actually add cockpit glass reducing bullet dmg by 2x to the game like you said you would

[azure dagger]

#dev-wip message was never implemented as far as we can tell lol

"• Bullets will cause 2x less damage when shot through vehicle windows."

[restive cedar]

I support this. Please correctly implement the change anounced months ago into the game.

[crystal hull]

Its in the game but its very unreliable

[restive cedar]

It does not. I am certain of this.

[crystal hull]

we did tests with soviet, it does sometimes, sometimes it doesn't

[restive cedar]

I have hundreds of hours flying the blackhawk from before the update and even more hundreds after - there is no diffrence between the two. It's the same and the update was never implemented.

[crystal hull]

me too I have hours in flying, but we at least tested it

[leaden osprey]

Why do people vote against? It's just a bug that needs to be fixed. This is so stupid

I dare to think that this does not work not only with helicopters, but in general with all vehicles that have windows.

[trail maple]

Just make it only work for the first shot since the glass would shatter

Then if it gets healed to full the glass comes back

[leaden osprey]

Let's remove all the glass completely then. There's no point in protecting against just one shot

Glass should have some HP. Skip half the damage to the player and take half of it until it breaks and then skip 100% of the damage

[waxen sluice]

I support this idea

Giving a permanent resistance combined with the ability of having a medic healing you in the back would just make pilots unkillable

[leaden osprey]

Glass must also be repaired at the base.

[sleek sable]

the main problem is its hard enough to deal with helicopters with there being no proper anti air gadget in game so the only reliable way to deal with them is to try and shoot the pilot and this would make it harder

cough cough
transport helicopter with 2 guys sitting in it constantly repairing it

[waxen sluice]

That's a separate issue, which is absolutely busted and has to be dealt with

[sleek sable]

well until its dealt with i think the glass should stay as is rn

[leaden osprey]

APC counters helicopters completely. And if we are talking about a transport helicopter, then it is absolutely countered by LB.

[restive cedar]

Giving a permanent resistance combined with the ability of having a medic healing you in the back would just make pilots unkillable

Would be good, awesome even.

[leaden osprey]

And LB countered by every gun in game

[sleek sable]

most APCs are destroyed in like 5 minutes or they are ro busy sitting at spawn trying to snipe people

[restive cedar]

@half magnet Please implement the change announced here: #dev-wip message

[sleek sable]

if that was the case why is it normally that a lot of little birds can go a whole game without dying

[leaden osprey]

Just because someone doesn’t understand how to use APC against helicopters doesn’t mean that helicopters don’t need the glass buff that’s already in the game. I REMIND YOU AGAIN! NOW IN THE GAME! BUT IT DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY. We're just asking for this to be fixed.

[waxen sluice]

@orchid portal boy needs to be taught some manners

[restive cedar]

1: it's not in the game
2: it does not work

Hopefully he fixes it

[leaden osprey]

Because they play carefully. LB will respawn in about six minutes. Some maps have three. How many times do you think a pilot should die in a game?

[restive cedar]

That's not normal. It's a rarity even seeing as a single guy with an m249 can counter a littlebird for the whole game, let along snipers

[sleek sable]

and I'm saying there should be a proper anti air gadget or buildable and not rely on a vehicle that isn't even properly ment to be for that role before they fix it

[sleek sable]

I want to knpw what servers your on because i rarely ever see helicopters be delt with and most they are just ignored and I'm not only talking about the little bird I'm also talking about transport helicopters to

[leaden osprey]

Maybe we really need a gadget. But then other AA options should be nerfed

For balance

[sleek sable]

that's fine i don't think APCs should function well as anti air anyway

[restive cedar]

Oceania. ABG.
The only littlebird pilot is Splodge because I'm killed them all in the blackhawk.
By the way - keep the discussion relevent to: #dev-wip message which was not correctly implemented

[leaden osprey]

We only asking for glass fix, Nothing more

[sleek sable]

the thing is most helicopter pilots don't normally die but 2 times the whole match

and its rare to see people actually counter them with guns

[restive cedar]

Lolwtf. Keep typing and I'm just going to block you

[sleek sable]

ok?
like I'd care XD

[leaden osprey]

How many times pilot shold die?

[restive cedar]

Resist the urge to feed him. He's an idiot man, tainting the discussion away from the glass windows

[sleek sable]

I'd say more then 50 kills to 2 deaths XD

[leaden osprey]

True. Sorry

[sleek sable]

this is excluding transport helicopters they aren't getting kills

[leaden osprey]

Let's enshrine this in the constitution

[orchid portal]

You got off this time, don't ping Oki again.

[restive cedar]

Bump

[crystal hull]

Its already in game just it doesn't work sometimes

Pinging oki is just pointless

Make a bug report instead

At this point truedevil could just delete this thread because its more of a bug than a suggestion

[azure dagger]

i feel like all of us arent realising that transport helis are fucking useless anyway outside of the game start, they cant gunship well and its rare for enough people to spawn in one for an actual drop, the littlebird is a separate issue but it is easy to deal with one if you just stop and shoot at it when it starts flying near you, not to mention sniping them with an APC or tank, not every pilot is an ace the littlebird is hard to fly well, besides this is something thats actually meant to ALLREADY BE IN THE GAME but doesnt work

[azure dagger]

if there was an actual anti air gadget then it should be much harder for tanks and APCs do down a heli, they have near no problem with it right now due to the tail rotor

[sleek sable]

already said that

[leaden osprey]

APC Can be used for several purposes simultaneously. It doesn't work so you just stand in one place and wait for a helicopter to fly by. But when you notice him and he is close enough you can easily shoot him down. One shot breaks the tail rotor of a lil bird and a couple of shots are required for a transport helicopter. No one is forcing you to use APC just to shoot down helicopters, but you can do it very successfully

[crystal hull]

LB is easier to fly than BH

[azure dagger]

and?

flying it like a crackhead to avoid enemy fire while aiming and shooting back is hard

the BH is a little harder to fly because its much heavier but you dont need to do as much

[crystal hull]

after a few sessions dodging and flying to prevent getting shot becomes a second nature, to the point where you can do it while being unconscious

[restive cedar]

Try it in the Blackhawk

[crystal hull]

i do

yesterday a tank tried to shoot us, Saw the missile coming and increased the altitude

was kinda funny

[restive cedar]

This thread is about the glass window. Tanks do not do infantry damage to the helicopter

[crystal hull]

still we are on the topic of the guy saying dodging is hard as f

[restive cedar]

Dodge a stream of constant groundfire or a hitscan m200. Boris, it's time to leave the thread or start actually genuinely piloting the blackhawk

[crystal hull]

i do those things if you can't bear with me cope

[orchid portal]

Aha, I just realised, this is a duplicate thread..
