  1. The Bronco would be a great add-on. Use it for CAS (rockets, .50 cals)... Forward Air Control (smoke rockets, laser designation) Rescue and SpecOps (can carry three soldiers in the back "trunk" and can land/takeoff just about anywhere)... ...and it was used alot in the early eighties. Anyone working on one?

    What to fix in the next patch

    I've not been playing this great game for very long so far, so I can't complain about too much... still learning much of it. But since you asked... Aircraft: The Helicopters seem to lack any kind of mass.... there is no feeling of momentum or inertia. They shoot into the air at the slightest touch of collective, they change direction on a dime. They also don't seem to sideslip very well... add lateral cyclic, and you are leaning almost 45 degrees to the side before you really start to move. One thing that ALL heli sims seem to get wrong... the fuselage tilts way too much at speed. The fuselage should hang much like a pendulum under the main rotor, it is the rotor disc that tilts to cause direction change and speed, not the entire aircraft. Maybe mass is an overall vehicle problem... that would explain why tanks bounce about when shot at with rifles. Still, it's a lot of fun. One of my favorite things to do is just fly around in an OH-58. The visuals of flying just over the treetops, with the truly amazing forests in this game, are just superb... and this is coming from a real-life helicopter pilot.

    A few different questions..

    Doh! Hit the wrong button I guess. Wobble, I have the X36 also... let me know if you need any drivers, etc.

    Hiya Wobble,

    A few different questions..

    Hiya Wobble, (I assume you're the same Wobble that used to play AH... <S> mate) Is the oversensitive throttle you're referring to the Collective (up & down) controls in the helicopters? If so, I'd love to know a fix for this also. If 75% is a steady hover, then 76% is screaming upwards, and 74% is falling like a brick. Surprisingly unrealistic in a game that gets so many things right. I'm pretty new to this game still... there's so much to learn and do, but I'm liking it all so far... except the helicopter collective. Anyone? Dux.
