    Re: Eurocopter... dont' try to land

    It is prone to rolling over if you turn to quick at take off. But ive landed it perfectly on the "H" just the way i found it :)

      First time I got in it, I made the mistake of turning, which I usually do to throw off any snipers camping around, before it took off. It INSTANTLY tipped and blew up killing me and my gunner.

        Yep, it's touchy.

          I don't know what you're talking about, I've been playing on SmokeScreen for a while now, and that's all I do.

          hell I went 34-2 last night in a linebacker just killing airvehicles.

            I also noticed if you try and turn or press anything other than W when taking off it will go battlefield vietnam style and just randomly spin upside down and blow up. :/

              PEACE
              Sure.....

              Only doing crazy stunts aint the aim of the game.

              The new copter is fecking horrible, to be effective in the copter u got to be able to steadily manouvre around hotspots and line up your missile range and your gunners range. Doing somersaults might be amusing for 2 minutes but it aint going to get you any kills.

              The Smoke Screen level in particular is heavily weighted in favour of the MEC due to the MEC having good choopers and also having effective bomber fighters. THe EuroFighter sucks arse also. more speed, less manouvreability.

              Everytime I go to play EF I switch it off in a foul temper within 20 minutes. If I had bought it from a shop I would be wanting my money back.

              utter crap.

                I agree, if you try to roll slightly when taking off it flips it right over, seems to be the opposite way you're holding the stick. Also when landing I've had the same issue getting heavy damage. Is there a landing great retract / deploy lag? I remember the hind in Desert Combat had the same issue. I'll look into it. That could explain the reason. You decend to fast when landing and the wheels don't have time to pop out. (just a guess at this point.)

                  500 kmh !!!! Fecking fantastic .. o apart from you need a chute to act as an airbrake to get in on targets .. unless you throttle down spray and pray and dissappear into the great blueyonder

                      I found if you try to land real softly, it falls on oneside, like there is awheel missing on the Bottom. Also, if you land "Normally" it takes 1/5 of health off the Chopper. I'm gonna try landing again in Third Person so I can get a SS of this one legged monster, just plain weird if you ask me.

                        Hahah, that's like the terrible MEC cargo chopper. That tricycle, if not landed perfectly, will keel over and land on 2 wheels, leaving you with the daunting challenge of taking off 45 degrees to the ground. Try convincing your squad to get into a halfway-tipped-over chopper.
