Oleg, online with SoW_BoB...

[Flyby]

Damn Flyby!! You must be out of your mind thinking about online flying like this. Most people only tend to wait for about 8 minutes or less for the action to begin (or they will bail to another campaign, Coop, or D/F room). Notice the number of views? That ought to tell ya something!

Well, that's not a bad idea you have there, but i think most people didn't comment because the underlying game mechanics are already part of the DF mode.

So, i guess you mean coops with multiple sorties (aka no respawn) as opposed to multiple sorties regardless of wether your pilot gets killed.

I think your last two points about radar and weather have been discussed at some point. As for multiple mission Coops, maybe. Most people only have time for one on a weekend. That sounds a lot like a moving dogfight map anyway.

IIRC, the RAF used to turn around aircraft in about 15 minutes, but it would be different pilots taking up the second flight.

you guess correctly. I should have been more clear about that. No re-spawning. The pilot gets killed and his day is over. He might as well look for another server to join. But I think a dedicated war server might be set up where pilots can register, and thereby have a way to check and see how things turned out (not to mention any relevant scoring). Be nice to have a bit of team play, maybe at the squadron level. (not to reinvent the wheel, of course)

As for the radar and weather being previously discussed, I can only say I missed that. I'll do a search for such discussions relating to SoW_BoB. Meanwhile I'll assume they both will impact online game play. I suppose such lengthy gaming is a bit hard to come to terms with. People do have lives beyond online sim-ing, so to ask someone dedicate enough time to fly several sorties (if one survives) is asking a lot. It seems the sort of event that would not be routinely put out there. But it might be a blast to do so every once in a blue moon.

Now if only Oleg sets a feature where an aircraft can be turned around in15 minutes. Give a guy a chance to get up, stretch the legs, maybe go take a whiz, or grab a snack. Then back at it with hammer and tong!

Well, what can I say?

My, point, so far as I had one, was that the aircraft went up again, the pilots had breakfast then might go up again when the aircraft came back again. We were short of pilots in The Battle, but not that short.
