What's your take/opinion on vehicle ramming?

Recommended Posts

More importantly choppers and planes. I can say I've been rammed quite a lot with at least 10 times in the past few weeks. Generally we are hovering or something after looting bodies and sites nicely stocking the chopper with ever so precious gear and someone yells "Chopper!" and something dives into us. Most of the time a mere bambi or hacker. On dayz zombieland the server I play on which is down because of the host being ddosed again... *sigh* there are added ospreys which are really cool and a tank essentially but then there is the problem. They go 400kmph and you can't out fly them :/ they WILL get you eventually and you will lose your heli or die trying.

Sometimes it doesn't go to plan.

Seriously though I don't have a problem with it, only issue I have is that the biplane was/is bulletproof so your gunners couldn't shoot it down if it was trying to ram you (I think)

You can outfly an Osprey easy, if you're a good pilot. The awkward plane/helicopter Osprey controls force the Osprey to take huge births to turn while going top speed. Most helicopters can pull their nose up, flip around, and use ArmA's weird physics to literally throw themselves in the opposite direction. The Osprey will take too much time to recover to catch up.

Really? Didn't know that but it seems like he could keep swinging around and forcing you to constantly dodge his osprey ram attacks.

If you're flying against a pilot good enough to close 800 meters, circle, do it again in the opposite direction, and fly back, then you're just shit out of luck because that's impressive.
