Re: BF 2042 is an AC130 Gunship simulator

That's a little hyperbolic, they can be aggravating at times but it's not like they're indestructible.

Just get you and some others on your team to run Angel with stingers and shoot them down.

    @Ironhead841 Thats not at all effective. They pop flares, hide and go to another objective to rain death. Hind's maneuverability also allows it to basically fly around any terrain and buildings avoiding lock-ons.

    As a long time Engineer player that NEVER ignores enemy aircraft in other BF games, I run Angel 99% of the time and I’m also running the stingers along with Avancy’s and armor piercing ammo most of the time. That’s because I have to deal with the omnipresence of Hinds and Condors that are absolutely dominating every inch of the Battle Space almost every single minute of the match. 

    It’s tiresome and absolutely ruins game play spending the vast majority of every single match dealing with these broken OP gunships. I’ve never experienced anything like it in 20 years of Battlefield.

    I dunno man it's seems to work when I am playing?

    Chases them off if nothing else, I got the FXM-33 T1-ed and I would say 90% of those were transports.

  • If air vehicles are being annoying I'll sell out with Rao hacks + SOFLAM.

    You won't be getting kills or even kill assists, but you will force them to play defensively enough to stop the farm.

  • @Ironhead841 Would it be fair to suggest that the issue is it so incredibly difficult to operate as a team in BF2042? I feel like the vehicles in the game aren't so OP so much as operating as a communicating group is so hard to do.

    This x1000.   All you need is 1 or 2 Rao's and the pilots will get so frustrated they'll go play MWII.
