I played occasionally, but I don't intend to play again since Desert Combat will be shutting down most likely. (If you haven't heard, Battlefield 2 is basically the Gulf War + War on Terrorism + War in Iraq part Deu)
I've been worried about that actually... all the work they invested though. damn.
Yes, KILL THE CHOPPERS! I used to be able to hit any aircraft with my stinger missile, but lately I haven't been hitting anything with it. So I stick with the VSS
I LOVED DC, but then BF VN came along and I haven't played it at all. Which is my bad because DC was tha shizzle, I pwned inside a tank (anyone else taken on 2 HIND's in an M1 and lived to tell the tale??? I HAVE!) The next BF ought to be all that DC was, it's just a shame that DC will be shutting down, at one time I'd have bet that DC was going to do for BF42 what CS did for HL.

On many ocasions I have taken on Choppers in a BMP or whaever the Coalition Troop Transfer vehicle is.. many times with no damage... good piolots will hover above your LOS and rain death from above, my only manuever for that is a special technique called running away
Just kidding, I'll drive off to the side, I must pay close attention to where the chopper is and how it is moving, to determine where and when he/she will strike me, I then make sure to turn away from that area, and I would say a good 70% of the time it is sucessfull in not giving me any damage.
I ALWAYS try to get the BMP, or whatever the vehicle is called. Yesterday I was on some map I cant remember, I went around the side to the enemy base(just to piss them off) and hung out there until my ammo was gone... by that time I had almost every soldier on my ass, I had anti armor config, so when the choppers came I took them down... when the troops came I maraculously killed 2 MG's with my pistol, but 3 vs. 1 was too much I died when they managed to blow up my vehicle I was standing next too
I swear it was that single most event that gave me the top position on that particular game... they were pissed that I was camping their base, but I was a good 100m away raining death from the hillside. So much fun... becuase of me holding them down, my team managed to hold that map very well.
Dirty tactics may be frowned upon, but in real war there is no fair play... that's how I game. I hate these bastards who (I am guessing) are either invisible or hiding inside the wall or floor. Then when I KNOW for sure they are cheating, and call them out on it, I get chatter telling me that he is simply outsmarting me?!?!? WTF ARE THEY ON?! I am usually in the top 5, outsmarting me my ass!
I agree RWB. The name of the game is to annhilate your opponent, or so I thought. Camping in someone else's base shouldn't be a crime- it just means they suck...I do that all of the time. I never hide in a bug, though. That is over the top.
I find with my system that DC is quite choppy on many servers...is it more of a system hog than BF?
I also find myself playing DC on the old BF maps converted, especially the Jap maps. They seem to be more fun...maybe because you don't have far to run???
I am tempted to buy BF VN, but then I saw Joint Operations last week, and it's the same $$. Anyone have any thoughts which I should buy??

A barrel roll in a helicopter.
I wish Icould, but for the next week I'll be busy with some 3D and web work... just as fun though
