hawkinge. That airfield must have a giant sign on it that says "Kick Me". Completely fine with it though as for the majority of the time I flew my ROTOL Hurricane out of Manston.

So yeah. I saw that "demand" for a fix down below, and while I completely agree that it would be amazing to have some well overdue fixes in this game, there is still some fun to be had. Trust me, I normally always play singleplayer, but my experience on Saturday pretty much has me converted. It was great. Didn't mean to be inflammatory, that last one, I'm just trying to glean something good. Patches are needed, no one is arguing.

I'll probably see some people I flew with next Saturday as well, if not sooner. Well done!
