SYNDICATE MP server

I just jumped in,but it was obviously night time on the server, 'cos it was pitch black lol
I think night missions might be pushing it a bit at this stage of the learning curve!

The issue is time does what it does, and the server is 24/7.. Will have to look at ways to circumvent that.

night time is fun tho

I can keep looking at the exhausts all day...looks fanastic...so does the moon reflecting off the sea

We had this night time issue when we first ran our RoF server. At the moment the MP side of things is pretty basic and we only have one or two missions!

We will see if we can get static time set on the mission to maintain daylight for now.

When I first joined the server, it was pitch black

. Couldn´t even see where the runway is

I just had my first online session, was amazing FPS were better than I was expecting.

Took off and flew over the channel but didn't keep an eye on my RPM and sure enough my engine started to cough and splutter and shake violently, reduced prop pitch and tried to continue but it was too late the damage had been done could not stop the shaking and the speed dropped RTB.

Second Attempt, got across the channel spotted some targets and closed in. Above an airfield with a spit gradually gaining altitude a few shots into the cockpit, dead pilot and a fire sprang from the engine it listed left and lazily turned into the ground (turned out to be AI, im still a bad shot ).

Next spit closed in and a few shots and the right wheel deployed slightly, came around for another attempt as it was going for a crash landing, this time no fire and it tumbled into the ground (Damn AI again). Started to look for another target and sure enough a third spit flew across my view this time I had to chase it, but closed in way too fast and crashed into it .

Fanatics experience I recorded the third but less fortunate flight, if you wish i could make a vid.

So to sum up Online is sweet, for the first time I felt giddy, it was like I was flying il2:1946 again... when i got the first kill my heart was pounding but when all i came across was damned AI I started to get annoyed. There were 5 reds online but i have no idea where they were .

I'll be off for about seven days at the end of next week. Can't wait to get online with Cliffs of Dover.
The Syndicate is a great place to star my CoD online fun.

I had tons of fun on your server in ROF and looking forward to repeating that in your COD server.

See you soon over Dover........in my rear view mirror.

Yep, me too.

I also posted this in Syndicate Server thread as I know you don't hang out here very much.

56 would like to try this sever but we are in UK and the server seems to run on GMT(?) so its going to be dark most of our Squad night.

Any chance of adding some Height Lights (under Searchlights) or similar to the ends of the runways?

The missions should now be daylight only 24/7, so you shouldn't have that problem. But trust me, once we get some rotations and a mission list, there's definitely be some night action as well

Please let us know if it goes dark!

Beautiful server, thank you! Chased a 109 yesterday over Dover, all the way down from 14 angels, until my engine gave up at sea level ... I guess that the mixture was a little lean ... Question: tracers didn't seem to show up in game for the Spit IIa, despite their addition to the belting. Bug or server choice?

Cheers,
