ATAG Dedicated Server is up!

[TomcatViP]

the IIa shld be available only to new pilots that want to test themself online.

The whole idea of an easy mount is a good one. But when I see squads and old aces flying that model it makes me desesperate of the whole com.

Note : you can't B&Z some of them. they are so much faster (some not all ) !

Good idea if you could get it to work. Like a pass key from server moderators maybe.

There has been some discussion here on "opportune warping". Be advised the Memboost utility (also discussed here) causes a warp apparent to other players when it does its thing.

Interesting, I guessed it would do if you used the 'defrag memory' option but not during its routine cleaning. Mine does that every 60 seconds and I haven't been told I'm warping but I'll get the guys to watch out for it.

It is 5 airplanes, 5 frigging airplanes!!!!

C'mon guys, get over it!!!!

1 vs 1 is bad news I agree. So, don't!
I got killed a lot of times in a Spit II vs three Bf109.
Yesterday, I think I shot 2-3 SpitII flying solo in my Bf109.

There is nothing more, nothing less.

And so many posts for 5 planes (which get vulched mercilesly 90% of the time before take off) it not worth it!

my 2cents...

When I get to play there are at most 15 to 20 players and that drops of to as low as 10. With 5 Spit 2s( I thought it was 4) thats a large enough number of Superior AC to make a battle one sided.

At this map, with 10 players there is no battle.
It is rather "Vol de nuit" ("Night flight?") of St.Exupery...

If you want to dogfight then you should find either a server with more players or a smaller map. I always check the number of online players before entering the game by looking at the ATAG signatures like below:



If you want to complain guys, you can always find a reason.
So turn the page and play...


PS. And be happy that we (Bf109) do not to live with the 20min fuel limit above England like the real Luftwaffe pilots had

You hve just been granted as an expert in French language.

"Vol de Nuit" (Night flight - a portion of journey btw Paris and Dackard during the early 30's aboard a Breguet XIV of the Aeropostale (postal air service)with the crossing of the Pyrénées chain of moutains (I might be wrong on the type))
and
"Vol de guerre" (War flight - A reconnaissance mission over the battle field at high alt in a Bloch reco plane during the 1940 foney war)

are two great books to read from ST. Exupery

It is hilarious. I was online on Sunday and it was about 20 vs 20. 14, yes 14, of the 109's were E4's and 4 were E3's. Only 2 E1's. Funny, I don't remember seeing any historical accuracy complaints about that.

For the record I have not read of one incident from WW2 where the 109 could hang on 45 degrees from CO-e and watch the Spitfire fall away helplessly. In actual fact the opposite is more likely true given that the standard escape for a Spitfire was a steep climbing turn.

I trust therefore that we won't hear any complaints when you can no longer use this tactic.
