No wonder F-4s usually sticks with "carpet bombing" instead of a "precision strike"... I'm either doing something terrible wrong or its really, really hard to hit the bullseye dropping at 8000ft AGL, since even the slightest variation on angle, G load, speed or altitude will put the bomb several meters away from the intended target... this taking in to account a very clear target, without AAA or SAMs... Is any F-4 topgun out there that can make it happen???...if so please send me the video! Blessed be the enginner who invented CCIP.... By the way, I'm getting better with the "rudder reversals"

Hey Reflected! Once again, before start...what a masterpiece! This campaign is awsome! As I reached event 9, I'm stuck, my dive bomb performance isn't good, I did undestand the theory, I'm not the kind of person that gives up easily but, even performing by the book on the numbers, (45 degress, 0,76gs, aiming at the RAP droping at 11500ft) I can't hit the box at the bullseye, I do can put 4 bombs about 15/20 mts from it at the innercircle... sometimes only 5 mts away but after trying about 60 runs, I'm not getting any better... and I couldn't found anyone on youtube performing the mission... Can you do a video demonstrating it? I meant... piper at the RAP...up there...

I've been playing this campaign and it keeps getting better and better... Reflected never let us down and keep doing outstanding campaigns in a level way above the others! Top quality product that only an aviation lover can achieve... Congratulations for that! I missed the "grade" system like in the F-14 speed and angels campaign (My favourite so far, but mig killers are fighting for the position)... Althought the grade system sometimes might hurt your huge virtual fighter pilot ego when you have an "below average" grade, its also very gratificating when you get an "above average" (And I've played the speed and angels until I got all of the "above averages", really felt like I deserve a F-14 type rating on my actual pilot license...) The only issue that I've found so far is that for some reason DCS can't load the next task when the mission is broken in tasks and finish the mission incomplete, (but I think its DCS fault), and I manage to keep playing by loading the next mission file on the mission editor... works for me and there the next task works as well and I play until RTB, but I dont get the campaign progression points, I have to skip missions to keep advancing...(happened on events 2 and 3 so far) And as a humble suggestion, I think it would be great if you release some videos performing some maneuvers like "the egg" or especially the "rudder reversals", I know, I know... they are well explained in the briefing files (and ... yes I read all of them) but, seeing the maneuver after studing about it woulb be great... I'm starting to feel confortable with the "egg", but the rudder reversal is still a disaster... Thanks for the attention and again...congrats! Great job!

I just complete this campaign and I didn't understand its ending.... it there going to be a sequel? I don't get it... Why the russians that didn't got involved during any other mission, Why they would nuke Guam? especially because they hit their Chinese allies retreating and USA assets as well.... Why would Russia nuke China and USA? A suicide move for sure... The campaign is great.... simple but very fun, but I didn't understand this apocalipct end... Is there any sort of explanation for that? Thanks!

Hi! guys! I've played mission 9 twice and was unable to complete it... even though I've destroyed all enemy fighters in the area and score some hits strafing with the gun as instructed by darkstar... I also noticed that the choppers did aproach but never got too close to our friends in the ground, maybe because there was still some enemys units alive and the F-15 performance was very poor, wasting weapons on the same targets, missing targets and even hitting friends with bombs... You should run the mission or maybe do some sort of fail safe trigger to allow the mission to be completed...

Hey There! The first target/waypoint 7 is now in the midlle of a river, maybe they update the map or something... but please check it out... the building on the intel picture is no longer there... but the units are... so if I hit the river I still have a "Target 1 destroyed"...

