ACM campaign bugged?

[Muybonito523]

Hi guys, playing the Aggressor campaign, has anyone been having issues locking onto the F5's in the first mission? When I try to lock on the missile just stays in the buzzing sound never the high pitches squeal. Tried twice and same result at the first point of the dog fight I even got behind one of the F5's and still no dice, cannot get a lock on, this is with holding down the cage button, radar on and locked in DM mode. The missile is on the left wing, which I have the armament switch turned on for that side.

 

Anyone else experience this?

Sometimes that happens, but I am at the CF-18 stage (mission 9) and was able to lock them alright.

It could be a game engine bug but make sure your jettison switch is centered as I think any other setting renders the missiles inop.

Oh well that might make a difference, my jettison was in the up position because I jettisoned my tank, and the missile would'nt release I hope that's it because I just got wasted 4 times in the past 2 hours trying to beat this 1 mission.

Hopefully you are playing the practice missions first so you can perfect your tactics, techniques and procedures.

 

It makes the campaign missions much easier once you have some experience defeating the bandits.
