Battlefield Bad Company 2 Clubhouse

Tracerts aren't the problems for heli, tank's and jeep's machine gun are.

I took down most of them that way. Otherwise, a few lucky RPG shot when the heli was close.
 
Need the knife patch NOW!

Psh 121 tags, I need that patch now :p

Most people dont try and take out choppers with vehicles, I always do, but it does take a lot with the machine guns any good pilot can make it away land and repair the thing. Or if they are really good just circle above you and have their gunner rip you apart.
 
Yea only 121 because of the knife bug.
I have shot a few choppers out of the sky with tanks and trucks.

It's possible to knife through the bug, but you need to get that soft lock. So make sure you have a nice line to run at the back of your target and when your a few yards out line it up and let it fly, if it locks on and yanks you in, it will kill them. But you need to have that lock on charge, the close quarters lock on that just turns your camera usually won't work.

Also my best chopper shot was with a T90 on atcama. Leaving the Russian spawn hit a chopper that was flying right by B then used the raised buildings at A as cover and hid behind them I led my shot (had to lead them by basically that entire towns length), fired then continued driving figuring it was a for sure miss, but it massed over A and hit them on the other side, they were too low for more to see behind the buildings, I just kinda sat there stunned. But I find the best way to hit helis on that map is, point your tank up on a small hill, choppers try and cross high and don't think you can 1 shot them, so you get it so your barrel points way up, then just blow them clean out of the sky when they try and float above you.
 
That does the job, beside there's only 1 heli present at any moment vs 2-3 tanks. As long as it's not on the sky it helps.

Heli is deadly, it's a right thing for it to "die fast". Even tanks can't survive really long.
 
Im still getting better at it but im getting there lol.
I got good with the m24 and hitting people on atcoma from A to C when running.If they are at B and in the open they are as good as dead lol.
 
Well, I just unlocked the UMP-45 for the engineer, so I won't have to worry about unlocks anymore. I don't have any weapons unlocked for recon, but there are a few things I just won't do. I don't smack women around, I don't poke little puppies in the eye, I don't throw sacks of kittens off bridges, and I sure as hell am not cheap or sleazy enough to play as a sniper.:D

It really sucks when you spawn into a squad of fairy "hide and shoot at people from 2 feet away from allied deployment" pud wacks. You get your arse handed to you in Rush mode, and they never offer any place worth a crap to spawn on. Nothing better than giving a guillie suit wearing sack of duke the "old rubber knife" from behind. Except maybe the Indy 500.

OR you can just sit in A base at atacama and shoot kurgan out of the sky at about 1 mile with a law launcher without a tracer. SKILLZ!

I did see that. in fact that appealed to me far more than those maps.

as to Atacama; a good pilot should not even be bothered by a single tank or jeep gunner. if there are more than two in becomes a problem. also I have come a crossed a few players who can consistently shoot me down (from any range) with the main tank cannon. this is REALLY frustrating.

but if you really want to take down a chopper; go for the AA (the one at B is by far the most effective) not only do these do significant damage, they throw off the pilots aim, and most gunners are too dumb/uncaring/unskilled to take them out (to the gunner it's usually all about the inf kills, not keeping the chopper up)

Hopfully it will come with the new patch?
 
I've found the pilots main missiles to be more effective against the AA turrets than any gunner I've had in my chopper but I usually fly in HC servers.

Hopefully, but there was a teaser video released before which had the same M14 with 4x enabled and they removed it from the game. Maybe they only use it internally.

rockets are fairly effective, but you have to hit them with every single one to kill them; and since the AA causes the chopper to lurch when hit, if the gunner isn't adding damage you go down. (this is assuming the AA gunner is half-decent)

using it internally would be a dick move. if it's working, why not add it?
 
many many badges :D

Im telling you if they add the red dot to the Thompson it would be over!!! i can rape with that gun with the SMG accuracy enabled and then getting a red dot would be over the top!
 
I see you like the 416; that is my favorite assault gun as well.


@Brandon: I haven't used Thomson too much since the beta... ill have to give it another shot.

make sure when you use it to use the SMG accuracy upgrade with it. without it its pointless

1.45v (default turbo voltage), i'm only doing turbo with 3 cores for it however.... not sure if its completely stable yet, but fingers crossed.
 
Oh ok. i was just wondering cause i might pick up one for my HTPC later on and its DDR2 board

well i got the BE so i wouldnt have to worry about ram. i'm clocking purely via multi.
 
My ASRock board is proving to be a good little clocker for a mATX HTPC. its got my Phenom II X3 720 unlocked to a full quad @ 3.2ghz 1.37V (stock is 1.32V)
