Please figure out a solution to Helis

I love this game and franchise and have been playing for years. I own it on PC and PS5.

At this point, helis are still not easy to get. I feel they are overpowered in the hands of a good pilot and ruin the fun for absolutely everyone else. I thought it was gonna last until the Top Gun event for the season, but it just keeps on going. This is how this game ends every time when there is a good pilot.

Tanks can be a little strong against C4, for example; maybe there is a point that could be made for it. But, overall, tanks are well balanced. I can kill a tank with an RPG, C4, other rockets, or mines. How long can a tank or jet harass a contested point until 10-12 players give up? This heli can. How do I take out helis, say, especially a Little Bird on a small map?

My team took control of Tower B and was leading in Conquest on the Manhattan Bridge map. At least 10-12 players were on the building, and the heli kept harassing us until the whole top floor was clearly visible. We couldn't attack it at all.

Yes, please reward a good pilot or any player with easy kills. But, within reason. All I am asking is if you make the helis strong, give us stronger weapons to counter it at least. DICE, please fix this; at this point, it is unbearable to play. Look at the statistics for how many times people leave and if they are unhappy after a game.

  • Use the custom search mode and only select maps that dont have helicopters till dice actually does something about them.

    DICE does not care. The experience for 2 to 3 Helicopter pilots per match is WAAAAY more important than the experience of the 62 other players that are on the ground.

    For some inexplicable reason, the devs simply don't want to balance this. They've added man-portable AA with inexplicable conditions under which it can't fire. For example, the IGLA: "below radar" EVEN THOUGH the weapon doesn't use radar in any way!
    You just can't understand it.
    And when they do announce that BELOW RADAR is being removed, 5 minutes later they put out a new post saying it isn't. Their confusion is total. I'm done with it. My time is far too valuable and precious to waste on suffering through an otherwise great game. I recommend abandoning this piece of junk and trying BF 1 or BF 5 :) They have their flaws too, but the gameplay is pure. And I'm writing all this with great sadness, believe me.
