Re: EA does it again; removed 20mm AA Flak from LATV...
@ElliotLH Do you think there is a chance EA/Dice could enhance the hovercraft's armor to equal the LAVT? I would definitely use the hovercraft more often.

@KOT-RottenDeslok welcome to BF2042, that's how they handle things here. ☹️
About the hovercraft i don't really see them touching it again tbh. That's where it all started, the hovercraft being too OP and armored.
But who knows, nothing would surprise me anymore by now.

@Its_Travis_199Well, I just got through playing a round of Control and now they have removed the 20mm AA Flak from the hovercraft. The guy was in a Little Bird and went 68-4. EA/Dice poor move on removing AA Flak from the LAVT and Hovercraft. Back to all-out Air Superiority!!!!!
@KOT-RottenDeslok yeah i just talked about this topic in another thread with someone, the way they like balance things and add/remove things on the fly.

I just got through playing a round of Control and EA/Dice removed the 20mm AA Flak from the Hovercraft. Back to all-out Air Superiority! A player in a Little Bird went 68-4. How is this supposed to be fun for the ground players. Basically, the next highest in was 21. Please see the below screenshot and please notify EA/Dice developers:
- @KOT-RottenDeslok I'm not sure in all honesty. They'd probably wait to see the usage and stats etc before considering doing anything, I imagine.
Similar to as i also said in a different thread about a topic like this.
If so many people get killed often by a good chopper pilot they start talking in the ingame chat about it ect. but nobody actually comes back with AA rocket launchers and stuff to f*** up that chopper. 😉
If more players in that lobby would play that way, you either get him down quick and stop him enjoying flying. Or if he still keeps getting away with flares, you at least stop him from farming kills. Because if many people lock-on as soon as he comes close, he basically has to turn before he can even start farming kills.
If he keeps flying low to stay below radar, get him with none lock-on rocket launchers because he will be close and easier to hit.
Sometimes players just also have to do something instead of talking ingame how annoyed they are.
I mean, if he kills that many then there is a whole team being annoyed. As a team you are strong! 🙌

- @Its_Travis_199 We did come with AA rocket launchers, but other players do not bring ammo. Battlefield 2042 changed the way Battlefield is played. 2042 was more like hero shooter when it first launched, but has been getting better. No one plays for the betterment of the squad or team; it is too much solo play.
- @Its_Travis_199 It's fair to say that there are many people who complain about balance whilst taking full advantage of necessary counters available, people who work together. These complaints should not be dismissed as they are fully valid.
I've posted proof that Rao's hack is inconsistent, no word on that being fixed. The same bug is present with the SOFLAM. Why would anyone waste their time using team support gadgets when they don't work properly.
In summary of your argument it is apparent that you deem apparent imbalance as something that stems from a "skill issue", this is unequivocally false when the tools available are themselves to blame, when a tool such as the 20mm AA Flak is introduced, a tool that works as intended despite a hit notification bug, it should come as no surprise that people will use what's best available to deal with aircraft. To then completely remove it instead of making minor adjustments and fixing the associated bug just tells you a decision was made on the spur of the moment.
In a nutshell, a viable tool was removed when it should not have been removed. This was the only saving grace for these stealth copter pilots...and now they take it away...dice/ea, please, give it back...the only ones who complained were the pilots who would kill farm lobbies. The rockets they give you to defend yourself now are not sufficient. I know they give plenty of ways but rockets are slow and weak compared to the overwhelming power the helicopters have in the right hands.
- @ingloriusbastid Agreed. EA/Dice is working to balance 20mm AA Flak and I think the Little Bird. Hopefully they will come to a speedy resolution soon.
That's your teams fault. the best pilot in BF can't overcome a team working together to remove the littlbird or stealth. yall just dropped the ball.
