    @S0LIDSNAKE0CEL0T100% Agreed. Anyone who says the 50mm cannon on the Hind/Condor is not OP clearly has never used the 50mm cannon that's on the Light Recon Vehicle. There's a massive difference between the two and yet they're the same cannon.

    I was adamant that the Hind/Condor 50mm Cannon only needed a nerf but after I was getting sniped across the map by the Air Transport whilst I am in a Jet... It is just ridiculous that a transport vehicle can contest with a Jet??? I consider myself a decent pilot so something is definitely wrong with the weapons on the transport Heli. The miniguns have the range of Anti Air guns and the 50mm Cannon is like a sniper. They should only have quarter of the range that they do and only half the damage that they deal.

@InS_Hypno 70-0 is a mediocre game for an actual good gunner. Again they were never an issue back when there could actually be a battle for air superiority in the game. Also randombluedot123 with his stinger missile was actually a threat since flares were often used to counter Jet or Attack Chopper missiles.

A good Hind/Condor pilot and good gunners that communicate are a deadly combo as they should. The same can be said with regards to the attack or stealth choppers. I'd even argue the same can be said for tanks or wildcats (with a full crew). If they're working as a team, dominating folks then they deserve to be towards the top of the scoreboard after every game.

@protoman23 What you are saying is not true. A mediocore team in the Hind/Condor, will smash a good combo in an attack heli in 90%. Theres no chance if they spot you in the same time like you do with them, even if you hit the rocket pods. Also the fact that you need to back off with the attack heli if theres more than 1-2 guys with a stinger on the ground is way different to the Hind/Condor, which just swallows all of them like nothing. They can leave the Hind/Condor like that if they buff the accuracy from the rocket pods from the attack heli but atm its way too OP. And i would say, that i am a good pilot.

    I would rather see 50mm removed or replaced with 30mm or Minigun. Transport choppers should start acting like transport instead of Aerial Tanks. 50mm cannon and 5 RPGs to take them down are beyond ridiculous. In addition, Hind/Condor may escape quickly by using thrusters while constantly being repaired by the crew.

    There are no jets in the air any longer. Nobody plays with LMGs. The balance in the game is seriously disrupted. Assets should be ascribed to a specific map with player size as well! Something is wrong indeed if the guy in Hind/Condor ends the round with 60+ kills.

      Sums it up perfectly in a nutshell, they need to address the problem on a map by map basis, the farming has got out of hand.