First things first... this isn't personal... I'm just a very disappointed customer. I've been playing DCS since I was a teenager and the game was called LOMAC (Lock on Modern Air Combat) I've about 1600hs on DCS according to steam, and I've played about 50 campaigns so far (I think that campaigns are a great way to become proeficient in a module and enjoy DCS), so I'm really used to AI misbehaviors and bugs, but they shouldn't keep you to complete the mission and definely not ruin the immersion in DCS. Agile Spear is the most bugged campaign that I've played so far, and its not only minor bugs neither one or two missions, the first half was ok but missions 8 until 15 have major issues. (And you can't even find people playing those missions on youtube, sometimes I check youtube to see if someone played it, what was suppose to happen... but my guess is no one did it because the missions are broke (8 until 15) I really believe that it must've been worked at some point in the past, so maybe I had bad luck on timming buying it and yes you've been updating it, however I don't think you played the missions because update after update mission 8 was still broken and unplayable until the last fix (still with some minor bugs like the apaches "Badger One" don't take off anymore). I've been complaining about it since august, (not overnight) So months aren't a reasonable amount of time to fix it?!... And after those fixes did you play it? I Know you may be short on staff and overload with work but still, it doesn't worth to release a fix, don't play the mission and it is still broken. Currently I'm a real life airline pilot so I guess you know I don't have all the time in the world to play DCS at home with VR... and I've wasted so many hours trying to play this campaign and this is very frustrating, so I gave up on this. When I speak about good developers, take reflected simulations as an example, they build far more complex missions (like in Speed and Angels they even give you a grade after you perform a maneuver) and DCS update after update they keep working like a chime.(No bugs whatsoever). This is just my opinion about it, again don't take it personally but I really wanted my money back on this one.

The last half of this campaign was really buggy, with AI aircraft taking down my targets and all the threats before I even have the chance to get there... at some missions the objectives are being complete while you still in cruise to the target...JTAC points enemies with smoke in the middle of nowhere and so on... there is a mission that you have to monitor a convoy and only fire back (mission 12 or 13)...but as soon as they fire at some allies tanks and you are clear to attack they are immediatly obliterated by allies AI tanks... so you've waited 30 min holding after a cruise flight there just to get a good job! RTB... some enemies also don't defend theirselfs and are sitting ducks on mission 14... I really felt like this campaign has been abandoned...maybe because its a little old and A10 is and old module as well but if you sell something you should make sure its still playable, (And I really wish I had my money back) I know that DCS is an ever updating simulator and bugs will occurs, but good developers are able to dodge them with fail safe triggers, or quickly arrest them as soon as someone point them... I had to wait months to complete it and it was still very buggy until the end...So I gave up on this but left my review about it.

Hello Again! I was excited to finally proceed on this campaign but... mission 8 is still buggy even after the recent fix. This time I've tried 3 times, on the first two attempts there were some SU-35s crashing in the airfield and then Pig-2 stops and never takes off... and I figure ok, I can do it alone, but after dealing with the target assigned by jtac1 and telling Badger 1 to advance.... nothing happens even if I kill all of them (before the fix, I was retasked at this time to return and rearm for another task). On my last attempt pig 2 was able to take off...but then again after dealing with the target assigned by jtac1 and telling Badger 1 to advance.... nothing happens. (I also notice that the 3 Apaches AH-64D never take off even after calling Badger1) I even tried a fourth time... reinstalled this campaign, and RTB whitout being retasked to do so after killing all enemies... no luck... i've played again a fifth time after today's update (30/october) and it still the same... I couldn't add the track file because it was 62mb... After the fix, have you guys played the mission?... this is very frustrating...

I hope the fix for mission 8 is in the next DCS update... guys have you had a chance to check it?

That depends on witch one you would like to play, it can be the A-10CII or the A10CII tank killer, or just the A10c, depends if you have the full module and its upgrades... A10C, A10CII and A10CII tank killer have their differences...

Hi guys! I'm trying to complete mission 8 however I'm almost sure that there is some sort of a broken trigger... After destroying the tanks columm and RTB to rearm and refuel for retasking as instructed, then fly to a new waypoint to rescue a convoy hijacked by 4 BTRs..., sound simple to eliminate the BTRs without damaging the remmaining vehicles of the convoy... But: 1-Jtac said that it started lasing with white smoke...but it never happens... 2-The convoy is off-road in the forest...ok I found it and carefully destroyed all the 4 BTRs... but nothing happens, radio menu has no new options after that and I've tried several times and the results are always the same... Please check this mission.... I love this campaign and I want to finish it! (ps... I'm also waiting for mission 7 final points fix...)
