The current changes not only broke the way the thing aims but there was no reason to reduce the speed of it. The rpg was already underpowered and needed a dead on hit to kill infantry or else it does 70 or lower , only like 170-300's most the time to armor, and mostly had luck when it came to hitting aircraft. Who else thinks this thing never should have been nerfed?
I meant instead of messing with the default zero it already had of just shooting straight.
the Bf franchise dev teams is full of twitch sweat pilot fans, so they get catered to at every opportunity. below radar, weapons constantly being nerfed, the igla being put into the game completely broken and never being fixed, the awful static Aa positions and the mobile AA being less useful against air vehicles than a transport with a heavy machine gun. it's pathetic.
All so little bird sweats can go 100-0 without any trouble.
Not anymore, little bird was nerfed too with recent update :D
Yeah, I haven't been able to rpg a helicopter ever since they messed with this update. I just don't get why they made the rocket go up in an arc and not just go straight for the 100m. It would be like if every gun sight shot high and not centered.
Looks like the upcoming changes are going to do more with launchers but not address the aim issue on the RPG
Key Upcoming Launcher & Vehicle Changes (Season 3/May 2026)
Balance Pass: A full balance pass is being completed on all launchers, specifically targeting underused options like the 9K38 IGLA and MBT-LAW.
Damage Consistency: Guided weapon damage is being adjusted to be less affected by impact angles, providing more predictable damage output.
Vehicle Damage Rebalance: Most anti-tank tools are being tuned to destroy tanks in 3 hits, promoting more consistent anti-vehicle play.
Anti-Air Improvements: Improvements to how anti-air missiles interact with flares will make them more reliable, and launchers are being tuned to feel more distinct in their roles.
Mobility Impact Reduced: Armored vehicles will lose mobility (tracks/mobility hits) less frequently from general damage; this will now be tied specifically to anti-vehicle mines rather than general incoming damage.
The RPG was not balanced pre-nerf. It was extremely overpowered and the nerf was much needed, the zeroing to 100m could be changed but the velocity nerf was more than needed. The velocity is still extremely fast.
It needs to shoot straight like that is a must unless they are going to zero every other gun out like that too for the "realistic" arc since most army rifles are zeroed to 25-300m for that route.
As far as speed goes an rpg is almost as fast as a pistol round, it's still traveling super sonic. I feel the only people saying it's op are heli pilots that cry about getting hit. It has minimal splash, will not kill w/o direct hit, did less than 200 damage to a tank most of the time and you usually didn't have enough rpg's to even finish a tank.
they had to give a reason to people to use the other launchers
It's true the other launchers didn't get much love but you don't have to goof up a manual aim one that didn't have any issues when you had the IGLA that didn't work right out of the gate.
one-man-armies shouldn’t be able to take out a TANK from the front.
