Re: EMKV-90 TOR need to focus on ground vehicle not heli…

As soon as you spawn in you have a small invulnerability window so use that to immediately fly high but kind of wiggle around doing so - Even if they were to elevate their turret using rocks/cliffs, they're a lot more shaky after the last few patches (at least on PS5 - makes it annoying to line up your shot).
The trick is to just not be overly predictable with your flight path - Once you get close, the TOR has a very slow turn radius so you should be relatively safe.

    @TTZ_Dipsy exactly, that's when I know tank is there. But difference is, Stealth helo drops bombs (on infantry ohk) and sounds like Nightfury from How to train dragons vs instant kapish across the map. How should I know tankb exists when I'm busy with another helo or vehicle overall.

    @Man_iLoveFishing by the time you hear the sound you are already more or less dead...
    we can argue about it all day if you like, the issues currently up for debate in this thread have been going on since the beta.
    -Helis are farming away at infantry with impunity --> DICE nerfs helis
    -Infantry is farming helis --> DICE introduces counter like stealth choppers
    - new vehicle counters AA hard --> DICE increases range of AA to cover most of the entire map
    .... this trend goes on and on and on, so wait for a patch and DICE will jank the balance back your way

    @X-Sunslayer-X They also introduced Liss to counter Stealth, even tho it was 2 hit kill and Stealth had op 30mm. But now Liss is ohk and 30m has been nerfed well.

    But it really doesn't matter what kills. It's from how far and how fast and what warnings.

    All what I'm asking is some kind of warning. For example like lock warning (when tank is charging and aiming at me) <---- that shouldn't be much to ask. Also comparing vehicles vs infantry bothers me a lot tbh. I've mentioned many times, vehicles have much longer respawn time.

    @Man_iLoveFishing they are also a lot more powerful then the average infantry player that is a minute point...
    if you are a pure vehicle player then that is your choice to sit and wait for said timer noone is forcing you. giving infantry a TV missle was a terrible idea, and i as a mainly infantry player have said that as well (i do play groundvehicles on occasion though i find them in this game insufferably boring and frustrating to play)
    the issue remains balance is always swinging one way. either a vehicle is broken or a counter to said vehicle...

    @X-Sunslayer-X But if you play only infantry is also your choice to play, if farmer bothers you, you take helo and kill him. If skill is not high enough, you train it like we all did?

    @Man_iLoveFishing 
    i don't know if you do it on porpuse but please stop ignoring the point i made several posts ago...
    the entire balance of 2042 is dogdodo. Infantry has been on the recieving end as well as vehicles... i am not disputing that the rail gun tank is more effective as AA then the actual AA at times...

    is Liz and her TV missle BS ? yes especially for ground vehicles because they can not doge in a three dimensonal plain like choppers can.

    is the stealth chopper BS? yes especially if the gunner and pilot are on coms since the EMP will make any vehicle a sitting duck for a bombing run...

    Rao hacking and stinger spam is just as much BS as the nightbirds hydra rockets spamming...
    has stuff been over-nerfed yes of course it has its DICE almost everything they have done these past 5 years is knee-* reactions to any issue brought up by the community.

    can DICE fix the issues? yes, but again it will most likely be a knee * reaction...

    @X-Sunslayer-XThe only fact is what makes helos op is flying. It flies, newsflash. Doesn't matter what potatoes you run on it. There are plenty infantry that can paint and can actually triangle you. Idk why you get upset. Use chat to communicate, if you get ignored, means people don't care and enjoy being farmed.

    For you it's okay to get killed across the map. All what im asking is a small add on, a warning...

    Edit: Liss only requires skill to use. 80% of Liss users don't even take cover (shoot from inside). But also ive been shot down by good Liss users. Also with Stealth it's pretty hard to dodge it Liss. All depends from where you shoot and how what route you smash in.

    Dude, you can't hear the stealth helo until it is too late.

    Lis might work on pc but on console even with sensitivity cranked up that missile doesnt turn well enough to hit anything that isnt hovering

    Cause one person isn't  supposed to get to hog vehicles all the time

    @Psubond Hogging vehicle is not the case here now. One soldier should not have equality against vehicles at distance.

    Nor any vehicle should one shot you across the map, talking about from one main to another main with little skill required. There's that, I'd understand if someone would own me with normal tank like that, I would take hat off and respect that.

    It's funny, taking vehicles down requires skill or teamwork. And no, this is not teamwork when one squad is at the same spawn so they can lock multiple rockets at the same time.

    And yes, many doesn't even bother taking down even when vehicle flared and is damaged. Almost every second match has that problem. When I ask even for help, doesn't care. 🤔🤷‍♂️
