Great problems with flares etc…in a lot of games they doesn’t work at all…bug or cheats?
Bug or a skill issue.
Any specific examples of them not working?
yep…plane behind me at somewhat 2km, flares and chaff released continuosly and escape manouvers…missile do his work perfectly, like they aren’t. Same even without manouvers
What missile hit you, and are you sure that’s what happened?
i’'m not on drugs mr, I’m sure because it’s what happens to me…it happens with every kind of missiles, even if with other players they work (same plane and missiles…)…is it a known bug?
It depends on what missile…
If you’re in a jet and in full afterburn and something like a 9L is behind you, from 2km it’ll still hit you as long as you’re still afterburning. AIM-9M/RB 74(M)/AAM-3 will probably go for your flares, R-73/Magic 2/R-27T/ET will ignore those flares.
Also if you’re flying too high and your RWR is sounding off it just might be a radar missile.
ALSO, if your opponent is being really cheeky you might’ve just got done by a laser-guided air-to-ground missile.

but there is a situation where flares and chaff toghter can be ignored by missiles?
Against advanced radar missiles, chaff won’t work in rear aspect shots.
IR missiles with IRCCM will sometimes ignore flares as well.
We can’t help you unless you actually tell us what missile hit you and what plane you were in.

sometime is r3, sometimes is aim9 (e-d too) etc… this happens with all kind of missiles
What were you in?
What missile?
Were you sat in reheat?
A LOT more information is needed to give an answer. Better yet, share the replay

Really we can’t help him unless he shows us a clip. It’s easy for him to say he was doing the right thing, but in all likelihood he wasn’t.

Yes, if you go to the replay website, you can copy the link and paste it.
Do you have any day you remember the last one happening. I checked your matches from the 10th-present and i have not seen anything.
I have seen some missile shots you did that are “concerning”. I understand that AB has reloads but like why did you make this shot? You fired both of your missiles here

I don’t remember… but there’s something that is not possible. I can’t shoot without locking on target. Or I have a bugged game, in some kind that i don’t know, or strangely the enemy doesn’t appear in replay ;) And this last option would be a blatant proof of some hack by someone. I hope this last option isn’t the right thing. Maybe i must uninstall and then reinstall the game…really…missiles going to nowhere…c’mon

If you can lock a Target Doesnt mean the missile will reach the target. You send a AIM-9E at Pretty Low Speed at a Target which was 7.7kms Away. The missile Would Never Hit
Would you like me to go into detail on how you can avoid this issue in the future?
