rockaneado Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 Hi, I hope ED is not believing that all of its user base has jumped to the hornet because many campaigns have been broken for so long but haven't been fixed yet. I'm not posting on specific campaigns section because other people already have threads about the same bugs and problems that I'm facing. For example, in the F15 default campaign the SEAD flight can't even get to EWR and miss most of their missiles trying to kill defending SAM's then die to them afterwards resulting in mission failure. In the very next mission the F15 E flight manages to bomb the runway but nothing happens afterwards and the mission just stalls. I have searched this forum and many people are complaining about these same bugs from around 2016. Likewise, Mirage campaign AI taxi bug is still there, A10 enemy within last mission is bugged still as the enemy infantry was in the open before but now their spawn point is covered with trees so I can't find and kill them all in given limited time and results in mission failure. Also, many single missions are also broken specially for mirage. Eg. Single mission 1 the F16 won't bomb anything and just go through their waypoints and mission stalls. I hope my post isn't taken as angry rant but rather as a suggestion to ED to keep going back after a few updates and and fix older campaigns for bugs. I'm from SEA so can't really get into multiplayer much cuz of 400-500 pings so single player is the only option for me. I'm hopeful that someday soon we all can finally play a bug free DCS.
Dun_Aenghus Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 Agreed - it would be nice if all of the campaigns that shipped with FC3 could be updated for 2.5. The single missions for the A10C and other modules are also screwed up. I've edited several in the mission editor but it would be nice if the content worked properly for users that paid for it, despite the work involved in transferring everything to the new version.

Johnny Dioxin Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 I think ED would reply that most of the missions mentioned are 3rd party missions and it's up to those 3rd party devs to sort them out - but I do agree on the ED campaigns, but although occasional fixes do appear for existing campaigns once in a blue moon (I hear Maddog IC is working on the ED ones) it's easy to give up hope.

rockaneado Posted July 27, 2018 Author Posted July 27, 2018 Thanks for reply. Good to hear Maddog is on it. I remember getting this game for the first time in 1.5xx and F15 campaigns were broken even then. I downloaded the Maddog version and his was working fine although SEAD missions were still screwed. Baltic Dragon also fixes his campaign every now and then but it would help if missions don't get messed up every update.
Johnny Dioxin Posted July 28, 2018 Posted July 28, 2018 Absolutely - I'm convinced this is the reason we see so few user made missions compared to FC 1 days.
