@ATFGunrBuff attack heli, nerf nightbird
If I fly the attack heli, I can survive UNTIL I come across the TOR (across the map) or the enemy nightbird with it's miniguns. It's 100% game over then.
@Wargame_Enj0yeryes, nightbird is better in anti air than other heli's and jets because it has the best maneuverability, smallest hitbox and really strong miniguns that shred other aircraft, which is weird since even in the game itself it's listed as "soldier killer" and not as "vehicle killer",
Attack heli's have been pretty disappointing in this game tbh, would like to see more firepower to compensate for it's lack of mobility

OR? Howzabout we just eliminate the littlebird and the stealth helicopters altogether?
Still no maps free from these pests.

Hi
I don't support nb nerf. People play solo AH, that's why they loose. If you have gunner on board, things are different. And if you encounter actually good AH pilot, it's sweaty fight. Again, it takes only 2 rockets.

“Only takes two rockets” you say? That’s true however due to the maneuverability of the Nightbird getting those two rockets on target can be impossible. Meanwhile it’s nose up flying backwards shredding you with the mini guns (the 20mm are way less effective). An average Nightbird pilot will down a good attack pilot every time. There’s a strong imbalance. I’m not a fan of nerfing everything though, these devs are way to willing to nerf something into the ground. So if you’re not nerfing the one then you have to buff the other. Maneuverability is the easy buff answer for the attack helo.
