BF2S Forums Heli Video

I'd recognize that url part anywhere!

AGGIES FTW!

hehe I tried watchin em in the lab computers but it didn't work there, I'm on my comp now though I'll dl and watch.

Edit: well it was alright I gotta say that that was some serious TV missile/piloting skill on the cobra's part, but it did get a bit old seein the same thing happen over and over that the cobra tv'd the Z-10.  Good way to end it though, with them blowing each other up hehe.

yea it was a good concept at first then i realized the repetitiveness.  i tried to put it to the music its tough to make something like this very eyecatching, any other ideas for a video would be appreciated

That was a waste of 3 minutes. I'm guessing, due to the absolute lack of aircraft and ground vehicles, that these fights were "staged" so to speak (as in, you were in an empty or near empty server). Only once does either of the pilots, and I use that term lightly, actually use the rocket pods to shoot at each other, and the rest of the video is the cobra blowing the z-10 away from 400 yards (which doesnt really mean anything anyway, because for all we know those shots were the lucky ones, and the bad shots were cut out). Dont get me wrong, some of those tv missile shots were very nice.

A real helicopter combat video would be better, where you're up against aircraft, ground vehicles, every yahoo with an Sraw and every stinger position on the map. Thats where the real challenge is.

And I didnt really like the music. But hey, to each his own.

in response to skruples... this is probably a realm most are unfamiliar with.  there is nothing fabricated about this except the intro w/ the jet.   There are a few people in bf2 that heli duel... this means yes they are in an empty server, they both say go and they try to take the other pilot out.  That is also why there is no other interference.  And this is also why they never use rockets because its rare you even get into that range.  This video was made against some skilled solo heli people, so no they were not luck.  It is 10 times easier hitting a target that isnt dodging.  Hehe the music.. does take getting used to.  But this is not staged.  and yes, he did get taken down some (although he won all the duels)  but this is more of the highlights out of about 5 duels.  I think i just appreciate heli dueling more than most as to why its not so boring to me, but i can see how it could be ;p.  If i find a pub that records demos, i may think about making a video of that.  Even tho it is much easier to pub than to heli duel.
