Re: Disable the 60mm flak, until you can fix it!

@Echo6EchoJust to clarify, im playing Breakthrough, so i can't speak for Conquest.
Im not saying they should nerf it, im saying they should fix it, it's big blast radius is, well fine, but there is no damage drop of, no matter the distance you are from the blast.
But my main problem is getting killed behind walls, as you can see in both videos, im pretty sure anyone can agree, that is ridiculous.

The thing is though, that the 60mm actually is dominating, not too many people have unlocked it which i probably why people don't equip it, but im not sure.
I agree that open spaces it won't dominate and it's quite fine actually, but more confined spaces for infantry, it definitly will.
If you take Exposure for example, first sector of BT is fine, because Rockets can counter it, but down in the 2nd sector in the facility and tunnel, you can't really counter it, because it's big and broken blast dominates because, you can't really counter, and it can go through walls.
Same as for the datacenter in kaledioscope...

    @Flommingsen I can see your point and it is frustrating, BUT, that second clip wasn't through a wall. He was in the lower tunnel and had a shot to the ceiling above where you were standing AND it took three shots to kill you. Now the first one, WTF yeah. I don't buy that people don't have it unlocked. With the exception of a few players, everyone has been playing this long enough to unlock the flak. I doesn't take very long and at this point, if you don't have it, you just have NEVER gotten in a vehicle or haven't played. There are very few times that I get in that someone has it and that's just too many for it to be a "non-unlock" issue.

    @Echo6EchoYeah okay the second clip can be argued, but considering the damage at the distance from the roof of the opening it's still to high damage for that tbh.
    To again lay weight on people not having it unlocked, TBH i never really play vehicles so i have just unlocked it around when Update 1.2 came.
    It is unlocked at 420 kills/assist/vehicle destroyed on the wildcat, so not the hardest to unlock, but for the MAV it's 1050, which takes a lot longer.
    But you also have to consider that it is the mess, that is BF2042, a lot of people probably haven't played since launch until S1 came about.
    There could be a lot of reasons why people wouldn't have unloacked it yet.
    But im still holding on to my point that it needs to get fixed and not directly nerfed 😉

    @Echo6Echo If people haven’t already unlocked it in solo mode then they’re not interested in doing it. I seem to get in a lot of vehicles that don’t have the upgraded weapons, and assume its because they haven’t bothered to equip it. I die from it a fair amount though so it’s definitely unlocked by lots of folks.

    @Prof3ss0r_M1k3The splash damage from the 60mm flak is bigger than the nullifie zone of the sentinel.

    It will easely get destroyed by the splash damage and therefore continue to be useless against 60mm flak, trust me im one of the few players who play Irish constantly, almost at 170 mastery with him.

    The flak itself needs a nerf, reduced splashdamage so it can’t be outranged against irish sentinel and a huge direct hit damage buff against all targets.

    If you shoot the 60mm flak directly at an infantry body he survives it like nothing happened.

  • @Bolvard i haven't played the new update. i was hopeful it would help. i'm pretty high in mastery with irish as well, can't remember but it's 100+. i haven't gotten to try the sentinel with the new update though
