Spin me right round... - ShackTac Arma 2

[@Deock76]

I think this is the only time we have seen the FFFFFUUUUU Clock. Nice touch. He did mention that this was a PFNG mission tho, but common sense says..."Look a chopper to get us the hell out of here, get in!" Alpha saw a chopper and said, "Look at all the dust it's making. I hope my hair is ok."

[@RehlmProductions]

"I am a strong, independent black hawk."

[@The_Wildfish_]

*Dslyecxi* : "you have one BRDM south west of the air field, uh, prohibiting us from landing" *airfield* : "can you land?"

[@Mightyfish_]

I just love how tactical they are :D It makes me happy that a team can cooperate to clear objectives. Good Job ShackTac

[@rosenoel]

25:40 I love how you chuckle when the other pilot is complaining about mild tail spin.

[@FelixSargent]

"He may be dead..." "Yup.. he's dead." "Whelp, that's for the effort."

[@KoolaidMaker]

The whole section trying to retrieve and patch up the downed pilots definitely was my favourite this time. Very enjoyable video all in all; I always love to see transport helo action, especially with a pilot that knows what he's doing. Would love to see more of that.

[@DrFreenote]

Man, Dslyecxi, you're usually so level-headed and calm, it makes it damned entertaining and hilarious listening to you cuss those guys out for being completely herp-derp-tastic.

[@LannAF7]

Aww...Poor Scuba, was a good gunner as well. And I love that smug laugh you give when the other chopper pilot says he has to return to base because of the tail rotor.

[@mulza]

I seriously love the videos you and Killroy do. All the little unplanned hiccups mid mission make them interesting to watch.

[@joepatrik]

I love that. Going into a hot LZ with a shot up bird and bingo fuel, medic gets away but gunner takes a hit. Thats good stuff. Keep it coming.

[@ThraceVega]

Sir, this was an amazing piece of flying and, with a small exception towards the end, fantastic teamwork. I applaud your decision to tough it out and fly without a tail-rotor for the entire mission. That was exceedingly manly.

[@kazzsaru]

By 30 mins in Dslyecxi I nearly audibly said what I was pretty much shouting in my head "fuel state, FUEL STATE!" By 32 mins, the FUBAR situation was making me go "god I wish I were there". Would really love that kind of challenge in ARMA, and share with like-minded folk. By the end of the ffffuu timer, my head was firmly in my hands, and was nearing the desk. And by the ending you reaffirmed how awesome it all is. Dont stop the awesome, Dslyecxi

[@SicariiD]

Now this is something i like to see, someone getting properly shut down, in a informative and non imflammatory way. Hats of to you

[@ningen1980]

"I'm a strong, independent Blackhawk! I don't need to warn!" Damn near died from laughter!!!!

[@jackraynard]

Laughed so hard at your rage - you're usually so composed. Thanks for showing that, many would edit it out.

[@brettkarbon3611]

"Helos, this is Alpha 2. I think everybody's dead..." Gave me a hearty chuckle.

[@TheLegendsmith]

I came back to this to watch it again, it's one of my favourite videos, just showing how mental this can be, and well, the fuckups. it's funny, and great.

[@Ko_Kasumi]

pilot: He may be dead. Medic: Yep he dead! very blunt medic made me laugh

[@NinjaCowboy117]

After reading the description, I had a disappointing and tragic ending playing through my head and was eagerly awaiting the demise of everyone when the second chopper came into land. Then I remembered the rage that commenced just moments before. I now know how to piss off every one of my friends that like to pilot.

[@i3u11et]

that double look at 23:22 was awesome. Total immersion.

[@Mike-os3pt]

That chuckle at 25:40 xD

[@Bumblkillface]

It's scary how intense this game is, I was freaking out when alpha was just standing there

[@TheSniperEyes]

This was fun to watch. I really enjoy videos where you are the pilot! Great!!!

[@collinlingaitis8872]

First of all: thank you for your service. Second: I know a few Army and Navy Helo pilots and they explained that contour flying (extremely low flying) was something that they don't do too much of in recent operations, but it is reserved as an "evasive maneuver" or a method to avoid detection. More commonly though they follow the tactics you described as for the most part they don't have to deal with possible air threats. Since Arma has air threats the contour flying is a standard maneuver.

[@tuszekkis814]

Some nice flying there! Thanks for sharing!

[@hopstar117]

The tension is so real, that's what I live about arma, can't wait to get into some of these big missions

[@tomaturanga751]

This is the most intense video of arma 2 game play i have watch in years! Keep up the good work man!

