grillob3 11 Posted February 19, 2013 Are you guys going to make headless client independent from game CDKey on any future beta? So we can setup a few hc or hc+server+game on the same machine? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NoRailgunner 0 Posted February 19, 2013 Is it possible to get/test that default AI will use + fire guided missiles/bombs from greater distance and not going into suicidal dive-attack/low pass maneuver? Maybe include that the AI will fire a "life-saving" burst of flares if they are close to enemy vehicles? Btw machineguns shouldn't be used/fired from within vehicles unless its an remote controlled weapon system... and who does make the funny stuff that AI should fire with their tank canon on fast flying aircrafts? Observerd "AI using tank gun against fast flying aircrafts" as an Su-34 was flying away with high speed.... c'mon leave 'AI using tank canon' only to low + slow or hovering flying aircrafts. :D Another AI issue occured with Su-34 they seem to have big troubles to hit anything with Ch29 - all missiles are flying over their targets. Guess AI flight fsm needs some 'config' adjustements too... Cross fingers that in A3 we will see some improved AI and effective use of weapons and flight maneuver.

It's a config problem that the dev doesn't want seemingly to fix until we find some source on the KH29L saying that when you lock a target ,the missile will hit it !

NoRailgunner 0 Posted February 19, 2013 The AI was flying the Su-34 on their own against a group of tanks (AI) and I was just watching it - testing it again and again. The AI Su-25 did a bit better job with the CH29 but got gunned down by the machineguns* so I guess its also about how fast the AI moves/fly and can lock + fire at targets from certain distance. *I can't imagine that a gunner/loader of an MBT/IFV/APC, light "car vehicle" in real life is able to shoot down an aircraft like the AI in A2OA. Nothing much against "spray and prey" against air targets but BIS needs to sort this precise shooting and killing AI "feature" out - maybe limit it to AA/AAA vehicles and comparable static weapons.

I have always thought that AIs can only exist in two states : Extremly dumb or Extremly powerful ... I,myself,managed to shoot human pilot out of their planes with FN FAL,but it's not everyday's story . Concerning the KH29L,you need to have the crosshair inside the TAB lock square to get a clean shot (which fails sometimes in the latest beta patches) ... but,i don't see how such an advanced missile could have so small maneuvrability and probability of hitting a target !

kklownboy 43 Posted February 19, 2013 (edited) Crash when shooting anything in MP(any mode). But not in the Editor. xx1747 is fine. xx2111, seemed smoother, and some extra FPS. I am running the newer AMD Beta#6 tho. Edited February 19, 2013 by kklownboy tested more, MP is broken Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Advanced missile...it's a missile from the 80's, prototype from 1975 ;)...and it's not manouverable at all, it's simpy too heavy. the L version is laser guided and the russian Shkval target system is not known for a great gimbal limit. In fact you have to use it more like a rocket assisted LGB...it's not a Maverick despite the look. Edited February 19, 2013 by Beagle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maturin 12 Posted February 19, 2013 The in-game Kh-29 shares no essential characteristics with the real thing. Still, if you tried launching one of those from a kilometer in real life, you would fail even harder. The range is longer than ArmA's view distance at max.

Yeah,happy you found some sources :P,because russian things are really hard to find on the net. And yes,it's new realtively to other weapons (hellfire 1982) ... the "heavy" argument is hard to defend because,i don't think that a missile that is supposed to be laser guided cannot even perform a 30° angle on 3Km range,and i am sure those two sets of wings have some utility ! ... well,if a GBU can do it why not a KH29L ? ... lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
