Vehicles were way stronger in BF4 I don’t know what you are thinking? Tanks and Helis had thermals. Attack heli had a TV missile. Jets had cannons that could target infantry. LAVs and tanks had APS. They were way stronger. You’re being blatantly revisionist. With the exception of the Hind/condor, the air vehicles are weak compared to 4. Honestly if you’re being farmed by a nightbird, you’re just bad.

I still play BF4, actually more than BF2042, it's not revisionist to say BF4 has better vehicle balance. There is a counter to virtually any vehicle in BF4, thermals, TV missiles and stuff like that don't bother me in the slightest either and I mainly play as infantry.
As to the nightbird, prior to that one patch that moved it to the attack slot it was farming infantry regularly so I guess everybody must be pretty bad and need to "get gud" eh? Ignoring flaws in vehicle balance and making specious arguments like "If you're getting farmed by a nightbird, you're just bad" isn't going win any arguments on the matter.
And for the record I'm not anti-vehicle, actually I'd like to see the AA and tanks buffed a bit as well as the jets be more effective vs. other aircraft. I think lowering the ceiling for helicopters and leaving it static for jets would be a positive change as well as removing the AGM in favor of AA. Add a ground support anti-vehicle aircraft like the A10 for dealing with ground forces just don't overdo it when they do.
Everything needs a counter-balance, cause if it's not it'll just drive more people away.
