Mig 29 Training Bug (Controller?)

[Skyblade]

All training missions work fine but ive just noticed that these training missions go crazy
Dispenser Bombing
Unguided Rockets and Strafing

The commentary is all instantly skipped and then my controller fails to work. This does not happen in any other missions?

controller? what do you mean controller?

[Skyblade]

Well the controller had no input during these 2 missions but is fine for all others

I got exactly the same problem....anybody???

[Skyblade]

is it just those two missions for you also? im going to try now with my new HOTAS set up. otherwise im not sure how to do Dispenser bombing lol

UPDATE
Exactly the same problem with the HOTAS set up, all voice training is insta skipped and then the plane just nose dives towards the earth?

I don't know if this will help but, when the screen at the beginning comes up for the mission at the bottom it says press pause in the bottom centre and Fly to the right side. If I hit the Fly button I have no control over the aircraft but if I hit the Pause button I have control. Not sure why but there are a lot of problems, I just wish the Devs would fix things before introducing New things.

Yes...only two missions...and I don't think that hotas has something to do with it.Unplug it and you'll see.

Try to setup controls first ;)
Sorry, but it is the only thing that IMO shoul'd help:

EDIT: Oh yes, also... If you don't have force feedback, turn it off in the misc menu.

All controls work fine in every other scenario or flight situation. I individually mapped every button on my joystick and throttle. But in those two missions....the whole tutorial gets insta skipped and then the plane dives straight to the ground. Weird how its only those 2?

Just to add to this, I bought the SU-33 and only one of the training missions works! In normal flight the SU-33 does everything correctly. But on the take off training missions the engines wont even start unless the electrical power is off..quite strange.

I did teach myself to take off and land it in free flight, but is this common?

This is a bug after the last update. Even if you set SU-33 on the carrier in the mission editor and set it to a cold start, you can't start the engines with power on. Just start the engines with power off, wait for the engines to finish starting and only then turn on the power.

It happens only when cold start on the carrier. When cold start on airfield, everything works good.

Nobody know if it will be fixed or when. The problem with this game that, when "Eagle Dynamics (ED)" fixing bugs, they usually produce about 5 new bugs for each bug they fixing. Additionally they usually prioritizing bugs. For example broken system or system that is working almost correctly, but not correctly enough on high fidelity plane, is more prioritized for fixing than broken taxi lights (that can be fixed in a 30 minutes maximum).

It looks right, but this cause for amount of minor bugs to always grow. As a result, two updates ago they broke lights on some planes. After the last update, SU-33 can't be cold-started on the carrier, the whole scenery over brightened. Some cockpit lights at night looks like projector beams. TV display on SU-25T during day light, when using built in "Shkval" system, are to dark. At night times, when using "Merkury" infrared pod, the TV display looks like a super bright projector beam if the target marker are pointing into the sky (as it by default). As a result, it is impossible to see almost anything inside the cockpit and outside of it.

I'm even not talking about broken missions in some campaigns. In FC 3 and free SU-25T campaigns, they can befixed, it takes about 3 - 5 minutes to fix the mission. But other paid campaigns are locked and if there is a bug, there is nothing you can do about it.

So yeah, the game is great and new content added very often. But the new content always added over existent bugs and it produces even more bugs and bug fixes adding new bugs.
So who know when they will fix the cold-start for SU-33 and who know if they won't make it even worse when/if they fix it?
