Are you still pushing this agenda? No one ever uses helicopters to spawn. The only thing they do is rape tanks in a tank game mode. You literally used a heli with a low BR to dodge the rocket SPAA meta and even then the only thing you have done was prove that your "But helicopters can cap" argument for alowing them to spawn at the start of the match is invalid. I understand that this is giving you a ton of ka-50 sales but at what cost?
last vid they showed a plane cap the zone so by their logic planes should now be lower to spawn in with so you can start the game in one with all armaments. face it their reasons are like Swiss cheese (full of holes)
Wow I'm tired of his voice......
what makes you think your griping is any better?
i am sure your parents feel the same about you and your self important attitude
"Silently staring at Albatroses missiles."
Yes because it's the helicopter why you can't capture.......
Also for ground the most modern ones are: T-80UE-1, BMP-3, T-80BV, 9P149, 2s6 ''Tunguska'', Type 16, Type 90B, Type 89, Ariete PSO, Challenger 2 and that's about it although I thought there were more (all spaded ofcourse). And no not the M1A2 or the Bradley because they don't have ''modern'' modifications in the game. Indeed for helicopters the Mi-28N and AH-1Z
Honestly, I think helicopters did more bad than good for the game. Just because it's possible to implement something, does not mean that implementing will improve the game. Also, I have more chance of capping with a prop plane than a helicopter at any br. Caps with helis are possible (so no point passing it off as an achievement) but are not advised as you will render yourself an easy target to enemies and friendlies.
The only bad thing about helicopters is that there is no counter against them (for every nation except the US because aMeRiCa SuFfErS) which can counter something like the ATGM of a huey or Wasp helicopter. Yes you have spaa but the missiles have around 4km range and most of the spaa only 3km range. And ofcourse with the apache in 1.97 I think gaijin needs to think about things twice now because allied teams (america and britain) will become OP at top tier
Saw part 2 on George Beurling. If anyone else who saw 'part 2' thinks that's it, wrong!!! Be ready for 'part 3'...when Malta's survival hangs in the balance, & Beurling's luck runs out!!! (By the way, that German 'Albatros' gunboat has got missile launchers aboard...maybe one day, they'll be active!)
Screwball was truly a remarkable pilot. Maybe the best deflection shooter ever.
He was poorly treated by his Canadian superior officers and the Canadian Government. He deserved better. He is buried in Israel. A war hero, overlooked by most Canadians.
In the narration, you refer to him as the "mad Canadian", a number of times. He wasn't mad. He didn't suffer fools, had difficulty dealing with authority, especially his stuffy Canadian superior officers. You need to get your facts right and not try to sensationalize in a most inappropriate manner.
You know the AA fuze are trash on the Albatros, when they need to have a slow and lumbering 4 engine bomber as a target AND have to score a direct hit to down it, for making this video. Not even joking here, the Albatros is abysmally bad against planes, anything with front guns will out trade you in a 1vs1.
I forgot to add, it is 270k RP to unlock, just let that sink in. Any tier 1 boat with 20mm guns is more effective at shooting down planes.
PLEASE bring back the Katyusha. There's no reason to have only had it available once for a couple days. I need it ):
