Dumb Noob question about Fire Support

[F4TES]

I've checked the manual & googled it but can't find how to activate the chosen support option when using Fire Support! I can call up the red ring, navigate thru the various ordnance options, but can't find the key to implement them!

Are you sure you've actually got such fire support available? You can navigate the menus even if you don't have it. Check out the single mission where you just freely explore the island. That has all arty available. Come check in back here again if you still can't get it to work.

Thanx Disease. I've only just started the SP campaign & at the second location (just after blowing up the antenna) I'm told to call in naval fire, so I assume Ive got something available, & as I said, I can target, get the red ring, select, say, artillery, but then I don't know what to press to make it happen.

I have lost artillery strike ability in middle of game somehow. At this point I am in beginning of mission 9 and should be able to call some support fallin steel to fellas down in the valley. Any stoopid keys to press or anithing to do to continue gaming without uninstalling it? Tried to google - no help.

alariuz, I did get my fire support to work eventually but it's been quite a while now since then & I can't remember how I did it. 1st, double check the key bindings & if that doesn't help, you can always try 'configure game cache files' which is the shorter alternative to uninstalling. Good luck. :)

Yeah Dudes.
Right Shift is the default to bring up the support menu
