UAV not real in BF2

[Rambo]

Ok iwas watching descovery channels extreme machines last nite and the UAV is not a radar as such but it does have one onboard as it flies overhead at from 500ft to 10000 ft, the UAV is actually a Unmaned Airial Vehicle!
So i thought it would be great if u could see it and shoot it down!also they said the apatchie(spelling :s)helo fully armed can take down up to 14 tanks and a killing range of 5 miles like WOW:p

Wow 10000 feet... you cant even fly up that high

Re: UAV not real in BF2

Yep it took me a while to figure out that UAV stood for Unmanned Arial Vehicle. I always wondered why the UAV was the shape it was until I looked at some real UAVs. The UAV flies so high usually that its virtually impossible to shoot it down.

I was thinking though.......what if they were to add a remote UAV building (in BF2) where people could control UAV's. They will behave like helicopters but much smaller. You can attack people with its machine gun, but people can easily shoot it out of the air. Cool new vehicle. Just a thought....

Re: UAV not real in BF2

a real UAV would fly a search pattern, so they simplified the whole thing by using a radar-like...thing....to reveal the area.

would be cool if you could shoot it down, but it doesnt last long anyways and it would be really hard to shoot down before it disappears anyways

Re: UAV not real in BF2

I'd love to see a Predator, UAV with 2 Hellfires on the outboards.

On second thought, no. My little sniper arse would be fragged 3 ways to Sunday on hilltops with that.

Wow I hope you're kidding. Planes (can) fly much higher than 10,000 feet.

EDIT: unless you mean in BF2, then disregard the above.

Re: UAV not real in BF2

I already mentioned that in the "Commander is teh SuX" or some other hating thread name like that. Anyway, a game made by Atari called Act of War : Direct Action, has a side called Task Force Talon which can deploy Global Hawks (The big bro of Predator UAVs) that are armed with AGM-114 Hellfires that fly across the map and smite any foolish Armor dumb enough to be in it's flight path. It maybe fragile, but that doesn't matter when it's stealthed until it's open fired on it's target.

Yeah, most fighter planes can go to 50,000 feet, high altitude interceptors like the Mig-25 Foxbat can go like over 60000 feet.

the UAV is a total disgrace to first person shooters.. Its down right
laughable.. yes, I actually laughed the 1st time I saw it in the game..

It shows which way the enemy is facing, even...and they are nearly
constant (if you have a decent commander that is......) the whole game.
Since when on any battlefield, anywhere does your entire side have
constant knowledge of where ALL the enemies are, even ones hiding
in buildings, under structures, and like I said, it even shows which way
they are facing.

Why even have a sniper class ? The whole point of a sniper is accuracy
and stealth.. THERE IS NO STEALTH IN BF2. Which is sad sad sad.

Combine this silly UAV with the ARTY and you got one silly @ss game.

They should have went ahead and gave everyone light sabres, and
jet packs if they were going to be g@y.

BF2 was ALMOST a awesome game.. But it turned into a pathetic
piece of unfinished crap, played by a multitude of goof offs and kiddies.

Re: UAV not real in BF2

Total Agreement with Noobzilla it should have been --ONLY-- guns,rockets(missiles)and tank shells!, fixed individual arty canon is ok tho because the accuracy is not 100%>Before you could flank people and take em out but now

so....anything that i don't kno?

Re: UAV not real in BF2

real UAV's aren't anything like they are in BF2. Nothing in bf2 is like real life. Heck, for those of you who know of the f-22 raptor, if you want to know something scary, they are working on a pilotless version of the plane. Why? Because the plane can take G's and do manuevers that the human body cannot withstand, so make it remote controlled, and you have one scary plane.

UAV's are to the point where they dont even need to have a guy on the ground flying it. They can program it to fly over an area, and just sit back and drink coffee or something while it flies to its destination and preforms it's mission.

Tip: You can destroy opposing commander assets

Yes fascinating this is called autopilot. I'd like to see how consistent they are at destroying targets that have deviated from their original position.
