How 2 fly a hellicopterPost Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Post Search for Posts by truckerjse Report Post to a Moderator        IP Address Go to the top of this page

I have a big problem, when I'm in a hellicopter, well of the ground, how do I fly forward and straight, not going up and down by leaning forward and releasing the leaning button?

Well it doesn't really help, I'm not going to buy a joystick either, isn't there a way that you can fly forward in a level position with any keyboard keys?

yer I am having the same problem...
All I do is hold "Numpad 9" then after a sec, release it then press "up". It looks abit funny cos the heli goes up and down all the time

That's just the way it works on the keyboard - you don't have analogue control, so you have to rely on tapping the '9' key. Once you get used to it you can keep the helicopter quite stable, but it's never going to be as nice as a joypad would be.

it's like that on the playstation as well, so i guess it's just the way the helicopter physics was set

No, you have analogue control with PS2 and don't have to tap buttons. You press it gently and heli flies smoothly in the direction required. And you feel total control.

PS: PC version should also have auto aim with standard controls (not only classic) - this just makes playing with Dual Shock 2 so much more enjoyable (eg. holdin uzi, auto aiming and running around dodging enemy bullets)
