Jak525 Posted May 23, 2019 Posted May 23, 2019 Normally, when a bomb program is CCIP but there is a TGT designated, it will act as if in AUTO. However, if you designate a TGT before setting CCIP mode, it doesn't do this.
Nooch Posted May 23, 2019 Posted May 23, 2019 This behavior seems normal, from a logical standpoint at least. You might want to have a TGT designated (in order to have the carret displayed over it on the HUD) and want to go for a CCIP pass at the same time. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Apparently in real life it's actually a tactic to designate a TGT (thus having AUTO symbology), rolling in, then undesignating so you can use CCIP to aim and release.
victorlima01 Posted May 23, 2019 Posted May 23, 2019 The above is correct, although both rw operators who hang around this forum have both stated that actually what they were taught to do in the rag (FRS) with unguided bombs was to designate via any means available (ball and chain, pod etc, waypoint designate etc) and still release in auto, rolling in as you would with ccip and sweetening up the diamond as you dived and finally holding the pickle button until release. They had much less experience rolling in with CCIP, saying it's pretty much a back-up mode. After learning this I tried reverting from CCIP to their method only to discover that it's much harder in-game because of the difficulty of sweetening up the designation (in my case due to a horrible TDC and also because of a crappy 22 inch monitor). So now I just use CCIP as always and my accuracy is much better.
Jak525 Posted May 23, 2019 Author Posted May 23, 2019 Agh, just realized I posted this in the main forum... move to bugs if possible, thanks.
