As a relative newcomer to the forum, and a capable but not dominant player, I suppose I risk being flamed for posting any sort of tactic and strategy which isn't deemed worthy by the deities here; but here goes anyway.

I've been in a few games on both City and Walls flying, where I've been on Nod and we've lost our airstrip. We were being continually strafed by helicopters and I found that if I stood in the smoke plume on the destroyed airstrip I was able to get a lot of rounds away without taking return fire. As a Sakura it doesn't take many shots through the smoke to destroy the big insects [Smile]

Sorry if I'm stating the obvious, but there have been so few tactics of any sort for so long......

Try hiding in the Strips control tower, much easier to defend yourself.

You do have more cover in the tower, but on city the helicopters are often out of your field of view, as they hide from the obelisk. Getting in the smoke let's you hit them as they go for the power plant, behind the shelter of the tall building [Smile]

A good player will look for the red sighting box around an enemy character.

Better chances with constant movement and be ready to duck into a building.
