@AdamonicLol, sure it is noob machine. It's cool to fly and destroying easy unaware targets lol. But I recall this, you probably have slim to none chances against high level pilot, that's what makes it interesting, being aware, all the time on look and countering enemy air.
Tried a few rounds in conquest and breakthrough and I gotta say not much has changed in regard to helicopters.
Stealth helis are still ruling the roost on breakthrough, staying in stealth-mode and hovering above AA range and dropping bombs on flags.
Transports helis are now just running the grenade launchers instead of the cannons and are still being used as attack gunships and not transports. They're still beating out jets too in air-to-air combat from what I saw as well.
The Wildcat AA is slightly better but still a TV missile or wingsuit/parachuting C5 magnet and usually doesn't last long.
So far not too impressed with these so-called "nerfs" they were supposed to get.
@Ironhead841to be fair a Hind IS a gunship IRL just not an AC-130

I have lost count of the movies/comics where the big bad is hunting the good guys down using a Hind
I know but in BF2042 it's supposed to be a "transport" not an attack chopper. I didn't make that distinction, BF2042 did.
All I am saying it's not too much has changed with this patch as far as I can tell.
