How come people are ok with players who are farming infantry on foot. Getting 70-80+ kills in a single conquest game. Yet pilots who do the same thing are instantly not allowed?
This has bothered me for so long. I keep dropping 50+ kills pretty much every single game on foot, and nobody complains about it. But as soon as I get into the littlebird and start dropping same amount of kills, instantly reddit and forums blow up calling me a heli no lifer.
Whats the difference?

@Wargame_Enj0yerMaybe because pilots who are capable of solo farming are actually good and spent an insane amount of time learning that one specific thing?

You know the difference… you’re not going 50-1 every round as an Infantry player. Now contrast that to a Nightbird going 80-1 every single round. That’s nearly double the kills and with very few deaths.
I don’t understand this obsession with wanting an overpowered vehicle, while balancing everything else separately.
It’s not fun or good gameplay trying to take down a helicopter for the entire round. There’s a lot more ways to counter ground vehicles effectively. That part of the game is balanced much better. There’s a big difference between the two parts.
This topic has been beaten to death at this point. The only ones defending air vehicles are the ones abusing it. I have not seen any of you budge even the slightest admitting that maybe it needs a little balancing. You’re happy with it being a tool that you can easily, with average skill, farm infantry. Yeah, I’m sure it’s so annoying to hear the constant lock-ons that never actually hit you. What a tragedy.

@RaginSamBut you don't get 80:1 every single time with nb. Only when there is no resistance and it's up to your team that will or won't let me to fly.
Edit: Also, most of the kills I get on nb are unaware of me.

@RaginSamOnly that average Joe won't be able to get past 10 kills in a littlebird these days.
You might think that every littlebird that gets over 30-40 kills is any average player, but you're mistaking.
You can easily try it yourself, or call upon any other reddit/forum crybaby who wants every vehicle to be deleted to take the challenge.
Go into any match that is not filled with bots, pick a nightbird or stealth heli, record your experience, and post it here. I effing dare you.
I guarantee you will either chicken out and say something along the lines of "I know it's OP I don't have to prove anything" or just ignore and hide because you will get Lis'd within 60 seconds - DaveTheBrave_USA3 years agoSeasoned Ace@RaginSam I did miss a heli once with the Liz missile and then was able to turn around, reacquire the heli and hit it while it was trying to repair and got a 4 kill multi. It was one of the most memorable shoot downs I got because it was one of the most rare. So now are they going to make the Liz missile more challenging or just not worth bothering with? When you do hit an air vehicle, or any vehicle for that matter with it, usually all you score is 20 points damage and they fly off and lick their wounds. I admit I don't fly. I tried to learn in coop play but it was way too tedious. So hats off to those who've learned how but foot soldiers deserve some defenses too! And I think they are deferring to those heli pilots way too much.

Some of you guys need to touch grass, if you don't like the game, don't play it, that simple, why rant 500 words of salt complaints, if you die to a heli play Lis, she is still going to be strong, you act as if EA is nerfing the rocket into the ground, even if they went extreme to meet your unrealistic demands you will still find something to complain about, air power is fun and part of battlefield so many other games that are infantry only, I enjoy the game as it is, and it's nice they're still updating, I was expecting them to abandon after season 3.
You die easy in heli, tank or jet, I don't see any logic in some of these post about "Heli OP omg" clearly tells me people don't fly or understand how the heli works, try to see the bigger picture. good luck to everyone playing regardless of what it is :3 - 3 years ago

How do you qualify, easy?

Every player who is not on the side with the condors/hinds in Breakthrough would like a word.There is nothing other than the liz missiles most of the time that can threaten them there, because some "absolute genius" removed jets from breakthrough

Sad to see the when other players come across more skilled players you rather salt and want something nerfed because YOU don't like it, I think it's good to go against someone better than you in whatever, and yourself getting better and owning them, maybe people are desperate for that instant gratification.
