Is CoD worth getting?

[Chivas]

Furbs... your telling me a Coop squad couldn't start a server with a group of AI Ju87 covered by a group of AI 109's attacking a convoy of ships, that your squad needs to intercept? etc etc etc

You don't really need a Coop room to start the mission. Your group should be on teamspeak or given an approximate starting time. I here Hyperlobby has COD available now so there might be a team room there. Or you could have a trigger that starts the AI when the first aircraft in your group takes off.

Our server does this. Air Combat Group (ACG).

We presently run all historical raids from August 12th 1940 in chronological order with detailed briefings and regular radar information for both sides. The raids are reduced in size obviously but we've had no trouble with 40+ AI being attacked by our Wing as they come in.

There is briefing info which updates according to the mission in operation. The missions are spaced in order to allow groups to land and prepare for the next, on both sides, which is what we presently do together already. If you follow the information you will become embroiled proper, but alternatively you can do whatever you like as AI are in operation all over the place in pairs/flights as psuedo-historic sweeps. Our missions are large so patience may be required for loading times - I am a stickler for mission accuracy and have a good eye for missions following experience making the USL missions and our squadron campaigns.

I didn't want to publish here today tbh as we are a work in progress and we've much work ahead of us. We have plans for the server when times are right for us. We've also restricted to 32 players for the time being but with all the AI there's not a shortage of action.

I think ATAG is great, it's a very pleasant server with guaranteed action and TS3 is marvellous - great fun co-operating with the chaps on there who are always friendly and helpful. It offers a different angle to our server with an objective option for both sides whereas we lean more to the 're-enactment' side. Our boys have spent a lot of time in there and will continue to do so, however in this case I get the feeling that furbs may not have ventured out much *joke*. Don't write off the servers!

Osprey that sounds great and cant wait to give it a try. If you want a few others to help test it then give me a bell.

It's always up (I think!) so you can jump in anytime. You can be alone and find lots of action just by following the missions, but probably best take a wingman at least

Check the server list, Air Combat Group (ACG) and you can get our TS3 off the link I posted. Also........we're recruiting red and blue

It is worth getting,because 1 day it will be very very good,at the moment it just looks lovely.

A few of us just might Osprey, though would rather jump in when the rest of you are there.

Totally understandable. Weekend euro evenings best, especially Sundays. Feedback welcome too :p

can someone show me a link to a place selling this game for less than $50? I keep hearing people on here say, "get it, its cheap now" but everywhere I look its $50! Even Skyrim is less than that now.....
