Over Balanced.

Hey,

I have been playing battlefield since battlefield 1942.  I was amazed when a game came out that was not only a first person shooter but also had vehicles, it was my favorite instantly.  Desert Combat mod took things to a whole new level.  I don't think that I can recall having so much fun playing a game since those times.  So many great matches.  I really liked the way the artillery was done in that game, I especially liked the SAM Surface to air missile.  It was super fast and devastating.  It had a long range and it was SUPER fast.  I also liked the TV guided missile in BF 4, so I was excited to hear about the G-84 TGM Carried by Lis, excitement was short lived however.  This missile is so slow that a helicopter can outrun it, that is pathetic.  It moves like it's in slow motion, and you can do more damage with a pistol then with a minigun.  I understand that a game has to be balanced, but this is balancing the fun right out of the game.

  • @WolfBlitzkrieger Oh dont forget they also removed the already pathetically weak splash damage from it.. so now it just used to tickle vehicles and two slow to hit aircraft.
  • @WolfBlitzkrieger Just as a tip, you can use shift to "boost" the speed and catch those choppers.. they have however ruined the g84 with the splash nerf.. was barely any point in using it unless the vehicle was almost dead already so used as a kill stealer but the splash damage made it usable..

    now after i T1'd her imma go with the wallhacker specialist since they made that op af
  • +1 on the Desert Combat mention. 

    DC in its heyday - on a good community server - was peak battlefield. No other Battlefield has come close to recreating those feelings.  The infantry combat was atrocious even back then, but vehicle combat was just  *chef kiss* and I'm not even a vehicle player. Forget Zampella, give me Frank DeLise.

    If I recall the Patriot and SA-3 stationary TV missiles also had a manual detonation ability when near a plane - would love to see DICE add that feature in BF2042.

    Yea, for sure, those were the best Battlefiled days.  What I remember most, even though it was early stuff,  It would take a long time to fly around the map.  So what happened, did the maps get smaller, did the vehicles get SO much faster, or what?

    Other gripes include:

    Mounted guns on vehicles are less effective then, lets say, sub machine guns.

    This can be so frustrating.

    Generic sound at times, when  enemies are far away seems like the 3D audio positioning is not present.
