Rooftop machine guns turn too fast

There you go, you’ve answered your own question, it’s for balance against all aircraft.

Rooftop machine guns were modeled before helicopters were even added to the game lol

No. Your aim is to buff Helis, which is a buff they do not need.

Again. If you die to a roof MG in a Heli it is your fault and noone elses.

A Heli should never be so close to a Tank MG that the turning speed of the MG can even matter at all.

So they’re not going to change are they, they need to be affective at defending against planes.

Yes.

I disagree.

Machine guns rotate fast enough that even coming in from behind a tank is irrelevant they will swivel and immediately begin engaging you.

Yes you’re talking about ATGM loadouts, that is not the purpose of this thread and it is entirely irrelevant to the topic of discussion.

Rooftop machine guns aren’t effective against planes.

Yes loads of times.We trained on the 50.CAL(12.7mm) and GPMG as It was back then things like elevated fire training ,hitting tagetes etc.Traverse would not be an issue as much as elevation limits if anything.It’s so irrelevant as to be of no concern.

Lmao ok bro… This is defo a skill issue.

You’re shooting down F-16s with your .50cal?

In the Falklands troops on foot would collectively fire at Argentine CAS and it would be very effective.

Absolutely braindead argument

That’s what I’m saying.

And?

So your aim is to make roof MG`s pointless. A Heli can be heard from multiple kilometers away. So either you want to remove the ability to turn the MG at all (in which case you would complain that tanks rotate to fast because they could still prepare for your arrival in time) or you are really just that stupid.

No I am not.
A Heli armed with only unguided rokets should still never be so close to any tank that the turning time of the roof MG matters.

The shortest ranged heli missiles in this game are still accurate enough at well over 500m. FFARs can be used on Helis from 1km away and still do the exact same as they do from 50m away.

The purpose of this threat right now is non existant.

Every point you made was wrong. Now you show your true colours. You believe Helis need a buff. which they do not need.
You are just crying because you suck at playing Helis.

Tanks with roof 50cals aint locked at 11.7 facing f16s so your argument is braindead.

No where have I advocated for removing roof top machine guns.

You stated rooftop machine guns are effective against CAS, now you’re telling me they aren’t.

Make up your mind.

When did i say that they are used against f16s?

I’ve literally stated this from the get go I don’t understand why you’re acting like I haven’t been saying this.

Who is talking F16s you weren’t originally ? Why bring them up now?
