No reply form wingmen

[flyingwolf]

Dear all,

 

 

I fly the F-16 with Easy Communications.

Whatever the mission I fly, either Instant action or Regular Mission, I never have any reply from my wingmen.

I can exchange with AWACS and ATC, but I never get a reply from my wingmen whatever order I give (attack, formation and so on).

I a sure to be on the right frequency since and Easy Comm should make sure that my radios are set on it.

The fact that my wingmen cannot help me simply prevent me from accomplish many mission, since my weapon load is not enough to kill all the bandits.Any hint?

 

 

Thanks for your help.

Regards

normally, if not easy comms mission, the different elements are on different channels. keeps the nonsense down to a minimum.

Easy comms could have a spoiling effect. Sometimes it can cause problems. Figuring out an issue is best done with easy comms off so the only one choosing which radio set and frequency to use is you.

 

To talk to your flight you need to communicate on the flight frequency as defined in the mission editor. It would help to open up the editor and check directly what frequency your flight members are listening on.

Thanks, understood.

However, for all Instant Missions there's no way to enter the editor, so no way to understand on which frequency that flight should stay.

And these INSTANT MISSIONS are important for newbies (as I am) to understand how the whole game and plane system work.

 

 

Any hint?

They all seem to be set to group frequency 127 MHz AM. It's a good point that would be a very nice piece of data to be auto-added to the briefing.
