Our server completely focuses on the ground war and frontline battlefield of ww2. Each of our missions will feature a Main battle during the invasion of normandy concentrating on the supply lines of these battles.
Vehicles and tanks will move and engage each other over a main battlefield. these frontlines are supplied from the rear with moving convoys. in order to defeat your enemy, you must defeat their supply lines through the use of Air interdiction.
this video breifly lays out the initial features of our server as well as a glimpse into the future and what our server has to offer. this is a sortie that a few of our squadron members flew in an attempt to destroy one of the enemies depots.
we have Air AI as well as ground AI that are always giving the server a sense of life. even with a low player count, there is still alot to do and plenty of action to be had. Its always open to the public! stop on by anytime and let us know what you think
For anyone interested in joining our squadron discord, please reference the description 👍🏻
Hay mate shafs from 77sqn here. We will be trying out your server tonight. we have been like a bunch of lost kangaroos since the storm was taken down.
We hope you enjoy it here! The air activity tonight was far too dense to get any ground attacking in lol. There were like 3-6 fur balls spread out over the map at all times
@@fuzzy-man-peach6258 we will bring our aircover experts
Hey man , I've tried clicking the discord link but it doesn't seem to add no20 . I was on your discord before but it vanished from my app. Can you help or advise please . Thanks.
Just when I thought WW2 DCS online was in twilight, this server comes alive. You guys are just what DCS WW2 needed. Well done. See you on there.
Aye we love our ww2 planes so it’ll be around for a while if we have anything to say about it! 👍🏻 I’ve played flight sims for about a decade. Safe to say I’m down for the long haul lol
Twilight? It hasn't even had Sunrise yet, lol. I can see the suns rays but no Sun yet, lol. Adding one plane after another without any rhyme or reason is a disaster for DCS. Are they simply glorified 3d modelers or game devs? DCS should ALWAYS add two planes of semi equal performance from the Axis and Allies released near each other.
Flew on this server 3 days ago, but this video helps it to introduce it and explain what it is about, rather then just let it get lost among other servers. This kind of introductional videos will help to drawn players into WW2 multiplayer.
Hope to see you in there more!
I have already made some flights in this server and can confirm it is full of action and different interesting places to focus your efforts. Congrats guys and thanks for this server!
Always glad to see you in there!🙏🏻
Amazing job on the server. Really nice to see your group utilizing all the DCS elements to build strategy like that.
Thank you!
Damn dude! This popped up in my feed. Was stoked about the new server but then was more stoked at the cinematic style video after. The view from below with the smoke at 7:33 was so good!
Thank you!! Hope you really enjoy it! Make sure to give any feedback you have
This looks incredible! It’s great to see such passion for the detail and building an immersive experience that requires players to plan and factor in a multitude of elements rather than just take off and hope to engage something!
Can’t wait to see this evolve! Thank you!!!
We are very excited to see the evolution as well! Really hope to make something we all can really enjoy in the ww2 space 🙏🏻
Great video, and awesome work with the server! 👌
Thanks Nightowl! Was glad to see you post another video🙏🏻 your videos are coming along nicely man!
Damn Fuzzy that was exciting shit. Felt like I was right there with you. Hope we see more pilots in there to add to the excitement.
Well, you WERE there😂 🙏🏻
Great stuff! When I'm good to go again(shoulder Surgery Recovery, had a set back a couple of weeks ago) I'll check it out. Thanks Guys. Cheers,
Hope to see you in there! Best of luck with your recovery 👍🏻
That rocket strike on the tank at 18m was
🙏🏻 ‘twas a great luck shot. I saw the dust trails moving up that tree line and lobbed in over the tree. Was thrilled when I watched the replay to see it was a dead on hit
Looks good, wish you guys good luck. The WWII era in DCS needs a better server. Even though I really respect the amount of time the SOW team put into their server, the missions they had were kind of lackluster and this is a good core concept.
The high player population is what really made SoW standout. And it had a lot of nice historical accuracy details. (Squadron skins, tac numbers, historical target locations). Unfortunately with the Normandy map, the airfield distance is compressed and without a real objective pulling people away it ended in a giant furball at one of the two ends of the coastline of France.
