Question for ED or its reps.

I recently re-downloaded my copy of FC, and although I haven't spent much time with it, Mission 2 for the A-10 seems to have new stuff added to it. The armor I'm supposed to stop from reaching Jalta has MANY more AD vehicles in it now, and I even managed to take a round or two from a random armored column on a road I flew over on the way there. This is very cool stuff! :D I was just wondering if ED has tweaked that mission a little bit since the original release. BTW...I ran out of activations, so I sent an e-mail to EDs support staff about getting more. They issued me a new serial number, Kate was very helpful. Its little things like this that make the difference. I guess I'll be buying BS when it comes out now. :D

V1.12a was revised to include fewer AD threats and there are fewer vehicles involved in the mission as a whole.

 

Not counting a few ancillary vehicles you might overfly during ingress, and the AD threats to your North(?) which you should be able to avoid:

 

V1.02 (on the coast):

1. OSA SAM site
   
2. 2 Groups BTR-70s approaching coast vicinity OSA site
   
3. 2*Strela-1
   
4. 3*T-80, 1*Strela-1
   
5. 1*Strela-1, 1*ZSU-23-4
   
6. 1*Strela-10
   
7. 3*BMP-2, 1*ZSU-23-4
   

 

V1.12a (on coast):

1. OSA SAM site
   
2. Removed
   
3. 2*Strela-1
   
4. 3*T-80, 1*Strela-1
   
5. Removed
   
6. 1*Strela-10
   
7. 3*BMP-2, 1*ZSU-23-4

Thanks, Rich...just a few additions to your post though.

 

[6] 1*Strela10, 1*ZSU-23-4

[7] 1*Strela10, 3*BMP-2, 1*ZSU-23-4.

 

Its weird, these extra AD assets just suddenly showed up, without me doing a thing to the campaign. Thanks again for posting your intel, because that's exactly what I saw before my recent re-download...so now I know I'm not crazy. :D There are a couple of lakes on the route to my IP that I don't remember being there before either. I end up getting shot at by a column of BMPs just before I reach the lake area, which is before my Eagles down the Floggers. I guess I'll have to change my road-crossing procedures. If there had been a ZSU or Strela in that column, I would have died before getting anywhere near my IP.

 

Edit: Correction, those were both SA-9s not 13s in 6 and 7. I guess I'll stick with NATO nomenclature. :D

I guess I'll be buying BS when it comes out now. :D

 

You actually mean that you had doubts about the purchase... With how many post's 2,044... :megalol:

Good, my brotha. How are you? :D

 

Heh...I come here when I'm bored on weekends to shoot the s**t with people who have a similar interest. I guess my recent dealings with ED just humanized their project a little more for me
