@Anarchiesx wrote:@Padding_Ur_StatsWrong, DICE clearly saw that it was too easy for players to just spawn in as Lis and one-shot-kill an enemy scout/stealth heli. (Even jets weren't safe after the absurd range buff.) I know because I was doing exactly this with Lis whenever I got killed by a heli or jet pilot. There was effectively zero counterplay to a good Lis player determined to kill enemy air.
Yet, they said they're increasing the Lis skill cap for pilots. Hmmmm. The reason for Bug Helos and Jets getting owned was because they slowed down or hovered over nodes making them easy pickings. Pilots chose to give up their speed and agility to farm targets. This is called, Bad Piloting 101. Yet, Pilots continued to fly poorly and complain they died. So DICE Nerf Lis so pilots could continue to fly like an unskilled noob, get easy kills, then epeen the stat board at the end of the game. Yes, we all know why the nerf happend. DICE believes pilots cannot increase their skill cap, and therefore, assigned it to infantry.
Lis can still one-shot-kill those air vehicles, but it now requires being somewhat closer in range and good timing... so yeah, they wanted some more skill involved.
Yes, they wanted more skill, to (and I am quoting) "Ease up on the pilot experience". The range wasn't a huge issue, the agility of the missile is. You see son, good pilots never had a problem dodging missiles because, and pay close attention now, they didn't give up their defense for offense.
You people seem to think that any one of the 64 players on a team should be able to spawn in and instantly delete enemy air vehicles with the press of a button. Why? What would be the point of including any vehicles if you just allow players to destroy them too easily?
Because their high speed and agility make them so hard to kill. Oh Wait, you don't understand the gift you have. You just want to hover and shoot enemies who cant attack you back. That being said, you have 2 helos that are basically glass bubbles and you think they shouldn't be 1 hit by an explosive? Jets are debatable, but Bug Helos should go down on 1 hit. They're glass cannons, literally
It needs to require at least some base level of skill. It shouldn't be too easy or too hard. Last patch it was waaaay too easy lol.
You mean like hovering and farming infantry easy? The irony of your statement is like golden buttered deliciousness served in the morning. We get is son. So did DICE.
@Padding_Ur_Stats You should try using the Anti-Air Tank. It will solve all your problems. I honestly recommend playing Infantry only modes, it sounds like vehicles just aren't something you enjoy.
Ah yes... if we complain, that Lis is nerfed and there is no counter to vehicles and air... use a vehicle! It is that easy... I am impressed with this wisdom...
So this is the balance for you... Infantry should lose against all vehicles, vehicles should be the only effecitve counter to vehicles. But vehicles can just kill all infantry.
Thank you, I think this sounds reasonable. And yes, if you don't like it... just don't play it. Also a good advice, DICE itself had it given some time ago. You know what happened? They just didn't play it, it didn't sell well and when you think this will be the solution, there won't be any Battlefield in the future.
Your argument is just pointless.

Ive looked for them but the ping is so high, I wont join. That being said, the first game I look for is no vehicles. If on has a yellow to green ping, I am there. I also dont solo play anymore. I only play BF with a squad of 4 people I know in a voice chat.
I think more and more infantry will be doing this. DICE just made piloting short bus skill level. I wonder when their games dont spawn, what their whine will be?

That is assuming that it was not taken by some blueberry who wanted a RAM or someone who uses it as an MBT with a non-AA turret.
By the way one of the gunner seats of the Brawler (new transport) has a secondary gunner seat that can be a 20mm AA autocannon. This means that there is another vehicle that can be quite dangerous to nearby helicopters.
