shackman Posted February 11, 2009 Posted February 11, 2009 When ever I play LOMAC I always have fun. Butthere is a big disadvantage and annoyance I'm having. That is that I believe I don't know very many defensive bfm missile manuevers. I will have an Su-33 at my 2 o clock low and a MIG-29 at my 8 o clock high and the mIG will fire at me so I break into the missile sometimes it hits me other times not. then I'm out of position for a kill on either of them but the SU-33 then fires and shoots me down. It annoys me that I can't evade missiles. I rarely play it on Immortal, but can anybody suggest anything out there for some help in beating this?

Frostie Posted February 11, 2009 Posted February 11, 2009 One of your best forms of defense are your own missiles, press on the Su-33 and engage him and try to fly a beam to your right on the Su-33 so as the MiG is not gaining on you.

Kula66 Posted February 11, 2009 Posted February 11, 2009 Get your missiles in the air ... even if the proability of hit is low - launch as soon as you burn through the jamming. If you are in the Eagle you have 8 to play with. Try and manoeuver to take them on 1 v 1 ... keep your speed above 350kts so you can turn. Remember, if this is v the AI, it cheats, chaff/flares/jammers are poorly modelled and unfortunately, missile modelling is also flawed ... need to wait for fast movers in DCS!

So how do I install all these .avi files? [sIGPIC]http://www.vrsimulations.com/images/sigbanners/vrs_supporter.png[/sIGPIC]
Vekkinho Posted February 11, 2009 Posted February 11, 2009 You don't install them! Play 'em with Win Media Player, BS or any other video player you got! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
shackman Posted February 11, 2009 Author Posted February 11, 2009 (edited) no player that I have will play these. One is a.trk file the other is an .lma file the rest are recordings, so how do u se the video? or is it just all audio You know one thing I'm noticing is that I release the chaff/flares too early . When the enemy fires a missile i release them immediately, but the missile hasn't seen thewm yet. So I tried release right before they hit me and it WORKED! They flew right past me I guess cause they saw the flares. i was in about a 1190 degree right turn downward away from the missile. It seems when i break into them they hit me but when it's away fom them they miss cause they see the chaff and flares. Does this eem to be a good type of tactic? Also who flies with the labels on is it better to or not to and not see your targets label and know where it is.
