A known issue, hopefully fixed in the next release. Of the 3 11-kill streaks each has its strengths and weaknesses. The heli is less powerful than the ac130 but better in dense urban environments since it flies over the map not around it. Also the minigun doesnt suffer from the travel time the 25/40/105 projectiles do. The mininuke is a one use weapon on a fixed area but quite destructive and while a building will protect you from the blast the radiation will get you. So it all depends. Awards

It was on the previous mod (before Chicago) and on the Blue Chubbs house map. The second I used the heli, I got kicked for the tag issue. Same thing on farthouse on Chicago server before the rotation was updated. i think it's probably the same thing Llama said, the map/heli not working together. Flushy

I'd rather have the heli since the chance of killing people is much higher since you dont have to pick the place it attacks. --- i've noticed on several maps that the pavlow flies really low, sometimes through buildings, making it difficult for you to see, and in return, makes it much much easier to be shot down...but it all depends on the map construction and the height of things.

I agree its kinda slow. The escort has been renamed Overwatch. That is basically what it does. Its targeting is better now and acts a little more autonomusly, relying less on what the player does. If the player dies it stays at that location until he respawns. The mininuke blast and radiation effects improved. Fly height of Pavelow should be the same as the stock airstrike but I will confirm this. Awards

Yes it is much better, many thanks. Awards

But if that is not a problem, say you are in a group of rushers, then the enemy knows you are there somewhere anyways pushing them. So Overwatch could be a good companion to have with you as you advance. The current version does follow the player too closely however. Changes make it so it patrols the area around the player instead and doesnt hover around too much. As for attacking, if an enemy fires on it then the heli considers him the biggest threat and will be the primary target. http://beta.xfire.com/videos/557325 Awards
