Fun to do

Recommended Posts

IRL if your blades stop the air moving through it will keep them spinning, making it possible to crash land.

You can do the same in Flashpoint, however it is a little bit difficult to create a situation in which this effect is visible, because once you push "up", your engine will start again.

The best way to create such a situation is to insert a helicopter with very little fuel or to insert a trigger (timeout, or radio activated, whatever you prefer), which will empty your fuel tank. (Or, if you have a joystick, turn your engine off and use a joystick throttle to control the rotor torque - this way the engines will not start automatically).

Once you are without a fuel, be sure to press down - otherwise the helicopter will try to maintain altitude by increasing torque, which will stop the rotor soon. If you will press down, you will enter fast, but smooth decent and you can you the rotor energy just above the ground (release down, or even press up) to reduce a descent velocity and make a soft landing.

most of the time i use a JAM rpg to do the same trick, the good thing is that you dunno when it is happening, and is harder to get recontrol the chopper.

btw you cant restart the engine once it is out by enemy fire

Fun things to do:

-start in large plane with no fuel and try to land it (c130, c147)

-drop nukes everywhere on nogova

-jump bus with motercycler

-fly a mig21 in the back of a ant24 in air

-drive cars off building in setposed in the air

-use setvelocity and play chicken with bikes on the runways

-make stunt course with the editor upgrade on desert island (bridge sections from nogova + ramps and busses)

-start a plane @ 13,000 meters then dive towards the ground and try to pull up @ 100 m's if you don't you go through the ground and see green (this works well in fdf with the after burners accelerating into the ground)

- cat's aghan + dune buggy

yeah i think its fun to be surroundead by 10 squads with jam HD weapons with the lowest skill level and see how long time it takes for them to nail you tounge_o.gif

nogova ruins are well suited for that kind of crazy stunt biggrin_o.gif

then get a buddy to come and pick you up with the bas blackhawk and hear him shout and curse you in the headphones through teamspeak or ventrilo when the enemy AA soldiers fire AA's and makes his chopper bounce around making him go crazy crazy_o.gif had that made in one of my biggest coops a year ago and we had a blast with it.

Heard about it, i think i will try this to see how it works, with the BAS MH series helicopter sometimes damage will kill the engine or originate fuel leaks without having much damage to the helicopter, hmm engine failure would be nice in OPF2 along with a better hit detection system wink_o.gif .

Whats always fun is to get a BAS little bird, stick it in winter everon (just outside entrex-deux) then get that MI6 agent on a snowmobile. Classic james bond stuff, especially with added music. (be the MI6 agent, more fun).

one of the long forgot features of the BAS spec ops Chinook.

be one of the HKY dudes with the ULTRAm60 (or similar)

now get an AI controlled pilot to take you up over a city, then unhook yourself from the harness, open the cargo door, and RAIN hell on the city below. its fun with tanks and stuff

(Ultra weapons in HKY pack are extremely powerfull)
