Unbalanced helicopter OP
Being a battlefield fan, I have all the games in the franchise and I'm really trying to give this BF2042 a chance but it seems that you DICE really don't want us to play this game. If a player has me...

Don’t bother, he is a heli fanboi to the death and will never admit helicopters are OP. The point that an expert in ANY other vehicle will not rack up even half the kills of an expert heli pilot is lost on him. Never mind that many times flares did not break IR lock of a missile. Also helicopters rarely engaged and loitered in a hot zone.
@MiklaDfar This is true. I've run almost full rounds on maps like Spearhead where infantry can be squeezed into confined areas, while using either the M1A5 or T28 with HE rounds. Even in say, 20 minutes of gameplay moving around hitting infantry concentrations, I'd be lucky to break over 50 kills on a good run. What strikes my curiosity with the Nightbird is that the point where the minigun fire comes together is at a particular distance. If you're too far away or too close, it spreads too much, and landing enough damage on a moving target becomes difficult. That knowledge is what perks my suspicions when certain Nightbird pilots just obliterate every single thing with a single burst at any range.
