But he was referring only to his engineer badge. To get the engineer badge, you need to fulfill a time requirement and a kill requirement. Piloting the BH fulfills only the time requirement. There are better ways to get the engineer badge.maton wrote:
there is difference between the kill assist that the pilot gets and the ones the rest of the crew gets, if you are a pilot every "kill assist" will be DRIVER kills assist which goes to your driver score, and the rest of the crew gets kill DAMMAGE assist wich goes to your kills assist stats, so if you are going for the medal of valor better star black hawk whoring (and be the pilot) cause you'll need 5,000 driver score.Wildbill100372 wrote:

But to get back on topic, I still wonder why you (the pilot) would want to be an engineer in a Blackhawk. I understand you're going after your badge, but the only requirement you'll be fulfilling is time. You can't repair because you're flying and you're not getting any kills, just kill assists. You're better off being a medic. If you want to get your engineer badge, you're better off letting someone else (who's preferably a medic) fly, and sit in the BH as a passenger. you'll fulfill your time requirement as an engineer, you'll get kill assists just like the pilot would, you can repair the chopper and you'll get helicopter time.
also the driver ability points counts as driver score, and you get that every time a ingeneer in the BH make a repair point or the suport guy make a ammo giving point, and the medics with the heal points
what i was trying to say is that some people play as a pilot, because they want the driver score rather than the kills (as gunner),kill assits or the repair points, and also the pilot have the chance to get ability points, heal point or ammo points
as i said before many people preffer the driver kills assist rather than the dammage kills assist bacause they want to get the MEDAL OF VALOR

MY GOD THERE IS INTELLIGENT LIFE OUT THERE. Finally someone that actually read what i orginally posted thank you DocZ for getting what i said, that apparently illuded the intellingence of some individual(s) you know who you are.maton wrote:

No I wasnt if you actually read the first post I clearly stated that I needed my engineer time and i also needed driver ability points.Wildbill100372 wrote:

But, Sragoot, in your quest to obtain multiple awards (engineer and whichever ones require driver assists/team points, etc.), you've compromised the optimum set up for the BH. That's the point people are trying to make. Can you comprehend that?

Why would the engineer be piloting? That's silly..sragoot wrote:
It's just a silly little question but if your lucky enough to get your squad in the black in mashtuur, how do you allocate assignments? like for me when im piloting if i need driver ability points, it also depend what badge im working on too(Engineer 4 me):
Seats locations
F1. Engineer
F2. Soppurt
F3. Medic
F4. Engineer (throwing AT mines)
F5. Engineer (throwing AT mines)
F6. Spec Ops
Yah I love the BlackHawk in Mastuur Its a brothel for team work points if your the pilot
All's you need is Pilot (and squad leader) as medic, 2 gunners as any kit and 1 engineer reapiring in the air.
The rest people can just spawn and para out.
For you dumbasses this would be:
F1. Medic
F2. Any
F3 .Any
F4. Engineer
F5. Spawn and go.
F6. Spawn and go.
I comprehend what your saying but most of the ppl giving me flak about this subject just keeps saying im wrong with out giving a proper reason. But as for me compromising the optimum set of the BH as you say, far from it.Wildbill100372 wrote:

With good team work and communication with the ppl in the back you can play the whole round with out being shot down. Good pilots know when to bug out of a hot area( BIG SECRET) and get repaired.
Very true. But the optimum setup (this isn't to say a less-than-optimum setup won't work) is for the pilot not to be an engineer, because you can't provide any help to the BH group other than flying. At least as a medic or support, you can heal or resupply people.sragoot wrote:

1 Sniper
2 Medic
3 Support
4 Engicrue
5 Engine
6 Spec Oops
Snipers have ghile, ghile looks funny. Driver must me sniper!
Now don't call me a point whore but...
Also because then the driver is more likely to get driver ability assists because he won't be macking on his crew's duties.
Why not two medics? because then abilities would overlap, lowering the chances of DAA points.
