Beefing up Transport Choppers on all sides?

Re: Beefing up Transport Choppers on all sides?

Interesting how much EA ignors our polls

Re: Beefing up Transport Choppers on all sides?

problem fixed... here go, patch 1.4! more armor for your transport choppers

Re: Beefing up Transport Choppers on all sides?

How about take off 1 of the passenger weapons and give the pilot control of some hellfire missiles

Re: Beefing up Transport Choppers on all sides?

Thin is most of da time its a noob pilot and if the pilot levels out for more than 2 secs u will b bumraped by AT rockets and mayb even tank fire.

i want splash damage :p otherwise the pilot has to b hoverin steadily for u to make a kill

not even that, just has to level out. i think this is the major reason people want splash damage, they dont want to have to talk to thier pilot, nor aim.

Buff up the gun's with more splash damage and more damage is all I have to say.

how about more accuracy rather than splash damage?

lol i like this debate Vintageologist Vs. Roger Smith :P

i think me and vintageologist came to a compromise at least on the gun. more accurate and or more deadly is ok but no splash damage. about armor, we could probobly debate a little more :)

LoL! i was thinking the same

Re: Beefing up Transport Choppers on all sides?

it took in the very least three symotanious at shots to take out a transport heli back then. it was a bad example, because it pertained to back then. anyhow, i wouldnt be opposed to an armo increase if we got our heli damaging small arms back.

I could be wrong but I don't remember it ever taking more than 2 hits from an AT... (if they didn't have time to repair in between)

Right, although they can also slaughter infantry in some cases, they are, like in real life less armored and less deadly than a Blackhawk, so they can usually be taken out easily, although if used correctly, the FAV and DPV can cause quite a havoc..

exactly, they can slaughter, but they can be slaughtered aswell.

As far as I can tell, what you mean is that you hit what you aim at, but you don't hit what you don't aim at, so that would be totally fine for me, the r/l gatlings don't spray that much either (yes I am for a bit of realism).

see, dont disagree at all on this matter, just a misunderstanding.

You can do it, and I won't see it as an exploit and it's a legit tactic of BF2 to me, but it can't be used as an excuse to defeat the real main purpose of the Blackhawk, which is, as a matter of fact, bringing in troops and giving fire support..

i do not deny that to be its purpose.

No really, I'm not bull****ting anyone, but show me the pilot who is able to get away when two at missiles are hitting his chopper 1 second away from each other? And it was possible and it happened.

i notice that transport vehicles arent on that list.

ps, i agree on the chain linked thing, everything weapon should be able to go through it.

i wouldnt be opposed to tightening the accuracy, as long as there isnt splash damage.

my point was that we dont have transport planes to halo from, so transport helis are the next best thing and work fine for that in bf2.

********, unless that pilot was dumb, he would break his orbit and leave for 5 seconds only to return and to maintain slaughter of an area.

Re: Beefing up Transport Choppers on all sides?

Planes could and still can slaughter, tanks can slaughter, APCs could slaughter before they were nerfed to an extent where it's just ridiculous (25mm cannons not going through chain link fence). See, all the vehicles can slaughter, that's what they are there for.

i notice that transport vehicles arent on that list. ps, i agree on the chain linked thing, everything weapon should be able to go through it.

If by fine you mean you land a single hit after bursting for 10 seconds or so, then yes, you can hit fine... but I could have switched to another seat and fired my pistol instead with similar performance.

I have no problem with that if you REALLY hit what you are aiming at, which atm is NOT the case no matter how carefull yyou aim and how short your bursts are.

i wouldnt be opposed to tightening the accuracy, as long as there isnt splash damage.

Of course you don't spawn irl, but irl another soldier of ten or hundred thousands would replace you, thus having the same effect.

Me? No. As soon as I heard a Blackhawk I'd run for cover and if I died (mostly because of other soldiers rather than the BH, I'd spawn as AT, and if my team wasn't full of n00bs, some others would do the same and get the BH down pretty fast.
