The Problems with Laser-Designating
Laser-Designating is simply underwhelming, especially when comparing it to BF4. I'm happy they gave the STAFF-Shell and Smart-Rockets the capability to lock-on to lasers, but in praxis almost never ...

Lasering requires team work. A quality I’m not sure 2042 embodies or supports.
- @FlibberMeister Luckily we got Liz and teamwork is not needed anymore.
Self-replenishing TV-guided missiles are the best...

I know what you mean, but to be fair though even in BF4 playing with randoms was always tricky, that's why the means for good teamplay should be encouraged and explained.
@FlibberMeisterFirst sentence of this very topic. ''Laser-Designating is simply underwhelming, especially when comparing it to BF4.''
BF4 did it much better. Something is wrong with game design in BF2042. Has to do with javelin trajectory, the requirement of line of sight for the jav user and the current flare-system.It's mainly the flarespam in my eyes. It cancels out any coordination.

And why does Blasco's *stationary* gadget even counter it?
This just insentivises camping and harms an already underpowered mechanic.
And don't even get me started on the short range of lasering (even shorter then previously) while the maps got bigger + the tracer dart gun only having 4 shots and only getting 1 back per rare ammo crate.
- @Barbar67 Blasco's Gadget feels meh for blocking lock ons, everyone just uses it for jamming the minimap and blocking spots. Hardly think that even contributes to enough players using it for that purpose.
