DEAD Islands: VTOL-VR EF-24G Mission 1 (Tutorial, No Music, No Personality)

Because evidently my music taste is offensive to the general population of English-speaking countries, here's a tutorial for the mission, sans music.

Thank you so much for this! I was finally able to beat the mission tonight. Definitely feel like i can fly the Ef-24 decently too after all the attempts.

[@mdkultra6879]

Awesome to hear!

[@Ninja1Knows1Gaming7]

Thank Jesus for this lol I spent 6 hours trying this and using every slur I could think of. I followed your general idea and attack style and did it in 27 mins without a rearm.

I finally beat this mission today thanks to your help.

Came here from another Comment and I love the sarcastic title haha

[@gunfighter9093]

Thank you for the tutorial!

[@Bushsub0]

dude you make this mission look too easy. I've tried so many times. Maybe this video will help

[@mdkultra6879]

TGP is love, TGP is life in all honesty, you can also cheese the mission by bringing nothing but jammers and using your jammers to get in close enough to mark GPS targets on everything. Land back at the carrier and launch enough AGM-161 salvos to wipe everything out from 45k feet and 30 miles away

[@Bushsub0]

lol now i wanna try that too @@mdkultra6879

Very interested in this vr version it looks a lot more simpler and less expensive Hotas are expensive and it looks like a lot of work to put things together from what I've seen so far I think I would rather do this than to go dcs right now this looks real fun the way I like it do I just go online like dcs or what request information on how to get components or whatever I'm not new to flight sims been doing it since the mid 90s I know I need a vr like oculus or something but just really need to know how I can get started very interested would like response from you if possible thank you over and out.

I jam the MW with high band and my gps bombs still get shot down

[@viralmoment123]

Curious why missiles seem far less aggressive in your gameplay than in mine lol When i get locked up and shot, 9/10 times it seems no matter what I do they hit me. Terrain masking is the ONLY way I have been able to avoid them, but it seems like you get shot sometimes in full view of the missile and it just... gives up. Are you doing EW? is it a flight path thing? Am I just really bad at flying jets? this looks so much smoother than my runs 😭 need a MDKULTRA tutorial for every DLC mission bro

[@mdkultra6879]

I think it comes down to a couple of things: Basically the instant I get spiked by a radar, I'm assuming they've launched on me. From the start of a possible engagement let alone a radar spike, I'm planning how I'm going to defend. From ~40k feet, if you start diving, the missile is taking a parabolic path to intercept you, which means it'll waste a bunch of energy. Especially in the EF-24, it'll be very hard to G-pull a missile, so you're better off dragging the missile (flying away from it), or beaming it (flying 90 degrees to it). Usually if the missile "gives up" it's because it's lost me to the radar background (beaming). On occasion, I'll outmaneuver a missile, but if it's pitbull or in the terminal post-boost phase and drops off, I've usually dragged it to the point where it's lost enough energy that it just can't keep up. In general, I don't run EW since it's a high workload to keep up if I'm doing anything but dedicated SEAD. I'll be getting tutorials for the rest up soon, hopefully!

So counter-intuitive to have the first mission with the new jet be so little reliant on jammers. You barely got everything without any Jammers attached.

[@coolbros2002]

I hope this will help. Ill tell you if it does

[@coolbros2002]

Took me a while but finally did it

[@alexlee6074]

I've tried coping this video but my bombs got shot down every time, jamming the MW with High Noise and using both GBU12 and 38, neither managed to get through. Any ideas?

[@Andrei5656]

I really like your videos. I would however like to ask why you deliberately chose to set your bombs in manual mode and change targets by hand instead of just letting the Auto mode take care of cycling the GPS targets for you? Thank you.

[@mdkultra6879]

The main reason I do this is to controllably ripple bombs. Kind of a holdover from flying the F26, but usually I’ll drop two to three bombs on one target, usually naval, with a half to full second delay between them which keeps them from blowing each other up, but also prevents CIWS from intercepting both. For a simple bombing run I’ll leave it on auto, but if I’m allocating multiple bombs to one target, I’d rather cycle them myself

[@Andrei5656]

@@mdkultra6879 i see. Thank you :)

You can command wingmen to jam!? *makes new note* Note: Your music is only offensive to people with bad taste and whiney attitudes.
