Good night online flying CLOD.

More people would play online if ATAG set the servers so you didnt need to take off and start near the action.

Nice, it was much smoother tonight~!

I'm pretty sure we like starting our engine and taking off! That's why we play on ATAG instead of the arcade map that lets you get over enemy bases 30 seconds after takeoff.

Did you note where I said I landed?

The real problem bases are Maidstone and Rochester. Maidstone's spawn points will put you in ground so rough you should be in a tracked vehicle, and Rochester spawns two planes on top of one another causing both to explode.

A base closer to London would be a good idea though, I agree. That said almost all the action is over the Hawkinge/Lympne area, so spawning anywhere else is really a non-issue.

The Axis fliers have not much to worry about at all though. The RAF has no capable attack aircraft at this point in time. Historical, but boring.

Why do you need to take off and start near the action? Almost every single airfield in England and France is spawnable. There's many places you could spawn in a fighter/bomber where you'd have a 40 minute flight just to get to the edge of your own country

Zoom in on the map and have a gander at all the spawnable fields away from the action.

Exactly. This kind of "players" are usually the main "feature cutting" reason for a real simulation flight experience in this kind of games.

They should be playing BombJack and decide what level they want to start playing on.

Lol, yeah, instant action you mean, arcade boy?

It would be even better to start in flight with an enemy plane in your gun sights, don't you think?

This is a sim not an arcade, remember. Starting in flight is as fake as a a 3 € coin.o
