Ya i accually shot the gunner and pilot out of a cobra on shaqi and there heli was just fine it spun for like a minute out in the open but ya the glitch where the tv goes through must mean you can still hit the passengers.
If you watch the "Helicopter Tutorials: Lesson 4 - The Gunners Seat", (http://files.bf2s.com/details.php?file=405) he explains why TV missiles go through objects. There is a "sweet spot" as he calls it. This usually resides near the back of the vehicle you are aiming at. I have noticed this in many of the solo chopper videos where the missile actually looks like it misses since they hit the chopper near the back, but it ends in a kill.
Check that out and you may be albe to compensate for TV missile issues.

i was gunner on a US Attack helo one time, and a tank shot at us and the shell hit my position from the side,killed me, and kept going on trough, and the pilot/helo didnt take 1 bit of damage...think the US Helos are bugged cus doesnt seem to happen as much with other teams helos...?
The only sure-fire way to hit a target with the TV is aim for the tail, otherwise it will pass through the aircraft 80% of the time.
A few times I've had a tv missile seem to go right through a target, but on my roomate's screen (flying the chopper) it completely missed.
What's really fun is taking out a chopper pilot with the rockets on a chopper but not damaging the chopper. I've managed to do it once in a chopper duel with my roomate. Fun stuff, but really hard to replicate.

Yes, I was about to mention that. That is REALLY annoying. What I have to do now is make sure the TV guide reloads completely before switching to guns.Deadlift wrote:
The most annoying bug is if you are in a dogfight and the missiles reload is almost done... but shortly before its finished the reload starts over again.
Happend to me twice yet.
Another thing EA needs to do is change the crosshair color on TV guides, or color the Dragon Valley sky differently, but it's impossible for me to target and aim at anything while looking at the sky in that map.
lol if it was just pilot it would have probably went right through the doors,, happens all the time, vengence is right i think the tail is the only sure way to kill
aim for the tail, which is lame, but it works. other than that, you can take out the pilot with a TV headshot
Why the hell did someone negative karma me with "fuck you faggot"? Seriously... trying to discuss something with the BF2 community and all that you can contribute is that. Grow up kid.
