Helicopter gunner´s fire button ?

[K.B.Strandberg]

I searched the forum for this question, couldn´t findy anything about it, I am sorry if it has been asked already.
In the apache helicopter, I can´t find the gunner´s fire button for the minigun. I tried clicking "f" to switch firemode, but that wasn´t it.

[lt.miller]

its just the primary fire. The default is the left mouse button.

[K.B.Strandberg]

Really ? We are talking the fighter helicopters not the transportation ones.

[Drevor]

Uhm .. are you piloting the chopper and trying to use the main gun instead ur rockets? doesnt work that way! thats why they invented the 2nd seat and the "jump in" voice command ;)

[K.B.Strandberg]

No sir, it´s the gunner´s fire button, as said in the topic title. In the Apache not the Black hawk.

[Drevor]

well .. why dont you have a look at ur settings and figure it out? Its the same as your pilots fire button. primary: gun, secondary: tv guided missile

oh and btw: its an AH-1W Super Cobra Attack Helicopter .. not an Apache ;)

[K.B.Strandberg]

Yes, but when I say Apache, everyone knows what I am talking about.

Checking those buttons was the first thing I did. I don´t hear any gun going off when I press my primary attack and I do not see any rounds flying.
I thought that key might be "unmapped", invisible like the ALT key, anyway, I will check it again when I get home.

if your piloting the "apache" heli, you only get rockets, no gun, if you have a gunner, they have a machine gun of sorts and a TV guided missle. primary fire for both the pilot and gunner are left click be default and for the tv guided missle (gunner position only) is to right click to switch to it then left click to fire.

Yeah but your wrong and that bothers people....

1 and 64 are not the same.

Are you actually in the gunners spot? You don't see rounds flying, you just hear them.

coolhand: omfg :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
hey didn't I play a game with you yesterday, and you tk'd me cause I had the red-name glitch?

[K.B.Strandberg]

Heh, doesn´t really matter how much you think I understand.

I don´t like the helicopters, I think they are over-powered, but it annoys me I haven´t found the button for the minigun. You are saying it is the primary fire-button, thanks, I will check it out.

/edit

Thanks for the help by the way ! Almost forgot with the lamer coming in asking for attention ´

[hollowpoint367]

You are saying it is the primary fire-button, thanks, I will check it out.


Nonono, the actual button for firing the minigun is a macro, alt+f4.

To get the secret cheat menu, you go to your windows folder. Drag a box around it, hold shift and press delete. Ignore the fake warning box, they just want to trick you so you don't get the hax. Click yes and be on your merry way.

[K.B.Strandberg]

What, you are only supposed to ask questions that does not have an answer ?
Why are you being an idiot again I forgot ?
Wait, doesn´t matter. John doe with his copy pasted material , welcome to the internet, why am I replying

[Drevor]

yeah .... "why did I reply in the first place?" ...that what i just asked myself too

You are asked where the fricken fire button is. that like asking "D00d where is my mouse?!?!!!oneoneone" I mean how did you manage to get into the chopper inthe first place? Did you guess that E might stand for Enter. Then you had to switch to the gunners seat. Again how did you do it? Did you just try all keys until you got in there? Or did you - OMG GOD FORBID - looked it up in your settings?

[K.B.Strandberg]

Well I am sorry I didn´t give you any credit for naming the helicopter, I see now that matters a lot to you.
Unfortuntely, if I commend you for it now, it will seem degrading.
Nevertheless, Drevor, it is with great respect and admiration I see you´ve somehow managed to obtain the name of helicopter in a computer game. Few stand out with such inspiration, Drevor, you are one of a kind. We can only aspire to be such as you, a young hope, a hero. Drevor, I salute you.
Feel better now ?

ANYWAY, I asked a legit question. You felt like poking me instead of just answering, so I gave you your money´s worth

In my world the 3 of you should get a temp-ban for inciting to flames and trying to dictate the debate.

Dude look at what you're typing. It's ****ing garbage. You can't even get the name right of the helicopter. As for asking about the primary fire...

*Holds up mouse*
DERRRRR!!!!!!!

[Drevor]

Holy s***... what are you smoking? There is exactly one line in my posts statin that it is not an apache. A FRICKEN SIDENOTE! What exactly made you think that I am talking about the choppers name in my other posts. All I said was:
open your eyes! think! search! think again! dont flame ppl for something they didnt even say.

[K.B.Strandberg]

You are emotional. I am explaining why.

I never asked about the primary fire

Looks like you did pal.

oh! now look at this .. I already told you that the gun is the Cobra Gunner's primary fire. Well .. if you had read that instead of my sidenot stating that its not an Apache you would have saved us some time .. dont you think?

ok ... im trying to type as slow as possible .. just to ensure that you will keep up:

Cobra pilot (first seat):
primary fire: rockets
secondary fire: (oh my!) rockets

Cobra gunner (second seat):
primary fire: gun
secondary fire: tv guided rocket

- there is no way for the pilot or the gunner to use the others weapons
- there is no way or need to switch weapons
- it is the very same keys for primary and secondary fire for both seats


... you got that? or do I need to draw some images for you? or maybe a instruction video "The Cobra and You!" ... :rolleyes:

give up Strandberg, we have you surrounded!

[K.B.Strandberg]

I presented the case already.
I asked a question
You tried to mock me
I backfired in your face, and now Laurel and Hardy is crying

you don´t get to decide which questions are releveant, sorry.

I don´t know how long you are going to cry about my helicopter comment, but from the looks of it, we are in for a long one.
Well, sorry military-wannabe, your google degree means absolutely **** to me.
I didn´t read your last post at all, because frankly incoherent nonsense is of no interest to me. But hey, feel free to write another essay on how you are not being emotional at all. I will leave you to it

[Got3n™]

hey back on topic here, did you find the mouse buttons ok. i mean im sure you use them cause well its default so unless you changed it, its the left mouse click to fire rockets(pilot) left click for machine gun (gunner) and right click to the switch to tv guided missles(gunner) END OF STORY.

