Alternative History - Kola 1943 Campaign: DAY 2 Short But Action-Packed Defence | DCS

[@vec306]

Oh look Cap being an Ace in just a few minutes.

[@grimreapers]

Weird I know.

[@sivoltage]

whaaaa

[@HughMessenger]

Cap, your mic being off at the start actually spoke volumes. It was like you were just sitting there silently shaking your head in disappointment at the carnage. On the bright side, it wasn't that long ago every mission started like that. :)

[@chrisk_nfl4120]

@@HughMessenger I legit said out loud: "get another one"

[@smacman68]

The most difficult aspect of the mission was just getting airborne. That’s why I could not be a GR. Until I could takeoff, fight, land and know what every single control was I could not perform for the camera. I would have been mortified if I crashed 3 times in a row. I would have a panic attack and passed out in my chair. Lol

[@jakeslouw3416]

Some CLASSIC GR flying. Or shall we say attempted take-offs..........

[@wyvernthefox9683]

So I know this message is at the wrong channel, but I'ma send it anyway. Cap, huge thanks to your Naval OPs group on their work for CC2. It's been one of my favorite "mindless" naval game and when I saw the update was because of the GRNO side I got so happy that a channel I absolutely LOVE watching got such a big change in a game I can actually play.

[@grimreapers]

Pleasure, looking forward to play again.

[@Zet0rius]

Every time I see a GR video with warbirds my day gets a lot better, so thanks again guys, much appreciated! 👌

[@dexlab7539]

I thought “Vodka Scramble” involved liquor and eggs 😂

[@michaelhoward3534]

I thought Cap was being oddly quiet during those "take offs"

[@grimreapers]

I was howling with abuse!

[@susanmontgomery7121]

Nice to see the GR are improving their take-offs.

[@kevhancock2889]

Great mission guys miss old school GR ,crashy takeoffs ,formation landings and sillies just like the good old days. Thanks matrix top mission,love the kola map would like to see more missions on this map .I'm amazed you guys haven't made use of the Olympic ski ramp yet though 😂 well done fellas keep it up

[@sammysmirh3889]

Another fun video. Thanks Cap

[@mandalorion]

>Look kids, don't drink and fly, you'll never take off, let alone land.

[@kensteele8689]

The takeoffs gave me the biggest laugh I've had in months!

[@banditkfk1463]

Nice take offs😂

[@JacktheW77]

That “50% survival rate” for the I-16s on takeoff last episode was supposed to be a one-time joke, not foreshadowing…

[@edwardlittle5686]

Instead of flying a mission with "simulated hangovers", why not do one where everyone has to be slightly drunk and still drinking. And every time someone does something stupid everyone has to take a drink. I'm sure we can trust the fine boys in GR to the honor system. That would be spicy!

[@FelixstoweFoamForge]

That is actually an excellent idea. Seconded.

[@cover_now3425]

Who says many of us dont do that by default

[@FelixstoweFoamForge]

@@cover_now3425 I certainly do. Unfortunately it often ends in unintended violation of the air-ground interface.

[@dobster5819]

Lots of bots today report them please.

[@chuckmorris8130]

As a Russian bot, I'm here to refute this call to report them.

[@FelixstoweFoamForge]

That looked like a lot of fun! Couple of questions though; what were those JU88s made of, inflamabillium? And did they forget to take any gunners? Good stuff though, especially the take offs.

[@chrisk_nfl4120]

I have a big soft spot for the I-16. Such a fun little fighter

[@icin4d]

Agree. Take offs, landings and engine management are fairly easy to get right. I love this little bird.😊

[@chrisk_nfl4120]

@@icin4d did a really good job in WW2 despite being more or less outclassed. I watched a Rex's Hanger vid on it, loved seeing what it can do against these bombers in DCS

[@ohiobrian8993]

No trim, roll, low altitude short range, guns suck, hard to takeoff, harder to land, overheats easily, but otherwise it's fine. 😊 I'm surprised matrix didn't yank the radios as this plane didn't have one.

[@FleetDefenderRA5]

The Ju-88 did not stand up well; great mission!

[@gunzelloharris3348]

GR takeoffs are ruff in that lil thing!! WOW!!😮🤕😂 cool Vid CAP!👍

[@FleetDefenderRA5]

GR landings are even tougher!

[@gunzelloharris3348]

@@FleetDefenderRA5 LMFAO!! Heck Yeah!!🤣🤣🤣

[@johnwolf2829]

Almost everyone died on take-off, lousy comms, crap aircraft .... nd half the team went after the wrong targets. The most authetic Russian mission I have seen yet! This makes me wonder -- can this system be worked with World War ONE battles?

[@harryspeakup8452]

The take-off disasters are very poignant

[@tu1jcas1]

I was wondering why no commentary from Cap on all the take off crashes!!!!!!

[@paez4779]

Ive been wanting to see an i16 campaign.

[@azoriusmage]

Who knew taking off was the biggest cause of death in WW2?

[@bytesback.]

Welcome to bot comment central.

Memphis Cap! 😂

[@DarkAgeTM]

You could at least give ushankas to the pilots.

[@mattmcbee7109]

What were the escort fighters doing??

[@Acetheskyhook]

lol rough take off. I get it tho. eff that plane taking off.

[@landenlikesfrogs6538]

Bots on bots god damn why

[@cowlevelcrypto2346]

Were they using meters in 1943?

[@Pillow_Cat]

1875 sign of Metric Convention 1899 framing law of recomendational use 1917 law of obligatory use 1925 "...everyone who wish no use of metric system line up in front of this wall..."

[@cowlevelcrypto2346]

@@Pillow_Cat According to Google, though it was discussed for over 100 years, No one actually used the metric systems until the 1950's, including the U.K. It was on the Internet, so it must be true.😄
