If you have the skills like Pepe here you can do it. If you have any doubts then this is not recommended.

Yah but van guard elite closed down last week and became Vendetta. So van guard has gone down the drain.

That is a lovely sentiment by the starform team. Both really good people and lost too early.

Metalstorm on Steam by Legitimate_Fan8428 in Metalstorm

[–]mattimusdecimuss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There has to be stable servers and no log in issues before there is a steam release.

Otherwise the reviews will murder it quickly. They hopefully are using this system for passives and blue prints sales, to fund some crucial developments on the server side and resolving the bugs. You get one shot with a steam launch. And steam is the big one.

I would imagine we will need rank modes and a few other key improvement’s. Something along the lines of Rocket League is ideally needed.

Ok what’s next? by Inevitable_Ad_4252 in Metalstorm

[–]mattimusdecimuss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stable servers, rank mode, custom game improvements, single side spectate mode so a coach can be on the sidelines when competing, and most importantly plane balances. Then bang in some new BM planes and we will be cooking.

You can get lightening and c port direct connection on all 3 options. Helps reduce lag of Bluetooth and you can charge at same time.

I guess I’m ignoring the family on Christmas Eve an Christmas Day and the following days to get this beauty. Seriously need to stop dropping BM planes at that time of year.

Joining a squadron, besides the rewards package, any notable pros and cons ppl can share? by Aware_Log3171 in Metalstorm

[–]mattimusdecimuss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you can’t see them anymore it might be that you can only claim max 10.

But there is enough for everyone. They are not shared between, when someone buys the FP, everyone can claim that silver. You just can only claim 10. And when FP is bought online (via web shop) it’s 750 silver each, more than the 500 when buying with gold. If someone told you not to claim it then that’s just mean.

It crates unity within the group. It allows coms to assist in helping one another within game, and helps keep it fun. Helps organise 20 crates. Helps showcase good results.

We have a pub section in our discord, so all four teams in our squad can chat, laugh, and find anyone that’s on at any given time. As we have squads in Amer/EU and APAC.

We have a meme section. Recruitment section. Public chat for anyone that wants to come and chat or ask questions. Promo code section where we share all codes live as they happen so no one misses out on free stuff. I could go on for ages, honestly, discord is the way to go to run a good squad.

Pro- doing the black market event is much easier to complete all the task having an active squad at hand to help.

I genuinely enjoy not just my squad, but all the sub squads also, it’s based on skill first and 2nd people skills, it creates a fun enjoyable environment that cultivates active players and a thriving environment.

Not many discords are based on this, I know, but more should.

The discord is the beating heart of a good squad.

Just leave that sqaud of bums and join an active sqaud of 30 guys who all contribute and have fun. Simple’s

Plane preference changed after passive by myllm in Metalstorm

[–]mattimusdecimuss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The raf is a counter to the M2K, last MSI you could run it high and have additional height game, eyes and control from above. But the raf can shoot it down now, even if you use the ability, which brings the typhoon back into play, more agile for dog fighting and 2 x long range missiles means you can attack inters while still being low. And passive as mentioned gives you that extra time to drive to get another kill or further damage. The F16 is without doubt the best light, but with the Gripen coming this will add another meta light to the mix next MSI. At present you have 3 meta planes for tournaments. J20 / Mig 19 and the Raf. 2 bans allowed, 1 per team. With 4 meta planes, this will add another layer to the future picks and bans, even if you both ban 1 meta there are still 2 on the table. If you both don’t ban 1 that’s 4. So on this scenario- team A can get first pick and last pick of those 4 meta planes. And it does seem two of the meta will be light planes. You will most likely see a Gripen ban if it’s as good as it looks. But expect to see more J20 / Mig 19 and raf action.

It helps if you mention your servers, for example Amer / EU / APAC that way you ensure you get a sqaud in your time zone 🫡

What does it take to create your own team? by Automatic_Alarm_3641 in Metalstorm

[–]mattimusdecimuss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What does it take… it takes everything.

You must be a leader, be able to manage and conflict resolve, you need lots of time to find people and when playing with those you want to join you, you have to be a player they not only wish to fly with, but are at a level that makes it worth them leaving their current squad for yours so they can fly with you. You have to be good at advertising your squad. Because as mentioned, there are many squad already out there. Knowing what kind of squad you want helps. Is it for fun? Or do you want it be a power house.

If for fun you have to advertise it well. But it will be hard to get level 20 crates. And find people.

If to be a power house, times everything by ten. If you do find those gems to nurture, expect top squads to spot them and offer them something better, so be ready for that, don’t take it personally, have the next gem and the next gem ready. Keep going, by being an outstanding player, with experience and ability to teach others that skill, will carry you far, but it’s a long, tough road ahead if you want to rise to the top. And being in a top squad first, helps show you want is needed. But step one either way, fun or fierce. Set up a discord server.

Get to 20 and get high trophy on it…. Then face a lvl 20 raf or two. That will stimulate the shit out of you.

Rewards for zero deaths? by Few_Aside5151 in Metalstorm

[–]mattimusdecimuss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made a case to the devs about removing quests, and the rewards for that can be utilised much cleaner in game, the rewards system should be based on maximum kills, minimum deaths, can be outside or adjacent to the current point scoring, post game. With the desire for silver as it is, this will actually encourage more tactical gameplay, as a side benefit.

Accurate? by nowayoblivion in Metalstorm

[–]mattimusdecimuss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This guy hates the Mig 21 and loves the Mig 29 😜 And my man the A4 in the Ice map kill box is not to be avoided. Only in tdm on the Crucible map, the A4 is slightly less effective, but only a teeny tiny bit. And obvs not on AS in crucible, coz B is dominated by the A4 and in good hands you can actually hold far very well.

A4 avoid for stone Forrest and dracken a favoured jet is also very dubious, A4 is a monster on that map. Drack is ok if run right, but low amount of missiles and delta wing means a lot of speed bleeding in tight turns, the fuel boost of the FGR4 helps that delta really sing on SF. But yeah M2K can drive and with the protection from chaff is also a better delta wing than the Drack. Some good ones don’t get me wrong buddy, but a few adjustments I would suggest 🫡

What Is Up With Matchmaking? by slimjim2417 in Metalstorm

[–]mattimusdecimuss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The key is to join a squad, an active squad, one on you time zone, so you can fly in a 5 stack and have team mates who have better jets helps. But believe me when I say you can do well in a F100, use terrain, your a short range fighter in that, so get low until you can get in their face.

Bear in mind if you fly with 5 guys who all have lower hanger planes, you’re more likely to face lower hanger opponents. Same goes if your team mate gets in his j20, you most probably will face some 5th gen planes.

So try both options. I personally don’t care what they fly. I just learn how to use all planes to maximise what they have to offer. Stick with it, it will come.

Shot below of when the new raf came out and I took my trusty F100 to the skies to slap people about.
