@TheseusJason "Keep your eyes on the sky with this cutting-edge remote-controlled aerial bomber featuring advanced precision-guided ordinance – including EMP bombs and air-to-ground weaponry."
Oh good, more air to ground focused air vehicles. Because condors and hinds and night birds and jets with rockets weren't enough.
"Increased the damage Air Vehicles receive when colliding with certain objects."
Thank god. The way air vehicles bounce like a tennis ball when they smash into objects at 400mph is ridiculous.
"Increased flare reload time from 12 to 14 seconds."
Lmao, I joked that all DICE would do is extend it by 1 second. I was wrong, they extended it by a gigantic TWO WHOLE SECONDS. So now you have a two second window to lock on, fire and hit a vehicle before it flares again. Assuming it's a noob who doesn't fly away immediately anyway. Or just kills you.
"Wildcat Increased Turret HP from 250 to 550."
Good, but not good enough.
"Wildcat Lowered default cannon range from 700m to 550m."
It can't hit anything at that range anyway.
"M5A3 dispersion has received some changes in the way it’s calculated and biased within the dispersion circle. It will result in approximately 10% better accuracy, most noticeably when dispersion is high."
The best setup for an M5A3 is super short range and a thermal, it really doesn't need a boost imo.
