Apologies for my intemperance tonight.
. I don't get as much time to fly and look forward to our missions and I just think it is is frustrating that we spent an hour trying to launch a mission
I realise that we are pushing boundaries and that the basic game struggles to cope with what we are trying to do but we are not helping each other by some of our actions.
We need to be smarter to help each other, it is difficult to get a successful launch so we should all be a bit disciplined at the start to give us the best chances of success.
make sure your hardware is working prior to mission
Make sure you have read through this thread, understand what is required and are able to start, taxi, take off, formate fly and land the P-38
Make sure you have the correct skins available
make sure you reboot the game prior to joining,
Once you have joined the server, follow your squadron leaders instructions on loadout pick your skin and ready up quickly.
Once mission has launched touch nothing untill instructed by squadron leader
Squadron leader should instruct on wing position and you should follow instructions on rolling out and takeoff.
On a personal note I would like limited restarts e.g. two or three depending on number effected. If only one or two have issues then mission should proceed, only if there are multiple issues then a restart should be called
This has the potential to be very imersive and exciting. It would be a shame if technical issues etc put paid to Tom's hard work.
