So I got in the gunner seat of an attack helicopter with a good pilot and finally got some unlocks. As much as I want to, I think I'm gonna stay away from jets. I can't even shoot down helicopters or soldiers standing around without crashing or being shot down. I think if I had a gunner like in the campaign mission or missiles of some kind it'd be a bit easier. Also, I don't think being an engineer makes a huge difference on flying or driving, unless you can land and repair (which is hard to do).

On a funny note, someone set a helicopter down to repair on one of those maps you attack from the carrier and I stole it. They weren't too happy, but also weren't prepared to shoot it down either lol.

we're supposed to do that maneuver to avoid the Heatseekers , right? ( the middle one )

[Arkanna]

Any maneuver where you can out-turn the missile should work.

And I learned last night, much to my disappointment, that Javelins won't track air targets. FUCK!

[supercoco]

yep

I dont see the point to use the Javelin over Rpg to be honest.

IRNV + Foregrip + Heavy Barrel on KH2002 = Beast mode. Single shot mode = you can hit fairly far away targets accurately while 3 shot burst mode tends to kills just about anyone at mid to close range if all 3 shots hit.

If i put my SOFLAM on the floor and then i change to other class, will it dissapear?

I love IRNV. I run with that on G36C with either Suppressor or Heavy Barrel. I was in the worst games last night for a while. Actually it was just my team that was horrible. They all seemed only to want to fly around the map and no one was actively going after points or trying to keep them. So... I finally just switched teams and it was glorious from then on.

[supercoco]

ok.. we can use our Javelin against air vehicles, but they should be locked with SOFLAM. Had no idea

[Ohemgee]

What is SOFLAM?

[kuronosan]

Laser designation.

[Seanr]

What is SOFLAM?

shout out for lasering a mothafucka

[Arkanna]

What is SOFLAM?

It's a recon unlock. Basically a remote-controlled black-and-white camera with a zoom that lets you paint targets remotely. It's pretty useless without capable squadmates though.

[Ohemgee]

Yeah sounds useless without knowing someone who has it unlocked.

I need to finish the Single Player and Co-Op this weekend for the weapons unlock

[Arkanna]

I bet a SOFLAM Recon combined with good squadmates that have guided weapons unlocked, makes for a potent squad though. Gonna have to work on that.

[Qalbert]

Hey Seanr/anyone interested, Tyven and I are planning to play tonight around 8ish.

Cool story: Yesterday when I was defending Kharg Island on Rush, an attacker got out of his LAV to arm Alpha, and when he did, I hopped in his LAV, took him out, then went out and wiped out any attacker who came near the objectives. Don't know why they never put a rocket on me, but I stayed in the LAV the rest of the game and went 17-1. Peace.

I haven't played many FPS with vehicles so excuse the noob questions. Is there a point in shooting at vehicles with a normal gun? If so, where is the best place to aim?
