Some nice shots there. I've always wondered how people can be so good with soloing.
When I try to do it I have to turn the chopper side-on aiming left of the target because by the time I change seats and go into TV view I still have to wait a second before I can launch the missle, by which time the chopper has rotated to the right and is pointing the wrong way. It simply takes too long to go from flying to firing. Does anyone else get this?
A good example of what my game does NOT do is at the 28 secind mark of the vid in the second post. The pilot changes seats and fires immediately. I suppose it's hard to tell because some frames may have been edited out, but the chopper hasn't turned off course so... if I'd tried that shot, the missle would not have fired until a second later (even with me clicking like mad). I think I need a better PC to do those shots, but I do have a pretty decent system.
it all depends on:
1. how you angle to the chopper
2. how fast you shoot after switching
after about the 50,000th time it becomes so automatic you wont even have to think about it. when i first started, id go into an empty local server (create local) and just switch and shoot at stationary targets on the ground for a while.. it gets easy fast.. then you can move on to moving targets on the ground and then choppers and jets... you ll be as good as the time you put in and the natural reflexes/hand eye coordination you posses.
best way to learn is watch all the videos of people doing it.. you can read all the guides you want for hours and hours.. or you can learn just as much from a 10 minute video
