Mission 14 ROLEX not activating


Recommended Posts

I am really enjoying this campaign, but on the mission where you are supposed to wait for Rolex to tell you to engage. Maybe I am just impatient, but it seems like I continually orbit the target, but am not allowed to engage. The only radio calls I am getting are the AI AWACS calls. If I then destroy the targets, it seems like everything advances,

at which point I get shot down by the L-39s.

 

 

Am I missing something, or do I need just need to orbit longer?

 

Thanks!

I was hearing radio messages about the spoiler. I should play it again to double check, but if I remember correctly, I arrive at the IP, Overlord gives me the coordinates for the target, and that is the last scripted message I hear, unless I destroy the target before being told to. At which point, the other A-10s also radio that they destroyed their targets and the mission appears to proceed, including more dialog about the spoiler. I am pretty sure I had my UHF radio set to the the frequency in the briefing, and I was hearing the AWACS calls on AM and flight calls on FM. Would I have been given the coordinates if the UHF was on the wrong frequency?

 

As a side note, thanks for making such a great campaign. I am notoriously cheap when buying video games, but it was well worth it.

I have also tried this mission, but after receiving the coordinates, I do not get a message to press space bar when visual on target. I have located the target, but the CAP and the other A-10s keep circling to the Northeast.

 

[Edit] I restarted the mission with Shift+R, and this time I also waited until OVERLORD instructed to tune to the AWACS frequency prior to doing so. The space bar prompt appeared correctly this time. I’m not sure which fixed the problem.

I didn't get Rolex calls, or a press space when visual on target, in this mission in two tries. I only pushed to the awacs 144.2 freq when it came up in the dialogue with Dodge 2-2.

 

 

 

I eventually decided to destroy the ship and the mission progressed.

After you land, you should then move on to the next mission :)

 

Spoiler.

 

So that's the end of the mission, even though Overlord tells me to land, not shutdown, refuel/rearm, and takeoff again to go assist with the downed pilot? And even though I don't get a message that the mission is complete and I can exit like every prior mission?
