To guide the TV Guided Missile properly, don't hold down the mouse button. You see, to aim the TV Guided Missile properly you must take the crosshair out of the white 'box' and continually click on the target many times.

and who are you? some kind of pshyco??

[=CKA=SgtSteve]

If the definition of 'psycho' is, "One who corrects grammar, spelling and sentence structure, thereby lending coherency and clarity to anothers post" then yes, he is a psycho.

Or maybe an english teacher. One and the same? Perhaps.

Either way, it's part public service, part subtle flame. Enjoy!

Another basic tip to go along with this one, since you just learned it, would be that you can change your camera view so you can see under the Helo. When being in the gunner seat, be sure to always change your camera view so you can see what is under you. Nothing worse then hovering over a kill zone and the gunner not firing because they dont see the bad guys directly below. Then taking a SAW in the buttock. Also be sure to spot out enemy Heli's and tanks and AA ( if for some reason they are within site ). This helps a pilot know where things are on his HUD. These are basic things that sould have been picked up in the first 2 hours of being in a helo, but a lot of people don't do these things. As for the missle control, where ever your crosshair for the TV missle is when you hit the mouse button, that is the direction it will go in.

BTW, if anyone ever needs a great gunner, hit me up. I enjoy finding a great pilot to work with, and not one that will bail out over a flag!! You don't have to baserape to do well in a heli. :2cents:

thanks for that black_05 :)

Another obvious one that a few newer players might not know. You "DON'T" have to have the target in the box in tv missle mode.

Aslong as your at a medium range to the target you can click anywhere on the screen and the missle will zoom around to that point. Your pilot just has to be facing in the general area and you can hook the missle around to hit the target.

how do u take the crosshair out of it? pick it up and drag it then continiously cliking target? or take it out by click inany where outside the box then continiously clicking there?

[|CBW|Simon]

The crosshairs move by mouse. You move the mouse and the crosshairs follow you. Click where you want it to go after the missle has fired and the missle will move towards the clicked crosshairs.

Another well underused tip.

To change the sensitivity of the cannon, LAND VEHICLE CONTROLS is for that.

Cannon tip. For cars and infantry, aim BELOW (at the legs, wheels) the target and in FRONT. Theres some odd **** going on, like the bullet stream not going off the cannon like the cannon is situated. Kind of like with the firearms, youre shooting off your belly (maybe head point fo view?) and not the actual firearm muzzle.

OH! THANKS!
I thought you were supose to aim away from the target, weird. lol

The cannon fires two shots. 1 high and 1 low. This is most obvious when the heli hasnt taken off yet. Try firing the machine gun into the ground before take off. You'll see two sets smoke puff's. 1 very close and low and another closer to where you actual crosshairs are.

I pretty much ignore the crosshairs and just guide the dust puffs over the target itself.

wow thanks, i'm no newb but ive never taken attack helis beause I never understood how to shoot out of the gunner T.V. Watch out virtual world! This noob is ready for some hard core trial and error!! (noob at helis... Strike at Karkand FTW!)
