ATAG Dedicated Server is up!

[ATAG_Bliss]

I highly suggest connecting through HyperLobby. No more flash screen with UBI video. No more waiting to go through menus. It simply loads up the crosshair and directly into the server.

What was your error message trying to connect?

3 vulches, 1 spin into the deck trying to avoid a vulch, 1 dog fight kill and 2 bombers shot down. Time spent: 2 hours, 20 mins wasted by vukchers, 10 mins wasted flying from less vulched east london to Vulch City (Hawkings), 10 mins chasing phantom dots, 20 mins drinking beer, 10 minutes kicking the cat and the rest was fun.

Sorry Vulchers but you really do tend to negate the experience.

But that aside.....was it really this hard to spot planes during WWII ? Flak explosions all over the shop not withstanding, I can never spot these ground hogging blues!

vulching is allowed in our server it a realism server so think from a point.
German air strafes on airfields were very common in real life.

also if someone could help me find German and British and Italian aircraft identifications pictures that are currently in game aircraft it would help me out on my project.

1. Is it Teamspeak3 client 64 bit v3.01 that I need to DL and is there any point in keeping Ventrillo on my HD?

2. Is setup similar to ventrillo?

1. correct; not really

2. It's about 10x easier to setup than ventrilo (for a 1st time user)

After you've downloaded it, you can go to the forums and click on the connect now button and it will auto connect you.

Here's instructions for a TS3 overlay that actually works for IL2COD: http://theairtacticalassaultgroup.co...liffs-of-Dover

Just finished getting one of my swarm mates up and flying in CoD on the ATAG server.
Must say that we enjoyied it immensly, thanks for it.

We did however have a problem in that from a distance we could see enemy aircraft but when we got within a few klik's the aircraft would vanish except for the canopy. I could see the light reflecting from AI bombers canopy glass but no other part of the aircraft.

Of course using the beta patch.

Any ideas? Need any other information to diagnose the issue?

Hey Bliss and co,

Well lads I think we need to bring back the Spit II as a result of the evolution of blue tactics. Had a great night in the server with my squad tonight, but towards the end we couldnt get off the ground, let alone engage any bombers. There was a steady stream of Blue 109's booming and zooming the allied fields.

Now dont get me wrong, its a good tactic and was well done by the pilots, but the rotols and 1a's just cannot compete when we start at such a disadvantage. Plus all the fighting was below about 4k feet.

I think bringing back the IIa's is the only way to ensure the red team have any kind of equality.

I know I'll no doubt get flamed for reigniting the old debate, but several of the best 109 pilots ive spoken to on the forums all say the IIa should be brought back as there is too much imbalance without it. The 109 is on par with the IIa if flown well! Its only the poorer 109 pilots that cant match the IIa. They are just used to owning the Hurri and 1a in any kind of vertical engagement.

Even still, was a fun night, thanks to all the pilots, red and blue who took part.

Recon.

I'm going to say it. You know I am. Don't take off at a field that is under attack, start at a far field.

Get altitude and give yourself a chance.

Tactically more airfields sounds like a better solution.

What a SPitII can do more that a rusty Hurri can't do right after T.O. ?

I have to say i stopped playing online till the planes are sorted out cos as it stands all the blues have to do is boom and zoom and reds can do nothing about it, barring catching the odd one out. Gets boring for reds being disadvantaged all the time.
