Second helis require way more skill in fighting other helis and dodging stingers in the process than just using a broken gadget.
You're happy because now you can shot down air vehicles with no effort with a BROKEN GADGET, NOW THAT IS THE TRUE DEFINITION OF SKILLESS.
So if you suck to play vehicles or you don't want to, it's not my problem the whole idea is to BALANCE the game.

Seriously guys, why do you keep insulting your fan base?
After 9 months you give us ONE new map? One. Where is the new mind blowing destruction you advertised earlier last year? Where are the cool events on the maps? Why is there still no Server browser, no global chat??
Why does 2042 look last Gen? Everything in this game feels like 2 steps back. I just played some BF 1 again and holy * - the difference is really mind bending. From the raw sounds to the complete war chaos. I really wish 2042 would be like that. The content. I know ive said this a billion times but by this time, BF4 DLCs were all released with 4 new maps each. We're talking 16 new maps within a year. Content was King and its not anymore....

This season 1 content is like submitting your assignments online knowing you’re only going to get 40% I cannot believe they released 1 weapon 1 map 2 helicopters that are both the same just different skins lol and 1 specialists my word this is embarrassing. I say 1 weapon because the VSS is already in the game from BF bad company 2 the cross bow is the only new weapon we get despite sitting on only 2 lmg 4 assault rifles and 4 smgs lol.

anyone have an idea of the range on the new missile? could be a fun sniper killer. also, pop up attacks on tanks are going to be fun!

just think of how much of a headache one can be for vehicles with recharging TV missiles and a soflam. TV missiles for stealth helos and soflam for everything else 🙂
- Lancelot_du_Lac3 years agoSeasoned Ace@SkyL4Ncer21 Too early to say how air war will be affected. I seem to remember TV missiles and guided AA launchers in previous versions. Didn't ruin the game then.
I remember the guided launchers were very hard to master - most people gave up because it used a valuable gadget spot.- Anobix3 years agoSeasoned Ace@Lancelot_du_Lac I don't remember guides launchers that were TV missiles though, I remember them being controlled from the shooter's perspective like the TOW missiles on vehicles, making it far more difficult. Otherwise it was never that hard to use the TV missile back in the BF2 days to just fly it into another vehicle/etc. In fact, I remember practicing switching seats back in the day to do it lol.
- Lancelot_du_Lac3 years agoSeasoned Ace@Anobix as I recall, the TV missiles were on helis.

I'm definately going to be recording the first 30 seconds of my first match on the new map (hopefully with 128 players).
I expect to launch in the chopper only to look up and see 50 little red lights making their way through the air towards me.
Given that none of the gameplay footage shown so far appears to show much more than 32 players at a time I also expect that the servers will completely lag out and crash about 10 seconds later.
I imagine that the introduction of this new TV missile will see all maps reduced to 64 players in short order....or the missile will be removed.
I was actually expecting a wire-guided missile that was controlled from the perspective of the operator.
The TV guided missile that they've gone with simply has to be pushing the limits of this game's engine at higher player numbers.

- AiRPasterNaK3 years agoRising Veteran@Psubond Because nailing a shot with a TV guided missile it's super easy.
Specially if there are more than 38 people carrying the same gadget bro, it's not gonna be just you shooting at me.
UCAV was the perfect example, in siege of Shanghai just one guy carrying it could easily shot down the enemy chopper over and over again with absolutely no effort.
I have seen it happen a lot, thank god that was a DLC gadget and was exclusive to the support class.
Trust me bro this is gonna be really bad if this launcher its not balanced properly.- sk1lld3 years agoLegend
I look forward to playing the new map if it ever comes up in the map rotation. will probably give the new tv missile a try as well.
Mostly positive changes IMHO.
