by order of the PR forums, all inexperienced flyers that have not practiced offline and go running for the 1337 helo will be shot




survivors will be shot again

Very nice...

A idea, if one is still considering vehicle dropping stuff, is to simple have two 'weapon' keys set to the pilot and one drops a crate and the other a vehicle. However... I imagine that the team with the Chinook could just set it on the pad and be a vehicle factory, so the idea might not be wise.

Is UK the only faction using this?

I would think that the Canadian community mod would be a good one to use it since I read that Canada is currently trying to buy some Chinooks and I assume that by the time line this game represents we will or will be close-ish to having them.

The US Marines use the CH-46 Sea Knight. Smaller than the Chinook, with some very distinct qualities:

note that the Seaknight only has one forward landing gear, as opposed to the Chinook's two.
Wikipedia - CH-46 Sea Knight

To my knowledge, a Seaknight isn't likely to be made for PR as creating a Chinook would give a helo to more than one faction, with some minor changes of course.

@billdan

The US Army also uses the Chinook, so I'd imagine it would be inlcuded for them too, if we could find an appropriate map for it.

SO what if there are two helicopters? I want realism and having multiple types of helicopters wouldn't be bad.

Sadly, *sniff*, the Sea Knight is slated to be replaced by the V-22 Osprey/Flying Coffin.

Model it yourself then, Delta. The DEV team uses their resources to the highest extent, working on things that contribute most to the game and gameplay.

I think itd be badass to see Chinooks with Apaches for Army
and Hueys with Cobras for USMC
