Naming things...
Well I played my first game and was squad leading, having a good time, and it came to my attention that I didn't know what to call some of these things. In a moment of inspiration (or desperation as we were being pounded by the air assets) when the Jet Helicopter thingy or what ever it is called poped into my head. I think I told Mantis or Silver "Jump in the Jeelo (pronounced G-low) and give us some air cover..." What do you think guys? Or should I be banned from ever naming things again?

Re: Naming things...
I usually tend to call it "that chopper thing", promptly followed by, "errr, jet, or whatever the hell it is."
But I like the sound of Jeelo (which can, and will, have the alternate pronunciation of Jello, of course
)

Re: Naming things...
I say we ban him

drop ship
attack ship (although suggestion of gunship sounds better)
tank
walker
jeep
APC
AA turrent
anti tank turret

Re: Naming things...
I prefer to yell "THAT THING!" and hope someone understands what I'm talking about once I get killed by it.

Re: Naming things...
It's just easier to refer to them by their BF2 counterparts since everything is pretty much reskinned.

Dropships sounds good to me. They look like them.

I'm not bashing it, but it's obvious what objects are descended from the TOW, the AA nest, and the Blackhawk. Originally Posted by |TG| B
