I'm in to. How about the rules?? what can we agree on?? Do we need a poll for the rules?? any suggestions??

This is just what I had in mind. Must have missed your topic earlier Do we need a dedicated forum?? we can just start a new thread dedicated DID for ThirdWire games. and maybe get someone to sticky it

Isnt it so in real life to, sometimes pilots die before they can eject??? And even if they eject they could die to. Ejection seats are dangerous in real life a lot can go wrong

But no one will ever forbid you to fly in Hard FM if the aircraft is up to it. I think the DID standard only should represent a minimun of the standard all above should be up to the individual gamer IMHO

Sometimes and you can get some real odd behaviors. like no controll and stuff like that

Yeah but aint war hell and life a bitch sometimes

I cant see why not. But this is it why I asked you guys. So we could be flying and fighting at the same standard. In our own little DID group. Thats why I think we should agree on a set of rules up front. But my suggestions is only suggestions. Every input is welcome

I have seen much weird stuff, but never something like this :blink:

Exactly my point. Brings more excitment to the sim in general. And give one a good excuse to bug out when it's getting to hot..

Cool I tried the other tactic closing in like a porpoise. hosed the sucker down but got hosed myself At least I didnt die

http://forum.combatace.com/topic/37440-the-off-campaign-did-standard/ This is the OFF guys DID standard. with small adjustments it could suit this sim to

You have a pilot and when he dies you have to come up with a new guy, starting from square one again. You have to fly as close you can to reallistic. saying starting at the runway flying the whole course like you would in real life. not pressing Alt+N or starting near target. Landing at the runway again manualy.

Hi guys, Been reading a lot of the OFF forum. And I think that Dead Is Dead standard those guys use could be transferred to the ThirdWire Series with ease. Anyone interested in creating such a group here??? Okay it sounds like there is a wish for this. Anyone who wish to join this can join in this thread. The following rules has been agreed on: Rule No.1 when a pilot dies he is gone for good. You will have to create a new one starting from square one again Rule No.2 You have to start at the runway manual and fly the whole mission without using Alt+N and land again manual. Landing at the nearest friendly airbase is allowed when low on fuel or damaged. No refly of a failed mission is allowed. Rule No.3 Time compression is allowed (Alt+T) Rule No.4 Settings in gameplay options on Hard except the following settings which can be set at normal: Enemy skill, Flight model, Visual targeting, HUD display and Landing. Rule No.5 A pilot ending a campaign as POW can be used again in a later war. Rule No.6 The player decides which campaign he/her wants to play. All games and mods are free game. Campaign settings on normal Rule No.7 At the end of each month every member of the Dead is Dead group has to describe the best pilot in the inventory. preferally with a screen shots of the pilot record. this is optional. Rule No.8 No Nukes The startgun goes of January 1.st 2010 Happy Hunting Ladies and Gentlemen

I'm going to try out those tactics in my CL-13B NF4+ 62 Campaign... How low is lower???

You OFF guys has inspirred me to do the same thing in my sim of choice. anything on hard and if my pilot dies he is out and I have to start with another one...

Hey looks like my old 1:72 Heller Kit

Plus depending on the given target. If you can put some missiles into bombers with tailgunners it will help you a lot to. Try charging a Beagle from the rear in an F-86 armed with .50 cal and you're dead meat

I prefer Gun kills. But if you're playing very modern stuff it helps to even out the odds a bit using BVR missiles first. Missiles isnt allways easier. If you're playing on hard with everything and are flying the F-4 in Vietnam. You sometimes wished you had a gun instead of useless missiles.

Naaaaaa It's owned by some red and white guys

No need to be rude dude. The only thing you will acomplish with that atitude is that people dont want to help you out.

AND kill Migs

Death is a weird thing. The BIG unknown. Something none of us can cheat. I dont think you're gone when you die. I have seen to much weird stuff happening in my life to believe that its like switching a buttom on/off. I dont fear it myself since I truly believe its just a phase anyone has to endure to becomming something else. I cant tell you what since I dont know.
