BF2S Forums Sniperrifle road kills??

yea i guess the one that said [Tiger HAP] went under chopper roadkills. about the [Killed] message, i have no idea. prob goes to the same place where the kills you get for sniping explosive barrels go.

[killed] and [Tiger HAP] are chopper roadkills. Only [M95] message counts as a sniper rifle kill. Not so sure about [killed] but most likely it's a roadkill because when you're trying to get explosives badge [killed] doesn't count as a c4 kill
EDIT: spelling lol

the worst is when you shoot down the copter kill the pilot but it lands and kills you own team mates and u get the teamkill i cant figure out where you get credit for [killed]

When you shoot at the chopper, pilot tries to maneuver and crashes. You get [killed].

So the barrett damages choppers...but does it count toward opr against your accuracy?

I don't think so. Most likely accuracy measures on infantry hits

i think i have this one figured out... if you blow up a HUMMV and there is someone next to it, you get a roadkill... so if your claymore blew up a hummv (low health before, of corse), and someone just bailed out, or it was set on fire and somone bailed out, you get a roadkill for it. i figured this out because i have several hundred roadkills in the chopper, and i know i havent run over 400 some people....

No, if it does damage to something, that counts for accuracy. That's why stupid people sit the whole round shooting at Humvees and Black Hawks to improve their acc. so they can brag about it.

I shot at Cobras and DPVs all day today and my accuracy went up 1%.

But I think it only counts as a hit when you get the hit indicator in your crosshair,so that means an enemy has to sit in it.

And today I brought a smoking DPV to explode,this time it said M95,could have been that I hit the driver with the last shot,but the thing definitely exploded.

So the M95 actually is an anti-material rifle in BF2,the damage isn't just very significant but it's there.

I was always kinda hesitant with wasting my ammo for a chopper I "don't damage" anyway,but since I've tested it on an empty server and seen the 1-2 bars disappear (I flew the chopper from the helipad,gave it one shot to a certain section and then got in the chopper to see how much damage it took.) I always shoot at choppers with the M95.
And it doesn't matter to me if they are smoking or not,I just plink away,the pilot gets irritated,1-2 bars can be the decisive amount of energy that he's gonna be missing in the next enemy encounter and there's still the chance of a lucky headshot which usually means the demise of the copilot aswell.

And that it turns out to be effective is shown in the fact that I get kill damage assists from shooting at the chopper,so I must have damaged it more than half of the energy.

Speaking of weapon roadkills, has anyone actualy killed someone by blowing up there gun? I once was in a jet co piloting with the anti tank rocket and it said I killed someone with the g36c, which is wierd since I dont have one...
