Re: Did they increase the Helicopter HP again?
I believe a tank shell does the same damage to a heli as an AT round, and an AT round does 50%, so unless the chopper has already been damaged at least 50%, a tank round won't kill it. It's always been this way. This is referring to attack helis, mind you, as transports are more durable and would take more than two tank shells to kill.
I still think it's a crime for the littlebirds to be able to survive an AT round, though. :hmm:

I think it's more than 50%, more like about 70% or something, because you can often gun them down after with ease.

Also, what happened to being able to pick explosives up? I can't seem to get it to work anymore (or do I remember that feature from 2142?)
