[CORRECT AS IS] Basic IFF

[afarros]

In online PVP IFF work terrible.

I must stare at the MFD and wait for response.

Maybe no response due to network latency.

I don't have any tips on HUD.

IF I make an abrupt turn,then I would have to IFF again and again.:(

 

 

Hope to improve as soon as possible.

There's no IFF indication on the HUD, it's only on the FCR and HSD page, and eventually later you can also check it on the TGP in AA mode.

Thanks.

Maybe IFF perform better when the data link works.

There's got to be a STT IFF. otherwise WVR will be nearly impossible to engage without friendly fire

Agree with you.

IFF function WIP……

So far the F-16 friendly fire very frequently in the dogfight.

From what I have heard, if STT lock is not friendly, there should be no response.

Your SA is your IFF.

As others have said, the F-16 doesn't have an IFF indication on the HUD, like the Hornet does. You need to keep an eye on your FCR and HSD. And anyway, you should have developed a mental picture of who's who before you commit to a BVR or WVR engagement. And since MP was mentioned, you should use comms to supplement both yours and others' SA and make Raygun and Declare (if available) calls, if you're unsure of your target.

Thank you.

At present we rely on SRS to keep communication.

Looking forward to a better Viper。

Indeed, only a friendly contact will give an IFF response (green circle and 4). This is working as it should.

 

Thanks

Hey Wags, given that many players don't want/can use Voice Chat, how about adding a radio option to call "buddy spike" and reproduce a radio "Buddy Spike" call for multiplayer? same for Raygun. I know that we can write buddy in the chat, but personally, I don't like the chat open (too much trash msg).

I also use SRS or Discord, depending on the server. ED has said that they're working on a VOIP system, that should help bring over the rest of the player base to comms.
