This guy made a vid and talked about it. I want to share

"OK after flying the AH-1Z for a few hours today I have come to the conclusion many players
DO NOT know how to guide the missile - I wont carry on talking about it instead I made a
short video which is simple enuff for most new players to understand !

This was encoded with DivX - if you dont have the codec here is a link:
http://www.divx.com/divx/play/download/

Uncheck the box and you dont need to put an email address just be aware there
is a GOOGLE BAR that will be installed if you dont uncheck the box during
the DivX install.

Here is the video:

My time in a chopper is almost non existant prior to 1.2, but since then I have been having time to fool with the chopper since the whores have gone on.

If I have a good pilot, mid-long range shots are not any problem. Short range I find it hard to steer it quickly enough to hit the target every time even with a decent pilot. Is there some trick I am missing or are the 'near point blank' shots just that much harder? My line of thinking is normally to fire then click past (outwards from center of screen) the target so the center will actually line up with the target.

hahaha, thats funny.  Usually if I can fly, I just try to VoIP the other person and explain it to them.  I find a lot of people have an idea of how it works, but havent had the cooperation of the pilot to help them learn how to aim it.

After all half the battle is getting the pilot to give them a decent shot!

I try to teach when I can.  Helps when the student has Voip or some form of vocal communication. (try typing a lesson while trying to hover for a clean shot) 

I was taught by a patient pilot, which really helps.  If anyone wants help learning, I offer to help.  I'm not elite, but I can give some decent tips and helping hints. (start by reading the guides in the forums) Just PM me, and let me know what I can do. 

Yeah, it's kind of a cheesy "pay it forward" thing, but someone once helped me, and I really appreciated it.

Yeah I've figured out how the missles work, I just don't get enough practise with a moving chopper and moving targets to hit anything.  As such, I generally stay out of choppers unless there's no gunner around.  I will get out of the chopper if the pilot asks, because hell, you're not going to live that long up there with the new AA missles.

SEE!!!!
Original Post has already paid dividends.

Yes TV missiles CAN be steered. I must point out that they are for killing vehicules, not troops. Although if close to the carrier and the US is still not holding flags on the ground, then a TV missile shot to the attack chopper spawn will yield spectacular results and maybe, though doubtful, teach them a lesson about camping for the chopper. If not, did it again!!!

The chin gun is for troops.

PLEASE do not mix these up.

yeah you'll need some time to get that  K : D ratio up.  If I were able to spend more time in the helicopters I'd do better but I just plain don't care.I have more fun shooting down the chopper whores then being in a chopper.  I prefer to ground pound because I like using my rifle to kill you.  I'm not trying to be an ass, but at least back up the talk a bit please.

so?  gee I haven't gotten more than 100 points.  OH NOES!  I still have a higher SPM than you and a better K : D ratio in every class.  It seems you can't kill stuff if you're not in your precious jet or helicopter.  Boo you.  I may not have gotten any 100+ point rounds, but I get more points than you.  let me know when you can ground pound worth a damn and I'll shut up.  Until then keep flying your dumb chopper and keep making mom jokes like the 13 year old you probably are.

I can usually guide them pretty well.. but since the new patch, I can't guide it at all. The missle goes ub3r fast and doesn't seem to move unless I have to move it a large amount..
