Great for LALO jumps too

Tef · 2008-03-18, 01:39

yeah sometime I wish that the helis would climb faster so we could get a proper HAHO jump.

i want u all to try this with the chopper on a local server. Take the chopper to some medium altitude,and dip down a bit, and then see how long it takes the chopper to pull its nose back up. U will realize that u will crash into the ground before the nose goes back up. Im not talking about a suicide dip down, im talkign about a calm nice less than 45 degree angle. Its almost as if committing suicide... anybody noticed that?

PlatinumA1 · 2008-03-18, 04:19

double post ^ and yeah the huey climbing rate is very slow and feels like its always dipping down

Yeah, i tried that yesterday, but on a public server

Flying over the mountains on Zatar i got an AA lock so i dived towards the airfield runway...and didn't pull up, crashing into the hangar...

But what i have noticed, is that i don't think there are any hitboxes on the rotor blades, so you can squeeze through really tight spaces.

What I don´t understand is why doesn´t the rudder work at all at higher speed on every chopper? And on every chopper once you dive you aren´t comming back up, especially with lower power settings....

I dont know how a chopper is sposed to behave in RL, but flying the huey really sucks. When i first got into a LB(and crashed) i thought those were the hardest to fly. Now i think LBs are way better.

Especially landing is WAY harder. Generally the whole thing is fucked up, although i dont know by what coz im not all to wised up with helos.
