Heli's and their ammo

[ImCptCrunch 17]

This more of a question than a suggestion but, helis currently, get re-armed on server restart. I was wanting to ask if something will be done in standalone for this, perhaps carrying M249 belts, and placing them in the heli will allow you to reload. and if this hasn't been talking about, then this is a suggestion.

(yes I used the search function couldn't find anything)

I think if a heli has a M249 box in the hold, gunners should be able to reload.

It's amazing how fast you can empty those two cannons when you're pissing about.

There are ammo boxes for vehicles...but i hope they remove armed vehicles and add unarmed ones instead.

The helis have m240s not m249s.

Yes sorry, i meant M240 box mags.

They already reload. Just leave the 240 box in the heli inventory. When you run out in the gun... it reloads. : P

As for running out fast... its a 100 round mag... people just don't know how to use fire control. lol

Invaluable addition, :rolleyes:

I'm usually relegated to pilot (since I can fly the thing) so gunner seats ain't my area of expertise, but I would still rather have a 5.56 if it meant having 200 rounds per box instead of 100 7.62s then you wouldn't have to reload so often anywayz.

Seems to me, you have to be an admin if you want to find a chopper more than once in a blue moon anyway, for all I know they could have mounted a trebuchet since the last patch.

@Seddrik - if you jump on a side seat an don't instantly start blasting at everything, you're too boring to be a gunner.

Fire control is for pussies. :P
