Re: Chopper Question

Ya, it would be pretty cool if we could use the Tiger HAP in Vanilla.

Gonna' have to add it to the list of hopes and dreams for BF2.

i also think that somehow the EU weapons should be in vBF2

dreaming is so fun, coz even if EA did do it, it wouldn't be how we wanted it anyways

Re: Chopper Question

FAMAS > ALL... Well if I had an AK-47 on city maps that would be insane..


And the tiger sucks..

I mean it's good, it handles almost better than the cobra, and has a big *** cannon like the havoc, but it has like 30* to work with for chaingunning.. And that's not even the worst part. The tiger, once you go into a dive, you aren't pulling out of it. Don't even bother trying to solo in one..

Re: Chopper Question

Alt-F10 will put the Helo in sustain mode where it doesn't rotate or descend.

Re: Chopper Question

I was gonna' bring up the cannon thing with the Tiger HAP, but it's never really been much of a problem for any of my gunners so it's best left out.

I wish I could have the Assault gun from EF for Vanilla. I don't know if that's the FAMAS you speak of Metallica.

Re: Chopper Question

over time, like sloi and others, (with practice) i'm sure you will actually switch too fast...you/ll get glitches in the helo that no one talks about in forums because very very few players see these glitches in the helo.

yea they get worse on high ping (100+) servers, but 99% ok with a 15ping.

last week switching to gunner and firing the tv when i went back to pilot somehow i was in a full barrel roll, a perfect one, and managed to keep it going for the last second and skimmed over the water about a few inches while surviving. couldnt duplicate it if i tried, if i told someone i was soloing they woulda laughed at me.

ive had many a close shave in my time lol.

if you angle it pointing down too much or dont have enough height, you get a shock when you come out of the tv screen :laugh:

Generally, whenever I'd go in a hard dive on airshow, I just tilted to the closest side and pulled up... it worked 95% of the time. :)

i can go on a 70 degree nose dive and Tv armour and pull up easy even really close to the ground, even solo machine gunning infantry on a steep dive, its the unexpected barrel rolls that throw off my game.

u got the kill fast and had enough hieght to survive, go for a max range shot while close to the ground

And how do you propose you're going to be able to do that anyway? The AH can practically float for the entire time it takes to fire off a TV and have it burn out, that's all I know.


Does spinning help soloing, that's what I wonder. Many a time I've spun round like hell before firing a TV shot, and the heli stays very stable, compared to when not spinniing.

yup spin it as you shoot and the heli wont loose much height, easy to recover from as well.

Re: Chopper Question

I don't believe the helo loses any height, infact you start to increase height when you switch for a few seconds

*Just don't switch under like 20ft or w/e, then you're helo doesn't spin, it drops lol

Re: Chopper Question

Hit Alt-F4 right before you hit F2 and it will auto stabalize the chopper.
