No as it has to be a seperate weapon you'd have to press a button to switch to the 9mm tracer weapon.

Hmm... Interesting idea now that there's a launcher which is possibly capable of controlling queues.

That would be a nice addition

How come CAS choppers are so easy to kill compared to transport choppers?

It seems like all you have to do is get two AA rockets to explode near a CAS chopper to kill it. Even if the rockets hit a distant flare and go off they seem to take a CAS chopper down due to the explosion or the vehicle bleed out thing.

Also about the bleed out thing. How come some helicopters, like the Huey, are less effected?
From my experience you can safely land, not a on repair pad, a Huey that is bleeding out if you go to max throttle, kinda like an autogyro crash, where as I haven't been able to do that in any other chopper they all explode when they hit the ground.

Basically because the Chopper Armour is really screwed up in the current release. Hopefully in v1.0 we will have it fixed up as right now, transport choppers are like flying tanks where attack choppers are somewhat close to what they should be, other than the Attack Huey which is a flying tank like the transport choppers, but with rockets...

I have read some military manuals, does it count?

tankninja1 : Remember CAS is OP when it has a spotter. So it can mostly and only attack areas close to what his friends have in front of their eyes. If you feel CAS is OP, it's just that you forgot you could flank your enemy, attack from unexpected areas and stay hidden from your enemy eyes

Just upping an interesting suggestion

This would be really cool, much like ACRE mod from Arma 2 which have radio filters.

Post by **KaB** » 2013-05-15 20:26

Yeah Im actually surprised no filter has been implemented yet, especially as we have some pro sound engineer as Anders.

Post by **rPoXoTauJIo** » 2013-05-15 21:46

Afaik, sound filters already in in-game voip. The main problem is that we can't tell mumble when we in heli\jet\tank\etc

Aww ... Alright, that makes sense then.

However you can still add the *blip* (at the end and beginning) everytime someone speaks through anything but local speech no ?

Whats the splashdamage radius for the mortar rounds?
Like for HE and PRX, and also, the decrease in damage taken away from point of impact, is that linear / exponential?
And then the range for killing infantry with one shell, anything you can say about how many metres from point of impact HE/PRX will kill?
