LTLM II Laser Designator is useless

Okay, besides using it as a fancy binocular with rangefinder capabilities, it's completely useless for team efforts. I'd love to see the data and the rationale for nerfing this gadget, given that no one uses target lock launchers, which means that you'd lock the vehicle, it'd be spotted, and you'd watch it for 9 seconds with that nice yellow square. 

 

I know that target locking was problematic at first (looking at you, APC), but why nerf an already underused gadget? Why not give it a buff in order to incentivise more players to use the target lock launchers like the Spire (Stinger), Glaive (Javelin) and Igler (IGLA)?  

 

"Oh, it's no skill if the lock missile is too strong", then why add it in the game? Everyone is running either RPGs, AT-4s or LAWs.

  • I get the reasoning behind the adjustments, but they were clearly not based on statistics. 

    Also, how lockon-missiles work in this game, they more often just hit terrain instead of fly to the painted target itself. IF ANYONE EVER MANAGES TO LOCK ON TO IT.  Seeing people actually make use of a painted target is VERY situational and rare to see in practice. It worked much, much better in BF4. 

    DICE did horrible things to the air-ground mechanics in Battlefield 6. OR DICE-devs themselves are heli-mains.
