@ATFGunr I think because its a one shot kill there should be a higher level of warning when SOFLAM locked vs regular AA lock. Thats fair to me. I really dont think there should be a lock on one shot kill for helis but if it has to be that way, give the pilots the info that it may be coming.

@SpudBug At least it’s only the Nightbird that’s one hit. Apache & Hokum are two, and the Hind takes three, maybe four. I still get eaten by Nightbirds regularly lol.
- spudbug3 years agoSeasoned Ace@ATFGunr Apache and Hokum are one shot kill with the M5 + SOFLAM as well afaik

Wrong, the bf4 soflam did not need anyone looking through it to be effective.
You made another topic about this, this is #3 now?
- spudbug3 years agoSeasoned Ace@fragnstein Youre right, the SOFLAM in bf4 was a completely different gadget that needed to be set in place and only pointed in one direction.
The soflam in 2042 is more like a super powerful PLD that allows you to use it anytime while also locking targets without maintaining line of sight or exposing yourself by using the gadget.
So I agree with you, the 2042 soflam is way overpowered!
