Re: Flying cow pwnage

Yesterday on FuShe Paß I knocked a gunner out of a Seahawk with my medic unlock. Just goes to show you you're not defenseleß against them. You just have to hide near the flag. This way you're too close for their minis to be able to angle down and shoot you. Don't give away your position until you have a good shot, them BLAMO! One down.

It is alot easier to pop a 203 or an Anti-Tank rocket through the gaping hole in it's ass end though,so it kinda balances that aspect out.

Isn't the cockpit on the other end of it's aß end? Wouldn't the missile hit that?

Well typically you are on the ground or some such and it's above you,and as such it typically hits the roof of the crew area.There has been a coupld of occasions where I have killed most of the crew using 203's doing this,and once killed a full crew with an anti tank rocket.

I suppose if you are on a roof or something elevated then it might go all the way through but the anti tank has enoguh control that if you are sharp you can quickly arc it to the floor or roof,and the 203 flies in an arc anyway so it is less liekly to hit the front with out hitting something else first unless you are straight on shooting into the hole.

The thing about that chopper with the Ass end is that the guys manning those positions usually are not shooting at you,you have a clear shot and you are fairly safe unless the chopper is in a solid hover and they can get a clear shot with thier primary weapons,with BH's you are alot more vulnerable as most clear shots to the crew will also put you in LoS of the min guns,unless of course like described above you manage to get under the chopper.

There are plusses and minuses to both,I find however that it is much harder as an engineer to fond the fix icon in the Cows like I have to constantly mouse around in the cab to be able to get the fix icon to show where as with the BH's I can pretty much click anywhere to fix them.I think that is why players have a much easier time of downing a fully manned Cow then they do a BH.

I scored something like 120 points once in the flying cow on FuSHe pass, I was pilot and support, the others were engineers and snipers and you just fly from flag to flag dropping nades and claymores as you go. Just spamming goodies out the back nets you huge points, and it's a plus if you kill someone from the other team or catch a flag.

We also took to hovering high and off to one side with the rear pointing to the flag, then you let the snipers or AT go to work from this high vantage point. Another thing to try is sitting over the top of a flag at great height and drop tons of nades on it. You have to be just high enough so that the nades dont blow in the air. Without the miniguns of the BH you are reduced to this kind of nonsense, since the BH can clear out a flying cow in seconds with those guns it has. The walls are no protection, you get drilled no matter what you do.
