FlankerMan Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 I flew the first few waypoints, engaged, died, entered my wingman's aircraft, finished the engagement, was ordered to go to waypoint three, went there, received no further orders, landed, and cannot proceed. What do I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feefifofum Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 (edited) Hi Flankerman - try, try again. If you die, you're dead. :angel: It was not intended for you to occupy the wingman's aircraft as it would make no sense for dialogue to continue between a dead guy and other parties...while it also doesn't make too much sense for any dialogue to have occured after your aircraft was shot down, this wasn't something I anticipated people doing and hence didn't build any contingencies. I will look into editing the missions to kick you to the menu on player death as they do with an ROE violation. Should be relatively simple. :thumbup: Edited February 26, 2019 by feefifofum THE GEORGIAN WAR - OFFICIAL F-15C DLC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlankerMan Posted February 27, 2019 Author Share Posted February 27, 2019 I read your post just before giving up on my second try. Once again, I'd had to enter my wingman's aircraft. Next time I do it, I'll do the unthinkable and set myself to immortal, but just for this one mission. I don't mind cheating THAT much...;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlankerMan Posted February 27, 2019 Author Share Posted February 27, 2019 Yeah, the Fulcrums get lots of R-77s off at me at close range, and it's all I can do to stay alive...Doesn't work, of course, as I also try to fire at them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feefifofum Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 The AIM-120C5 out ranges the R-77 by quite a bit. Try asking your wingman (don't forget to tell him to turn his RADAR on) to engage one MiG specifically (lock MiG, flight -> engage -> my target) and firing a pair of AIM-120s at RPI. Crank hard and let that first pair of missiles force the bandits defensive before you press into their range. Once both the fighters are splashed you can let your wingman loose on everything indiscriminately (within briefed ROE of course.)

FlankerMan Posted February 27, 2019 Author Share Posted February 27, 2019 I'm afraid it's too late to try to convince me against it, as I've already done it. Interestingly enough, an R-27ER is all that was fired at me, though I didn't bother to take evasive action. My wingman died, but I passed on to the next mission.

cercata Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) Those MIG 29 are hard, mainly because they are hidding within 4 Su-25s, and my radar seems prefer to lock on the Su-25s. Any advice on that ? By the time I see them enougth separated, there is already a R77 following me or my wingman. I will look into editing the missions to kick you to the menu on player death as they do with an ROE violation. I guess ROE means Rules of Engament, and that means firing when not allowed ... It happened to me in a mission, maybe mission 3, that I fired an AMRAAM to a bandit, and while it was on the air, I received orders of cease fire from MAGIC, and some seconds later, somethig weird happend, I thouth it was a DCS crash, but no, I wass back in the Menus. What am I supposed to do in that situation ? There is no missile destroy option in the F-15. Edited March 12, 2019 by cercata Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately the chances for this happening are pretty slim :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baltic_dragon Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 You’d probably get grounded and there would be an investigation. On the other hand under these circumstances that probably would wait until the end of hostilities, given limited number of airframes and pilots..
