Anyone else think the Merryweather airstrike sucks?

[Hypertion]

i love the helicopter pick-up

 

you can fire a MG from the side while controlling where the pilot hovers.

 

and depending on the location you can usually rapell down to the ground instead of jumping lmao

THROW FLARE INTO GROUPSOFCOPS OR ENEMIES.....BOOOOOOOM

FRIDAY NITE LITES

Will the flare stay on top of a moving tank if you're lucky enough to get it there?

 

I haven't tried, but I should think so yeah. I doubt the jets will respond to the change though - probably just keep bombing the place the flare landed. Worth testing!

 

 

So, I tried this idea out on a train and the flare just wants to fall off, unfortunately.

 

 

 

In that video the flare seems to go out when I dropped it but in a previous attempt it was lit up for like 15 minutes.

Yeah, but the bombs drop where the flare first lands. So if the tank moves, the airstrike misses. However, the tank does gain pretty red smoke coming from its roof for a little bit.

Used it once and it was dumb as hell.

GG to my money.

I only use it on missions, Trying to use it on other players is a complete waste of money.

I'm probably only going to use it for the "Enjoy your stay" achievement.
