You've already massively reduced the accuracy and damage of the 30mm cannon, and now you've reduced the number of shots to overheat the barrel. Just get rid of it already.

@IKilledOO7Ya it’s really nerfed to the point of no return yet you get one shot from across the map and your done. Can’t take any objective as a sidearm can take you out. It’s ridiculous.Put it back they way it was, no one shot driver kills and make it a one shot M5 recoilless to take it out.

Why not just get rid of the Bolte instead of nerfing it twice per week?

It's a tracked transport. It was never intended for sustained offenses. Prepatch, I literally annihilated, not just held off but annihilated ~3 squads coming over a sand dune from well outside the reasonable range of retaliation. It was like a singleplayer moment or something out of a movie. You actually need to concentrate on taking people out now which is a good thing. It's still a very capable vehicle given its speed and tracks and it has a great damage profile vs other vehicle weapons as well.

Thats the only thing they can do at this point

@rainkloud The game goes mostly by a objective getting captured by a large group, sometimes mid game I’ll see a squad come in but for the most part very few players will stay and defend it. That for me is where the Bolte comes into play. Rush over and retake it and if nmy is still in the area they should need a M5 as currently all is needed is one shot. Sometimes you can keep it moving but most are too small.
With a one shot M5 nerf and protection for the driver would make it worth while and still easy to take out. I can hardly find any one that will gunner now and I don’t blame them.

I think the bolte is in a right place atm. Its not too overpowered but its still very usefull.
Its no longer and sit and barrage area kinda thing but its a fast attack vehicle (even though its technically a transport)

It was a fun novelty when it first came out and the initial nerfs were pretty much justified. Now however, it is becoming really annoying as a roadkilling machine.
I do think it needs to be a tad more susceptible to small arms fire.

@IKilledOO7 you have to remember they already made paid skins for that..... EA would never loose out on that sweet sweet revenue

Has anyone else noticed the Bolte feels slower at top speed?
At this point Dice has neutered the Bolte way beyond nerfed...
And now the best way to get kills is running over enemies...just like happens in real military battles (sarcasm)...

@DeepSixxxx Well, considering the maps have horrible choke points for 128 players, the bolte was waaaay too effective. Just a few shots with the 30mm and you'd have like 10 kills on certain areas... Not totally the Bolte's fault, more the map design. If you can only hold a choke point from a spot where's there only 2 decent cover options then everyone goes there to defend...

The Bolte is still good with its mobility. Even the 30 mm Canon isn't that bad. You just can't mindlessly run into Points/Groups and wreak havoc like before.
