Why was this thread moved to “general bugs”?? I wasn’t reporting a bug…just asking how many people use a game feature.

Sorry if this has been addressed but I didn’t find anything when I searched: will the DCS F-14B ever get the capability to drop JDAMS? Has there been any discussion on it?

I was wondering if any of you play with random system failures turned on? I don’t have the time to fly an hour mission only to have to RTB b/c my jet broke. But I know others do have the ability to put in a 4-5 hour block of flying. does it add to the immersion for you? Or is it just something to increase the challenge. I’m debating flipping a couple on but not sure if the juice is worth the squeeze

I know….I feel embarrassed that real fighter pilots look at posts like that and send them to their friends so they can laugh at how guys who fly computer sims think that means they can do the real thing. It’s a game guys…it just is. Enjoy the realism that it brings but cmon. mover…..please don’t tell your friends about this…let’s keep it between us huh?

Yep…I didn’t know locking your own missles was an issue until last night when I rippled 4 missiles at 3 aircraft- and wondering why the target ranges were incorrect- watched my aim-120s all fly away in a single file line all the way to their death

My bet is that your are not holding weapon release all the way through the entire 7 seconds or so. Let us know

Was (is) the Mirage 2000C able to carry any fox-3 missiles? Or just the later Mirage 2000-5? I love the mirage but only 2 fox 1s and two fox-2s is tough. I know it was an interceptor…just makes it a tough play in MP

Yay! thanks man….knew it would be something I would never find

Ok. Fair enough Ok. Fair enough

Ok…I’m sure it’s in the new manual somewhere but I only had about 20 minutes to play a quick mission and haven’t had time to search it. So forgive but when I turn on my red radio, I get a bunch of ***** across the sceen. Can someone give me a hint as to what I’m looking for in the new changes that would do that? Green works, but looks different. Red is the same no matter what I hit. Just a general change that I need to look into is fine…I know you guys are busy too. I just have such little time to hunt stuff down at work

Point? People like to vent man nothing more

Ok…I’ll bite. I fly the Mig 21 in VR all the time….what’s the problem? I don’t notice any visual issues and I’ve never had a problem flipping switches. To me, it’s similar to the F-14 due to no MFDs

There’s a lot of variables. If the bandit is hot and close, there’s no reason why it should drop UNLESS, the bandit is below you and your altitude is fairly low. Make sure he isn’t notching as well. Assuming you are doing that, then all I can say is I feel ya. ive had aim-7s fly off into the sunset wiyh the “lost” notification on my HUD seconds after firing. But I’ve posted tracks before long ago, raised the issue (as have others) and have been assured all is WAD. So I have to assume it is. but like you, I find it hard to believe that the F-18C radar would lose STT lock on a hot (or flanking frankly) target less than 10 miles away. all of that said, performance is MUCH better than in times past. Maybe I’m paying more attention now since aim-120s aren’t working well (pending completion of the new guidance stuff)

What about mk-84s? I guess I mean: is it the CCIP system on the aircraft or drag/energy issues with specific bombs ?

I’m not sure how a track file helps you with a video display issue in my hardware. Doesn’t even show up on track files sometimes. There are dozens of video clips of this issue on this thread alone…over a years worth

‘Cause he’s a real life professional fighter pilot with 1000’s of actual flight hours- as opposed to hundreds of virtual flight hours on DCS

I still experience it a lot but ONLY during dawn/dusk. Has something to do with the lighting…maybe the intensity. If I fly in the day or night, no issue….only orange breaking/setting light when the sun is above the horizon. I play open beta with drivers updated

Mine too. Use them all the time. Do you think it’s a forum-wide conspiracy to hide this “mod script” from you and convince you it’s actually an available weapon? we’re telling you, BAP on center station (bombs). Unless you are running an old version

SorelRo, hey man, thank you for this. I really appreciate you receiving the complaints as constructive criticism (what mine were intended to be anyway) and addressing. This is exactly what was needed and- whether it clears stuff up for me or not- shows that you are intent on producing an experience and not just a collection of missions that we can take or leave.
