Chopper alt fire

How do I control the alt fire when piloting one of the attack chopper?

Gunner needs to mark the target with his alt fire

Re: Chopper alt fire

Ohhh. So the missile locks onto all tracers or just the copilots?

Re: Chopper alt fire

Probably, I tried it alone by shooting the tracer and it shows up as the red square on the pilot hud. I'm not sure if you have to aim at it like with AT guns for a while, which felt really hard btw, or if it automatically locks on to the nearest tracer.

Off topic, but do any of you know how exactly the vehicle specialisation works when manning vehicle with other people? Like, if I'm on the gunner seat with improved optics selected, will the tank driver get the zoom + his own specialisation ability?

Re: Chopper alt fire

So what can and cannot lock on with what?

Re: Chopper alt fire

Chopper Gunner can shoot a chopper tracer dart onto a vehicle. The pilot can then send a guided missile at that target just like you would with a tracer pistol and AT guy.

I havent seen the darts cross function though.

Re: Chopper alt fire

The chopper has his main missiles(left click) and if you use the vehicle alt fire unlock you can fire a rocket(right click) that can lock onto tracers darts fired from your gunner(right click).

Shadow has it exactly correct.

You know, would it kill game manufacturers to produce a decent game manual.

Really? I don't see how that wouldn't harm them.

All EA games have skimped on the instruction manuals.

Re: Chopper alt fire

Sorry this is very off topic but as we are on the talk of tracer darts, can the RPG lock on to tracer darts? And which others can?
