PhoenixRising Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 I am really enjoying this campaign, but on the mission where you are supposed to wait for Rolex to tell you to engage. Maybe I am just impatient, but it seems like I continually orbit the target, but am not allowed to engage. The only radio calls I am getting are the AI AWACS calls. If I then destroy the targets, it seems like everything advances, at which point I get shot down by the L-39s. Am I missing something, or do I need just need to orbit longer? Thanks!

baltic_dragon Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 It looks to me like some problems with the radio, as you should hear the calls associated with the flags that allow the thing you mentioned in the spoiler to happen. I will check. Anyone else experiencing this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhoenixRising Posted May 19, 2019 Author Share Posted May 19, 2019 I was hearing radio messages about the spoiler. I should play it again to double check, but if I remember correctly, I arrive at the IP, Overlord gives me the coordinates for the target, and that is the last scripted message I hear, unless I destroy the target before being told to. At which point, the other A-10s also radio that they destroyed their targets and the mission appears to proceed, including more dialog about the spoiler. I am pretty sure I had my UHF radio set to the the frequency in the briefing, and I was hearing the AWACS calls on AM and flight calls on FM. Would I have been given the coordinates if the UHF was on the wrong frequency? As a side note, thanks for making such a great campaign. I am notoriously cheap when buying video games, but it was well worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhoenixRising Posted May 19, 2019 Author Share Posted May 19, 2019 I just tried the mission again, this time there is a message to press space bar when I am visual on target. I don't know where I messed up before, but it seems to be working now. Thanks for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baltic_dragon Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Well I didn’t really do anything;) this is called “task saturation” and probably could happen in real life too. Glad it works as it should! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SignorMagnifico Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 (edited) I have also tried this mission, but after receiving the coordinates, I do not get a message to press space bar when visual on target. I have located the target, but the CAP and the other A-10s keep circling to the Northeast. [Edit] I restarted the mission with Shift+R, and this time I also waited until OVERLORD instructed to tune to the AWACS frequency prior to doing so. The space bar prompt appeared correctly this time. I’m not sure which fixed the problem.

PhoenixRising Posted June 1, 2019 Author Share Posted June 1, 2019 I might have got ahead of myself and tuned AWACS before being told to do so, but I am not 100% sure about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolds Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 I didn't get Rolex calls, or a press space when visual on target, in this mission in two tries. I only pushed to the awacs 144.2 freq when it came up in the dialogue with Dodge 2-2. I eventually decided to destroy the ship and the mission progressed.

dporter22 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 What do I do and where do I go after completing the first part of the mission? It tells me to land and not shutdown and refuel/rearm, which I do, but then there are no further instructions after taking off again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After you land, you should then move on to the next mission :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dporter22 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 After you land, you should then move on to the next mission :) Spoiler. So that's the end of the mission, even though Overlord tells me to land, not shutdown, refuel/rearm, and takeoff again to go assist with the downed pilot? And even though I don't get a message that the mission is complete and I can exit like every prior mission? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baltic_dragon Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Probably my bad with the lack of message, I will check. Next mission starts with rearmed and refuelled aircraft with engines hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dporter22 Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 No, you're right. It says Mission Complete, I just assumed since Overlord told me to rearm and not shut down that it was supposed to continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, in M14, did Polish F-16s engage the enemy fighters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dporter22 Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Yes, not sure if they were Polish but two F-16s engaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
