Many good players even entire squads disappeared from Hyperlobby. And I still can not figure out why. I hope they will come back and rebuild the hard-core player community on the release of BoB.

Likewise, most players in this forum and ubi forums should be arcade players. So I'm afraid your idea will not be welcome here, Xilon.

A lot of people seem to blame the mods for that, but to be totally honest its probably just that the game is 10 years old and that is an incredibly long time to play a flight sim online. People just moved on to other things.

Personally I play offline, without mods (the only addons are Il2 Stab and Il2 Mat) with Speedbar disabled, HUD disabled, chat disabled, icons disabled but map turned on and try to fly the full missions in formation while trying to protect my AI squadmates as if they were real people and not die. But that is my personal choice, its not better or worse than how someone else chooses to play the sim.

Well, i also play full real, and prefer to play with real distances, but if i have to fly online wars, and my time is short because of my real live, certainly i prefer an scaled down real map that give me the oportunity to play the mission, and not be forced to not playing it because i dont have enough time.
If i have the time 1:1 map is certainly my preference, but sometime i only have one hour or one hour and half to play, that´s very likely to left me out of playing if the mission requires long time flying.

one EXAMPLE.
DURING NAVIGATION LONG TIME.

THE HOST in ONLINE GAME LAUNCH THE MESSAGE TO ALL PLAYERS ENEMYES AND FRIENDS.

THIS IS MESSAGE : ------> DO YOU CONFIRM X 250 SPEED TIME ACCELERATION? CLIK YES OR NOT.
IF ALL CLICK YES----------- ACCELERATION TIME MODE START.

this is my theory. for Sow Simulation.

The option to play on smaller scale maps would be easier to implement!

[Xilon_x]

i sorry i not find opetion for maximizze the resolution

[Xilon_x]

another one my theory

[Xilon_x]

another option of my theory

I don't think your example is a viable solution. Apart from the fact that flying in 8x is hard enough as it is (let alone 250x ) I doubt everyone would be able to synchronise being ready for time acceleration to start/stop at the same time.

Oh and the vids aren't really relevant to the topic.