[@iamlink32]

That was some good stuff man. Though Dslyecxi yelling was funny as heck, my favriote part was when Barman got shot up. Dslyecxi did a double take left and said "Shit". Great stuff.

[@RebelSoldier36]

This is one of the best videos of Arma gameplay I've ever seen

[@NotQuiteRambo]

I'm loving the end line there, "Remember... we have to tell their story!" :')

[@Spyderist]

the guy who talked about his engine failing gave us a really good landing there

[@shinyaron]

That part with alpha had me yelling at the screen for you man.

[@parkertheyognaut]

This is the most intense video I have ever watched. Absolutely amazing XD

[@ReverendRover]

Made me chuckle when you were saying "You think that was close? I'll show you fucking close!"

[@RbitLsi]

I absolutely love this video, Dslyecxi. Amazing piloting skills, the laugh at 25:39, awesome and certainly justified "rage" including the choice of censorship effects and the smilies ;)

[@LazureusFalcone]

If you heard his passengers said: "good thing you did a video on this", means that the video was already finished and out when this took place.

[@WaxMilson]

Funnier than Dyslecxi actually shouting was when he turned to look at Scuba and he was slouched there. Could tell his face irl was like, "well, shit."

[@willalderson7838]

That rage was beautiful.

[@HunterIsMadness]

Dslyecxi is so badass when he cusses his vocal cords play an epic electric guitar rift.

[@TheBunsofCinnamon]

Ive been watching Shack Tac vids since before ArmA 2 came out but sweet jesus I think 36:15 is one of the greatest moments ive seen of the group.

[@Moleculor]

Glad to see you went with the 16:10 ratio. My monitor might be 16:9, but I much prefer seeing all of the game.

[@samsonlacroix1094]

Dslyecxi I loved the black and white speed up instead of just cutting it out, If you'd do that more it would be amazing!

[@Itsamemario0510]

Man, he's an insanely good pilot... He started using the lack of ATRQ to turn after a while... Ended up giving his gunner a perfect shot doing it, too...

[@SpartanB34stM0d3]

5:19 "That was close", "That was close?", "Wanna see close I can show you close." lol

[@stinko444]

That was an insane amount of causalities haha

[@Jinx2media]

Why have I never watched videos of this game before, it's freakin amazing

[@ProspektMir]

"We're takin' him to the beach to do some medical procedures" - Dslyexci

[@DJpopel]

You dusting off, looking back and you door gunner is slumped...that was subtly epic if that makes any sense

[@dnn112233]

25:39 I did that exact same laugh at the same time. Not because I would be able to handle a black hawk with rotor issues but because you had been kicking ass all mission with the exact same problem.

[@oggty1]

"Yep he's dead!" lmao

[@Diwwah]

OMG, the stories that happen in this game... This is probably the most impressive wargame ever. Shame on me for only being introduced to this through Day Z.

[@ComfortsSpecter]

23:16 “Ah Fuck...... fuck”. Funniest thing I’ve seen all day

[@ValtheroPens]

I lol'd at the rage, I'd have been yelling too.

[@wonderboy2402]

24:45 "He maybe dead." "Yepppp. He's dead."

[@brandonhead13]

If fifty shades of grey is the best new thing for women....wait till the fellas get ahold of these videos. I cant stop watching. Unreal the level of play you guys show. More...MORE videos !!

[@Dbo_-mu7ti]

Power that you hold is unspeakable

[@TheBooglalorian]

R.I.P. 2 Platoon Medic. Thou shall be missed.

[@TheStormscape]

Totally with you bro, I fly transport in Arma 3 atm. "Chopper sitting on the ground right next to you guys with enemy fire zinging over my rotors, just take your time getting in...". I've also started abducting the slowpokes during infill missions and taking them with me to the next transport location. I think 10 seconds is more than a reasonable amount of time =P

[@MrKiWiCaRnAgE]

25.38 that laugh you can tell exactly what he is thinking

[@Sedraen]

"I'm a strong, independent Blackhawk!" I lost my shit.

[@Havoc13371]

i love this video and i died laughing when Dslyexi was yelling at Alpha. what really killed me when he used the Dethklok guitar senosor. great fucking video!!!!

[@176corleone]

Love the Metalocalypse reference with the bleep :P

[@sparks444]

GJ on those BRDM's, I don't think I have ever seen these miniguns on the Blackhawk being used for anything useful before.

