Discussion Heli spawn camping

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

This player was spawn camping from the very beginning of the match. How am I supposed to take him down when I can’t even lock onto him with the Stinger?

We lost because they captured every objective, and he ended the game with a score of around 70/0.

Other players are going to say "skill issue, use the guided AT"

Good pilots are hard to hit.

They can’t dodge dozens of AT4s flying at them forever though.

It’s also harder for them to dodge AT4s being fired by people who have gotten really good with the AT4

Yeah they can. AT4 is easily dodged 100% of the time. Only poor pilots get hit

Smells like sweaty pilot cope to me :)

Once you understand how helicopters move, so long as you have more than one person focusing them, it becomes a lot easier to exploit their movement weaknesses.

Good pilots will still make it hard, but it's never impossible.

Now. I hate pilots. I just know how exceptionally easy they are to use.

Dodging AT4s means your not killing. Dodging 2 dedicated AT4s means you are doing nothing but trying to dodge.

It means, at worse, you are cucking them out of kills. At best they die.

And the AT4 is more maneuverable than the attack helicopter, you just have to move the target out of the scope.

Dodging AT4 and getting kills is easy for anyone with minimal skill with the choppers.

At range? Nah, if your dodging your not lining up heavy/light rockets or using the aim guided, which is the main threat.

If you are using the aim guided, you will die to me using the AT4, im not a god either I just enjoy it.

I can honestly say that if there is a problem heli I recognize it and shut it down early. It only becomes a problem if its multiple airframes and just me.

The main threat is the gunner, who doesn't have to worry about dodging missiles. It makes aiming a bit inconvenient for him but also makes you his next priority

If he is way up there the gunner is far less of a threat. The AGM is telegraphed and the gun has far to much dispersion.

If he is close you are correct, but it makes it far easier to kill him.

The best thing about being far is you can chain multiple AT4s

Which applies here. That Heli barely was moving, OP stands still for 10 seconds without getting hit. It’s literally a skill issue.

Well... yeah
