RobbySpike Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 Hi I'm currently stuck in the SP campaign mission 3-1-0 (CAS / help x and y attacking z). I flew this one at least 5 times, but never got the "Mission accomplished" message. The target waypoint lies between two groups of targets and I cannot kill all of them in a single approach, because I would run of ammo at some point. I'm not sure which targets will trigger the message. Is there a way to figure this out? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] "It's a good landing, if you can still get the doors open"
TurboHog Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 You can open the mission in the mission editor and see the triggers... Looks like you have to clear enemy targets first and then use F10 in the radio menu (other) to tell the m1a1 and m1a2 platoons to move to Alaska (which is a trigger and I think completes the mission). So make sure you send them to the trigger... Good luck! 'Frett'
quyes Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 Don't forget to use F10 to bring in the additional AI CAS flights. On these missions I usually wait for the second wave of CAS to have had time to do some damage before having the ground units move up.
RobbySpike Posted January 24, 2012 Author Posted January 24, 2012 Uhm yeah, I actually never realizied that I have to contact the ground forces. However, this seems pretty logical to me now, since I never saw someone fighting down there :) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] "It's a good landing, if you can still get the doors open"
Spectre_USA Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 For me, these tend to be long missions, as I will usually RTB and get re-armed and re-fueled, and take another run before cutting the CAS'd armor loose. They tend to get chopped up pretty well if there are even a few stragglers, and then you will get the mission failed, of either of the platoons if wiped out... 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] A tale of 2 hogs
roob Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 Doesn't the mission info even state "You might have to re-arm during this mission"? ;) 1 My DCS stream [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Past broadcasts, Highlights Currently too much to do... But watch and (maybe) learn something :)
RobbySpike Posted January 24, 2012 Author Posted January 24, 2012 Woot? The possibility to rearm is just another thing I didnt knew before :huh: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] "It's a good landing, if you can still get the doors open"
Jona33 Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 Woot? The possibility to rearm is just another thing I didnt knew before :huh: If you land at a friendly airfield, stop somewhere on the Tarmac turn the intercom on you can then contact ground crew for rearming. Always remember. I don't have a clue what I'm doing
Revelation Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 When it comes to the rearm, don't make my first mistake... I cleared all the units leading up to their target point; I then sent them on and RTB'd to rearm/refuel. Low and behold more targets "appeared" and destroyed them very quickly. I was just getting airborne again when I got the mission failure message. 1 Win 10 Pro 64Bit | 49" UWHD AOC 5120x1440p | AMD 5900x | 64Gb DDR4 | RX 6900XT
RobbySpike Posted January 25, 2012 Author Posted January 25, 2012 Thank you guys. Unfortunately I had no chance to retry the mission because the campaign selected another one - But my new mission was quite similiar and I had to contact other flights as well [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] "It's a good landing, if you can still get the doors open"
