There's a nice heli crash scene in Vietcong. And also ARMA2 has a lot of this stuff - except that you always die.
I know, I kept getting nervous when I'd get into choppers in that game, it just seemed like you were tempting fate.Akiada said:The Rainbow Six: Vegas games kinda both do this and subvert this. You see a couple NPC choppers in the games and they get destroyed: a civvie chopper gets it's tail rotor blasted while trying to get news footage of a gun battle between Rainbow operatives and terrorists, and in the second you take down an enemy chopper.
But the subversion? No chopper you ride in ever goes down. And you do spend quite a few mission intros riding to the location in a chopper too. The chopper comes under fire more than once and a pilot is even shot but the thing keeps in the air.
It's kinda funny.

Though it's fairly common here in Chernarus.
In MW1 on that mission after the flash-back.almostgold said:I think just a big a problem is that in COD, the first extraction point never, ever, NEVER works out.
"The LZ is too hot!"
Of course it is.

Yeah, there were a couple times when it was flying towards the team that I honestly expecting it to get shot from nowhere or something.Fidelias said:I know, I kept getting nervous when I'd get into choppers in that game, it just seemed like you were tempting fate.
Yeah, and in the first and second stalker games choppers feature as enemies. They're hard to take down in the first game (and only feature as engage-able enemies at the final stage) but you can drop them with an RPG if you're lucky (or like, lots of rifle ammo if you're persistent) and they all go down when an Emission hits and kills the pilots and passengers with uber-radiation.Stalker Call of Pripyat has at least three helicopter crashes that you're supposed to investigate.
Oh yeah, I forgot about those fights. Wait, you fight choppers in SoC? I don't remember that. Maybe I was too busy cowering in fear or something. That seems likely. I did that a lot in that game.Akiada said:Yeah, there were a couple times when it was flying towards the team that I honestly expecting it to get shot from nowhere or something.Fidelias said:I know, I kept getting nervous when I'd get into choppers in that game, it just seemed like you were tempting fate.
Rainbow pilots are just that badass that they can plot-armor their way out of the fate of normal video-game helicopters.

In Clear Sky you fight one as a boss so it's a given that that one too goes down.
Mirror's Edge get's bonus points for the helicopter crash being completely inexplicable. You kick a guy out of the side, and then suddenly it's spiralling out of control and on fire.^=ash=^ said:Mirror's Edge has a helicopter crash I believe, as does Lost Plantet 2.
