Why are they nerfing the Night bird?
It's the only helicopter that's actually half decent at killing infantry and it takes a good pilot with good aim for it to be effective. I think Dice needs to reconsider.

That's not true at all. They definitely don't have too much splash damage and from my experience you have to be pretty damn accurate with it to get kills and it also takes several hits to even get a kill.
@Anonymou88 Agreed. Splash damage isnt high enough at all.
- @nickmajic Try it with the first unlockable rocket pod, it's 2 or 3 near hits.
Also, the hokum's pilot cannon (the last unlock) is better at killing infantry vs the HE cannon on the little bird, difference is you can't overextend with the hokum and survive unlike the little bird.
That last bit is the nerf.
Also, calling the little bird with HE cannons and upgraded rocket pods "weak" against infantry is a joke, hopefully?Survivability in the Night bird depends on the skill of the pilot. So you're saying the Night bird should be nerfed because of you're own inability to take out a good pilot and the skilled pilots should be punished. That sounds a** backwards to me.
- @Fringerunner Also, the Nightbird is technically a transport vehicle but it's better than the attack choppers xD
Anyways, they got a well deserved nerf because it was just getting ridiculous how easy it was to rack up kills on it. Honestly, a bit better aiming will still get you plenty of kills, it just won't wipe their entire force.
Also LOL, making BS claims without evidence which you just gave: you wreck players in a nightbird, so do most people. Because it's so easy. That's why it got a nerf. How about you man up and take the nerf and get good yourself, which is honestly just aiming slightly more accurate for the same effect.I'm a veteran Battlefield player who's been playing since the very first game. None of you are even on my level. It's pathetic that you can't even think of an original comeback you just repeat what I already said to you. This new generation of kids are nothing but sissies and Dice has lost my respect for catering to them. That's ok because EA and Dice will never see another cent from me and that's a guarantee.
- @nickmajic agreed.. stupid actually hit targets to be a good pilot w.e. its area weapon you want us to snipe with a helicopter... get out of here with that nonsense lol
