@Straatford87Another nerf to the stealth?! WE ONLY GET ONE ATTACK HELICOPTER! You can’t even learn to fly these now before you get shot out of the sky. Liz’s rockets are already too powerful. Unlimited ammo and rockets better than AA or AT combined plus being able to see damaged or hacked aircrafts. I bet on the next update you guys will just end up removing the weaponry altogether. Just because not, everyone uses aircraft or vehicles, doesn't mean you need to nerf them to the ground. What's the point of giving us a new tank if you’re just going to make it worthless after a few updates? Can we please hire new devs who understand thats its the helos and vics that differentiate BF from the many FPS games available today.

    @Precise1300 I know right. When I saw that Lis' rocket is a 1 shot kill on it I was flabbergasted. They're completely shafting air vehicles just like how it was in BFV.

    First the AA was patched so it can shoot across map and now the only Heli that can fly like a Heli without capsizing from a single control input because of how badly aircraft handle in general, is now reduced to the HP of Light Recon vehicle, actually less.

    The SOLUTION WAS TO GIVE JETS THEIR OWN CATEGORY. Not inadvertently Nerf the only decent aircraft further into the ground.

    It's just further proof in the pudding that they don't have the necessary dev team power to balance stuff properly. Like... a far more acceptable change would be to make the stealth heli fly slower in stealth mode so it's easier for Lis' rocket to hit it, not make it so Lis' rocket straight up one shots it. Lis' rocket is just gonna dominate the game now. EZ Tier 1 I guess.

    I miss BF4, at least there some maps had balanced vehicle combat.
