Rant 1 Is it just me or do you just fucking hate helicopters when they shoot you through the roof of a building? Its realistic BUT COME ON WALL HAX!

Rant 2 Is it just me or when someone goes into last stand they just dont seem to fucking die? But when im in last stand i fail... miserably.

Rant 1: That's not so bad, cause usually the buildings have open roofs. It's worse when it happens across the map

Rant 2: Other way round for me. Everyone else using Last Stand dies fast, but I almost never get finished off

I haven't had any bad experiences with cheap chopper kills, although I rarely get killed by one.

Last Stand is nice...I never seem to die without at least getting an assist, and typically do get kills. I credit my KDR ratio to it.

Spoiler (highlight to read):
Especially when the game ends in Last Stand and you don't get credit for the death, or leaving the game in last stand

I think they have next-gen heat vision or some shit.

Helis aren't supposed to see snipers hidden in tall grass, or, as you said, people behind 5 inch thick walls

Watch the killcam, I do it everytime a chopper wtf's me and it always turns out that I was pretty visible to it.

Just chalk it up to thermal imaging. Just thank IW that they didn't make the Chopper cannon what it should be (high explosive 20+mm rounds)

tru dat

And also, if the enemy has a UAV up, i think the Chopper actively seeks targets.

Killing chopper while in last stand?

Priceless.

not high explosives, just plain normal rounds...

they tend to explode when they hit whatever they're aimed at though

What I hate most about helicopters is that whenever I summon one, they kill one, maybe two, enemies at most. Yet when someone else calls for one, that thing goes on a rampage and nails everyone. It's very frustrating, and I guess I have very bad luck because there's no skill involved with a heli.

is there any trick to calling in the heli to a particular location? i see some people rack up the kills with it, while other times there are only 2 or 3 before it's shot down.

Helos arent exactly a problem if your team has headsets/voip.

Just scream at everyone to fire at it with whatever youve got, and it goes down quicker than it came.

it depends on the teams and whether or not the noobs are busy running around inside or outside

the best map for a chopper is probably vacancy if you call in a chopper when the enemies are outside though

oh yeah... forgot

wetwork is good too, but with a halfway decent team it'll get shot down pretty fast

Yep, it only takes a few guys firing at it with pretty much anything, or one guy with a LMG, and it goes down quick as.

In last stand literally anything kills 'em. It's the easiest way to get the direct impact flashbang/nade/stun kill.

I don't mind choppers,,, but i ****ing hate the fact that people are invunerable when falling down into their last stand - stance... nomatter how many bullets you empty into them whilst they are falling they cant die, yet they have all the time they need to kill you with their deagle......

Your thoughts, insights, and musings on this matter intrigue me

On hardcore its even worse, you empty half a clip into them and they drop down instead of dying, then they hit you once with the pistol and you die straight away, fuckers..

last stand sucks even mpre when sniping. you shoot someone trough the head. dont get the headshotkill.
for the choppers. if you lay down in the open as sniper and you dont shoot. the chopper will not spot you, unless there is an uav out.
