Ok, *4* direct hits with my antitank weapon and the chopper is still FLYING!?!?

[BigBadBob]

the grenade launchers are great for the blackhawk. Just shoot it inside and take out the people inside. Then get it smoking and it will leave/die/crash. Problem solved.

Right... now lets try it with 50 nuclear bullets coming at you per second.

That's right. Grenade launchers do more damage inside the chopper than AT rockets and it's easier to aim them. It takes few shots to kill engys and then the BH is vulnerable.

Hunting Black Hawks is fun to do with your team of course. Just run under the BH and start popping with grenade launcher or AT rockets. One man isn't enough, so get friends. There isn't any guns under BH, but someone can drop hand grenades, so beware. But if you keep firing, the engineers will be busy repairing or getting killed so they don't have the time to drop anything. It's of course hazardous to attack the BH and you get killed a lot, but it's so rewarding when it goes down.

A good pilot can pull up for a while and wait for engy's to spawn in and start all over again.

TItle about says it all... this is ridiculous. Air assets are too tough in this game. They should require better piloting not the overpowers they have right now. Choppers hsould stay behind rises, pop up to do the nasty, and float off away, not HOVER OVER A FLAG taking 4 SHOTS from my tank weapon and laugh it off, turn on me and riddle me with bullets!

The bullet riddling part is cool as lopng as it happens BEFORE I hit the mofo with my antitank weaponry...

what if they were repairing the chopper while u were reloading your weapon.

[robodoc]

bh will be useless after the patch

you don't run right up to it, stay back a little and find some cover or place you can blend in. You can get 3-4 shots and do some major damage before they find you.

And don't shoot at them with them looking right at you, that just makes it easier for them.

The M1A1 primary round is wimpy.. sounds like a fart.. has very
little splatter.. obviously DICE has never seen a real one..

The choppers are too powerful...especially with a pilot and gunner,
I wouldnt mind as much if they werent capable of capping a flag by
just hover over it, which is the silliest thing in this whole game..

Easy to say, the nade launchers are just like the AT rockets, the engies repair to full health before you can reload, your only chance is to kill them, and for that you need to be facing the sides to the blackhawk no?

If you wait for ideal conditions, they've already capped the flag and are on to the next one. "Major damage" is also a bit misleading considering they can be back to full health again while travelling to the next flag.

Under test conditions, it's 3 AT rounds to take out a BH. 2 if you fire them at the minigun hole (the suicide shot). Contray to what some have written, two Stingers only take it into the upper red. They will only take it out if it's already damaged.

I would say their armour is ok so long as engineers are taken out of the equation though.

[Dearmad]

Well I say at least forcing choppers and jets to LAND in order to get new munitions and repair would be a good start. No more in the sky repair/resupply... that is just too stupid.

[lcplsickoll]

It probly had 3 engineers in the chopper repairing, you gotta land your rocket in the cab and kill all the engies to take it down.

Exactly

[Dearmad]

Yeah, right- I'll break cover and expose myself to the exploding bullets from hell to land that perfectly aimed shot at the flag.

On top of it all they were capping a flag which is also stupid... and 1.03 better fix this.

umm...right. So you havent seen the smoke path that the rockets leave? You are dead in an instant if they have any clue what they are doing.

I agree with this entire post. Copters are too damn tough. I have killed tanks and those six wheel things faster and easier than those copters. They need less armor AND no flag caps from air. Or at least slow down the capping ablitly, maybe equal just the pilot, not the crew.

Best tactic I have found in defense against the BH crew is 3-4 C4's on top of the flag pole. Once they start hovering, just click and you get 5 kills + 5 flag defense points. A very good use of C4...

It is actually how I got my C4 badge after takeing down 4 BH's in one round. You would think teh pilot would have figured it out but oh well...

Ive taken out some copters with C4 while they are hovering but not others....does anyone know how high C4 blast will be deadly?
