state of the art
helis: apache (NOD) and orca (GDI)
Who is better? Take a look here:
- Apaches can kill infantry better than Orcas.
- Orcas suck killing infantry.
- Orcas can kill tanks better than Apaches.
- Apaches can kill Harvesters and buildings better than Orcas.
- Orcas fire their total loaded ammunition faster than Apaches.
- Orcas can kill helis in the air.
- Apaches cannot shoot at flying targets.
- Orcas have a shorter reload-delay than Apaches.
Helis don't shoot at moving targets. You can use force-fire to shoot in front of the moving target. Use always the group-option for helis. It's the only way to control them in the air.
