thank you for your feedback, i figured out the third person view, in fact its quite useful, you don't get as much motion blur while running and you have a slightly wider field of view, which is really handy, i actually tried walking my team to the other side of the heli, but i didn't mention it in my first post, the concept worked, sometimes i just rather select the retarded stray and manually put him in the heli, i didn't know about the tactical command view, again thank you so much for your feedback horrace and boxious, its been really helpful. i'll come back when i've successfully been transported

i got ARMA II off steam and i think i'm a decent novice, i'm not new to this sort of FPS, i used to play typhoon rising in a garage with like 9 other people when i was younger.... but yeah, ARMA II isn't very user friendly, sure its deep, but this also means it's very cumbersome, i've managed to reach the part in the campaign where one of my squad members has been killed and i'm to hunt a warlord in the area, i have access to helicopters and i think APC's or whatever, i'm sure you know what i'm referring to. anyway, i read about this mission in a handful of reviews before i made my purchase, getting transported around by a helicopter to scout new terrain, the idea sounded fresh and fun, although, when i ordered my team to get into the chopper, one of my squad mates decides everytime rather then just getting in the helicopter, to run into the tail propeller (i don't know the technical name please don't hurt me) and well, he just keeps running into it, until he dies, then the scroll wheel active menu thing gives me an option of transport, but i have no idea how to direct the pilot, tell him where to go, where to land, even to take off he just starts the engine and i can't do anything, its killing me, because i'm so excited about playing this title after hearing so much positive reviews, but having my teammate suicide in a retarded manner and not being able to find the menu to direct the AI pilot is killing me, so i have come to the forums to ask how is it done, i assume maybe somehow with the map? how do i talk to the taxi driver?

yeah this is a serious issue :eek: i noticed pretty quickly
