BF2S Forums I love it when this happens!

that happened to me too many times

sigh

now i just go beneth them or just veer off from loooong distance

speaking of rams i was in a chooper and a sergant major on my team is flying  jet and decides that he is too lasy to fly around me so he tries to fly through me hehe,

needless to say it didnt work too well

i was taking off on a runway and a chopper hit me and he blames me for ramming him... wtf. atleast i got the 2 kills

hahahhahahah!

Yeah I hate it when the Essex doesn't yield. And those mountains! They think they can just sit there, hello? There's a war going on here? The nerve..

Your wit knows no bounds.

I can get real close to choppers and missle/shoot them then veer off inches away killing them, while using my dads computer with his sweet joystick.. but my joystick is old and loose, and the reaction speed SUCKS so I always hit the chopper, then they call me a noob lol.

Ya, I need a new stick.

the jet is attacking , the Jet see's him! the Jet knows the chopper wil manouver to keep alive
so i blame the jet yes

OMG the jet is faster and more manueverable! your fault! z0mg!

It doesn't stop crazy-assed helicopters from flipping out and moving themselves to a completely different place in the sky (often where you move to avoid them) in under half a second. Sure, you're faster and more manueverable, but you don't have alot of time to respond when the situation suddenly changes like that. Thus, you cannot always manuever away from something while in a plane. Too much forward momentum in some cases, and occasional fits of lag in others. Jet pilots could always play it safe and stay 300m away from their targets, but then they could also obey air traffic laws, land to repair, and never buzz troops and roadkill enemy soldiers by flying a foot off the ground. Honestly, where is the fun in that? Half of my plane on chopper kills have come from last minute missile releases in single passes, which unfortunately leads many chopper pilots to believe I've collided with them when I haven't. Ah, the kickvotes...

Now, I fly both planes and helicopters, so I am not biased either way. When I am flying in a helicopter, I know that a plane who waits to the last minute to veer off while strafing me is going to pull up. I also know that it is difficult to track a helicopter that suddenly moves to the side, rather than in a vertical direction. When a helicopter moves down, a plane will often have to point its nose downward to hit you, increasing their speed and thus increases their risk of colliding with buildings, terrain, or their target. Therefore, with this knowledge in mind, when being strafed I'll start spinning to the side and dropping altitude...even when I don't know where the plane is coming from. Presenting such an erratic and dropping target to jet pilots has consistantly saved me from being blown up in one pass, giving me time to go for repairs or hop out.

Sure, I suppose some accusation of greed can be assigned to the plane pilot, but you can't assign sole blame of a collision to him when a chopper (sometimes knowingly) veers up into him. Suprisingly, I don't see half as many people complaining about kamikaze C4 strikes that take out two to ten enemy flaggers as I do about accidental mid-air collisions.

I like it best when jets dont turn on their AA and they dont shoot a single bullet while flying head on to you...

Now that's a case of dumbass kamikazeism. lol

Guess why? You put yourself in that situation! DUH. Choppers can only move at a certain speed, and you know that. No matter how hard the pilot is hitting that throttle! Choppers don't go out of their way to hunt jets. A few exceptions would be when I'm having a friend line a TV shot for me. This means most of the time, the chopper won't even know you are charging at him. So who has more control over the situation? Think about it. Being the faster one in the sky, it is ALWAYS the option for you to veer off early, where as a chopper won't always have that option when a greedy jet is strafing at you at dangerously close range. Who said you need to veer off at 300m from taget? Quit playin dumb, all you gotta do is to pull up a split second earlier than you usually do when making passes. It's that simple. Jet's complaining about getting rammed by choppers is the stupidest complain I hear in the game. Cracks me up each time.

omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg thats soo tragic i mourne your loss.........
hey whos up for some bf2 i call shotgun

that just happened to me. i was on wake, 52 for 0 when i veer up too steep into a BH, people start bitchiing, like "geez stryyker cant hit shit so you have to ram? noob"

i made it all better by making sure they never got the BH again tho
