One other thing. You can fly close to a bomber that is AI and jump into any position. Pilot gunner whatever you wish.

Same as a human piloted plane but you can't occupy a spot already occupied by a human of course.

But if you're watching / covering a bomber and it comes under attack when your really not in position to assist or a little out of range you can jump into that planes gunner - if not occupied - and have a go at the bandit.

But please ask the pilot. I love handling my own gunner myself and hate to try and switch and can't because someone is in it.

A gunner is a personal thing and it takes team effort between the pilot and gunner. I consider it an honor to gun for someone but I too need to know that we agree to the action we take when under attack.

You can't fire very well on someone that is turning their plane as well as the bandit turning. I prefer someone know what I will do when attacked to give them the best chance of success.

The goal as gunner isn't so much as to shoot down the bad guy. But give the pilot every reason to want YOU as his gunner and to give him the confidence knowing he has a good one there and all he needs is to concentrate on the mission. And of course to break when I say.

I wasn't going to play the game until the patch had been released, but for the first time tonight I thought I would have a quick look at the online experience. I started the game at 9:30pm GMT and saw only 3 servers in all, 2 of these servers had 1 player on and the third had 2 players on. Can someone tell me if there is a problem with my ingame browser, or is this the normal server count in this game at present?

To my shock and horror what I saw alarmed me so much so I write it here.

Can someone tell me if there is a problem with my ingame browser, or is this the normal count for servers in this game at present?
Problem with your browser, clear the filters and try again.

Hmmmf.

I now consider a modicum of financial recompense to be necessarily forthcoming from an Australian direction.

The new mission is superb chaps. Give it a whirl.

Thanks Wolf.

P.S. Happy St. George's Day!

Dutch did a quick vid test 2059833232262 LOL . Anyway shows off some of the emmersion I am trying to bring to the online servers.

There is a full 2 way scoring system and Plane allocation and menu (sometimes broken on Red team - Its a patch thing).

Check out the vid. Mission went live this morning on Atag server 2. It will hopefully move to Server 1 soon.

The Atag server 2 is a smaller server I think. It only has 3 cores and when runninng the mission there can be a second program running that gathers all the stats from server 1 to put on the atag website.. i think that is what it is doing.... anyway the 3core cpu on server 2 is maxed out at 100% and this can cause delays in people connecting and even remore connecting to the server.

I am in Australia and once playing it is fine but if the cpu running at 100% it can cause warp or long delays for people connecting cause the messages are not getting sent to the network.

I play on server 1 all the time with ping of 240+ and never had a warping problem or anything. It is great.
