Do you really think that the developers will be able to introduce any air defense system into the game and not break everything? In the game, half of the hits are still not registered when shooting in automatic mode, and at the moment the developers are thinking about introducing collision damage. Collision damage in a game where a 70 ton abram can crash into a birch sapling and come to a complete stop...
With a good coordination with squad leaders, this heli could provide rockets CAS more frequently than the commander asset. It’s perfect to destroy infantry in woods and opened space or to harass the hab. And also to ambush logi trucks, when they are spotted by the combat engineer.
One thing I really dislike about squad is the damage models are ALL over the place. Infantry, fairly realistic quick death. Tanks, mixture of arcade tankiness with potential ammo rack, transport helis with magical pilot shields that can tank direct RPG shots, and now unarmored trucks that can tank a shit ton of minigun bullets. Just feels bad in that regard
transport heli being easy to shot would probably make them really bad to use. They already have a lot of challenge: piloting, not crashing, not getting viewed by enemy, especially when landing and placing a hab... No getting shot by small firearms or your crews will die... Don't know about which unarmored truck you are talking about.
If you’re talking about Logis, they won’t stop the bullets from taking out infantry in the vehicle. But I agree that it’s weird how many bullets it takes to blow the engine. In Jensen range at least, it takes 2 10 second bursts to kill the logo engines
Omg that was your dude we were playing and it felt like BF4 like someone was playing this game well! Your strikes killed my logi that I was trying to set up
Can the CAS littlebird also take 2 to 4 passengers or just the copilot? If so, I'd wonder how effective it'd be to rocket run followed by a quick land and deploy your troops while they're suppressed from the rocket barrage, then take off and light minigun CAS before disappearing again.
Im a little why only vehicles shoot at the little bird in most matches, it seems like every MG player or automatic rifle should shoot at this thing and take it down. (Edit) is it because good pilots move around to much and keep good distance?
I feel like everyone just has the "I need a dedicated AA option to attempt to try" when every 50cal is exactly what they need but refuse to use I mean hell, the littlebird windows arent bullet proof so even a 556 round can take out the pilot with a good/lucky shot Which is also why I feel like I see an absurd amount of comments like "They need to add dedicated AA to the game" when it already does have it... but I think they just want lockons.
@@division7732 lmao. I've gotten to play 2 times. but i figured if you just make a separate squad called cas and just wait he's bound to get embarrassed and leave the game😂
Using main's invulnerability to "bait" the enemy is a noob practice (main baiting). Don't do that. Respect the area equivalent to that of a FOB in MAIN. Let's play fair among all.
It’s just annoying because it’s soooooo hard to get a turn to use it. Like people fight over it and like first to claim bla bla no sharing. It’s sad, wish there was a better way of sharing use of it
It’s definitely a high risk high reward heli right now. Maybe it will get an armor buff once manpads are in the game.
I doubt it, manpads are gonna rip this thing up
@@christopherchartier3017flares might be added too
@@christopherchartier3017 not if you are moving fast.

It would be cool if friendlies used their coloured smokes to mark enemy positions for you, I’m thinking I might try that next time I get on
That's one way to do it, they could also just use the map markers
Yeaaaaah but coloured smokes would be way more cooler@@mauriciosolano9342

only grenadiers and SL tho. I mean, only SLs since they can communicate with other squads
@@Zefenaro If a grenadier marks a location, they can communicate with the SL in which the SL communicates with command

You need to fly that bad boy low level, under the trees!
the heli kill at 6:30 was epic, nice shot
The good old bubblegum to the windshield trick
Omg that was your dude we were playing and it felt like BF4 like someone was playing this game well!
Your strikes killed my logi that I was trying to set up
Complete Defeat. That’s all that u need to know.
i remember shooting at this heli with a machine gunner and i saw the pilot flew out razy
Is this Squad? How is the flight model? Can you use a collective and does it support VR?
"Hmm...this things with two miniguns and missiles ain't that bad!"
8:35 that's main camping.
@@ambroiserabier4294 main camping is allowed on the server I play!
liking for the heli snipe
for the miniguns you have to aim slightly below the black crosshair for more accuracy
when you dump like that dont rotate and face your engine towards the enemy bank off with speed towards the ground.
If your monitor got a setting to put a cross on your screen. It's way easier 😅
Dude you complained about being shot at from your main then jump multiple logis as they leave their main.
I was not complaining about the main camp, I was complaining about how the engine is very weak (2 rifle shots fully engined me)
I hope we get more attack helicopters, properly armed Mi-8's etc.
I believe they are planned, we saw a HUEY CAS heli in the most recent trailer.

1+1
better use the other heli for deployment also should use the smoke rockets after initial rocket run
2 2:04 that was sick

@@krelekari That makes sense, thanks for the response.
The end cards always block the scoreboard for me.
oh, il try and fix that
6:25 one shot heli with a rocket ? That's broken.
I tried the little bird, got instantly shot down by a honestly good rocket to the face
How were able to claim the helicopter? it gets auto locked the moment i join.
somewhat fast computer and some luck.
@@division7732 lmao. I've gotten to play 2 times. but i figured if you just make a separate squad called cas and just wait he's bound to get embarrassed and leave the game😂
I removed my like when I saw you using the heli as a kamikaze 😢
@@carlosalbertojr7892 I used the loach scout, just having a bit of fun :)
man pad needed
Do you use a HOTAS or mouse and keyboard?
mouse and keyboard
10:17 no you dont, they were just lazy making the hitbox of the loach
ay yoo
Bro your eye sight is nuts
lmao if not for your rockets and smokes your team wouldn't have been able to capture the first point
Of course it is good. Made out of paper but carries enough ammunition to destroy a whole Sqaud in 10 seconds

Why do you have command ducked to right ear? Squad Leaders reach up to their left ear to communicate through command.
You should make it the same.
