Homing Launcher Not Locking On in First Person ADS
I've noticed that when I'm in FPS view and I'm aiming down the viewfinder, the launcher locks on to the vehicles, but when I fire facing directly at the target, the missle will fire straight forward as if I never locked on to anything. Anybody else having this issue? If this problem is occuring for other players, I should make mention of it on the page and later I'll contact Rockstar Support.

 * You must wait till the HUD goes Red before you fire, that confirms locking on, and dead-locks the missile. Firing it before it turns red (eg, green) will cause it to function like a Rocket Launcher - not locking on to the Object it located. Monkeypolice188-Signature LSPD.png Loudhailer-V-render.png StunGun-GTA5-ingame.png 19:14, July 25, 2015 (UTC)
 * That's what I do. I let the lock-on square turn red, but when I fire, the missle will not follow the target.

 * Being too quick might result in the missile not locking on. I've had that when I fired immediately when the lock-on target turned red. 19:23, July 25, 2015 (UTC)

Homing Launcher not locking on to helicopters that you find randomly
I have noted that when you find a random helicopter (Not a Pegasus helicopter) like a cargobob or a maverick it cannot be locked on by anything, not by a homing launcher nor a Hydra, Furthermore I did some research and started a one on one deathmatch with a savage thus making my opponent spawn in a savage backed out of the the one on one and i could not target his savage with a homing launcher or my own savage.

Someone else conform this isnt just me (XB1 Confirmed)OOO Karma NL (talk) 00:02, August 16, 2015 (UTC)
