Kurtz Posted April 5, 2010 Posted April 5, 2010 A10 - what does 'salvo mode' do? appears a rectangle in the bottom HUD Thought I'd bump this question. Does anybody know the usage and the signifigance of the HUD rectangle?
MadTommy Posted April 5, 2010 Posted April 5, 2010 not sure it does anything... i mapped it to a Hotas key.. could not see it do anything so i removed its mapping. I'd be interested to know if it really does nothing... i5-3570K @ 4.5 Ghz, Asus P8Z77-V, 8 GB DDR3, 1.5GB GTX 480 (EVGA, superclocked), SSD, 2 x 1680x1050, x-fi extreme music.

Mugenjin Posted April 5, 2010 Posted April 5, 2010 What HUD rectangle? I don't get one. Mind posting a screenshot? AFAIK salvo mode is useful when shooting vikhrs (single or double vikhr launch).
nomdeplume Posted June 13, 2010 Posted June 13, 2010 Here's a screenshot... the "Salvo Mode" (LCtrl+V) keypress toggles the rectangle that appears in the bottom left corner of the HUD. It's not visible when you have Mavericks or the gun selected. It does appear when you have rockets or bombs selected. Haven't been able to determine if it does anything. There's nothing in the flight manual about the A-10's Salvo Mode, and nothing in the cockpit appears to move when it's toggled.
VTJS17_Fire Posted June 13, 2010 Posted June 13, 2010 With the A-10s salvo mode, you can burst more rockets. Normally, you shoot 4 rockets, if you push the trigger for 1 second. With salvo mode selected, you shoot 12 rockets with the same triggertime. So you can shoot triply more rocktes in one second and with aiming once only. kind regards, fire Hardware: Intel i5 4670K | Zalman NPS9900MAX | GeIL 16GB @1333MHz | Asrock Z97 Pro4 | Sapphire Radeon R9 380X Nitro | Samsung SSDs 840 series 120GB & 250 GB | Samsung HD204UI 2TB | be quiet!
