Re: it's impossible to grab helicopter

@Man_iLoveFishingDidn’t they turn the space bar action off? 2-3 patches ago they removed the space bar as an action so you have to manually select the vehicle gear then the vehicle you want. That killed the macros, which I think was the point. That’s my understanding anyways.

    @ATFGunr No, and if they would, it wouldn't kill macros tho. Cause mouse still clicks. And there are macros that emulate mouse cursor locations. (And it would be fairly unfair against pc players when console players press buttons, cause arrow down and enter is faster than aiming cursor to vehicle options and then select vehicle).

    Sadly they still haven't added a queue system for vehicles to prevent one player hogging their favourite vehicle all game. In older games this was usually moderated by server rules/admins but in lieu of this, Dice Sweden has failed to implement an automated alternative. It doesn't help that there are far fewer vehicle slots available compared to older games despite significantly larger maps and player counts.

    The vehicle count is terrible in 2042 especially trying to get in one.

    This needs fixing with more vehicles on larger maps and a queue type system to stop those cheating macro idiots. Macros need to be banned.

    @SithMetal71Naming and shaming, first you need to learn how game works. Getting vehicle faster has nothing to do with macros when its ping based. I don't use macros and get 95% of time helicopter.


    EDIT: What i mean is, server is sending information that it's available. If i have smaller latency, i see it earlier, we are talking about milliseconds. Sometimes it doesn't even flash.

    @Noodlesocks they can create a pilot class, so pilots can get vehicles easier.the efective way is turn back to BF3, BF4 style.

    @murdocklawlessWell, that's how I do, cause macro won't guarantee, it's only for lazy ppl. And practice is about getting vehicle if you want to be quick, especially in the beginning of the match.
