"Estimates at best are twelve hours until the target has completed its repairs and resupply," said Murg. "What is the operation window?" asked Quelle. If we are going to act, we have to act now." Nobody outside of this room must know what we are planning. The more people we involve, the more we risk having intel get out. "Most of the Sovereignty Task Force is otherwise engaged, and time is not on our side. "I say we ask Admiral Vodani for proper support, and mount a full-scale assault." "We simply don't have the firepower, Major," said Commander Taggott of the Katarn's Claw. "There's no way that our squadrons can acquire the target and make it out safely, even with our support." "It's suicide," said Captain Daly of the Regis. And with Barand's forces constantly on the move…." "With so much Imperial and civilian traffic in and out of the area, it's difficult to catalogue each ship. "That is more troublesome to determine," said Murg with a heavy sigh. "Are there any other major ships in the area?" asked Captain Bill "Owtlaw" Bradley of the Frigate Rehz'nor. "It's reliable," said Murg, grasping the back of the chair in front of him. "Are we sure about the intel?" asked Captain Quelle. Docked near the station was an Imperial Mark-II class Star Destroyer, a Victory-class Star Destroyer, and numerous other craft and transports of varying sizes and designs. Tufts of smoke whirled around as those who had death sticks puffed away at them, the orange ends glowing brilliantly before dying.Įmitting from the projector lay the image of an Imperial XQ5 platform. The holographic projector in the middle of the table lit the darkened room. The one exception, of course, was Lieutenant Colonel Chris 'Jalb_k' Reynolds, OC of Rogue Squadron. Only Captain Quelle and the other senior captains of the task force had joined him, each seated around the table. It’s hard to do that if you can read profane or offensive stuff on other peoples’ planes.Mogazz Murg stood in the private briefing room aboard the CRS Vigilant. Now when it comes to tail numbers, I suspect they blank them out for that very reason though - to keep the game G-rated. I’ve put some pretty messed up, profane ■■■■ as my call sign just for laughs back when the sim first launched, and if it was an actual word, every single time ATC has said it while communicating with me, no matter how profane it was." When a plane uses one of the generic models without an actual airline name and flight number, which make up a large number of the models we see for AI traffic, the plane gets called “Generic” + last 3 characters of the tail number.Īnd secondly, the author of that article is wrong. When referring to a plane without a proper call sign, It would normally say the model of the plane + the last 3 characters of the tail number, like “TBM 1 Tango Bravo” or “Cessna 1 Mike Charlie” for traffic that uses an actual “known” plane model. You hear “generic” when AI traffic doesn’t have an actual airline call sign + flight number (like American 345, United 452, Lufthansa 649) and said traffic is using a generic plane model.
Other real life players “don’t exist” in your instance of the game other than visually. 100% of the ATC chatter you hear is either directed at you, or other AI / RTO planes. You don’t hear ANY ATC comms from other live players. First, you don’t hear “generic” because of other peoples’ profane call signs.You may have misinterpreted what that article is saying, and the author of that article is 100% wrong. This should be known to players on here and I found a good thread on this on the Official Forum.
