steelrfan85 Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 I was shot down in a spiraling fall. I tried the CTRL E three times and never ejected. Ejection seat was armed. I even mapped the ejection to my throttle. Anybody having this issue?
bolek Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 Are you sure that the pilot was both alive and conscious? If not, none of the controls work.
ravenzino Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 Same thing happened to me last night as well. I had to respawn to avoid seeing”myself” going down with the plane into the ocean... i9-9900K, G.Skill 3200 32GB RAM, AORUS Z390 Pro Wifi, Gigabyte Windforce RTX 2080 Ti, Samsung 960 Pro NVMe 512G + 860 Pro 1T, TM Warthog HOTAS, VKB T-Rudder, Samsung O+ F/A-18C, F-16C, A-10C, UH-1, AV-8B, F-14, JF-17, FC3, SA342 Gazelle, L-39, KA-50, CEII, Supercarrier Preordered.

Mule Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 The pilot was dead as fried chicken. When you're in that state you can't pull the ejection handle, I believe. Fighter Pilot Podcast.

Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk In my case last night, I was in 1st person view. I was even able to switch between F2 view and F1 view... Seat Arm was on I believe. Or... maybe not? But I alway arm the seat in the first place during start up sequence if not using auto start up. So it should be on as well last night.

steelrfan85 Posted January 24, 2019 Author Posted January 24, 2019 Ok. It looked like my wing was just gone. It a missile hits me, what is the purpose of the ejection seat if I’m dead. Almost seams like only useful if I was in a stall or something that nature.

Almost seams like only useful if I was in a stall or something that nature. Because sometimes you survive and are able to eject? If your view switches to external you know your pilot is dead. Wing missing but maybe we can pretent the shockwave or some shrapnel killed them? Not sure if any of that is modelled though. Ejections and deaths.
