its a really good map but i want to strangle the fucking kc 10 pilots who keep deciding its cool to keep fluctuating between mach 0.46 and 0.59 when im trying to refuel in a tomcat whos engines take ten days to go from zoom to stalling

+1 for F-16, PLSSSSSSSS

any chance on having an F16 mod version?

europe patrols. not arctic. to be clear

i was play-testing the Russian side to see if a non-WW3 win condition is available and I get snagged on the "Bomb Mariupole" the objective condition is 10/10 and for the life of me I can only find 9/10.

T-55 and ef now added

my game crashes after a coulre of second when i start the mission

Any ideas if the T-55 could be added?

omg bro this is literally the best mission on vtol GOD DAMNNNN!!!!

this is soo good

6. What is the actual win condition? Its not very clear, seems like first side to suffer 4 deaths of a single pilot, but usually at this point the war is just getting started. Would be nice to have some " take and hold " objectives to complete to make the war feel like we are trying to do something

7. If you are going to add lives, there is a way for you to do it per aircraft, this would definitely make it more realistic and force some of the more noob players to TRY to play to your ROE if they know they only have 3 lives per aircraft ETC

Definitely needs some polishing, but its a great looking map and has a lot of potential. I am happy to assist you if you want.

Your new map is quite good, the europe map is awesome. I know it says WIP, here are my thoughts:

1. Why do you start us so close together, starting airfields are about 50nm apart, even in F-45's we can still see the other team... makes the whole " find the enemy " a little bit redundant

2. Is there a way to edit the trigger of " start WW3 " to player kill, not player side kill? Today we had an idiot Nato pilot fly over our base and get killed by a redfor sam, but that started WW3. Change WW3 trigger to player kill, not side kill ( if possible )

3. Why is AWACS and Air Refueler invincible? These should be TOP targets to be taken out

4. Nato Air Refuel pretty much flys right along the border of Russia, this is a priority support aircraft, it should be flying well and truly behind friendly lines, not on the border of a heat zone

holy fuck i can't fucking dodge the bullshit sam on the boat this shit sucks for real

this is an incredibly well done map and mission, I only have a few gripes about it.

1. At the end of the mission the "why did you shoot the russians?! now there's ww3!" text appeared despite us having opened fire only AFTER we intercepted the russian jets and got permission. we made absolutely sure we didn't fire any shots before then. It appeared at the same time as the "mission accomplished" screen with the carrier landing.

2. You have to be awfully close to have the mission accept the bombers as intercepted, which not everyone might realise. we spent a couple minutes just circling with them, waiting for something to happen until I got the idea to get as close as possible

3. oh god oh fuck there's so many ships

overall a 9/10, I'm a big fan of the dynamic (?) spawnpoint where after you inevitably die to the ships or enemy fighters you respawn in the air just a couple miles away. well done!

Best map

Very nice, would like to see more of these kinds of missions in the future.

pootin gives this two thumbs down. good job.

Just tried it - great mission!

that's a lot of change notes

Absolutely the best map. Make sure to name your lobby "Don't start WWIII" to reinforce the extra challenge in global COMMs. Careful with full scale battles on anything less than a 4th Generation AMD CPU/1080 set-up.