We are very excited with the direction of this server and it’s features. They will continue to evolve as I learn moose more and what all we can do with it.
This is exactly what I have been looking for and thank you for the detailed video tutorial. I can't tell you the number of times I go onto a server and I have no idea what is going on.
Super glad! 🙏🏻 It’s evolving pretty fast and features will change for us over time. I’ll continue making videos of our sorties like this one and spend the first couple minutes talking about server mechanics, features, and strategies.
Flew couple missions in a P51, downed some AI Doras and Antons without too much effort, they fly smoothly and quite predictable. Good ground targets but did not engage. Nice to fly Normandy on another server, great job, thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it! The AI are all always random. Sometimes you get an ace and they’re tough to go against
Looks awesome , will deffo check this out .
Awesome Timothy! Excited to see you in there
@@fuzzy-man-peach6258 ground pounding ... YES !!!! love it... get you over to our place for a bash too , awesome vid that.
Gotta get myself out of the mission editor to do more flying in general🤣 we will definitely have some events for our squadron playing on other servers and hosting as well
@@fuzzy-man-peach6258 deffo man :)
Cool!
🙏🏻
Didn’t play yet but loving how it looks like and the attitude of you and your squad towards dcs ww2 you can count with a Spanish squadron there I’ll bring my wingmen :)
Glad to hear it! We are excited to have you🙏🏻
What everyone else has said. Short version: Thank you!
🙏🏻 hope you enjoy! All feedback is welcomed
Hot damn! It's like a mini movie. We look ok out there. Love seeing every ones nose art. Awesome work as always Edit: Seems I need to report to gunnery school
Excited for everyone’s nose art to be done and for a few of our campaign missions are under our belts with some accolades 🙏🏻 will be looking sweet
Wow, Fuzzy, you folks have some serious ambition trying to bring back strat in a WWII a/c sim to create more than just flying freaking fight club 😂 🤣 Seriously exciting!
We like dogfighting, but we like dogfighting around the context of a bigger mission 🙏🏻 this server aims to give us just that
@@fuzzy-man-peach6258 Uh...never said I hated dogfighting, anymore than I hate ice cream. Can't live on it though 😉
Looking good Fuzzy!
Thanks barry!
1- we'll be there. Thanks for your time and your efforts!
2-what's the name of the song played at the start of the video?
Awesome thank you!
I actually don’t know 😅 I get all my music from epidemic sound and it was a chunk of a song I saved a while back
Open Beta Server?
This sounds very ambitious!
Others have tried and failed so I hope you have a high quality team behind you.
Every single ED update will have the potential to break your missions as well, so a lot of fixing/ up-keeping may be tough work.
I wish you success as I have been hoping for more good WWII servers for a couple of year's now. I'm looking forward to trying it out! And hopefully I may be a regular pilot on there. Good luck! :)
Maybe you could add a statistics tracker to a website in the future as well? A bit like 'Storm of War'.
Yes, open beta version of dcs. And it’s been a quick success so far and it just keeps getting better. We have separate mission stats than the native DCS ones and we will have an online website for stats tracking as well. Similar to SoW and other Il2 stat tracking websites.
@@fuzzy-man-peach6258 Sounds almost to good to be true lol. Very impressive! You are going to make a lot of people happy it seems as the WWII DCS community has felt let down and left behind. Especially by ED and the whole buggy plane fiasco that's still going on.
Extremely simple code fixes that can be done within a minute for the P-51 Ram Air bug. And how hard can it be to fix the Anton, D9 engine and the bomb timers for the Axis planes.
I'm sure there's more bugs but I think these are the main ones. Eight hours of time to fix and test just these bugs I'm guessing. The community has even told ED how to fix them and what codes to change.
Our squadron came from Il2:great battles and that game had a lot of great ‘game modes’ in the multiplayer community. Enigma felt the lack of anything dynamic in DCS and made the Cold War server. We fell in love with the DCS flight fidelity and wanted to fly for dcs ww2, but we also felt the lack of the dynamic environment in multiplayer.
