The minis on the blackhawk are useless.

I heard it actually gives whoever you shoot health taken from yours :( They used to be awesome killing machines that were feared by everyone.

It got to a point where I just wanted to pee out the window. Just about as effective and would at least degrade their moral.

I've seen my gunner mg a sniper in the face who took the time to aim and headshot him point blank. My gunner didnt miss and the sniper stood still :( I got out and g36'd him so I doubt he was hacking.

Hence using the chopper as a gun platform. a chopper packed full of automatic rifles, grenades, C4, anti tank rockets & Grenade launchers.

we did try coming in real real low one time so 1 of the guys could 'tag' a tank with c4... I think the tank saw us coming lol.....

A heli with the pilot as support and two gunners as medic and the crew as engineers is very deadly to tanks.

we never tried that combo out. we were always a mixed ragtag bunch of rambos just incase we had to bale out some place. I was a sniper or a medic. but it kinda defeats the idea of being able to use the heli as a gun platform....

whats a shotgun, mp7 or pistol gonna do to some one if your at 300ft?? the anti tank rockets are useful but when they run out then theres nothing else you can do but waste all your ammo trying to kill 1 guy.

Throwing AT mines out the window is deadlier than it sounds.

Not sure as it's not mentioned. But since we are dealing with a beta patch it's better to just install it from regular BF2 IMO.

It was impossible to pass a claymore unless an engineer disarmed it first. - Fixed (players can now go prone to pass the claymore)

Explain for this simpleton please. Does that mean clays suck now if they are easily spotted?

The suck if you are prone. The will still work on ladders though and around corners unless the person crawls their way through the map.

Well I've seen people crawl their way through Counter Strike, so I wouldn't be surprised to see someone go from start spawn just in time to cap the final flag and win the game whilst prone ^^

I'm talking about the players that duck before every corner, and it's not like a quick duck and round the corner, more like a duck and oooh look a bug. :D

Just need to confirm....I bought BF2 a while back just reinstalled it. It's the DVD version just about to update to the new beta patch. But did the game have 1 or 2 DVD's...cause I only have the 1 Install disc.

Sorry to bring up those horrible memories. But yeah that's the kind of memory I get for BF2: Jump prone roll shoot. I hate that move, AR's are can't hit people that do it, no chance with a pistol, only a shotgun can cure the problem :)
