SQDM sounds nice. I should really be trying some more game types.

Spend most of my time playing Rush. The best moments I've had so far have been during intense defense & offense of a single point though.
 
No offense, but you strike me as someone who takes this just a little too seriously :p

It's true, when Spils is on vent you can hear him singing:

"This is my gustav, this is my gun, this ones for fighting, this ones for fun"

:D He doesn't at all though, honest.

Truth about hackers, I've played a fair amount and would like to think that people who are going to hack are going to be (and nearly always are) extremely obvious. Amazing score, loads of kills, no deaths, etc.

It must be said Pickle isn't cheating and if he is without hacks he must be atrocious. He is a decent player who has put in a lot of time in the game, considering he is rank 50 and has been for at least a week or two. He does often medic which means he has the LMG and as we all know they offer serious imbalance anyway. That's the game though, don't like it? Go medic and kill him back :)

Oh and Evil, I joined SAS the other night and joined the losing team. You were on the other. Our team had no bases and in the 5 minutes before the round ended I couldn't get out of the RU Base on Arica Harbour. The best guy on our team had 1k points at best and a KDR of 9/8. He was top of our board and you were still going mental in chat accusing someone of hacking :)

Maybe try and curb your enthusiasm a bit :)

On the plus side, got my platinum star with the Apache the other day! Woo!

I'd rather spam the gustav in his direction.

Or do the ventrilo classic:

See a pickle, pick it up, stab it in the back and have good luck...


or something like that :) There appears to be 100% amnesty on shooting pickle though, it's like a crazy. "I see him, I see him!!!!" and then "Awww, he saw me and shot me"

Fun times though, you should join us some time pickle at least you will be able to laugh at the guys when you get them back :D
 
plat with the apache?? That's some dedicated flying there. Are you not finding them a bit of a poor option with the new tracers and anti air options?

Well what do you expect, Arica Harbour is the worst Conquest map in the game, seriously why is it in the rotation? And that guy somehow managed to drop me to critical from half the map away with an assault rifle before my sniper shot reached his head, that was just bs, an overreaction but bs none the less. And mental? Overexaggerate much? I said it once.

Damn you Apache whore >< How the hell did you manage that in between all the tracers and rockets :p
 
It's amazing how similar our helicopter kills are Knubje

It's fairly clear that I mainly gun and you pilot :)
 
Agree Evil, I absolutely despise Arica Harbour, my most hated map in the game. It's the map that begs tubers/gustavers to spam you more so than any other map.

+1 name change for the map to Tubica Harbour or Noobica Toobica or something equivalent.

Apache platinum was actually 99% done as me as the Helli pilot and not as a gunner. I ALWAYS fly, never gun. So most kills are with the salvos or Hellifire. In the past few weeks choppering on Atakama desert has filled a gap when I get bored of the other maps. Usually got Squark/Hippo as my gunner and in vent with team work it really pays off.

Mostly done since the patch when tracers got buffed, I play on servers 24/7 Atacama with 24 people max, rather than 32 as it becomes near impossible. Originally the tracer buff was a joke but I have found perfected my flying to get out of the missle locked on my ass and then I wait until the dart has worn off and take off again :D I can probably evade 50-75% of rockets/tracers now but if there is too much spam it's impossible.

Pretty much have a way of flying now which mainly involves figure 8 the whole map using B as the middle point. Every full circuit fly by take out the AA gun on the ship and kill as many ppl as possible.

*Rubs hands with glee waiting for counter measures and improved chopper handling*


Edit:- Haha Squark, what do the columns towards the end represent? Looks slightly out of date as I can't see the platinum apache, or is that just me?

Those gun platforms are in such stupid positions. I mean seriously, the only useful AA gun on the map in plain sight of snipers? I can understand that its been done in the fashion of 'whoever holds the centre holds the AA gun' but (assuming it isn't shrapnel) going on it for longer than 5 seconds gets a sniper rifle bullet to the head ><

I really should go on some empty servers and learn to fly... i just never get any real chance to try (that doesn't end in flying into the ground or being unsure how to turn quickly and getting an RPG up the backside) :(

You really can't turn quickly in the flying whales in this game. As soon as you stop going in a straight line you lose a ton of speed and for some reason drop altitude.

Whoever coded the heli's in this game needs a kick in the nads, theyre utterly pathetic in terms of handling.

Road kills, distance travelled and average speed I think, the platinum is for all 'air vehicles', we both have it. The first medal is the calculated individual vehicle medal

Oh? I thought it was just doing it wrong :p

*remembers when i got in the Hind on Isla, tried to fly over the hill, couldn't turn and crash into a cliff* yeah...

I dunno why people get in the Blackhawk tbh, its only good for flying over and all bailing out (followed by being shot in the water). Its funny to see it circling veeeeery slowly around the islands on Isla before it gets hit with a barrage of tracers and RPGs.
 
Is there a singleplayer mission where you fly a chopper? And if so does it actually handle the same as MP?

I know theres a mission where you get a UAV but the handling is ridiculous, it handles as you'd expect for a tiny aircraft in potentially high winds... whereas MP is so insanely dumbed down.
