Instant vehicle should be banned in Ranked servers IMO. Does my head in and gives no reward for taking one down and no real disadvantage to the team who just lost their chopper.

Just wondering but does anyone else find it easier to use the lav-d for taking down aircraft rather than the Tunguska? I dunno what is, just seems like the minigun being offset seems to give a guide to leading targets, which you obviously don't really have on the Tunguska.

The LAV-AD is much better than the dunguska. The Dungpile gets stuck on all objects and is so slow. Makes it a lot harder to dodge TV missles with it

I just find it easier to aim with for some reason, can tear a jet a new cornhole pretty fast with the lav, Tunguska not so easy for whatever reason, and id bet in terms of stats for damage they're the same. :confused:

Absolutely it shouldn't be an option as its really only used for padding vehicle stats. I also found on the few occasions I strayed onto these servers that because the vehicles spawn instantly the same person will keep the vehicle for most the game.

Oh and I was accused of cheating again, happy days.
 
Quite enjoying the AN-94 at the moment. I have been playing with all the guys from the Symthic team and they are AN-94 obsessed. Gotta say, once you get that finger tap down, you blow people away in no time at any range.

There are only two setups I'd ever use on it tho, RDS / Kobra (your preference) + Underslung + HB or on the biggest maps I might equip the russian 3.4 times scope. This is the one gun you should never put a foregrip on, with US + HB your first two shots land in exactly the same spot. Finding it great for all those head glitching spot on bazaar, well and the trusty magnum for those too :D
 
Was in a game earlier on the same side as a few clan members (a selection of all different clans), that was an annoying game to be in, all they did was base rape and one moron in particular could do nothing but spout endless "you're mad, you mad bro UMAD" over and over and over against a guy in the other team who was telling them to wise up. :rolleyes: The way this one **** was getting on you'd think he was doing something special, taking out helicopters and jets that haven't even started to take off, mad skillz y0!

Spouting outdated net memes and baserape, doesn't get sadder than that.

Pilot :D

Man it's hard, it's not a normal Heli 2vs2 at all. We don't get to use ECM / Flares / Guns or Guided. It's just Extinguisher / Rockets / Heat Seekers (no ecm so gotta keep below radar or chance it) and TV missiles. Should be a good watch, even if I do spend the entire time just crashing into dem dam tree's / pole's.

Oh yeah, and dodging TV missiles controlled by a top US gunner while only 4 feet off the ground, 2 feet away from a building and surrounded by trees is a real hard nut to crack.

Yeah I find trying to hit a target with the Tunguska is like trying to hit a heli with a handgun while riding a pushbike down some stairs ...were as using the LAV-D is a whole different story I find its pretty easy to use even at long range it's pretty bang on ...well going by the colourful comments i get in the chat box anyway after I've taken a few helis lol ....and I have no issues sitting behind a rock to do it either :D

Same here I'm usually behind something then get called "AA noob" by the jet monkeys. I really find it amusing they take so much offence to being shot down by a vehicle that's meant to do it. If you use the Heat seekers you're a noob, if you snipe the pilot out of the cockpit, you're a noob, you really can't win with some people :)

Switch to the losing team and help them break out of spawn, it's more rewarding to fight for the underdog I find.

My preferred technique is below radar I am very good at flying fast and low but most gunners get scared and bail or tell me I'm choppering wrong :p Wish I had known about this competition before it was full!
 
It's not about flying fast and low, it's about using the buildings as cover from TV's and using them to cover your movements. Oh and it's on a Dallas server so wish us luck with dat laaaaaaag.

edit.....mildly bricking it now :D
