UK_Widowmaker 571 Posted June 8, 2009 Just a thought.... with the time difference, wondered if any Brit's / Europeans fancy forming an online squad to practice...and eventually take on the American team? Let me know if anyone is interested in moving this forward? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Axgrinder 0 Posted June 8, 2009 (edited) Just a thought.... with the time difference, wondered if any Brit's / Europeans fancy forming an online squad to practice...and eventually take on the American team? Let me know if anyone is interested in moving this forward? OH! I AM LIKING THIS! 2PM EST = 7PM LONDON TIME I BELIEVE! I would be willing to create a MP mission with two opposing squads of aircraft. Maybe a two seater thrown in on each side for an escort type scenario. Then we wouldn't have to use the Team dogfight feature and the game would run better. We would set up two channels on TS for each side. THIS COULD BE GOOD! Edited June 8, 2009 by Axgrinder Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sitting_duck 3 Posted June 8, 2009 ras,,,,just in case you have the time this afternoon,,im gonna put a mp game,,,98.110.234.111 I dont have the time to play, so will just land you will need the matmat installer, (ie correct gotha and zepplin) If you do try, let us know how you made out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Madmatt 0 Posted June 8, 2009 While "Us vs. Them" style dogfight missions would be fun, with the work I am doing in trying to make the campaign missions at least "somewhat" MP playable, we might have more fun in having one team fly as Allies and the other as Central Powers and play historically based missions. I envision MP campaign missions featuring some of the more active periods in the airwar for example Bloody April, or the "Last 100 days" time periods. With a little bit of tweaking and patience and preperatrion, single player campaign based missions can be made into very exciting MP events. I hope to be able to share more on this development in the near future. Madmatt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Madmatt Great idea matt,some years ago when i was playing cfs2 i was part of the Paccom group,we flew missions against each other and it was spot on.There were loads of diffrent sqdn's so bring it on.

Balalaika 0 Posted June 8, 2009 Obviously I'll join with the rest of the brits, but I'll warn you, having flown 3 sessions with our allied brothers - we 'll have a job handling em unless we start practising ourselves beforehand. They. are. good. Well, certainly better than me... lol, but I'll shoot anyone, just point me in the right direction. 90% of the time I'll hit the ground real good, but I'll at least prove a diversion for the few short moments i am airborne :) Will feel odd flying against the guys who taught how to MP and all, and I am VERY up for joint co-op missions, but I have feeling some good ol' dogfightin' will be a blast too. Any european pilots got TS and can host a game night we could join to 'hone' our skills and unlearn target fixation? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gents, I'd love to play, but 2pm on a Saturday is a very difficult sell to the 'Commendant' unless it's pouring rain and all the rooms are painted already. Know what I mean. I stretch it enough working on the Nova... when I should be working on a new kitchen. If I can squeeze it though... I'll fly for the Europeans... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
