Cobra pilot's POV/Camera location

Post by viirusiiseli »

The pilots camera point while looking forward is quite low. Gunner's head seems to be on the same level which is a bit bad. Gunner's helmet basically blocks the HUD sight and limits visibility to whatever you're trying to shoot with hydra.

The viewpoint being a little bit higher for the pilot would help with this.

Regardless, for gameplay purposes it could be done so that it doesn't. Who cares if a tiny bit like that is realistic, only thing that impacts is gameplay.

i agree, i had the same issue, but for the unguided rockets i think you don't need to see or look for the target, you just go and dump all of your payload and RTB since you have a gunner with Hellfire Missiles...( you know attacking a FOB or Mortar base where your gunner is out of LG's and you do a gun run on some area and get out as quickly as possible)

but hey its not a bad idea to make the HUD cross hair a bit higher...

the question is : can it be changed or tweaked ?

IRL unguided rockets are fired in coop mode between the gunner and the pilot. They have a crosshair which the gunner waits for to be aligned to the target and opens fire.
