Vehicles are much much weaker in 2042 than bf4. There's basically no high skill play in 2042 like in bf3/bf4. High skill vehicle players were untouchable in bf3/4.
@SpudBug
You say “vehicles are much weaker in 2042 than BF4”.
Perhaps you missed my previous statement when I
pointed to the fact that:
“shoulder fired AT rockets one shot any aircraft in BF3 and BF4. Not so in 2042. That alone disproves your statement.”
Theres also the fact that other than the quad runner, every single transport and attack vehicle in 2042 has 30mm, 40mm and/or 50mm, low skill splash damage weapons, unlike any previous Battlefield game. The presence of so many vehicles running around with low skill splash damage results in frequent “no warning” type deaths for infantry players.
This new formula where every transport has splash damage weapons is part of the problem. The formula from the past BF titles, that’s present in all other BF games, is lightly armed transports or transports with no armament. We need more light jeeps with machine gun, more quad runners, jet skis, motorcycles, Blackhawk and Huey type transports and less mobile death machines that also happen to carry a passenger or two.
