Search and Rescue Horrible?

[Rutsche]

Maybe its just me, but what is the purpose of the search and rescue with planes.
Its quite literally impossible on some missions because the person who we are to rescue is on a surface that looks like the moon with craters.

We should be able to deny the landing request, and just return home.

Yeah so far I have done two...well I've tried to do, completely not being able to find who I was looking for.

It's the same with Search and Rescue with the helicopters. 6/10 times the person stands on a steep slope, and you have to land close to them, which isn't doable. Luckily I fought through it and did 10 of those missions, so now I can do the Hoist missions instead.

Some things in the simulator seem to be automatically generated.. maybe also the missions? They should have added conditions. With agricultural spraying.. the refill truck spawns under tree's so it's impossible to land. Firefighting missions.. they want me to scoop up water out of a lake.. that's not even big enough to take off again.. and indeed.. the SAR missions are the most frustrating.. the problem there is more common..

Look at this.. 40 minutes of searching.. and then she is on a steep slope in ice..
She was in the heli eventually.. but the game didn't notice so I needed to fake another landing with the animation.

Yup, I had to do that a couple of times also. Had to barely touch the ground and almost push myself a little in to the slope so they think I've landed. And then you see that the person has gotten onboard, but the promt to lift hasn't come yet so you have to keep doing that risky manoeuvre a couple more seconds.

So dissapointing! This game is so full of bugs! Shame on you

I had to do a rescue mission in South America where the "stranded" person was right next to a busy road

So much promise ....

Seems like this missions (and a lot of other things) are automatically generated but they didn't put in the proper conditions for it.
Like 'victim can't spawn within 10 meters of an obstacle' or on a steep slope.. or firefight missions with refill cant spawn when the lake is the size of the water in my backyard....

stuff like that

Yeah just feels very sloppy. 2020 also had some issues at release but career mode is unplayable atm with all these failures.

you can land/taxi further away from the person you need to rescue, get out and walk to them instead.
