  1. Big thanks, for two reasons : First, for that campaign. It is amazing, and a true work of art in scripting, voice acting, the overall mission dynamics, everything ! It manages to top my former favorite, which is your Red Flag M2000 (mostly because of Max, I have to say, although it is also an amazing campaign). Second, because I discovered Kevin Miller and his books ! I grew up on Flight of the Intruder by Stephen Coonts (which I just started re-re-re-re-(...)-reading after finishing all three KM books) and it feels just as gripping. Who knew that a carrier trap at night in bad weather would be so agonizingly entertaining ?!! So big up to you (and the voice actors, testers, etc) and keep'em coming ! Can I wish for an A-6 Intruder and a Jake Grafton campaign ? Please ? Pretty please with cherry on top ? :D
  2. FYI (sorry for the necro but it's in case someone is stuck too) : for taxi, you need to wait a bit after the F10 radio call trigger pops up and really press space *at the fragged taxi time*. It gives enough time for the 3rd A10 group to take off in front of you, otherwise they get stuck or never catch up. Otherwise it's doable, even if the gazelles are tough opponents ! Select flares (preset #8) and drop a lot of them ! HTH, Buzz.
  3. Update : mission is now *completable* on current stable (2.5.6.52437) ! Onwards for more Max adventures. :) :) :)
  4. Nope nope nope ! Enjoy your vacations, I can wait. But thanks ! I have other campaigns to fly in the Mirage and I'm learning to fly the A10C (and looking forward to playing The Enemy Within once I'm proficient in that plane). :joystick: Also, as a French person, I have to say the writing and voice acting in the M2000 campaigns are awesome. :thumbup:
  5. Also, for some reason, I can't change the starting spot like I did to workaround the bugs in the Caucasus campaign. Quite frustrating. I love those campaigns and their storyline but gosh are they brittle.
  6. ** Update : mission is now *completable* on current stable (2.5.6.52437) ! ** TLDR: bugged taxi AI + hold on 03L causes unescapable mission fail (It's the mission where you escort a B-1B) On current stable (2.5.6.49798 ) AI wingmen don't stop during taxi and crash into you. This can be usually avoided by taxiing fast and taking off without waiting. Unfortunately, this mission actually requires player to hold on 03L. Meaning you get crashed into the back by wingmen (ouch) who, to add insult to injury, push you over the hold line and you get a "mission failed" on top of a pile of broken mirages. :cry: On current beta (2.5.6.50979 ) I think the first wingman does stop behind you but gets rammed by the lead of the following flight (stupid Max, didn't pay attention, probably was thinking about that sexy ATIS voice). A workaround (or a fix) would be much appreciated. I'd like to hear the rest of the story. :)
