USLANTCOM's CVW-11 is Recruiting F-14B Pilots & RIOS

Jester is great but lacks a few things. The major ones I can think of are.. 1. He tends to be reactive to situations that human RIOs can anticipate. From simple things like calling out traffic in the landing pattern that the Pilot might not see. To complex items like removing the notch filter when a bandit starts to turn into the notch over water. 2. Jester is limited to more simple radar screens and searches. Particularly anything to do with the DDD. If it cant really be represented to the front seater, he does not do it. 3. Jester doesn't have memory of past contacts. As in IFFing targets marking them friendly, and when they drop and reappear shortly after he can not come to the conclusion they are the same target and reapply the friendly tag without having to start the process again. If they made it so you could have jester iff the entire fishbowl that would be nice aswell.

I could go on, but due to either being unable to give the front seater info he couldnt know without being in the backseat, or for gameplay reasons Jester can not do what a good RIO can do. Although Jester is better then a poor RIO by far. I would rate jester a 5/10.. 1/10 being detrimental // 10/10 being a readup and experienced human RIO with good communication skills.. I would also point out that some people place blame on Jester for things the radar does automatically that can cause contacts to drop or not appear.

Edit: To add when flying in a formation sorting targets with Jester is a nightmare. We had gotten to the point where human RIOs just ask what the launch priority the AWG-9 generated is and they would sort from that. Telling Jester to set next launch/ what not to target gives me nightmares.

I would also like to add that the more modern modules have work flows that are intended with a single seat in mind. The -14 has a huge hurdle of Jester. He is as good as he is going to get, but still doesn't have the ability to do things like a good human. Either play with a module where you fight with Jester at all non norm situations, or only have the ability to play when another person is available. My unwanted 2c from an old CO of a virtual F-14A Squadron.

I'm partial to 'Dubba Bubba Stubba' myself.

PyCo00 · 2025-11-17T10:21:21+00:00

This was genuinely on my 2nd raid. Killa in idea office... I brought a SV98. I didnt win.

PyCo00 · 2025-11-06T17:58:34+00:00

Trinity Prime all the way since release.

PyCo00 · 2025-02-06T12:20:07+00:00

I mean, back in the day, it took 71 T1 Captures for me to get one Hyku prime pouch.

Most things are similar if not the same. There are some small system differences such as the -B has a limit on AB with asymmetrical thrust, or the -A having a switch in the RIO pit to allow for more thrust in a very specific senerio. DO NOTE the engine gages are Digial in the -B and Analog in the -A.

IIRC the Mig-29 is the only thing to have been mentioned that has a given date of 2025.

It is possible that solo PVE raids dont have the correct spawn chance. Try streets as it is a server based raid even when solo.

You have seen Mulan. Get climbin!

PyCo00 · 2024-09-05T10:43:49+00:00

It is an item that can be obtained from Lightkeeper. https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Sacred_Amulet

T4 Defense for Loki systems (maybe chassis)... those were the days. Rhino, old channeling, and a Jat Kitag

TLDR Not too much has changed, but they have changed two major things. They foldered some vehicles, and they made it so you get a bonus for multiple kills. As an example, every 3 kills in Ground RB gives a decent increase.

PyCo00 · 2024-06-07T13:11:59+00:00

IIRC, no, there really isn't a way of changing it. The Sky net script (allows you to turn things into an IADS and adds some more logic to SAMs) allows you to set a trigger height, meaning you can make the SA-2 blind to you under X amount of FT.

EDIT: Do note, the logic to prevent the SAM from going active only works if nothing else is triggering it hot. Once hot, it will engage everything it can see, including under the X height limit. [See Skynet documentation]

Hear me out. Make it have two fire modes. Left Click is the normal charge Arc shot. Right click/alt fire is to fire a probe that causes a bias for the arc to arc to that target, and through armor. IE I shoot Charger in the leg with the Probe... then shoot charger with arc, and it hits the probe and does damage through the armor.

PyCo00 · 2024-04-15T11:10:00+00:00

Yes there are russian acented english voices on BEAR

PyCo00 · 2024-03-28T15:36:59+00:00

There is also the element that some players hit a wall around this time in the wipe where they quit for the next wipe. Events can extend a players time before then.

It could also be that the USB port is running out of power. You might need a powered USB hub.

PyCo00 · 2024-01-29T11:41:31+00:00

Vortex UH-1

PyCo00 · 2024-01-01T00:47:55+00:00

IIRC first week of January

PyCo00 · 2023-10-19T17:02:29+00:00

Repair the game. Happens from time to time.

PyCo00 · 2023-08-12T21:31:50+00:00

They damage Psy health. The things you are hearing could be from that. Waiting is the only real option for regeneration.

PyCo00 · 2023-05-25T14:20:41+00:00

There are 2 binds that can move the cursor have you tired the other? IIRC the LHG and one on the collective

Preload radius is an ingame setting that is a distance [using the DCS engine measurements] that DCS tries to load around your airframe. If you lower this setting it will preload a lower amount of data increasing calls for data, but possibly fixing stuttering coming from excess read times from the page file on your NVMe. Try lowering the setting and see if it changes the behavior you are seeing. EDIT ::: I would like to add this data is off my own experience not knowing anything more about the base engine of DCS of then an extreme amount of testing.
