This Sunday, July 3rd, the Syndicate will host the new Roye, June 1918 again, now with several fixes and improvements. It will feature some new gameplay elements that are now possible because of update 1.020.
In short:-Rolling mission sets. Every 30 mins new Objectives will be communicated to each side through subtitles (and repeated).
-You can take off during a 5 minute time window every 15 minutes. Each mission should be completed within an hour.
-Two-seaters have specific objectives, photo-recon and bombing. Each target has to be photographed before being able to destroy it with bombs. Just follow the subtitles.
-Only if the two-seater makes it back safely to his home base after taking photos will it count as a success.
-AAA (MG and guns) over the trenches. Low-level dogfights should not end well.
-New battle area, around the river L'Avre. SW corner of the RoF map. You will see some new towns and villages here! (as of 1.019
)
-Planeset: June 1918 with the Brisfit FalconII, Breguet, Se5a, SPAD XIII and Fokker Dr 1, Fokker DVII(F) and DFW.
Important notes: - There is a bug in version 1.020 that prevents us to lock the loadout and skins on the server. Please look at the name and picture of the aircraft you choose in the game map and use the correct skin & loadout.
- Only bombers are allowed to carry bombs! Only aircraft slots with "photo" in the name can be used for a photo recon mission!
- You can only see subtitles when in cockpit/spectator view.
- If you are in an aircraft and you want to change aircraft type or load-out, don't worry because the plane will be returned to the pool when you hit exit (unless airfields are closed!)
- To make photographs, simply choose the correct aircraft slot, fly over the target area at the specified height and subtitles will inform you when photos are being taken and when the job is done
