Last I checked the teaser site for the next installment of Call of Duty, there wasn't a whole lot going on. We know the game's big reveal is set for May 1, though that kind of check-back-later information isn't exactly engaging. Give me solid details!
Curiously, one of the classified windows on the site now links to a video by FPSRussia in which he controls a flying death machine that sure would be fun to pilot in a videogame. "In the next ten, maybe fifteen years, sh*t is going to get very real." Is this a hint at the setting for the new Call of Duty? I hope so.
The word "Tacitus" makes an appearance, both on the website and FPSRussia's shirt; take a look at the video's tags as well. Activision working with a popular YouTube user to promote a mainstream franchise certainly sounds about right. Further hints will presumably be shown in the coming days as additional boxes become declassified. Consider me slightly more intrigued than before.
Feels weird to say, but I'm intrigued at what CoDs up too. Haven't felt that way since 2 (no I'm not a cod basher, but the series is what it is: a fun arcadey shooter with great mechanics and bs excuses for story). I loved the Rcxd in blops, but this looks pretty sweet too. My main question: Does it asplode!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the whole appeal of FPS Russia that he's a guy who shoots guns and blows stuff up? Is one five minute promotion video for Activision really going to ruin what he has going?
I don't expect this kind of weapon to exist anytime soon simply because the battery tech would not be sufficient to let such a thing fly for more than a few minutes.
I don't care for CoD, but I do watch FPSRussia, I saw this last night and was like, "eh, that was a fun video, but I prefer when you just shoot and talk about guns".
I got an AR Drone quadracopter as a competition prize, no machine gun, but it was pretty cool - not too cool to sell it though. - Still seeing that thing removes any doubt that this one is real.
I would hardly call this a "promotional piece" it's not like he's sold out - i figure Activision just gave him that thing to do a video on, he got to do a video on a cool toy, they got to link to his video.
I'm preferring Hickok45 these days for my gun vids on youtube, and Brandon401401 because his Mrs is super hot and watching her shoot a shotgun gives me a boner.
The problem with a small helicopter w/ a mounted gun is accuracy and power. To be accurate the platforms (the helo) needs to be stable until the shot leaves the barrel. But to be stable you need to attenuate the power so the whole thing doesn't kick backwards while firing and use very low powered shots. The solution if it has to be a gun would be a muzzle break to shift some of the power in the opposite direction. But then the problem is sound. A small low speed helicopter firing will make a ton of noise and be take down quickly.
The real solution would be to fire a very low velocity shot that is explosive. A small missile would be even best, it would leave the craft at very low velocity and then use rocket assistance to hit the target with an explosive. For a micro copter you would need a missile weighing 4 to 6 once because you would want a few shots. The good news (well not good) is that a four-once missile could probably blow someone’s head off with a small shaped charge.
Can't wait! No second chance! I love these games, mostly the guns. I just got a M4 like in the game http://www.airsplat.com/airsoft-video-games.htm and they have a bunch of other guns from different games.
