    Re: Solo Helicopter?

    Well, I don't necessarily think that it's easier in SP, because I'm used to the lag and know how to compensate for it

      Well, heres ab example of my TVGM shot. I click "left" mouse and the screen freezes. I regain control of the TVGM while its about 50-100 metres in flight and I gte choppy and laggy picture with about 5-10 FPS. In other words. If the target is within 100 metres from me, I have one click, one chance.

      I dont copilot the chopper unless I absolutely have to. I can manage, but only if I have a pilot that lines me up for perfect shots. I, at least, have some sense of respect for the game, my team and my coplayers that when Im challenged, hardware wise, I dont waste essential team item.

      Yet Ive taken my time to get to know the basics of the copiloting in SP, just to not to be a moron using cannons on a tank...

        That´s why I said that training in SP is insuficent training...it is far more easy to be a good gunner.

        I played SP, and I play MP with my clan...I am not a newbie as a gunner. I just don´t play in public servers.

            I thought that was just how this game is in MP. That happens to me with 60FPS (vsync) and a ping of 35. Inside of 100m or so, I don't get much chance to guide it. Most people in my clan have the same issue. I figured at this point it was normal. Much like all the different sounds in SP and the TV HUD is slightly different.

              I agree.

                  If you read the whole thread, I think I cover my opinion well. Let me recap: if nobody wants to be your gunner, then there is nothing wrong with solo-ing. If you hog the helicopter to exploit seat switching or selfishly accumulate points, then you are a lamer.

                    I don't "spread religious bs" why don't you stay on topic, or don't post. Don't try to hijack this thread, and start a "religious" debate.

                    Very well said, and my point exactly.

                      Oh Im sorry. Didnt know you were so sensitive. Here, have a tissue.

                      Ive seen some very odd sh!t pulled off by various people using various equipment. From commanders, up to snipers driving boats, yet I do not lable all players who practice their technique more or less as "lamers" just because I dont like that they dont play for other people.

                      To recap, unless said player doesnt harm your gameplay, you shouldnt have a problem. Otherwise were looking at pure pointjealousy here.

                        Again we agree (this is scary) only time I ever kicked a soloer on our server was a few months ago, I don't recall his/her name, but I just booted them anyways, not a ban.

                        Anyways, I seen two players arguing in the text chat (this is breaking one of rules, "Arguing will not be tolerated) the Cobra pilot kept saying "get out" "get out" "get out" and of course the gunner was saying go, go, go....and they commenced arguing about how "sucky" the gunner was, and what a "jerk" the soloer was, and how much better the soloer was by himself and such, so I warned them both to stop arguing, and told the solo pilot to take the gunner and get to fighting....

                        Well this started even a bigger fight, so I booted them both, and if they would have comeback and said one more word about the situation, I would have banned them both.

                        I'm not against a pilot "soloing" what I am against is people disrupting OUR server that we pay money for and "hindering" the game by arguing about how much better soemone is than the next guy. And, I'm very much against the seat-switching bug that effects the missle lock, which I personally think alot of soloers exploit.

                            Well good for you, this shows something about what kind of person you are, I don't hate anyone because of there race, religion or ethnic background.

                            You're probally a racist as well.

                              Please explain to me why soloing gives you more points than if you were a gunner for a competent pilot? It's not like you get more points per kill if you don't have a pilot...?

                                I believe you lie...

                                Reacting the way you do, makes it obvious you like provoking anger from others as well...
                                Think about this and be well...
