Sticky Posted September 15, 2006 Posted September 15, 2006 I downloaded the "Operation chimera rising" campaign from lockonfiles, never was successful in the first misson, but I unlocked the campaign and played the rest of the campaign anyway. It was great. But im just wondering how do you succed in the first mission? I got shot down every time by the mig31. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] My Sim/Game CV: Falcon 1,3,4. Gunship. A10 TankKiller.

It's been a while, but IIRC, you can either keep evading their AA-9s (until they run out - works better if you gradually take the fight to lower altitudes where missile range is less) or you can let the other friendly CAPs grab their attention before you kill them. 1

D-Scythe Posted September 15, 2006 Posted September 15, 2006 Meh, it was an okay campaign :happy: I am working on another one, with more variety in missions (basically every air-to-air mission you can think of). I'm 8 missions in, but development has taken a temporary hiatus for now - got school and LOBS to worry about.
Sticky Posted September 16, 2006 Author Posted September 16, 2006 Ok, looking forward to trying it! Dont put too many MiG-31 in it though, i hate those :smilewink: Maybe I just havent learned how do deal with them yet, they usually shoot me down. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] My Sim/Game CV: Falcon 1,3,4.

D-Scythe Posted September 16, 2006 Posted September 16, 2006 They're actually really easy to shoot down. Their AA-9 Amos missiles may be fast, but they otherwise suck. Usually, if you just press the chaff button 10 times as fast as you can and turn, you'd evade it in the end-game. And if you know a missile is in the air at long range, you can buy yourself a few extra seconds by turning your ECM on and off at intervals of 3-5 seconds. This forces the missile to continuously switch between pure pursuit and proportional navigational guidance - very inefficient. Also, your radar missiles have a better chance of killing their targets when fired from below than from above.
