i don't remember most of the mission names from yesterday unfortunately.
Spy VS Spy
I'm really starting to like this missionbecause its some nice training for flying the littlebird which I definitely still need (I'm always glad when i don't end up killing a squad or the whole team xD) . last Thursday following a SUV that was going 30 KPH was totally different from what I do when I try to train in the Editor (mostly flying at high speed and trying to land at a set point as fast as I can without killing myself ) and I thought I had screwed up when I bumped into the ground once while on the radio (A shame TFAR won't let me configure Joystick keys). This weeks flight ended quite abruptly when the maschine gun at the camp found the chopper, unfortunately I didn't dare to loose too much speed after the motor was out so some rock killed us when we were sliding over the ground. still was a fun try and I guess I will try some low altitude autorotation landing next xD.
Lost squad Chernarus RHS
Those MI8 are f*ing loud. I wasn't able to make out more than half of what the ground team told me (Valhalian on the other hand came through clearly, I guess he was talking a little louder because he was flying a MI8 aswell)and was not entirely sure of their position until I saw tracers on the ground (will need to tweak my audio setting(elsewise what was the name of that addon that would mute the game sounds while radio is active ? ^^)) after the ground team marked its position (Please use coloured smoke next time, I'm still not sure wheather I landed on some wounded enemy or next to ground teams position) I landed since I did not have door gunners (I had two AI on board on other seats which I couldn't order around) landing went without problems (well besides all those tracers coming towards my armored cockpit) but due to the noise I wasn't even able to make out weather or not someone answered my questions about how many people were missing. unfortunately most of the lost squad was wiped out when my chopper was blown up by a RPG.
I definitely liked the MI8 even though I would have preferred an armed one^^.
(din't remember mission name, we were to defend an airfield in chernarus)
well....we were 2 guys and 3 AI in slots labeled chopper pilot but we had one chopper.
we went to our holding position waiting for orders to perform CAS. when the first such order came we gained height and speed, heard a report of a blackhawk in the area and then where killed by the blackhawks doorgunners without even having spotted it ^^.
(the VR defense mission)
totally different from the one we played last thursday, much more intense, much more pressure (our medics probably had most of it) and some times I thought we might be overrun when I noticed that two guys on the same side of the tower were down .
(the Airport raid)
quite a nice mission, even though we lost about half our men. only bad thing was those enemys that didn't chease to respawn at the western ammo dump and I think at times our leaders were quite pissed of our incompetence ^^(I had some problems with my FaceTrack when I lost track of things and ran towards those choppers, I'm still surprised I wasn't shot again xD). It was the first mission I think in which I was hit 6 times with every bullet being stopped by my vest without really wounding me
