It wasn't put in because vehicles that were suppose to go on it would constantly bump into it and end up exploding. Get an infantry man and stick him on the front of an APC, he doesn't stick for too long at full throttle now does he? Imagine that with a tank being on a boat... ya...

Yeah, that's why stuff can't go in the back of a Merlin. They should have a thing with the Chinooks (if they are ever added) where instead of dropping supplies, they drop a Jeep or something! That would be pretty scary though...

why they changed the physics from BFV I don't know, but it sucks that you can't have transport boats and stuff like the Chinook hook. Oh well....I guess the best answer is that it is EA/DICE.

I can see it now as everyone flying merlins drops jeeps on tanks......Or people plant C4 on the jeep as its falling and blow it up over inf, kind of like a air bust round. Except with a car. I see that being very disasterous.

PS. I would totally try it though.

Well with the chinook, one might be able to drop a light vehicle. This could be done by triggering the light vehicle drop command from vanilla Bf2 somehow.

Dropping C4 on ppl and vehicles was the only good use for the MEC chopper. I remember back in vanilla when i only played on Mashtuur City, if i got stuck on the MEC side i would run a chopper squad with the sole purpose of dropping C4...lots of fun :P

I was thinking that you could have a heavily fortified roadblock as one of the flags. Just an idea that I'm trowing out there.