[DoTDot]

Why post this at Tips and Tricks? Post it at general section or something. Drevor try to help you and give you a answer to your question. You should say thank you. Move this thread or something this thread make Tips&Tricks section look stupid.

ROFLMAO good man

[glasseye]

this thread confused the hell out of me.
did you figure out how to shoot or not? did you remap it?

maybe you really are in an apache and thats why its not working, afaik native americans havent been fitted w/ a nose mounted chaingun for at least 20years.

I bet he is still playing on Battlefield Vietnam tut :D :laugh:

Hey isn't StrandBerg German? In english Strand=Beach, Berg=Mountain as in IceBerg=ice mountain...

SandMountain nice name :|:

[K.B.Strandberg]

He made a half constructive reply and added a stealthy insult. That does not qualify as help in my book.
I already said thanks to Got3n™, who actually just answered the question.
I agree this thread should be somewhere else, maybe the spam section after all the great community rolemodels came in and copy pasted what they call humor.

ANYWAY, thanks for the help. It worked fine this time around, both with the sound effect and rounds flying from the helicopter.

/edit,

lol, please look at your own translation one more time smartass

[Sir. SashDaMan]

... and don't talk down to a Higher rank than you Soldier :salute: ok PRIVATE get that...Report to GameWizards office at once! :mad: lol I love being a high-ish rank. :evil:

Yes this should go in the spam now or should be closed my a Moderator/Administrator tut

[K.B.Strandberg]

Rank ? buwhaha

Yeah, you are all king of the hill.

" In english Strand=Beach, Berg=Mountain

=

SandMountain nice name "

Yes, you are razorblade sharp.

[MazXFreddy]

While I agree that some of the replies were a bit over the top in this thread...can you honestly ask a question like "How do I fire my Gun?" and not expect to get some smack over it?

[K.B.Strandberg]

Well, like it said in my posts;

I searched the forum..
... I can´t find the gunner´s fire button for the minigun. I tried clicking "f" to switch firemode, but that wasn´t it... I thought that key might be "unmapped", invisible like the ALT key, anyway, I will check it again when I get home...

What you should be able to read from that is several things

a) this guy already read the forum
b) he understands the concept of the game, both passenger positions, firemodes and key bindings
c) as he knows the ALT key is not listed under infantry , yet used, chances are he checked that menu already

But that´s completely besides the point, it does not matter how valid you think the question is.
The point in question is, people who try to leech of other´s thunder (lol) is the all singing, all dancing, anuses of the universe.
lol, nah seriously, these people want to promote themselves by degrading others. I am just calling them out so other youngsters don´t get any bright ideas.
One guy wants acknowledgment for knowing the name of a helicopter, the other for a forum rank (yes, rofl). I am not complying so they feel insecure.
You know how they are at that age.

All of you seriously need to grow up.

There is a difference between involuntary and voluntary childish behaviour

Look Out Internet Argument!

*Ducks for cover then realizes that nothing is really going on so proceedes to walk around whistling and thinking about reading a book about English Sailboats*

[K.B.Strandberg]

Oh, you seriously meant it as a joke ?
In that case let me be the first to congratulate you on a terrific sense of humor.
Correcting grammar´errors or mis-spellings on an internet board is right up there with David Hasselhof and Chuck Norris on the vocals on the theme song from Texas ranger.

[H2Yo]

Did Hoff also sing the Walker theme? AWESOME!!! I always have a chuckle when that song comes on. Gee I love Captain Moustache, best Name EVER!

[glasseye]

its been awhile since i saw a person whine so much after asking a stupid question. next be sure to argue over what the definition of 'question' is.

in the eyes of the ranger. the unsupecting strange, had better no the truth of wrong from right.
CAUSE THE EEEEEEEEEEEEYYES OF THE RANGER ARE UPOOOOOON YOOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
ANY WRONG YOU DO HE'S GONNA SEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

WHEN YOU'RE IN TEXAS LOOK BEHIND YOOOOOOOOOOOOU
cause thats where the rangers, gonna be.

Nonono, the actual button for firing the minigun is a macro, alt+f4.

To get the secret cheat menu, you go to your windows folder. Drag a box around it, hold shift and press delete. Ignore the fake warning box, they just want to trick you so you don't get the hax. Click yes and be on your merry way.

LMFAO

Saved for future flameage.

This has to be one of the most noobish questions I've seen in gaming history. How can you not know how to fire? lmfao. Rediculous.

(Yes, I enjoy laughing at noobs)

And it's a Cobra, not an Apache. When will people learn?

[SuperOtter]

I think it should be pointed out for everybody who wants to stay on topic in this thread, that in some versions of the attack helicopter (the American and possibly one of the other ones) you have to hold down the fire button for approx ~1 sec before the gun starts to fire. It's (I believe) a gatling gun and needs to start rotating before it fires so thats why it has to be held down. This confused me early on too and I'm surprised that this far into the thread nobody has mentioned it.

Don't mind this guy, his question was obvious and hes acting like hes more mature than all of us.. lol. I'm surprised he still couldn't figure out after two people told him. Oh well, thats the internet for you :)

If no one told this guy what the primary fire button was, and you said this, more immaturity would arrise!

[Pvt.Caboose]

alright if you can't read he clearly answered your question and let you know it is a cobra instead of an apache(how someone can mix these up is far beyond me, but hey **** happens right)but instead of taking his help you jump back down his throat for no reason what so ever...

you have clearly shown us what you are about and how ignorant you are... you my friend are nothing but a self-centered egotistical douche bag.
