Its a M134 .. but in the game .. its a Star Wars Laser !!!
Are we talking about a reality mod or are we talking about tactics to use unreal gear in a average way ?

Dont understand me wrong ..as i said the modder do a great job but the AH-6 is a beast in a mission... no one want see something like that, commin ahead to his own position.

I really don't get what you guys are talking about. I've flown the LB a fair number of times, and have *never* gotten taken out with an RPG. I just have to worry about LMGs and .50 cals. In your BH and Apaches, you may get taken out a lot, but that's because of the Grail, not the RPG. I don't think the RPG needs to be nerfed at all. The SMAW's firing in the scope's second quadrant just needs to be fixed.

You shouldn't be exposing troops to enemy fire in the transport LB either. Would that happen IRL? No.

And there's no way IRL you'd see the LMG being fired from the LB.

IMHO, the attack LB is OVERpowered right now. You can't shoot the damn thing down! I rarely get it on Mutrah, as somebody always takes it first it seems. But on Qwai river and Mao valley, it's so easy to completely pwn with that thing.

Sorry for this two lines of points but thats for the comment

"And there's no way IRL you'd see the LMG being fired from the LB."

Here the video my friend: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VF2NvPMSrTg

They do it all the time, every day. These guys are some contractors from Blackwater but if you think they dont do that .. i can u also send some pictures of four man on a flying cobra or 5 on a Apache

So shootin a LMG from a LB is a minor thing.

And if you want .. i send you a video a Pilot is using his M249 PARA from a OH-58 Kiowa Warrior

I may be wrong about LMGs from LBs, but that video did nothing to convince me. Those guys were cowboys with guns, flying around being asses. Doing flying stunts in the middle of the city isn't something a military unit does. And neither is giving away the position of a friendly sniper team. So yes, if you've got vids or pics of men flying in LBs using SAWs (that aren't attached to the LB by a rope system like it was in the video you gave) to engage ground targets from the air (and not just to use once the LB inserted them), please off them up.

EDITED for spelling.

What i would like to see with the RPG,AT ect is back blast Damage because im sure if your standing behind one it could take your arm off to say the least...

It would at least burn you to shit. I guess the weapons used in game are actually MATADORs or something.

I like what the original poster mentioned about players hanging off the BH (And transport choppers in general). I think it would be best if the players were inside closed doors, although it's quite hilarious to see someone's corpse come flying down from a chopper.

I hope you know somethin about Blackwater..
Blackwater is a civil mercenarie contractor. The most of the members are ex Navy Seals, Deltas, Rangers or SAS members.
These guys know what they are doing, in different to the military cowbows of the us army, those guys get 1.000 bucks per day.
"(that aren't attached to the LB by a rope system like it was in the video you gave)"
They use the ropes to provide a lesser recoil, its a bipod.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_OauAgcimQo In this video you can see a co-pilot is usin his m249 from the OH-58 Kiowa. If you are on a battlefield .. you will use every weapon from every Vehicle.
