Flight Leader but AI doesn't mind ?

[Solmyr]

Hey fellas !

 

I knew about that problem quite long time ago but does anyone know something about Devs work on this ?

In my career it's  a tad immersive killer and in combat it leads to some problems.

 

Edit : Looks like my topic could be unclear ; I mean when the player, in a career, is the flight leader, AI keeps doing its routine exactly as if they were in charge of the decision, and even better, players gets tell off when he does anything that isn't in the planned route.

yeah it's a bit annoying. I had a free run mission where my wingman AI just flew off somewhere and never returned. I could still see him using shift+f2, but I had no idea of where he was and why he left me.

I find it’s good idea to look behind you every twenty seconds or so and check the position of your AI wingmen.  They always break off and disappear to engage any distant, unseen enemy without so much as a “Repeat Please”.

Oddly, in the 6 fighters flight that I lead, one keeps being late with an erratic navigation at the back, even while he's not damaged and I regularly give order to follow me. But things now are a lot better. Looks like AI slowly accepted that I become the leader of the air group.. ?
