Re: Aircraft in the game.

The US forces ingame are the Marines, so it would make sense for the Cobra. Also the UH1Y Venom (AKA the Huey 2) is seen, which is only used my the USMC.

I hate the tracer dart idea. Be it choppers, tanks or whatnot. Tracer darts destroy teamwork and take away any need for skill. If you can hit a tank from all across the map, while aiming 180 degrees in another direction, shooting randomly, then you know you have a problem.

I would really like to see the Harrier jumpjet like the one in AIX 2.0, and maybe the F14 Tomcat. I doubt that will happen but I'm pretty certain that they will at least have the F16 Fighting Falcon.

haha yep, tracer idea is a crap one imo and I love mowing people that use it in BC2, and generally just overcome it (hiding vehicle etc)

good thing they won't be in BF3, people will have to actually use their brains a bit

Actually I liked the tracer concept but not how it was used in BC2; you couldn't destroy it except with smoke, everyone could equip it and spam it, there was no bullet drop (0 skill needed to aim) and it lasted too long (infinite time even if I'm right). It should have been something hard to plant and if planted on obvious places (plus the fact it was glowing) destroyed immediately with 1-2 bullets.

Re: Aircraft in the game.

it's not infinite time...

Re: Aircraft in the game.

My point still stand, it lasted too long.

I could see SU-25 and A-10 filling the role as slow ground attack aircraft.

Hey, shouldn't you be in a retirement home somewhere?

Re: Aircraft in the game.

I saw a couple people would like Blackhawks, and although I think they're cool I'd rather have the cooler USMC CH53 or CH46.





After seeing how Frostbite handled aircraft in BFBC2 I can't say that I am looking forward to any fixed-wing aircraft in this game. Hopefully they'll do a better job with aircraft...and everything, this time around, BC2 sort of failed.

Re: Aircraft in the game.

well the Huey 2 is seen as I stated before... but for authenticity reasons (because I am just that nerdy) I don't think we'll see the sea knight as its phased out iirc. If they did include it, we may see a version of the CH53 though. Though early versions have been replaced too (by later versions of the helicopter, nonetheless.)

Re: Aircraft in the game.

Phased out? I just saw three CH46s flying by a couple of days ago. They're great helicopters!

Re: Aircraft in the game.

Oh okay, my mistake. Must be in the process or something... (damn misreading wikipedia...)
