Has anyone else had a problem with the SAAW 86 when trying to lock on to targets?  Sometimes it just doesn't.

might be similar to when I can't seem to lock onto enemy transports 50% of the time?  I usually still aim as if I was locked and fire the secondary (emp missiles) at them and they still track as if locked.  Try that, see if it works.

The game is coded so crap, all you can lock onto is UAV drones, at least in the AA guns.

Isn't the SAAW 86 just a guided rocket like the others?  I'm pretty sure that it only qualifies as AA because it goes fast, it turns fast, and you can kill a gunship in two shots (and you can fire twice before reloading)

shortly ... NO It is a tracking weapon, it should lock on

but answering the first question, yes i too have had problems with it not locking on, sometimes even locking on to gunships and not on transports or the other way around...

Does the SAAW 86 have AA bullets too or just missiles?

Seems here's another few bugs that I've missed out on. Woohoo for me!
Whoa... Can't believe these forums are still kicking.

Just missiles, but it rocks. The only thing it won't lock onto sometimes is the Transports. A minor annoyance. I'm still deadly with it.