[@Vigorous_Jazz_Hands]

"Welcome to Dslyecxi Airlines, where we don't need a functioning helicopter to do our job."

[@NightmareNinja91]

Really good video, emotional moment at 23:33

[@Th3St4lker]

Put him in his place, like a sir! Thank you for your service!

[@PureBlackWolf]

Hey Dslyecxi, one thing I'm wondering, do you fly with mouse&keyboard, or with a joystick? I never see your chopper rock and and forth lightly because you have to keep moving your mouse to keep the nose down enough for forward momentum?

[@TaggerungDeyna]

This was really, properly a good watch.

[@WinderTwist]

Don't you love that, When you try to evac people but theres that one guy your waiting for that stands still for like 3 seconds. During all that your being shot at, Like SERIOUSLY.

[@gharretje]

3 seconds? That FU timer was a bit more XD

[@JoeyGannon]

I've got a new favorite flying video, that was amazing stuff.

[@dsi24]

That perfect double take at 23:19 ;_;

[@GoodBlokesNZ]

"You want close? I'll show you close!" Awesome. :D

[@jshaneyboy]

that was his super smug giggle :)

[@acerdavidii]

You sir are a helicopter GOD! Awesome video as per usual. I guess Alpha squad's motto is "Mill about, smartly" Glad to be a subscriber, c ya next vid.

[@Marshall_Thompson]

23:00 You can see the Silhouette of the Gunner getting shot.

[@MrZombieZealot]

Marshall Thompson bless that gunner. made the ultimate sacrifice for these pFNGs

[@ComfortsSpecter]

Beautiful scene

[@imgmod]

Thank you for your service

[@BracedPoleCat]

between 5:10 and 5:20 I had the Jurassic Park theme playing in my head lol

[@HowlFilms]

Dslyecxi, what game logic/scripts/functions are running to make these missions dynamic? I'm pretty sure they aren't definitively placed units, rather dynamically spawned as to increase replay value?

[@TwoPlusTwoEqualsFive32]

Is there benefits to mouse and keyboard over joystick? My main reason was lack of trackIR which I am now getting. So whats your opinion? Should I ditch my setup?

[@Twadfire]

36:16 , the whole scene made me laugh to tears.

[@sterpify]

May i ask if you use a joy stick or are you just that good to make your flight that smooth

[@LucidDream]

Fun mission to watch...bet it was fun to play. 23:19 "Ah fuck.." Gunner down!

[@LeisureInLife]

Man, these vids, this community, fucking great. Love watching these Dslyecxi, keep up the sweet work

[@MrWheels88]

24:48 "Yuuuup, he's dead." hahahah

[@bryan-wy1fh]

i like the part when you said "are you fucking sightseeing"

[@ThunderCTA]

You did so well to make it in a blackhawk that messed up, seriously, uber Kudos to you for that But that bit with Alpha, oh god that made my day "ARE YOU F*CKING SIGHT-SEEING OR SOMETHING, GET THE F*CK IN!!!" channel classic.

[@SynDProjectFan]

Thnx for serving!

[@jamtoast7289]

"Dyslecxi Air, We don't need a fucking functioning helicopter to do our job"

[@TheGotStrobed]

love it how every one got there helicopter broke but not yours lol

[@Patriiiiick]

Haha, I think that's the hardest i've seen Dyslecxi rage before

[@code1911stainless]

great playthrough

[@TheTAC0cast]

Lets all take a moment for 2nd platoon medic. RIP.

[@h4ckf1r3]

So great i have to watch it again, wish i could get into this part of arma 2 instead of wasting my time playing dayz/wasteland

[@i3u11et]

"Helos, this is alpha 2, I think everybody's dead."

[@Flwerz_]

8:40 the "what?!" from one of the soldiers XD

[@BlargHorff]

love the metalocalypse sensor

[@Daiyuki117]

I really want to play this now, reminds me of way back on Chromehounds when I had a great group of guys that called out engagements and headings properly and could read a map =p I miss pulling off organized missions, though obviously a giant lumbering mech is a bit different from a Blackhawk haha

[@teddy268]

there is a un-offical sequal beiung made called M.A.V. out on steam greenlight now.

[@Daiyuki117]

***** Holy shit I didn't know that, this is awesome! Thanks man

[@impulse6008]

oh man chromehounds was the shit, it's too bad the servers got shut down

[@ppitm9]

Suddenly I get why old ArmA players are so nostalgic for Sahrani

[@EpicDragonification]

You just destroyed Ratkingbob, congratulations!
