I thought I would share a little video (my first) that focuses more on teamwork than just showing off TV missile shots; although there are a few of those too. It was taken over about 5 rounds and caught the full gamut of kills....jets included (please note, in movie, the chopper solo-er who graciously turns sideways for me)

I've flown in choppers a bit and the game is so much more enjoyable when you have a skilled pilot with the hellfire's, it's great to watch, and telling the pilot "you take it" or working out who's taking what (see movie at hotel - I take the APC, pilot takes the tank) adds so much more value from a gaming experience than just running around killing things.

so, you want a cookie for what a chopper is already expected to do? not to be crass, but its just, isnt that how it always is?

Expected ......yes

But does it happen....Almost never

Either the pilot sits around waiting for the gunner to kill everything. Or the pilot doesn't line the gunner up. Not too often you have a chopper team.

Keep your cookie...you meant to be crass or else you wouldn't have said it.

Yeah nice video mate very rare you get a pilot and gunner that work well together that don't know each other, usually you get a gunner who's finger never comes off the trigger but never hits anything or cant use TV missiles and a pilot that thinks doing loads of elaborate loops twirls and spins it best coz it looks cool b4 crashing into the ground

Nice vid. If im pubbing with no m8s on I just solo pilot if I can, usually the pilot I get flys into the ground (which happened yesterday @ kubra) or if they are gunner they sit spraying and praying at tanks. If I do it myself I can line myself up and take the shots which is a hell of a lot easier.

Oh yeah @ sp The chopper can do what you want to do but its getting someone whos competent enough to initiate what i can do. Still he had a good chopper team so I still wouldnt call it a useless vid or w.e.

Nice to see it done rite, im sh*t but I understand how it should look, as I've been smashed enough by better pilots/gunners.

Heh, nice how 25% of your TV kills are on that one MEC chopper who's just taking off...

And the other 75% we do, I thought that was being pretty nice...you're point? You would do the same.

Tsk Tsk whoring it up on node 13 and 6 redback... I think I might be a victim on that video (though I dont see why you didn't put in all those times Ive smacked you down with an Eryx )

But serisouly nice vid, its nice to see that

a) its not just another "look how leeet I am" compendium of long range shots

and

b) Its not to the tune of some shitty death metal or whingy music

So Karma +1 from me for the music at least, as well as the greatness of the video itself

Nice, I love TV'ing but most pilots are either selfish or complete nubcakes. Either way they don't line up shots. But sometimes you come across one of those pilots who knows what he's doing and then it's pure fun.
I liked your video (+1), myself I still have some difficulties with TV'ing other choppers while in a duel where both are pulling evasive maneuvers and I've never been able to TV a jet.