I started writing missions for our squadrons private server and we realized we could do a lot more with the tools present than originally thought. Hopefully if nothing else, these new servers will just show others what can be done.
@@fuzzy-man-peach6258 I came from IL-2 Box as well. It's hard to go back now. Ever since I tried to fly the P-51 and then the 109 I was blown away by the DCS flight physics when comparing the two simulations. Worlds apart! For me at least.
The damage model is much better in IL-2 though.
You could even earn extra money on the side if this turns out successful and the whole WWII player base returns. You could suggest donations through Patreon or whatever you like.
I think some people just stopped playing after Storm of War died. I know '4YA' took the Storm of War mission files. You may have competition. I don't know. I've been out the community and game for almost two months, so I have no idea what's going on now.
I wouldn't be surprised if someone wrote an article about your server, to let everyone know and it gives game journalist's something to write about.
Something new and original for DCS WWII. What a breath of fresh air!
Edit: The damage model for buildings in IL-2 is shockingly bad after you bomb them. They just turn a darker colour it seems, from the air lol.
I was very sad to come back to dcs ww2 to realise that SOW had shut down… but then I find a random video on UA-cam and the name of the creator seemed familiar.. sure enough it’s the very person who helped me greatly with the Anton, and was responsible for me falling in love with dcs ww2. Then to find out you’re the one pioneering a brand new ww2 server? I jumped on and flew a sortie in the k4 (can’t believe I still remembered how to start it) shot down a bomber and landed with a damaged engine, your server is killer dude, I’ll be on as much as possible 🤙🏼
Priest! Very excited to see you man! 🙏🏻 I started working on these missions just prior to SoW shutdown - so when that happened I just kicked it into high gear to get it public. Another video next week explaining all the new features I’ve added this month
Super glad you enjoyed it and I hope to fly some anton with you in the future
@@fuzzy-man-peach6258 No doubt we will have to! love everything so far and love the ideas ahead! o7
I've flown on the server a few times and am having trouble figuring out how the resupply function works in the radio menu. I've tried to join your
Discord channel in hopes of finding someone on there who can help me out, but the invite to your Discord doesn't work either ( Invalid or expired )
Hi! I was testing the function in server yesterday and had some issues too. It functions properly when I’m testing the mission in single player while building them. Illl be looking into it soon and hopefully will have a patch for the missions to fix whatever is breaking it when the mission goes to the server.
The discord link refreshes a lot, don’t know why. Here’s a fresh one -> discord.gg/5dm8WKAf
@@fuzzy-man-peach6258 Thank you
nice , cant wait to try it
Can’t wait to see you in there🙏🏻
Great video, and it looks like this server is just what DCS needs. I'll try it out when I'm home next month. I do have a few questions. Are outside views allowed? Does the Dora have MW50? Are all the available really far from the action? In other words, do I have to fly for 20min just to reach the fight?
👍
🙏🏻
Good job!
Thank you!
Will definitely take a look....Amazing work
Nice
🙏🏻🙏🏻
Nice job guys. Map & concept look great. Wish it was for FC, but understand.
Finally a WWII server that bring the sense of war. When it will be online? It will be an Euro based server? (actually ping to US servers are too high to play in a good way. If it will be playable my Squadron will join for sure, normally we play on SOW and now on 4YA with 15 to 20 pilots at time. Thx.
It’s online and ready to be played anytime 👍🏻
It is a US server but a lot of people have had pretty solid connection. Some Australian based players had some issues with ping though
@@fuzzy-man-peach6258 Come Yesterday, with 9 pilots, to see the performance for us that are European based. We have an average ping of 130ms, so not bad. During the evening some of us experienced some lag but not so much to make impossible to play so for us is a big Yes.
The only problem is time frame, we usually fly on 21:00pm CET and with the time zone difference we only found 2 enemy pilots.
Could be, in the future, have a twin server Europe based? For example we have 3 server Germany based, two for squadron training and one open where we put mission we found on ED download section. We could eventually host it sometimes with Your permission and giving you credit for the creation of the mission, could be an idea :)
In anycase good job, We feel for the first time that we operating in a "real conflict" with some real purpose.
