Like how much are you gonna cater to the call of duty infantry junkies? Battlefield is the only franchise of its kind where you can actually exp nice vehicle gameplay and you keep on throwing nerf after nerf on them.There has never been so many ways to take down air vehicles. You got the wildcat, stinger, tracer lock on, soflam, tanks that got op projectiles, a freaking specialist with tv missile with infinite amount of ammo. You removed air vehicles from breakthrough and now this, might aswell just play call of duty at this point if you wanna be call of duty.

@FarystarLovesBF1 i can also argue that a good pilot is nearly impossible to take out in a stacked "transport heli" if the pilot overstretches his welcome he should be shot down for that....your argument of " a good team can shoot down entire fleet in matter of minutes" works just as much the other way....

@999Impreza explain to me again why a "transport helicopter" needs 2 miniguns, a 50mm cannon or 40mm grenade lancher and access to 2 sheltered repair spots. on top a "transport helicopter" can take more DMG then the MBTs and is much harder to hit then said MBTs. are we even playing the same gane anymore or have we entirely detachted from reality now?

@999Impreza It’s all about balance. It’s not about making a tiny percentage of players who fly well be masters of their own domain at the expense of the masses on the ground. The Hind has been OP for over a year. We won’t even know yet how much the 20% damage modifier will affect the Hind. Between wrenching and auto repair, it may not be as impactful as it needs. At least wait until Wednesday to bring out the crying towels.

@FarystarLovesBF1 Oh a good team can do it. So maybe 1 in 10 matches, that sounds fantastic /s. Respawning a heli once or twice a match must be devastating.

@FarystarLovesBF1 so to do that i need one person to shoot and hit the tracer dart, then i need three players to lock on, then the heli flares to negate the lock on then one player needs to hit another tracer dart, then three players need to lock on again (all the while not getting killed for staring in the sky by the other 31/63 players on the enemy team) and then hit in order to kill one vehilce in the enemy team.....let alone that the infatry needs at the very least 4 players to coordinate and hit perfectly while the enemy chopper only needs his flares to negate said lock.....do you see the powerimbalance? if not you might need to see your opthamologist.on top the chopper could also just kill these players with guns since all they do is stare at the sky they can be rather easy to spot on these big barren fields....

@999ImprezaDude i cannot agree more with you and i also mention about spawn time and removal of vehicles in my toipic. I bought all this expensive skins i cant even enjoy them on my air vehicles most of the time.

What a shame to cater 0.1% of top air players, where others get shot down like in a minute. Or i have to wait 20 minutes just to get a chance maybe to use some Air vehicle.

@999Impreza If this goes on it will turn to call of duty for sure. Very sad.

Yep they removed airstrips in bf1 and i honestly thought it would come back for 2042. I've seen snipers just insta spawn on nightbirds to get to a "sweet" camping position.

@X-Sunslayer-XBecause a good team can shoot down entire fleet in matter of minutes with no defenses on this transports. Specially on my EU region i never ever saw a nightbird or any transport to survive long, but maybe in some rare case matches and i play alot.
Playing PC with crossplay on.

@SnubbyFighterYou know there are alot of people that want to play air vehicles and level them etc. You know how much time an average noob needs in order to level a vehicle to unlock most of the things let alone tier 1.
And above everything i said, some people just enjoy flying and spending the time in the air for a relaxed game play. Not a lot of people play aggressive style with air vehicles.

This is not like older BF series where everything was unlocked by default on vehicles that was designed to do a specific role on the battlefield.
There is alot of matches where a side is not affected by one good heli fighter compared to holding or taking objectives. I have been in many matches where pilots had good score, but we obliterated them by 500-700 tickets or on average by 300 tickets.
