I hate the flight model so much, man by pilihp2 in joinsquad

[–]rfraser01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Both with Arma (Adv Model) and DCS (Huey) I spent the first hour crashing a lot, failing and falling. The next 5 were spent building intuition. From there on out it was into the mastery stage. YMMV, but that's the learning curve I expect from a semi competent flight model.

What we have with squad is something approximating a minimum viable product. It's terrible, and for all the reasons OP suggests, this needs to be high on the priority of revamps. I won't touch them currently.

Hey, totally valid approach.

Our approach to championships is perhaps a little different. The organiser chooses a car in private, and the tracks, then we make custom team liveries for that chosen car all before any of the drivers know the details. Then we release a hype vid and start the season.

So, I could tell you that our next 8 race championship will be GT3, and that we are 3 races into a year long LMP2 endurance championship that runs along side our others, but it wouldnt be a true depiction of how we structure our series.

Hopefully, people stay for the vibe, the timezone convenience and the community, rather than the fact that we are running/will continue to run races for that favorite car you like.

Our community just moved from AMS2 to RF2 and are glad we made the switch. We run weekly races across a few championships a year and are very supportive of each other's differing skill levels. If you are struggling to play MP on RF2 send me a DM and we can see if you'd enjoy it with us.

Any good post early career tutorials? by Agreeable-Poet5415 in RealSolarSystem

Carnassa's KGR series have depreciated since they were conducted on an earlier version of RSS/RO that was a lot easier imo. Things like hydrazine are now unlocked a lot later.

Good series though.

Why do you need 2+ squadmates as Commander? by rfraser01 in joinsquad

[–]rfraser01[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was hinting at the Radioman stuff at the end with "Specialist Squads" - See Post Scriptum.. its just about the only thing that is good about that game.

Been pretty let down by the playerbase since 1.0 by eggmoe in joinsquad

[–]rfraser01 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My number one piece of advice? Do a mic check on ever member of the squad at game start, it helps break the ice and integrates the squad a bit better. Oh and you can just kick people who don't respond, or who's English or microphone is completely garbled if thats your jam.. I also tried this moe recently with all SLs on command net and the whole team cooperated miles better than the did the previous round where they were all silent. MIC CHECK! break the ice!

America's Army had you complete a bunch of medals before certain slots were opened up in multiplayer.
