Whenever i get into a chopper it lags terribly. But when i play normal bf2, i can fly the chopper pretty well. Well what is wrong with this?

I have this problem when flying an attack chopper.. when flying an BH.. or the other choppers it works fine with me..

I don't get why everyone is complaining about the new choppers, they're brilliant IMO... They're way more agile than the old ones and their missiles are effective against infantry! LOVE THEM! tho the HIND feels a bit too heavy sometimes, it's no problem, stayed in the air without dying and had 33 kills one round with the HIND and then you get to hear you're a chopper whore... shoot me down then if you're annoyed with my skillzzz sadly I don't like being a gunner much anymore cos no one else knows how to fly them o_O

I am dubious about the missiles in the new ones, they seem to delay before firing.. it looks cool, but it makes it harder to hit. I love flying on night levels, like Leviathan, the NV looks awesome in the air.

The reason you might notice lag etc in the new helos more is because they are MUCH more powerful. Not more agile per se, I think the Cobra can spin faster than the Apache, but check out your max speeds in each! The extra power in the Apache / Hind gives you the feeling of agility because you can accelerate out of the way faster.

I have to aim directly at the guy if i wanna kill him. Whenever i spray beside him, he wont die at all. And, i find it difficult to fly a chopper in Sf cause of the lag

I have the same lag problem with most the SF maps, and its only worse in a chopper. And I'm running a pretty decent machine with P4 2ghz, 1G ram, and a 256m ATI Radeon 9800XT

I think my lag has subdised and its better now? Anyone has the lag gone too?
