Passenger seat in the Hawk

Why can't nobody sit in the passenger seat in the blackhawk, or the pisstank helicopter? This needs to be fixed, that one person left behind at the base will not be left behind. Good suggestion?

What i don't know is why they sit on the edge of the chopper with no seatbelts on instead of sitting in the back ON THE SEATS.

Damned stupid EA....

if youre sitting down with 4 other men on a bench, it would be stupid to shoot. i dont want to get hit with your hot shell casings, *******.

shooting from a bh is pretty pointless anwyasy, youre not going to hit anything enough to do damage

The seats face inward...you would be shooting within inches of the heads of the other people on board. Add the fact that its a helicopter and it moves, and you would be shooting the heads of the other people on board.

Unless your not on the mini gun.

haha nice one.. even in the german bundeswehr ( and they freak out about security ) we shoot lying next to each other..

and the guy on the right will get hit by the shell casings, i never had any problem with it, just a little bit disturbing if you are aiming

it looks like Dice did all of their military research for the seating arrangements of a black hawk from the cover of Black Hawk Down

Speaking of the soldiers sitting on the "bench" of the Blackhawk... The Littlebird is even more weird because the soldiers are sitting on the skids with no seatbelt or anything... Surely someone would fall off without any support holding them...

That's how SOF insert from a littlebird...
they sit on benches on the sides with no restraints.

I believe there are some basic restraints on the Littlebird benches, like a belt or something. They're basic enough that you can unhook them before landing so it doesn't get in the way when disembarking.

What's more interesting is that some Littebirds actually have hooks that allow for fastrope insertions right off the benches.
