What happened to Attack Helicopters and Jets on Breakthrough? Now we have the new tanks camping on the edge of the map and people camping on the rooftops on Breakthrough, and there is nothing we can do because there are no more Air vehicles on Breakthrough!
Classic Dice out to ruin Breakthrough mode again.
This is a terrible mistake. I cannot stand conquest with 128 people. the game just doesnt flow well. Hopefully they will bring back 64 conquest because I enjoy flying helis and jets and I really hate that my only option is a terrible 128 conquest. The solution is quite simple. Instead of just removing the air attack vics they should make sure both sides have them at all times. The fact the attacking side would get one and the defending until one or two sections later wouldnt was pretty stupid. Because ever minute instead of just farming defenders on a flag the pilot would now have to dog fight incoming vehicle. Regardless of my solution, I do hope they bring them back to breakthrough or bring back 64 player conquest.
You have two main game modes, Conquest and Breakthrough. By removing attack air vehicles from Breakthrough, you have literally removed air attack vehicles from 50% of the game. The ONLY reason I play battlefield and have since Bad Company 2, is the air attack vehicles. The vehicles are what make this game different from every other generic boring shooter out there that only has infantry play. Why would you take the key aspect of your game that makes you different and attracts all sorts of other "bored of infantry play" gamers and just completely remove it from half of the game? This decision is absolutely ludicrous. I pre-ordered this game in excitement. I didn't give up on this game even with lackluster releases and continuous horrible reviews. I have stuck by this game since it came out and defended it against slander. This ill conceived notion to just completely eradicate vehicles from fifty percent of PVP play is most likely going to be the last straw for me and many other players. I honestly don't even feel like loading Battlefield up anymore, for the first time since last year when it released. To those who would say just play conquest: It is so very boring compared to breakthrough. There is no sense of progression in conquest taking the same post over and over again. I just can't believe the devs think this is a good idea. I mean why not just take air attack vehicles out of the game completely? Then you can be just like every other mediocre 1st person shooter competitor out there.
the air vehicles have gotten no love in 2042, its shameful
Honestly my biggest threat is getting popped out of the driver's seat. But a competent rail tank can MELT helos.
I completely agree. I have been playing BF since the 1942' days. Removing air vehicles completely takes away from the battlefield experience. Like you said I didn't see a single post about this other then it was going to be removed. Tanks become over powered when there are no air vehicles. It takes away from the rock / paper / scissors aspect of battlefield. Slowly but surely this game will become like WarZone.

No, No, No

Removing the jets and attack helicopters from breakthrough entirely was a godawful idea. Please put them back in as soon as possible.
Some of us are refusing to even play conquest in 2042 because it just feels bad on most maps (too much travel time for infantry).
Air attack was dominant because there were only helicopters around and no jets to stop them while the Wildcat slots were taken by Main battle tank users. Both of these issues are addressed by the vehicle category changes
Plus we now also have infantry railguns to mess up the helicopters with. Just a few determined players on a team will delete any helicopter that comes near with these.
The data that you based the removal of the helicopters and jets on Breakthrough are already outdated with the railguns and the vehicle categories changing the entire air to ground balance from pre 3.0
Please guys be reasonable and put the aircraft and helis back on in Breakthrough.
Changes like these are too big to not put them on test on a featured experience portal first.
Breakthrough is a derivative of the epic BF1 Operations and it deserves to have all the possible vehicles in the maps that are not infantry only.
BFV was damaged a lot by major untested changes like the BTK changes that happened and went. Please do not do that on 2042 too

I just want to know when the flying attacker will return to breakthrough mode. If this is impossible, I will be very disappointed. I am very disappointed with Battlefield 2042
Hopefully never. Stealth was horribly abused.
Yep, it sure was especially in Breakthrough. Nothing like trying to defend a point and having some "skilled" pilot hovering over it out of range of any counter just raining bombs down over and over.
I wouldn't care if the added the other aircraft back into BT but leave that damn Stealth parked in the garage!

But now we can hit the damn thing with railguns
