Galaxy Barrel Roll

[Tsunami]

am I the only one who noticed the galaxy do a barrel roll in the video @1:50

PlanetSide 2 Trailer -- Epic First Person Shooter! Get Your Beta On! - YouTube

[Tatwi]

I am surprised he didn't clegg it up.

[Hamma]

It's probably possible but I can tell you from first hand experience it's extremely unlikely it will fall from the sky like a rock ;)

[ChipMHazard]

And promptly crash into the nearest cactus:D

Did you mean extremely likely??

[Lumberchuk]

Nah I think he just forgot a comma :P

Although already done it! ;)

[BlueSkies]

galaxy inverted loop, make it so

[fvdham]

immelmann turn!

/ last exile

[Mythoclast]

Fox! You have an NC trooper on you. Press Z or R twice to do a barrel roll!

[Envenom]

Clegg will show us the light.

Im changing my screen name to Tex Johnson and flying a Galaxy from now on.


we WILL Barrel Roll that mofo!

[DREGS]

Looking forward to the Galaxy air-show with stunt pilots and formation flights!

[Gugabalog]

Thats an interesting idea.

I could also see outfits running formation style maneuveur training for their pilots.

[JADO]

In the video another galaxy hits the left wing forcing it to do a barrel roll.

[Broadside]

I tried rolling a lib at community day. It didn't go so well.

[Tvayda]

Psh.... barrel roll, do a full clover leaf with that monster and then I'll be impressed.

[SideOfBeef]

Um... that Galaxy was missing a wing...

[SteinB]

I tried rolling a lib at community day. It didn't go so well.

I tried NOT rolling a lib at community day. That didn't go so well either.

[Whalenator]

1. It's an aileron roll
2. It was slow
3. The pilots were dead

[IHateMMOs]

Maaaaan, this ain't Ace Combat: Assault Horizon. There's actual physics in this game.

[DayOne]

falling out of the sky =/= barrel roll.

[Gugabalog]

I would be interested in seeing barrel rolls at high altitudes. Ofc you should lose massive altitude when doing a barrel roll but that just adds to it as an evasive tactic.

[Marinealver]

With armor so light you can shoot through the cargo hold and kill the pilot it better do something but be a death trap.

After seeing that video I would say nerf LA. I mean he got like sevral dozen kills before he got kille way OP.

Im pretty sure a good pilot can make the thing roll. ;)

:lol:

Yea.. if you go crazy with the gal it will plummet from the sky.

[Rodel]

Pfft... what I want to see is as many gals as possible having a simultaneous mid air collision. Triple points if done while doing a barrel role. :groovy:

[CyclesMcHurtz]

:lol:

*ahem* unless you haz mad skillz ... the galaxy doing aerobatics? Yeah, that's probably me :)

Right before you stall the beast and crash into the ground? :D

[Tvayda]

Depending on the ceiling in game, and the available upgrades to speed and maneuverability, even with "real physics" it should be possible, you just need enough altitude. And technically you wouldn't be able to do a pure aileron roll with a Gal, because of its design being meant to be stable. You would have to do a baileron roll (a mix between an aileron roll and a barrel roll, not exactly either of them but a combo).

[That one noob]

While barrel rolls are cool and all, I'll be more impressed if someone performs Pugachev's Cobra in a Galaxy, while being intercepted.

[RageMasterUK]

Was gonna post "Vid?", then go proactive on my ass.

Nice maneuver... I'd be impressed if a Gal did that too =D

Shit...I would be happy if any of the aircraft can pull off that maneuver. Incredible pitch control FTW! Maybe the scythe will be able to do it.

It's been an old dream of mine to pull that off in a game. Got the mental image from an old black and white war film where it was used to drop speed. Thanks for putting a name to it.

In the interest of more information, take a gander:

I'm going to assume that was sarcasm and not that you're illiterate and couldn't read the "NOT ACTUAL GAMEPLAY" in the bottom right.

But yeah, a glaxy roll seems doable at a high enough altitude.