EAF51_Joker
In our last two trip I noticed that the export data for Tacview are limited only to player's aircraft, could be enabled the export for all? If is it done as anticheat option why instead not applying the standard 10 minutes delay?
I only write the missions and don’t have access to our server settings for any adjustments. If it were up to me, I’d disable the tacview entirely due to system performance and anti-cheating, but multiple of our squad members enjoy it.
If you need more detailed tacview, you can run the track again from your saved replay
@@fuzzy-man-peach6258 Thx for the reply. On our server I made some test and if I not generate a separate tac file for every client the performance loss is minimal (1 fps /2 on very crowded situation). But I understand Your point of view.
#crazyrussianpilot :- > Top СУПЕР👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Looking really cool, would love to fly the Mosquito on this server hunting ground targets. Just a bit worried the ping is a bit to high for me, assuming its a US server. Are there any prerequisites to join the server?
Have the WWII assets pack, and Normandy. Plus what ever you want to fly
Is your server Full Real no labels? Our Squad prefers No Labels... have about 12 looking for a Dynamic server WWII DCS.
Yessir, no labels. We have a marked up F10 map to show where objectives are, but that’s it.
Come check it out! Lots of new players have been in the last few days
hope to see more
Literally working on a new video as I write this 😊
Have been busy adding a lot of new features to the server! This next video will go over all the current additions and what to expect in the future 🙌🏼
I just had so much fun getting shot down, great server !
I wish Eagle Dynamics made WW2 gameplay more accessible, like they have with the more modern stuff with the free Caucasus map and the free starter planes.
They should make either the Channel map or Normandy map free to help with getting in to the WW2 stuff. I would love to play this but just to do that I will need to spend over $100 to get the map, a plane and the WW2 assets pack.
Yes they certainly had an interesting move making the assets pack separate instead of including the units. I will say, the ground units themselves are pretty high quality but it does suck that you basically need 3 purchases to do anything ww2 related. I would definitely wait for a sale, as there are often 50% sales and that’s when I would get everything you want
i dont have the normandy map XD. I really dislike how we have 2 similar maps both centered on WW2 and in the same area, it divides the community. I bought Channel map thinking it was the better of the 2 and would have more WW2 server and now the Normandy map is the one getting all the attention and a fancy new update. Why the hell doesn't ED just combine the 2? As long as single player is as boring as it is(C'mon ED, we need better AI and dynamic campaign!) Channel map is going to fade into ether with NTTR
We will be featuring other maps in our future at some point. Normandy is the oldest map and therefor the one most people use. I wish we had one big map including the channel and Normandy. I think the new update to the Normandy map may get closer to that change
Very nice mechanics!
Thank you! There’s been many new updates since the server became public 😄 feel free to join the discord (link in discription) to keep up to date with the latest changes/updates 🙏🏻
Looks fun.
Next time they have a big sale on DCS I will definitely give it a look
If you have DCS and its not through steam you can have a trial on modules and see which one you like
Like the server. Why is "outside view" turned off?
To prevent cheating. Most servers don’t allow external views anyways. They can always be enabled in replays
I've been playing this and it's great. Q: Will the front line move and how does one side win?
So happy you’re enjoying it!!
Yes, it will in time. It’s currently at the ‘base’ model for our server. There are a lot of features that we have yet to add (moving frontline will be one of those). Each map (battle of caumont, battle of st Lo, etc) will be fought over multiple map rotations in the future. Allowing your team to push the frontline mission to mission based off results
Server looks great! I'd love to come check it out, but last time I tried there was a ping limit which kept me out. Do you know if that ping limit is going to increase?
It should be removed, but even after removal we had a couple players across the pond that had issues with it
Just to confirm for everyone else reading this, I was able to join with my ping around 280-310 ms :)
Hello Fuzzy-Man-Peach!! I am interested in this Server can you have the invitation for the Discord Server?
discord.gg/WdhfpmbJ here you go🙏🏻
Is this server down for good or just temporarily?
Its been offline for a week :(
Looks great! Expect me ...
