Nailing tanks in the butt with a Pilum only carries so much amusement for a while. Having unlocked the SAAW some time ago, I'm after hunting a few gunships and transports instead.
But, I'm having trouble getting the 'knack' - in particular against the even moderately good gunship pilots.
I wait until the tone provides a lock-on and then fire the SAAW - keeping the mouse button held down all the way. Sure enough, the SAM goes after the gunship, but often starts circling it rather than hitting it and exploding it. On top of that, it takes SOOOOOOOOO LOOOOOOONNNNGGGG to get the lock, most gunships turn around on the spot and strafe me in a matter of seconds.
What am I doing wrong?
