ACR DLC Fireworks mission - How do you contact the rocket battery?

[Zorg_DK]

What am I supposed to do when I spot the rebel camp and vehicles? I don't see any menu to contact the rocket battery. Cheers.

After you've contacted the HQ about the vehicles being there, you have to be at a reasonable distance to the camp (I was at the small wall in the woods north of it), then use the radio menu (0-0 or was it 0-8?) to order in the fireworks. Took me a while to figure that out too...

I have walked in and killed all the people in the camp area and nothing happens, and I have no radio options.

You have to use the target selector first to identify the vehicles. Just look at each one of them through the selector until the orange box turns green. Once you've done that you'll automatically contact the HQ and report.

After that you call in the artillery using the laser and radio menu.


The mission handling sure is tricky, since there is zero "how-to"...

Ok, thanks for the tips guys.

I'm starting to get annoyed with the ACR campaign. I also got stuck on the 2nd mission and I had to drive around checking each waypoint several times. I could never finish the mission though, and had to press shift numpad - and type endmission to proceed.

only after I read this and looked sharply, I managed to notice the colored boxes. Very faint indeed.

a bit OT here, but: a bit away from each question mark (where you encounter resistence) you receive a task "check this hill" or something like that, and if you got all of these, then the mission ends properly. If you seem to be stuck, just check where you haven't been yet.

Another a bit badly designed mission in the "campaign".
First you basically have to crawl into the found camp to be able to identify all the vehicles (unless there's a 1,5km high hill somewhere near by so that you can see over all the forest?) and then you're supposed to guide the arty from a safe distance but the only way to guide it is to stay basically in the camp (again unless there's a 1,5km high hill somewhere near by so that you can see over all the forest)..

That mission is also quite badly designed, you basically have to drive around the map for hours and there is no fuel truck anywhere.
Nor ammo truck

The only actually good mission this far has been the mission you hunt the escaping guys.

i have to agree with you.

There isn't a fuel truck but there is a fuel station in Novy Sobor. There is a repair truck too. Hint: It's parked a bit close to the back wall. As for ammo, yeah that kind of sucks but you just have to conserve ammo. Otherwise you can just drive in the Pandur all day and never dismount.

One can also capture, repair, and use a BRDM if necessary!
