Issues with career progression and some other problems

[tuari]

Hello, I wanted to report some bugs/issues I encountered while playing FC career mode:

 

1. When reaching April 4th 1918 in playing Jasta 14 (in rapid career speed) I get an endless loading circle and am unable to progress. I did a steam file integrity check to no avail. To test it I also rushed through Jasta 14 again (while being commander and not assigning myself to any missions) and the same happened on April 4th.

2. The same thing also happened with Bosta 13 on March 7th 1918 after the Bosta transferred to another airfield. That’s really unfortunate since Bosta 13 is the only squadron with Gotha bombers.

3. When trying to start a career in FA(A) 135 in 1917 I don’t get any missions and can’t progress to the next day.

 

 

A bit more minor problems I had:

 

4.I’ve been awarded each rank twice in the span of a few missions (in Jasta 19 and Bosta 13)

5. Im unsure if that’s an issue but in Bosta 13 the Gotha’s flight leader stays much lower than the 1500m specified by the mission (mostly at around 300-600m).

 

I’ve seen that there’s quite some discussion regarding the AI and since I’m not a vastly experienced player in comparison I might not be able to contribute too much but I still like to report a few particular things related to bombers I regularly encountered:
The fighter AI sometimes has problems engaging bombers in formation (Gotha and DFW in my case). They tend to stay at an awkward distance where the rear gunners are able to get good shots at them but the fighters don’t shoot for a while. SPAD 7’s are particularly bad at this it seems. I’ve also had something similar, where I escaped with my damaged fighter (Pfalz III) and the faster enemy fighter (SE5) just followed at an odd distance doing nothing for minutes. - The fighter AI occasionally also crashes into bombers that are just in level flight

 

I hope some of it was helpful. (In case someone knows a solution for the first two problems with the freezing career I would really appreciate that.)

Thanks, this is on the short list of things to be fixed.

All of it? Really? I thought AI was okay according to Han.

Like I said, these issues are being evaluated by the team right now and will be addressed as they deem appropriate. ?
