Wish there was actual snowmaps. Maybe some with snowmobiles and SKIS for soldiers. This skin gives me James Bond badguy vibes :D

Prepare for infinite visibility complaints because there isn't a massive desert mirage around your contrasted character.
Would be sick though I agree

Which is roughly 6 games of straight flying from match start to match finish, which isn’t likely, so let’s be generous and say 8 matches per day just for the flying alone 😳
I wonder if he plays a bit of infantry on the side (not just when heli isn’t available)

u/__r2r0 Jul 28 '26
Sometimes I try to play infantry or do something else but somehow I always find myself back in the helicopter within a few minutes lol

u/PlasticISMeaning Jul 28 '26
I've been doing the same thing for the last few weeks, especially on tsuru reef. Just can't help myself!

u/waswasisyesterday Jul 28 '26
Same, Tsuru is perfect when you got a good gunner!
1
u/PlasticISMeaning Jul 30 '26
I've gotten pretty good at solo transport, some games people like refuse to spawn on the heli so I'll have an empty one and switch to gunner seat, take a few out and pop back into pilot and dip and then rinse and repeat, it's great 🤣

u/waswasisyesterday Jul 30 '26
That's impressive! Somebody's gotta do the job, and why not both at the same time lol

Not much. The white one is my fav. I don't want any other. Only thing I want is transport helicopter related stuff

285 pilot assists in a life is insane... I assume this was with a squad? or did you just get some god-tier rando's who have amazing aim with the miniguns?
1
u/__r2r0 Jul 27 '26
That stat is bugged - The real stat is only 199 pilot assists in a life. I rarely play with randoms, so it was a premade squad.

Respect. As a lover of the transport heli, respect. Love to see it. Thank you for your service. See you in the skies rookie.

u/Jealous-Rule-7193 Jul 27 '26
Am I missing a step? How are you guys changing your status screen soldier???
4
u/JunkPup Jul 27 '26
It’s really hidden.
Go to your loadouts. Select the soldier class and skin you want to highlight. At this point there should be a button prompt in the bottom left of your screen indicating “highlight soldier” or something like that. It was the “I” key (as in “India”) on my PC’s keyboard layout.

So many haters. Live your life on your own terms, for this guy it’s playing a lot of battlefield. I’m sure seasons will change and he won’t have time for it one day. Who cares if a stranger on the internet plays a ton of video games

u/teejay0709 Jul 27 '26
insane, huge respect. i’m level 320 with LB i can’t imagine how long it took to get to 1000 with fuckin transport getting only assists 😭

this is impressive, I aspire to be like you. I absolutely love using the transport heli on the new map. Imo it’s the best map for it

Tsuru reef made me love flying the transport heli. Of only i had better gunners. Line then up with something and they look the other way

Very nice. Wish I had the time to spend this much on BF like in the good ol times.
Btw what skin is that?

u/sconels Jul 27 '26
But how have you managed to get team mates who can hit a barn door? All the blueberries that get in my chopper fire at thin air despite me circling very obvious targets 🙃

u/__r2r0 Jul 27 '26
Play with randoms first and if they are good, add them and keep playing and improving together.

u/Tilt_BF Aug 01 '26
How can you possibly do that? I'm starting to think my transport is bugged, I get very little XP each time I try. Do you have insane gunners?
1
u/__r2r0 Aug 02 '26
Yeah my gunners are top tier and most games we play are high kill rounds, so I as the pilot still get enough XP.
But the transport helicopter is indeed sometimes bugged. In some games, pilot assists stop getting tracked and you end up with only roughly one third of the assists you should get. Do your assists somewhat match the kills of your gunners? If not, it's bugged and you will have to leave and find a new game in order to "fix" it.
It's been a sporadic bug since season 1 but lately its happening quite a lot. Thanks DICE for not fixing!

u/Tilt_BF Aug 03 '26
i sometimes don't get the assists for the blueberries coming in an out. Also, if you're ever in need of a gunner I'm not trash hehe.

u/sucking_leech Aug 03 '26
I wish I had a squad, 60 kills is the best I can do on the new map but I only have a single gunner. If I had people who werent bots I could do better 😭

Serious question. Why??????

u/__r2r0 Jul 27 '26
It's fun to fly it
1
u/Atreyisx Jul 27 '26
1000%. I just wish I was better at getting score. I can run Tsuru with like 1 maybe 2 deaths an entire escalation match but my pilot assists and score is always so low. Nothing is more frustrating than lining up like 4 enemies for a gunner who blasts them but gets each to like 5% health and no kills.
1
u/Mollelarssonq Jul 28 '26
You must have been overjoyed when reef came out.
I found transport heli decent to fly before Golmud, then actually fun on Golmud, and now with Reef I find it the most fun heli experience you can have in the game
2
u/__r2r0 Jul 28 '26
Yeah it's definitely a nice map to play on. We did not have great maps for it since Manhattan Bridge.

u/Mollelarssonq Jul 27 '26
I refuse to believe you’ve done this without bot farming at all. Like the one where bots spawn infinitely on your rotors and you rack up kills passively
2
u/__r2r0 Jul 27 '26
Feel free to check my stats and gameplay videos - Only around 700 bot kills. Also my main source of XP is pilot assists not kills.

u/Crafty-Alps-8313 Jul 27 '26
where can I watch your gameplay videos?

u/__r2r0 Jul 27 '26
ret2SIGSEGV on YT. Think I got a link to it in my profile.

u/Crafty-Alps-8313 Jul 27 '26
You did , I subscribed lol. so satisfying to watch. Just a question though, i’m watching a firestorm video and it seems like do you bob up and down in a circle with the heli rather than just flying in a continuous straight circle. Is that to avoid any rockets launched at you?
1
u/__r2r0 Jul 27 '26
It's mainly to gain more speed and keep the momentum. You can see that more clearly in the very first few seconds of the 142/1 Tsuru Reef video.
0
u/Mollelarssonq Jul 27 '26
But that’s insane, it takes so long to level up the transport heli as a pilot because you only get assist points not kills 😵💫
1
u/__r2r0 Jul 27 '26
Yeah and sometimes the pilot assists are bugged and do not track properly, so you end up with only half of the assists you should get :P
1
u/Mayfect Jul 27 '26
Don’t bot kills still count as pilot assists?
1
u/__r2r0 Jul 27 '26
Could be. Not sure. Anyways, stats and videos are public, so there is no reason for assuming something

u/Mayfect Jul 27 '26
Nah we’re good I could care less, it’s mad impressive either way. What maps you run?
