I disagree alex, your job is too look around just as much as it is mine. I mean your the one that can see up high, i am the one that can see low on the ground.

Well it depends on the looking. Which is why I don't have a problem. I of course will be looking up, maybe down a bit. If I am watching the skies then it doesn't get in the way. But the other point is that to look around it means taking a hand off the controls, which you lose with bf2s strange free look system.

Well of course, only when you have the opertunaty to look around. When hovering or something, you just cant fly around and hold free look all the time. But look around ocationally will help.

=/ I didnt bring this up for the tactical advantage as I did for equality (all other Heli's can do it) and realism. (IRL Apaches have full view..)

Firstly, the fact that the canopy is slightly out of kilter is a very minor point. Have you ANY idea how much work goes into making a new model that works in-game? Clearly not if you're asking for the canopy to be pushed back slightly.
Secondly, yes there's an issue that can be raised here about apache pilot field of view. Making comments like "are you pissed off at me yet, Devs?" isn't the right way to raise them.
