The Nightbird forces players to leave (console)

It feels silly to repeat it, since it has been said a hundred times. Sweats in Nightbirds are so common that they ruin whole servers. People leave bc the miniguns and maneuverability are simply over...

Oh right, I forgot about how 2 Liz crew members can serve as two independent TV missile launching extensions.
The only problem is knowing other people who can use Liz well.

@UP_Hawxxeye A nightbird like vehicle is also in Battlebit, here players can sit on the sides and fire off RPG's. Making it a tankkiller. Which is fun because the nightbird is actually balacned there. Few MG players can focus fire (normal bullets actually do decent damage to helicopters in that game) and down it quickly and/or quickly kill the passengers.

I wish DICE would make bullets do real damage to aircraft.

    In the case of the nightbird, it makes a ton of sense for it to take considerable damage out of small arms fire.
    It is not armored.

    It would be a great opportunity to solve 2 problems at once with giving AP rounds that purpose and making them especially effective against air/lightly armored vehicles.

    I would also like it if you could damage air vehicles with small arms fire.

    Well they "can" ... sort of.

    Standard ammo with the SFAR for example tickles aircraft, but the standard ammo on the M60 doesn't even do that.

    When I say damage, of course I mean real damage!

    .50 cal 'sniper-rifles' are anti-vehicle weapons in real life. Why not do the same in this game?

    It shouldn't be able to 'oneshot' a NB, but doing 'real' damage would be nice.

    It seems that DICE decided to balance their damage on vehicles based on the assumption that like 10 people use them at once.
