A10 warthog problem

[AlphaOneSix]

OK, thanks, I didn't know that, will give me a hard time to give him back all those rep's then :)

( This works both ways, or just negative?)

 

Both ways. I gave you positive rep so you can see how many points it goes up (not as many as when Viper does it, I'm sure).

[BuzyBat]

Thanks, it went up 60 points, now only -201.

Trust me, Vipers a pussy at heart! ;)

Rectified.

 

Next time, kindly address the post and not the person. Personal insults are never appreciated nor warranted ;)

 

 

Back on Topic.

Back on track again;

 

I made this track in LockOn FC2 to show what it's about.

 

You will see 5 Strela 10 (SAM13), with about 1m spacing, not covered with sandbags or camo net, like in real life to hide them, quite visible.

 

Track only show first Maveric launch, finally lock at about 2.8 miles.

If you put a T 72 at the end of the Strela's, you see what this make it look like, Mavericks really like T72's.

And I'll put up a BMP-1 too, didn't know it was like Strela's.

Just for the fun, it's not impossible, but 3'rd try. :thumbup:

 

But I would rather see stationary, pop up camo net, after a few min.

Because like it is now, it seems not fair to have uncovered and very visible, even IR profile looking same as easier targets.

Would be better for buisness to have SAM units without camo net, and easy targeting for newcomers, and harder with camo net, for us who like a challenge. Just my opinion.

Many many complaints on the mavericks from a few people including myself.

 

What has happened since FC1? The mavericks are completely off, they dont seem to recognize targets.

 

I can be 2 miles out from a target and it will target a building or something completely arbitrary to the side half a click away from it.

 

Additionally, you cannot pick specific targets either. Per say, a column or armor, you spot the highest threat and want to engage, but the maverick will only pick up on the lead and trail target, or sometimes the third one from the beggining or back.... :mad:

 

Whats happened? I would understand if it behaved like this if i were about 8 miles out, but not when i get as close as 2 miles...

 

Every single AA is easily engaging me before i can get a lock on them, and i have to bug off before attempting another run... even if he is the ONLY target around in an open field...

 

I have tried different altitudes with the same results... Is this a bug, a feature, or what?

 

 

PS: i made 5 of my friends buy this game, all 5 are experiencing the same problems.

 

DITTO!

 

I agree.

 

I can acquire the target way out, over 20 miles; switch to Maverick as SOI; then wait for it to lock using contrast of either: Black Hot or White Hot and using multiple TMS short to try and get a lock and somtimes it never happens and fly right on over the acquired target. Pisses me off!!

 

Once locked, I TMS up Long, and "Fire" (Rifle). It works sometimes.

 

And altitude doesn't seem to matter, be it 20,000 feet or 5,000 feet as to getting the Maverick to lock. I usually use the "D" model as to FLIR.

 

Somtimes I can SLEW with my CH Pro Throttle mini-joystick to un-acquire and maybe it will re-acquire, but usually when I do this the seeker acquires a different target and usually a building!

 

This has happened many, many times using various maps / missions online in Mutiplayer.

 

This is the .7, #2 patch of the purchased digital download.

 

I like the DCS A-10C simulator, but comparing to Aces High, WWII combat simulator, toss bombing without computer control ordnance is way superior to this game!
