1) Because it's new.
2) Because it has that door.
3) Because it's named after a wizard.
4) er... that's it.

And yeah it lags, but that will change.

It's easy to handle, has a good view out of the cockpit and doesn't fly like some kind of bullet or hippo ( BH/Mi8 ).

It doesn't lag for me either, it's a beautiful machine.

The Merlin is the First Vehicle i saw on PR, the first time i'd ever played it.

It was on Operation Ghost train, I was running towards the Heli pad and Saw the Tree's Shake, the sounds of the Rotor Blades coming closer, and it landed perfectly with the Doors open, just as everyone Loaded up into it !

At that moment i thought - " That Was F*ckin Awesome "

Thats why i like the Merlin, It set the Tone for the Rest of PR - Which for me has been fantastic.

Also it Flies Great, and the Model has been very well designed too. Very well Polished :)

Neo ;)

Well, I like it for the same reason I like the Saxon jeep thing. It's freaking ugly. And it's huge.

If only the DEV team could get around to coding it so you could stand in a moving vehical without dieing.They had that in the sand box mod were you could do that! I guess the draw back would be that the whole team would pile in one and the guy flying the chopper would get a load of tk's if it was hit! and blew up!

It's a PR original. That's probably part of it.

The Saxon should be removed and replaced with Landrover Snatches and just beef them up a bit in the game stats or w/e.
