Manhattan Bridge

Is it an expectation to see someone go 94-2 as a kill death ratio?

Why is that possible - how is that possible?

The roofs were taken off from Manhattan Bridge, at to whose advantage?

The roofs in a city are a viable and legitimate response in urban warfare. Especially when there are "scout" helicopters equip with massive payloads.

Those on the roofs of Manhattan Bridge deterred those that consistently abuse the little bird. Strategically, there is the least chance to get a good shot from any vantage point as an engineer, there is zero chance to shoot it out of the sky as any other class - there isn't opportunity for t he AA for the same reason because of the height of the buildings are blocking LOS (Line of Sight).  This is an advantage that NEEDS to be retrofitted to challenge "ratio farmers". There is no other map that does this. 

Urban warfare assumes rooftop positioning. It's idiotic to limit rooftops and allow a heavily impactful and effective vehicle to freely fly around. It is JUST this map to that makes most sense to position or roofs to agitate/combat enemy aircraft. Again, a player can play well and earn a skill well earned, however an individual playing with a ratio over 30:1 or more is not a balanced game. Any other game would call for suspicion of hacking, cheating, or just BS to the point of disinterest; or worse.

This callout is just to bring back the roofs that were already available in Manhattan Bridge prior to an update - not every roof - at least some that were taken off. There needs to be more mitigation from the abuse of one vehicle on one certain map. There are enough buildings to block, a skilled player should be challenged.

Bring back the rooftops on this map, it was a bad call to remove them, there are no other maps or modes that someone can go 94 kills and 2 deaths. Consistently, at least a 20:1 ratio in a vehicle (little bird) only on Manhattan Bridge. Who complained to get those roofs removed? Probably pilots.

    Manhattan Bridge map doesn’t need a helicopter per team. This map doesn’t warrant a helo. Let us enjoy some ground warfare please 

     Neu DICE BF6 team needs to take a page from OG DICE BF4. if rooftops are intended as being part of the map, then follow the Siege of Shanghai and Dawnbreaker map example and add internal stairwells and elevators to every high rise so all players can access the rooftops and not just the cheaters or people that are glitching terrain.

    I agree with the analysis of the problem, but not with the proposed solution: the roof camping on that map was utterly obnoxious at release, I don’t want to see it back unless they rework the buildings’ interiors to give alternative roof access. And let’s be honest, that’s never going to happen.

    The problem is simple: you could only access the roofs through chopper. Once your own chopper was down, you couldn’t go and challenge the enemy. And with objs being stupid squares on the ground, a couple of guys on a roof were be enough to defend an obj all game. I know, I did it many times. And I’m not a pilot and I posted a long post here complaining about it  

    But yes, removing the roofs means that infantry has zero counter play to choppers on this map. So I just want to see the choppers gone. I understand they thought it’d be cool to have choppers in the New York sky, but it clearly doesn’t work, they need to go.
