rotorwash?

Petey · 11-12-2007, 12:49 PM

well im not sure if this is possible to put in PR, but wouldnt it be more realistic if the game had it?

if you dont know what rotorwash is, its the wind thing the heli's rotor produce. so this means if u shoot some rounds out of the heli's passenger seat while the heli's in motion, the bullets direction would be affected because of the wind produced by the rotor.

well this is just a suggestion.

It doesn't affect it much.

very low drag bullets loose 20% of their velocity at 300m, when they are travelling at over 650m/s. Unless the wash is travelling SIGNIFICANTLY faster than this it just doesn't have an effect. Either way it will not be noticeable when moving and is not, from what I have seen, possible to do.

I doubt rotorwash has a very big effect on bullets?

I wish we had the visible vapour fume that the Joint Opps helis have. Sure was a wicked effect, you could almost smell the petrol.

Anyway, a lot more dust would be great, like an explosion on low settings when it lands.
