paulca Posted March 11, 2016 Posted March 11, 2016 I have noticed that the higher the threat of the target area you are firing into the longer the Maverick will take to lock on. :) Consider the single mission "River Raider" where there are 6 bunkers, each one in turn is better defended. If you decide to waste MAV on the first 3 bunkers they lock on instantly at 5-6nm. However when you come to the final bunker the MAV will just not lock on. I ended up diving straight into the target and the MAV did not lock at <2nm. At that point I took some small arms straight in the face and AAA from all sides. I realise the bunker in question must be in an odd orrientation making it hard to lock, but other times I have found the MAV always takes it's time locking on when the target is a grave threat and locks instantly for unarmed, low threat targets. Just sods/murphies law I suppose.
