Multiplayer Deserted!

Postby Fozzer » Thu Aug 20, 2009 3:47 am

Hello Multiplayer Chums... :)...!

Have you noticed how quiet its been on Sim V Multiplayer for the past few weeks?... :'(...!

We used to enjoy regular flights and on-line meetings at one time!

I regularly pop into the Server..... http://cockpit.netfrag.org:81/ ...and rarely see anyone now!

Has the novelty worn off?...;)... ;D...!

I would spend more time connected to Multiplayer during the day, if only I was able to use the Default ATC at the same time!

That is the one thing I really miss as soon as I am on-line!... :'(...!

I don't suppose there is any way of enjoying both together, without using "Vatsim", "Teamspeak", or whatever?... ::)...!

I always make full use FS 2004 Default ATC for all my off-line, Solo flights, so I miss it as soon as I connect to Multiplayer, to check who is on-line!... :'(...!

..so, there you go, Chums...any chance of a bit more activity on our Sim V Multiplayer Channel?... ;D...!

Paul...G-BPLF...FS 2004...FS Navigator...and a nice Bendix-King Nav/Comm Radio Stack!... :-*.... ;D....!

"Hello!....anyone out there?....".... ::)... ;).... ;D....!

Hi Paul!  I'm currently setting up another for the weekends, I hope to be starting it soon.

Would you be interested in redoing your Route66 trip as an online tour? I would be up for it. :)

Noticed this as well, I try to get on as often as I can but no seems to join in, very lonely. :(

I would love to have a huge group of people online at once, that would be good fun. But differing time zones play havoc. >:(

What is the largest number of people you have ever been online with?

Largest group of people I ever saw online was at the time Jimbo used to plan his tours. Maybe 10 or 12 lads flying the same route. Very nice. Nowadays it's very quiet indeed. I can't fly the weekend hops due to work or other things (aka a little daughter) that need attention. I try to fly a hop or two from the hoplist during the week, but with this nice weather I rather be outside having a nice cold beer...

Crash ;)

It is always interesting, noticing the different Time zones....;)..!

When I trundle downstairs at around 9:00 AM each morning, I notice that our Australian Chums are already on line, (and ready to fly on Multiplayer), whereas our American Chums are still tucked up in Bed nice and cosy!... :)...!

If I pop on Multiplayer in the mornings in England, I sometime bump into Mazza (in Australia)..... :-*...!

I regularly peek into http://cockpit.netfrag.org:81/ as the day progresses, and if I spot anyone interesting on Multiplayer, I sometimes wheel one of my piston props out of my Hangar and maybe join them...;)...!

I'm always checking the server status but no one is ever online so I don't get on myself... I'll start getting on though. That might attract others to join :D

And notice how alive their session is! ;) ;D

As a matter of fact, I got on last night, and a few minutes later Mitch was on, and we enjoyed a nice flight over Cuba while we talked about my family's struggles with communism ;D