Brillint idea
Looks good! Is the server still up?
Sure is! It’s listed as No.20 squadron Ww2 on the dcs browser - Open Beta🙂
Maybe I missed it, but is the ground war also controllable? Or is it AI which attacks each other.
Just AI units. We will have Jtac slots available in the future as a ground unit, but we don’t currently feature any Combined Arms play
@@fuzzy-man-peach6258 alright thanks! will be checking the server out today!
Do we need the Normandy map to play on this server ? Or the channel is okay ?
You will need Normandy and the ww2 assets 🙏🏻
wäre hammer
Which version of DCS Open beta or stable. I see if I can on.
Open beta 👍🏻
@@fuzzy-man-peach6258 I fly stable and others I fly with . If you think of making a second please consider that.
I don’t foresee ever making a server on the stable version of dcs. A vast majority of online servers run on the open beta, and as such is the largest player base. There are a lot of training servers on stable, though 👍🏻
Is Combined Arms available on this server? Is it PvE or PvP?
It will be available in some missions! And it’s a Pve and PvP.
Is it possible to get the link for discord? Would liike to get a couple of chaps to play it with. And well done.
discord.gg/dKHSN4uN
Here you go! We also recommend using SRS while online as well👍🏻
@@fuzzy-man-peach6258 Thanks so much! Cannont wait to start!
Is this server still online?
Is the asset pack necessary to play on the server?
Yes, the ww2 asset pack and Normandy map
Jawzaa ... :)
Is the server on Open Beta or Stable?
Open beta👍🏻
@@fuzzy-man-peach6258 thanks for the info. Sounds like this new server will fill the Storm of War hole.
We’re hoping to make an entirely different hole😉👍🏻
@@fuzzy-man-peach6258 The hole being a void from where a server is no more. I'd like to think you're not making a hole as a goal. 😉
Wish DCS ground vehicles were like IL-2....sigh
You mean like tank crew? I really enjoyed the combined work of tanks and planes coordinated together in il2
@@fuzzy-man-peach6258 you can add Combined Arms... It is worth it...
Normandy map sucks bad i hate playing it with stupid hundreds airport and bad accuracy
Bartheks texture mod helps, but I don’t usually use it. Also, the upcoming addition of FARPs for ww2 will change the lack of airfield variety 👍🏻 lots of positive out there
@@fuzzy-man-peach6258 i hope they redo it all over and erase all them stupid airports which are fictifs and make it accurate like channel map is
I know they’re likely to expand the map as we were teased pictures of London and Paris I believe. Maybe they will revisit some when they do that
bad timing for this anouncement XD
Why’s that? Lol
Would be cool if it wasn't super hardcore. No labels is shooting yourselves in both feet if you're trying to get people playing. I love the flight sim aspect of the game, not playing cartographer or radio operator. At the absolute minimum, players should be able to see *themself* on the map.
Sorry my friend, this isn’t a common sentiment amongst the ww2 community. Especially in a full sim like dcs. I guarantee you the server would purge itself of players the day icons were turned on. No one likes that. It is way too gamey for dcs. That would be welcome in some game modes of war thunder or il2, where it’s a more casual game. Normandy in DCS is a very easy map to learn as well, considering most engagements take place along a similar frontline structure. You visit the same spots repeatedly.
We don’t aim to be for everyone. But for those our server suites, it will be a great server👍🏻
There are other ww2 servers in dcs that might be more friendly to newcomers with the icons, but external views or icons will never be on in this one
@@fuzzy-man-peach6258 is that why the server is always 1-2 players max? I have *never* seen it higher than that.
Then you’re blind. Must be why you need labels when you’re flying 🤣
@@fuzzy-man-peach6258 any hour, any day of the week, I've never seen your server have more than 2 people in it. Have fun playin' with yourself.
Thanks! Keep increasing my comment count. Your hate is making my channel grow 😎
I hate AI fighters ..
I will never understand why servers use AI fighters, as all players go to servers to play against other players, not against a PC...
You don’t have to play, or better yet - you can make a server :)
I will never understand why players that put zero work into servers complain about servers. 😄
