Lis nerf - why, when, and what?
No mention of the previously mentioned nerf to Lis against air vehicles in the 6.2 patch notes. So I'm wondering 3 things: Why? Lis is the ONLY infantry effective counter for air vehicles! Wh...

@MADMAC50K There are so many ways of dealing with air-vehicles

on top, you can now shoot the Nightbird, stealth heli, and Jet with your main gun without using AP ammo. The problem is Liz is just way too convenient. It caters to the absolute lowest possible neron activation...
The problem is the average player does not care for the rest of the team... One recon with a Soflam can stall the progress of any heli by keeping it constantly spotted and targeted. but this community has the following motto: if everyone thinks of themselves, everyone is thought after
@X-Sunslayer-XI'm talking about infantry counters - not other vehicles. I shouldn't need to use another vehicle to damage aircraft, if AA weapons exist in the game.
Also - the damage from primary weapons since 6.1 update is laughable. Most guns do between 0.15-0.16 damage, meaning an average 41 round mag does a massive 6 damage! And only from a distance of 80m or less. So yeah, utterly useless....
Ohh SOFLAM keeping a pilot constantly spotted? How much damage does that do.....? 😉
- @MADMAC50K what makes you believe its balanced for one infantry player on the ground needing to have the ability to easily destroy any vehicle? its much harder to fly a heli and aim simultaneously than for someone to use a POV rocket with insane speed and mobility....
do you see the discrepancy`?- @X-Sunslayer-X
I honestly would not consider the current Liz able to easily destroy vehicles alone. The armor needs more hits than she can carry while the aircraft is plain hard to hit.
As a heli pilot I just /shrug and barrel roll out of the TV missile's way.- @UP_Hawxxeye its easier to use Liz than it is to use the M5 or RPG to dumbfire them its way...
- @X-Sunslayer-X is it balanced that a pilot and gunner can easily farm infantry (and most vehicles) mostly unopposed, whilst constantly receiving improves and buffs from DICE, and nerf to possible counters? Even jets tend to leave other air vehicles alone these days, much easier to target ground targets...
@MADMAC50K
I have honestly not seen any jets in 2042 which do not go first for other jets when they see them. To ignore the enemy jet is to invite a bogey on your tail at a bad time.Perhaps the 6.2 changes will make jets more likely to dogfight than before.

Yes you should. You can spawn as infantry literally every second. The vehicles spawn every two and a half minutes, and there are far fewer of them on the battlefield than infantry. They have the weaponry to kill vehicles. Also you don't need to use a vehicle to damage an aircraft. Literally get your head out of your * with that.
