LOW ALT is both reasonable and infuriating. I actually think the first answer should be to slow down the helo combat loop. Reload and flare cooldowns being longer pushes the helos out of combat a bit longer, which gives infantry a bit of time to breath instead of the current deathdeathdeath the helos can rain down. Other changes will be needed after that, but it's a small and easy start.
The funny part here is that for every post complaining about helos being too hard to shoot down, there's a helo player complaining that he can't fly 10 feet without 100 rockets flying at him and killing him.
There are problems all around.
