Any pilot right now is seething. the nerf was wayyyy too much. It takes a couple people with AA rockets or 1 AA vehicle to knock a nightbird out. One recoiless round and it's done. It sounds like your entire team ignored the deaths and cause and kept running on objectives rather than taking it out. You can blame the helo for crappy team.
If you're flying the Nightbird right, keeping low, darting in and out, you will never get locked...The thing is broken as *, and the Bolte is even worse.
The problem is how easy it is to lock and destroy the attack helicopters which are just big flying stinger sponges.
It is obvious when you look at what good players (or high level) do with the Nightbird and the Bolte, they are still the "meta" for a reason.
