Operation Pontus: general information
petritis replied to baltic_dragon's topic in Operation Pontus Campaign
Hey, sirrah! Sorry for the late response. Could you please provide us the last code that you notted. I mean the one you used in your last mission. Petritis. -
Hey, Cerulean. This is a known DCS reported issue that affects all the campaigns. You are correct, you can proceed with the campaign using the new code. The only thing that this issue affects is the weather and time progress. A work around in this issue is to fly the same mission using the same code take off and land. In this way you will be able to use the end mission button and proceed to the "next mission". Petritis.

Hey, phobocop! First, we would like to thank you for your purchase. a) For the weather, in most cases the weather is good and you are able to strike the target from a safe altitude, even in cases where there is bigger cloud coverage, by changing the attack heading you will be able to have a clear view of the target. Keep in mind also that with bad weather even real pilots will not be able to perform a GBU strike. Luckily DCS World and Pontus campaign gives you the freedom to choose weapons that use pre planned coordinates. b) Your XO, like you already mention, is giving you advices on how to proceed. It is really up to you whether you will follow. For example, when he is suggesting a SEAD sortie you do not have to use only harms since you can suppress the enemy air defenses with other weapons, like mavericks for example. A mixed payload works better in my opinion. c) When you are planning a mission to strike for example, you can use the given by your XO coordinates. For SEAD since you know the area that is active (mentioned in your XO's status message) you can use the F10 map and locate enemy Air defenses. And finally for Air to Air you know form the briefing and kneeboard pages the AORs where enemy fighters are flying from. d) About the "I just feel like I'm flying the same mission over and over again and not getting anything from it". The campaign starts with a fixed mission and then the rest of them are dynamic. You can decide either to follow your XO's suggestions either plan your own way to liberate the 8x areas which is the goal of the campaign. You can see the progress through the briefing picture after the end of your XO's message. Apart from the dynamic missions there are 10x special task missions and 2x intercept tasks that pop up that should provide plenty of different gameplay. From my understanding it's mostly that we currently don't make it so easy to understand how the progress is recorded and that is our intention to improve through some new triggers that 2.7 offers. Thanks again Petritis.

Operation Pontus: general information
petritis replied to baltic_dragon's topic in Operation Pontus Campaign
Hey! First of all we would like to thank you for your purchase. Unfortunately end mission bug is a DCS related issue, reported to ED. You can cancel and use the newly acquired code and the mission will progress. The only thing that will not change is the time and the weather conditions on the mission. In case you want the weather and time to advance, there is a workaround. Once you start a new mission take off and land immediately in this way you will be able to press the end mission button. -

At mission 7 and still asked to SEAD
petritis replied to mporlier's topic in Operation Pontus Campaign
Hey thank you for your feedback. We are constantly trying to improve Operation Pontus based on user feedback. We updated the campaign for the new DCS 2.7 version and we are working some new features on the campaign that i dare to say that it will be an upgrade rather than just and update. -
Hey the mission is fixed and should be up in the following update on Wednesday.

Mission 1 does not advance to Mission 2
petritis replied to Winfield_Gold's topic in UH-1H Argo Campaign
Hey i just replayed mission 1 and after landing i managed to get 100 points and advance to mission 2. So perhaps as Greg said to missed to wait for the mission complete message after landing. Please us know if this is the issue or something else. -

Mission 1 does not advance to Mission 2
petritis replied to Winfield_Gold's topic in UH-1H Argo Campaign
Hey, can you please check whether your collective after landing goes all the way down. After landing press the " - " multiple times until collective goes all the way down. There might be a calibration issue with your HOTAS. Please try this and let me know. If you did all the steps correct during mission there should be no problem proceeding to the next. -
Strike TGT Circle and Co-ordinates don't match
petritis replied to Oilman100's topic in Operation Pontus Campaign
After the debrief you have to wait a few seconds and then to the will see the red circle on the given coordinates. Also if you click on the red circle you see something like "strike" as a label. We are also working on a major update regarding strike tasks based on players feedback. Hope that helps. -

At mission 7 and still asked to SEAD
petritis replied to mporlier's topic in Operation Pontus Campaign
Hey, this coordinates do not represent the target building, but rather the AOR. In order to be sure that you are seeing the correct building you can click on the red circle and something like "strike" This should be the correct target. Also, could you please share the loadout of the SEAD package. Thanks Petritis -
problema uscita missione 1
petritis replied to rob s's topic in 373vFS_Greg, 373vFS_Petritis, Baltic Dragon
Hey this video might help you with the AWACS check in. You need to open your kneeboard and go to matrix page. Kneeboard opens with Right Shift + K and then you can change pages using [ ] key pads.
