omg, fun to fly. Fun to kill with to.

However I recommend EA tones down the damage these explosive rounds these give off, wayyyy too powerful

please do shut the hell up .... do you know what a mess a 30mm cannon shell can make? If anything the power of Helo cannons should be turned up so they can tear into armour ... although I suppose thats what they have their missiles for. Anyway, to reiterate ... SHUT THE HELL UP! Leave the game alone ... its people like you that brought about the release of 1.21 and look at the problems that caused. One last time ... Shut up.

Ahhhh... I love when people can talk about a problem in very-very civilized way
All I see now is that if someone has a problem then everyone attacks shouting "shut up" and "Adapt moron" and such! Why is this great hate?Also it is funny to blame these people for the fault of the developer...
Anyway the Mi-28 should not be nerfed because it is balanced now:
it has a powerful cannon with big splash damage, but it is the slowest also and its hard to maneuver with it IMO.

The cannon makes up for that fact that it's handling sucks. It's not the same as the other choppers but it has its advantages and disadvantages. If you don't know anything about choppers don't post about them.

I actually dont notice a big difference in handling, but if im a pilot or a gunner i would prefer to be in the mi-28 due to that grenade launching cannon

It is the Anti-matter wah halal allah akhbar alalala wahahal cannon.  And when you say it you must sound like you have a hairball stuck in your throat trying to get it out. Get it right dammit!

It is fine as it is.  If the Cobra has a good TV missile gunner and/or stays above the Havok then the Cobra wins.  If they don't, then the Anti-matter wah halal allah akhbar alalala wahahal cannon will shred through the Super Cobra in a few seconds flat.

I love piloting and gunning for all the attack choppers in BF2, but I especially love the Anti-matter wah halal allah akhbar alalala wahahal cannon on the Mi-28 Havok and the TV missiles for the Z-10 and Super Cobra because of their forward facing view.

"Anti-matter wah halal allah akhbar alalala wahahal cannon"  is this the exact technical description for this weapon?

I think they should increase the dmg done from the AH/Z3 cannons. They don't have to be great against armor but they should make mince meat out of infantry.

Bah, they're fine as they are. If they did that than the Mig-28 would really be screwed.

whenever i'm flying in a USMC attack chopper, and i see one of those, i turn around and try to hide from it... lol... but even though it is powerful, it is really hard to control, and is as slow as the black hawk lol. so it's pretty evened out in my opinion.

The only map where Mi-28 has an advantage is Sharqi. On other maps cannon doesn't matter that much, but maneuverability.

The cannon does more damage against choppers too than the other guns.

I think that the whining is overpowered. Ea/Dice should nerf that!

some of those whining turds do not know what they are talking about.

If you take all weapons and guns and make them EXACT the same...then would that be fun? NO!!! it would fuck up the game!

now...Mi-28 is has firepower...but its a heavy piece of crap..so the AH got that as an advantage its ligt and very manouverable. same as with LAV25 vs the BTR90 the LAV25 has some nice Splash damage but the BTR90 shoots faster very handy with running targets. so there must be some differences in the game so that people can figure out how to take advantage of them.

i say that EA has to stop messing around with the guns and vehicule before they completly fucked up the game

mi-28 + mec wheeled armoured vehicle have the same cannon in real life.

my bitch is, how come a sniper rifle will penertate the heli window,
but the cannons dont do alot of damage?
mi-28 might take a few,
but the cobra is the thinnest aluminium +would be wasted by 2 or 3 rounds.
(helicopters are light +highly stressed machines)

OK, I see all your points but geez man, why swear?

Guys like you I guess that makes EA scared of brining out new patches. Patch 1.2 was great save the fact you can't jump and shoot, but I think the Mi-28 guns are still way overpowerful, especially for a noob who just jumps in and gets his helo service ribbon without any effort

You sacrifice maneuverability and a slim profile for a good cannon capable of killing infantry a bit better than the AH-1Z and Z-10 cannon. The MI-28 cannon is more noob friendly, but where the gunner position is easier, the pilot position is more difficult. The cannons on the other 2 helis can be used to the same effect as the MI-28 cannon, but takes more skill and experience.

The MI-28 sacrifices ease of piloting for ease of gunning, that's it.

That's pretty much it right there. Also it's been left out that the pilots rockets suck. They don't converge on the crosshairs like the other choppers rockets do. You can shoot off your entire 8 rounds just to watch them all go outside of the AH-1Z.

So in conclusion, it's not the same chopper as the other ones, but it's still balanced.
