You can't destroy it with MAVS, can't shoot it with a stinger, can't shoot it with a gun, can't kill its user since he can fly these from the comfort of his base, you can't hide from it either because i've seen some people more dedicated than others fly this in Metro and Locker. You can't ''git gud'' all you can do is suffer trough it.
I don't mind its existence in fact i'd rather have them in the game that's why all i'm asking for is a way to counter it. Even hackers have one(fairfight).
HI @817chPl34se ,
I feel your pain, as see often silly campers on RU side on Metro, camping in spawn despite their team has both A and B flag. and still they just camp there in spawn with UCAV non stop to fly the UCAV in through the Metro building into to kill the poor US enemies trying to get up the stairs far inside the building... Luckily this type of abuse is the exception and personally we ask such players kindly to engage in the face to face combat as intended on a CQC map and not camp in spawn 24/7 with their toys when their own team has the two flags still ahead.
However, when out in the open then the UCAV can actually be taken down. If you are good, then you can shoot it down. And the 100% sure counter measure to the UCAV is the engineer's AA mine. Place the AA along the UCAV's travel path or near the frequent targeted end point, and the AA will counter when a UCAV comes within range. Yes it takes some teamwork to keep the engineer equipped with new AA mines, as does everything good in Battlefield. But the engineer gets the AA mine replenished much much quicker than the long waiting time the Support needs to wait for a new UCAV.
