We Call It “Helicopter Sniping”

With my achievements list getting maxed out in Call of Duty, and my stubborn refusal to buy Halo: ODST to try out the Reach beta, I’m still considering jumping ship to Bad Company 2 to get my shoot-em-up multiplayer fix.
This video shows a rare art form in the game that I’m dubbing “Helicopter sniping.” Unlike Modern Warfare, it actually takes a great deal of skill to guide a rocket into a helicopter. Supposedly there’s a new patch that makes this easier in the game, but this video was taken before that.
You don’t need to watch the whole thing, as you’ll probably get the idea from half of it, but it’s pretty cool to watch. I also like how people bail out of the helicopter in parachutes as it’s spiraling down.

I cant see the video, but I’m assuming it’s a rocket launcher of some sort following a helicopter to try & knock it down? I’m only posting cause my roommate loves this game so I started playing it for a bit and got really excited when I saw the sentry rocket launcher.
Instead of using it to shoot down planes I started spotting out where people were rushing from & shooting it like the javelin from MW2. I’d shoot it as high as it could go & then point the sight down to where the enemy was & it’s start raining rockets all over them.
If I wasnt playing Fallout3 & if I hadnt just preordered Red Dead Redemption I’d definitely get Bad Company 2. It’s a fun game to play, plus you get the thrills of Call of Duty 3 where you could strap C-4 to an ATV & have a buddy suicide bomb into a base.
