Silent Eagle ALT layer feedback

German team gets a heli at the start of the round, but for some reason another trans heli spawns on the same pad about 20 minutes later. This isn't the best thing from my point of view.. 1 pad for 2 helis isn't optimal. :confused:

probably a good idea.

This layer's pretty cool, but is underplayed due to how badly the tiger performs as of 0.98, that needs fixing.

thanks, I'll inform the responsible mapper in case he hasn't seen it already.

The tiger is an awesome chopper, the best to gun for sure and good pilots like it because it's very fast and nice to fly. The landing is a bit tough but once you know how to land it it's like any other chopper.

But yeah that transpot heli that spawns later is pretty stupid, 4 choppers for 3 pads

The gun is better. Whut?

I've not ever met a single person who prefers the Tiger to the other choppers.

I gun choppers a lot, so I'm used to all of them and the tiger has the biggest field of view and a good angle up and down. The only bad thing is there's no canon sadly

Yeah there's really nothing wrong with the way the Co-pilot seat functions. I think the german tiger uses SNEB 80mm, as opposed to hydra 70mm, so it was nice big rockets, too. Landing gear problem is fixed too, and helicopter physics have been updated I think.

I know that the tiger cant do vertical dives like the apache, havoc, and Z10 can, not sure how that will change.

Also I want to add that it would be nice to bring AAS4 system to the Alt layer of Silent Eagle.
I think it can "refresh" gameplay on this layer in that case, unlike it is now, when all flags are the same (and not in best spots for flags on helicopter layer imo).

Tiger is so far the best 2-seat gunship in PR 0.981 imo. Only shame is that it is only in 1 map.

People fail to realize this because they can't get past the lift-off part. They just crash into the ground, ragequit and never fly it again.

I've had extensive experience gunning it, and its easily my least favourite platform in PR.
