They suck anyway...not enough armor, *every* time I get into one flown by some n00b he flies as high as possible, and doesnt drop down when he starts to take damage. End result is every time the flying coffin blows high in the air and we all fall to our deaths Smile

I just go into a public server, buy one, get some players to buy $1000 and beacons and jump on board, fly directly over my own base and say "AFK".

I can't think of a better way to spend 700 credits.

lmfao hehe

On FanMaps servers the chinooks have 'medium tank' type armor, will take a few more ramjets to take it down Smile

Not a big change but it does make it a more usefull vehicle..

No Core Patch will have balance changes, because that locks out players with no CP.

The only thing that is possible are changed maps, that makes it available for everyone.

I think I have said this before, but why not modify the WW maps with the E3 vehicles and add stuff that should be changed to counter the balance (i.e n00bjet, trans heli, etc.)
Then name them something like C&C_BHS_Walls_Flying.mix

Without snipers they wouldn't be too bad. the problem is how easily they are hit whilst being slow on maneuver and no ability to strafe away from the fire. the ctrl + direction strafe is a joke, it doesn't help you at all.
there's also the issue that no good players buy them so whenever somebody does, it's usually a n00b who doesn't understand basic survival techniques and does the classic 'fly high in the air and get shot at' thing.
i don't think giving them weapons would help because they can only shoot from the sides and in one direction with no aiming.

Increase price 100-400 and change the armor type so that they don't get owned by a sniper. They have no weapons after all. Wouldn't it make sense for them to have better armor?

It'd make sense to carry 5 passengers instead of 3.... you know, like in every single C&C game I can think of?

You could make them $1 and they still wouldn't be worth buying LMAO.

So your the one who buys them. "giggle"

I think there was a different thread about their worthlessness. To each his own. (or get owned = in a transport)

I love watching all those guys fall from the sky after my apc or chopper gets done with it. Cool

exactly.

So surely (if someone can be arsed) the best plan would be to rework the WW maps and work them into later patch releases.
ala

_TFWxANDY_

C&C_BHS_Walls_Flying.mix

Since its automated you could probably even make a core patch containing just maps.
Then it is down to server hosts which version of the map they use - exactly as it is now.

it takes about 10 minutes to sit down with LE and re-work an original WW map so the helis are stronger etc.
(I was starting to go that way with the last map i ever made - C&C Outpost.)
The map demonstrates what can be achieved fairly easily in all aspects of the game,
and I consider it a forerunner to the much better server-side mods we see now. i wud wudnt I? Very Happy
