I'm not feeling the whole patch, there are many changes unasked for. It's bad enough I can't find a match of Redcted.

Well, people using it with wildcat, nothing wrong with that, but it becomes untouchable. With bird you have literally 0 chances cause of buffs of turret speed. :/

To be fair the APS is not just being used to protect camping vehicles on a hilltop. People have been plonking it down right next to tanks in the middle of combat on Flashlight, Kaleidoscope, Reclaimed, Renewal etc..
- Hudson15312 years agoSeasoned Ace@Man_iLoveFishing Yer have to disagree..
I played 28 conquest on the kaleidoscope map last night in the AA dropped the APS, didnt take long for both the heli/jet pilot to take out the aps with guns and left me a sitting duck.
When they work as a team you are pretty much screwed.- ATFGunr2 years agoLegend@Hudson1531 That’s good enough anymore, everyone wants an easy button. The whole spirit of Battlefield is team work to accomplish a common goal. COD was for the lone wolfs in the garish costumes, BF was for groups and friends. By abandoning that principle, you get 2042.

@UP_HawxxeyeThe only champs crying about this change are the vehicle clowns that expect to camp at the edges of maps and be untouched for eternity.
This change was long-overdue and will instantly improve vehicle balanced while making Irish truly infantry-focused as intended.
This is just how it works out sometimes.This change on its own may weaken lame hill camping but also affects those who are trying to hold an n important position by plopping down the APS next to the vehicle so that the potentially dozens of missiles will not delete them. They have not done nearly enough improvements to the tank mobility and turret angles to compensate for nerfs to sedentary tactics.
Also newsflash: A lot of the anti vehicle projectiles can also be used against infantry. I bet you did not thought of that?
Expect to be RPGed even as infantry at times where you used to be safe pre update, eat rocket pods, more stealth bombs etc.
Like you said, this is how it works out sometimes...

Don't cry now baby, you can still play vehicles in Solo/Co-Op. Vehicle campers will still be easy to kill, but now they just won't have sentinels protecting them. Should never have been a protective option in the first place for vehicles, glad devs have finally woken up. Love how vulnerable vehicles are in 2042, puts the vehicle champs in their place.
This is just how it works out sometimes.They have not woken up, that is just sleepwalking next to a cliff.
By the way if you have not noticed this change does not affect the actually dangerous vehicles, aka the ones that fly. It is an indirect buff to them overall.
I am morbidly curious to see how much free reign will the stealth bombers will have now without anything to stop their payload.

The APS change was made so players can have fun using the new bomber undisturbed by APS’es.
The goal from EA is to make people stick around longer and hopefully then buy Battlepass and what not.
Follow the money 😆
