Oh shit right forgot what server I was on

2019-09-12 23:53:09 UTC  

😂

Is SQUAD more prone to lag with environments than ArmA?

2019-09-12 23:55:19 UTC  

It depends on your specs. SQUAD definitely runs better then ARMA but also suffers from lag in regards to too many assets on screen

2019-09-12 23:55:54 UTC  

But it is being continueously optimized

2019-09-12 23:56:30 UTC  

What are good specs to run it at a somewhat consistent framerate? I recently got a new PC and I think it'll be up to the challenge

2019-09-12 23:58:18 UTC  

Alouettes would spot and shoot the shit out of SWAPO whenever they were in a chase. The descriptions I've read of what the 20mm could do were pretty grotesque.

Is there a way to tell the difference between a Rhodie Alouette and a South African one?

2019-09-12 23:59:31 UTC  

Yes and no

2019-09-13 00:00:04 UTC  

Look out for SAAF or Rhodie roundel

2019-09-13 00:01:22 UTC  

Though sometimes there would be no roundel usually with SAAF helicopters operating in Rhodesian ops in order to conceal SA support.

2019-09-13 00:03:12 UTC  

Saaf roundel seen there

2019-09-13 00:03:41 UTC  

Oh yes, I believe I saw that as an entry in HAH's last patch poll

2019-09-13 00:03:51 UTC  

I prefer the Rhodesian one personally

2019-09-13 00:05:31 UTC  

Saaf roundels as seen in op Uric

2019-09-13 00:05:51 UTC  

Ja our roundels used to look cooler

2019-09-13 00:06:05 UTC  

Round with a springbok inside

2019-09-13 00:06:56 UTC  

Or like that without the springbok

2019-09-13 00:07:21 UTC  

I think they're all good, but something about a lion & tusk on green is really nice.

2019-09-13 00:08:11 UTC  

SAAF P51 Korean War

2019-09-13 00:09:11 UTC  

Agreed Rhodesian airforce roundel is nicer

2019-09-13 00:09:55 UTC  

That said, I prefer Oryx > Alouette

2019-09-13 00:12:17 UTC  

Interesting how the Rhodies never got any of our pumas

2019-09-13 00:13:10 UTC  

They got our elands, alouettes, r1's and a few buffels and fn mags but that's about it.

2019-09-13 00:13:27 UTC  

If they held out a bit longer they may have got some. Maybe even ratels

2019-09-13 00:14:10 UTC  

I thought SA pulled support after Operation Eland?

2019-09-13 00:14:52 UTC  

At least, that's what Wikipedia says, and they've *never* been wrong, *ever*

2019-09-13 00:14:56 UTC  

Nope

2019-09-13 00:15:46 UTC  

Support ended in 1979 iirc. Hence Op Uric being a joint SA/Rhode op

2019-09-13 00:17:00 UTC  

Remember that SA support of Rhodesia was clandestine. It had to be or the international community would condemn SA to hell. Which it did anyway

2019-09-13 04:45:39 UTC  

Hey @Springbok, do you perchance have any pictures of the interior of a *Rhodesian* de Havilland Vampire?

2019-09-13 06:08:43 UTC  

@Springbok lol a few FN Mags... rhodesia had more south aftican FN mags than the SADF

2019-09-13 06:11:34 UTC  

@Colonel Clint rhodies also only wore shorts till 76 or 77 due to the fact they had to start camo creaming any exposed skin

2019-09-13 06:13:37 UTC  

@Springbok I honestly dont think putting in the G6 is a good idea. Maybe as a unit that stays there and then automatically shoots when they implement arty

2019-09-13 06:18:36 UTC  

But as a drivable vehicle...

2019-09-13 08:11:25 UTC  

@Kooijpolloi there is no AI so it would have to be driveable. I'm not a fan of off map artillery to be honest
