Conducting standard gunship support over enemy positions deep in their territory. One of our birds go down. It crashed over on its side. All occupants are either dead or severely injured. Upon further investigation my gunner noticed what seemed to be three alive people. They’re returning fire as the enemy is literally rushing the position. Myself the pilot makes the call, maintain a holding pattern shooting the tree lines and any jeeps attempting to rush the position. We pass once and we land as close as possible to the crash. Three dudes pop up sprinting and screaming friendly towards the chopper. They get in, we take a a hit but manage to take off and coast back to friendly Airspace. Two of the three were fatally wounded. It felt like a movie

Very cool! I love how the American pushed alongside the btr at the beginning of the clip. Very effective. The ability for reforger gameplay to feel like a war movie is exactly why I fell in love with its gameplay. I love how you added the music and the opening and closing capti9ns it really helped highlight that aspect of the game XD Also, I'd like to add that the m60 can penatrate the BTRs armor. It can do so especially well with the armor penetrating rounds added in the most recent update.

@thennicke Many things are different in Reforger because of how things are different in the game engine, I think that is why it took them so long to get weapon resting and bipods into the game (instead of just copying it from arma3). What I noticed so far is that I only saw bullets penetrate thin shack wooden walls, never any house walls. Only AT launchers I have seen penetrate house walls.

After reading your comment I tested ingame, it appears the basic M60 ammo can penetrate certain areas of the BTR at close range. And the Armor-piercing can penetrate at farther distances however the BTR still has areas that are thick enough to stop even armor-piercing rounds. In the video I was confused because the incoming fire did not sound like .50 and still it penetrated.
