+ No longer are there jets or choppers, but rather just helojets. Helojets are
a combination of a jet & chopper, with the emphasis more on a helicopter. They
are capable of hovering by holding down the reverse key (S), but can also fly
at speeds of a jet by holding down forward (W). Use the mouse to assist in
turns or for rotation. Please note that the driver only controls the general
missile. The general missile will heat seek towards air targets, but also fires
straight ahead when attacking ground targets. It takes a few missiles to
destroy armor (~7). The second seat in the helojet contains the gunner who can
fire a chaingun mounted weapon, along with a manually-guided TV missile.
Unfortunately, TV missiles are much harder to guide in 2142 as they can only be
operated by the mouse. The movement is guided real-time, meaning you don't
point-and-click as you use to do in BF2. Instead, you must move the mouse like
you want to move the missile, and the missile is extremely sensitive often
causing misses.
- Both helojets are very similar with exceptions to alteration slightly in
design.
~ General Strategies ~
======================
- Avoid using TV missiles unless you are an expert at guiding them. The
sensitivity of guiding them is not worth the effect.
- The chaingun is best used against infantry or opposing aircraft. Have your
main driver dish out most of the helojet damage by attacking ground armor or
aerial transports. The helojets are also very effective at disabling Titan
cannons underneath the large ship.
