Appletank 0 Posted July 4 There's a few PvE missions where a plane or UAV flies overhead, and one of the objectives is to shoot it down. However, I fired both my main gun and coaxial machine gun at them and nothing happens. I've seen some other planes sometimes be able to damage them, but I haven't figured out why mine don't. Is there a specific weakspot I need to target?t Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arto 89 Posted July 4 They're bugged and most of the time cannot be damaged. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Qbicle 45 Posted July 4 (edited) Helicopters and transport plane on Desert Strike are bugged, because their hitboxes don't seem to match their visual models. Self-guided missiles can track and damage them though. Edited July 5 by Qbicle Desert Strike, not Desert Fox (see edit history) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tried Stryker ADATS once in American dream and was very disappointed about the ATGMS just slamming straight into the next terrain feature and not tracking the gunships.

I haven't tried using homing missiles in American Dream, but can confirm that self-guided missiles do work on Desert Strike, because I saw an AGDS shooting down all three of the helicopters and thereby completing the secondary objective last month. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zafir 8 Posted July 5 Nice to know there is a workaround until they fix whatever they f'ed up. The missions at least worked on release. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
