I'm too sexy for my new pilot body.

Done repair, deleted mods etc, still can't hear any flight on the same frequency except my own flight. I had 8 F16s and 3 F18s on the same frequency, all AI told to report engaging and kills, but only my own flight reported, even though several of the F18s also fired.

This happens quite often, only really flown F16 on Kola, so it might be F16 only bug. But I can not contact ATC, this has happened several times with Lakselv/Banak and today it happened at Bodø too. Can not contract ATC. I tell them inbounds, but never get a reply

The F4 is the only aircraft that shakes like that, I've tested most of the other ones, and the F4 is the only one that does so.

goddammit. I'm gone from the F-16 for 4 weeks and I've completely forgotten the most basic operation That was embarrassing, nothing to see here! Move a long. Thanks for helping out a silly old man.

I got a nasty suprise when I was leading 8 F16s towards 12 Su33s out over the Norwegian sea, my MAN RNG knob didn't work, so couldn't lock on to the Su33s... I have an F-16 Winwing Orion 2 throttle, I had it in AA mode, I had master arm on and AIM120C selected. But the know would not work, I did a test both online and single player it did not work, in my self made mission or ED free flight. Tested it on the F18 free flight and it worked as it should(radar elevation) It's just the F16 it doesn't work on. (yes I've checked that it's actually bound. ) Track from my mission, This is the first time I'm using the F16 since the patch that dropped the F4, before the patch it worked.

When you do some CAS and half the city starts to smoke.

Flying the Kiowa and looking at the track. It appears RPGs don't fire RPG rounds but I'm guessing tank shell? Or some AAA round? Given Afghanistan is coming, improved infantry models and animations. It would be be nice if the Rocket propelled granade. Was a rocket and granade not a shell.

Welcome to FOB Husky First Episode in FOB Husky: QRF Close Air Support. Marines are in trouble in the city, and need support. A relief column is on the way, but they need some air support. A successful rocket strafe takes out almost all the enemies(and nobody lived in that building I hit by accident). I then spend 10 minutes trying to take out two guys with RPGs. One guy survived the original rocket strafe and then survived 4 gun strafes too(with bullets hitting all around him.) He also almost got me like 4 times with the RPG. Also my wingman, Howling Mad Murdock did a very stupid thing, He will be missed.

Close one..

As far as I know there was never planned a MiG21 FC4, MiG21 is Mag3 and not ED, so probably not something ED can just do

Welcome to FOB Husky

Just one mag with 150 rounds.

Since 2.9 it's a bit of a crap shoot. You still need to use a dedicated server. They've mostly fixed your aircraft randomly crashing into the ground. Air to air is very hit and miss, even short dogfights of 2 minutes (HOBS and JHMCS instantly breaks tracks now and then) Ground attack seems to mostly work most of the time. Aircraft like F14 about F4 breaks tracks more than many other modules. I can sometimes fly a 90 minute missions. And everything works great. Track works perfectly each time. I still need to run through the track between 4-8 times to get various angles etc. But at least it doesn't break. Other times a 5 minute mission, breaks also right away (like many dogfight vidoes in the F4.

I ask a ground unit to hold fire, it still shots, I ask a ground unit to hold, it still wanders(I turned off disperse under fire) I set ground unit to immortal it still dies... I understand that some orders seem to cancel out other order(like turning off AI, seems to nullify immortal) But why can't the orders be absolute. Hold(Don't move an inch. Hold fire, don't fire under any circumstances. Fire at point(only fire at that point noting else) Restrict targets air targets(stop shooting at air targets, this one doesn't seem to work ever) Immortal( don't die) Invisible(AI shouldn't see the unit) etc. I just want my targets to stand still, fire at the point I've told them, and nothing else, don't move about, don't start blowing up stuff I've asked you not to blow up.

Have they specified, in what conditions or always? Afghanistan is not a great helicopter country. So if their main experience is in Afghanistan. That might not be valid at sea level.

I like the current system, but then I got lots of buttons. I use my Winwing F18 throttle to control the. MMS etc. And then i use the various buttons and hats ony my Blackhawk collective grip to control the AI. Once I get used to and remember the buttons I can fly ut just fine without the need for the AI hud. I get my helicopter were I want it. Hand it over to the AI, jump to the left. Do the MMS stuff, while make minor corrections to the AI to get a good view with the MMS.

Rocketman!

ED are making new infantry models with better animation. Don't know know how easy those will be to use for modding though.

Once the correct parts of Afghanistan is out. You could probably just make a campaign based on thr book Scouts Out!

Yeah last year we got 3 new toys. 2 maps and 1 aircraft. Of these 1 map has not gotten any updates since release, and well the F15 has it's own drama. In the span of 2 months this year. We will get 2 maps and 3 aircraft.
