This guy casually kills 2 condors, 1 apache, and 1 tank in 3 minutes. Won't be long before people start mass complaining about them even though there is only 1 attack vehicle slot now lol. I personally think they're very fun and should be left alone but they do make the Nightbird and Hokum/Apache obsolete.
@Psubond+1 for the resolve
most of the time this is what a team lacks
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
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gunship#Helicopter_gunships
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.
@Ironhead841Because Liz cannot do her intended job properly among other things.
In any case, every map with a hind/gunship needs to have the jet and wildcat slots to counterbalance them.
I cannot stress how frustrating it is to watch a helicopter of any kind (ab)use the much larger boundaries they have to easily escape ground AA in Breakthrough.

For starters the hind/condor need a flight ceiling nerf. Condor also needs a turn rate nerf. If that doesn’t work then also a health/miniguns nerf.

The Stealth Chopper racks up ridiculous amounts of kills, You cant even missile lock it half the time and when you do it just runs to other side of map then comes back for another go. JUST NERF THE CANNONS DAMAGE LIKE YOU DID WITH THE OTHER HELI's ITS TOO OP!
i am going to start hanging out by the wildcat as rao. when stealth helo comes in for a strafing run i'm going to hack his * and pop a stinger for good measure and hopefully the wildcat finishes him (since stealth helo gets flares and stealth you can only get one missile off unless the pilot is stupid)
Definitely sounds like a plan, happy heli hunting.👍
The heavy machine gun pods were in my opinion the biggest issue, it shreds anything in the air from an insane distance with little to no aim required, way too easy and does way too much damage. And those haven't changed. The change on the 50mm on the other hand can't even notice it.
What is this? This thing single handedly ruins AOW with open maps.

Well EA has listened once again to the competitive infantry COD players and nerfed what makes this game fun. The vehicles! Why nerf what makes battlefield, battlefield.
There is no reason to get a vehicle in battlefield if your on equal power to ground infantry. 20 mm shells that take multiple rounds to kill with only direct hits now...ridiculous.
You take the fun out of the game and cater to the whining infantry content creators. The only way you will get me back for future releases is if you give the dev tools to make this game fun. For now it's just COD with lame vehicles here and there to attract one shot hits from infantry rockets.
if you can't admit that the stealth helo is OP then we aren't having an honest conversation
