WhiskeySixx 10 Posted March 27, 2014 Hello everyone... I don't know if this ever really got resolved and has just taken a back seat and has been forgotten,but I decided to play around with the arty today. Normal rounds I can get to hit within a few meters without the computer, laser guided are always on spot... but the "GUIDED" rounds never seem to hit their mark or even come close at all? Last I remember about it is they are supposed to autoseek a target? I don't know but if someone could fill me in that would be great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
novahot 1 Posted March 27, 2014 On my mission I lased from a SDV (Submarine). Arty doesn`t hit shit with the laser-marker spot on. Did try with Scorcher. Rounds were way off or never hit bottom. Also tried CAS with A-164. It won't even attack. WTF is wrong? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pooroldspike 129 Posted April 8, 2014 (edited) I've been running Arty and other tests here- http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?175240-Weapon-tests and am also having trouble with guided shells. After leaving the barrel they're supposed to pop fins for guidance and uplink to a GPS satellite which is supposed to guide them on to the target coordinates you gave them, but they often miss by a wide margin or get lost. (you hear a dull 'crump' somewhere in the distance) Laser-designated shells are more reliable but I think you have to designate a spot on the target which the incoming shell can "see". For example putting the spot on the south wall of a building isn't a good idea if the shell's coming in from the north. Roofs seem to be better. Same with laser guided bombs and missiles from aircraft; but my main beef with them is that you sometimes have to keep designating the spot for a very long time until the AI bot pilot sees it and attacks. I'm still running more tests. Edited April 8, 2014 by PoorOldSpike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
