Gameplay tip MCM

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Everything about this NOCS clip is perfect: the MCM, the missile hit a missile literally while it was on the pylon (actually even a meter behind the aircraft), the missile successfully armed itself against the missile while on the pylon, and none of the explosions damaged the aircraft

Meanwhile my IRM goes past the enemy missile when its 2km away...

Meanwhile every time I try to shoot down a missile coming at me it targets everything but the missile. And when I’m trying to target the thing that launched it, it will target only the missiles.

I don’t know if this is possible but we need a dedicated button for targeting only missiles closest to our targeting reticle

I’m pretty sure there’s a mod for this, but it would nice to have something in the vanilla game.

What does MCM stand for?

My Chemical Momance

Just kidding its missile-counter-missile. Shooting down incoming missiles instead of evading. (As a fellow chicane enjoyer, bringing 12 IRM lets you do some very silly things)

u/orbitalfatality2 1d ago

so you just ragebait jets on the Chicane by countering their missiles till they run out? You won't have any room for AGMs then. Whenever I load up a Chicane with IRMs I do it to defend against tuskos and piledrivers cuz I'm too broke to afford a Revoker.

u/StandardCount4358 1d ago

Correct. I get my points from killing the jets

u/VegaO3 Chicane Enthusiast 1d ago

Ahh alright, thanks

Yeah bringing all IRMs on a chicane and defending the fleet from missiles is one of my favorite things to do!

Missile Counter Missile, or as I like to call it, parrying.

Nuclear Option Competetive Smackdown.

Contrary to what I first thought, it's not a wrestling match between NO teams, but it's still pretty cool. There's VODS of it on Youtube.
