Unbalanced Vehicles
So yes, I am a sweat for the vics in this game, Always have been since BF3.
We are wanting a game to be on par or above with BF3/4 as in my opinion, they were the best, Modern and balanced.
Vehicles in this game are pretty unbalanced, Yes its only days old and I hope they are able to sort this.
Problems I'm having/find to make this game unfun for vic players:
- AA-
The amount you can fire off is stupidly low, then an excessive time to cool down for such a short burst of bullets.
Armour is poor, I'm not expecting MBT or IFV levels but getting one shotted by a TOW or 1 round from an MBT is just unfair, sure its realistic, but so is ripping apart a heli or tearing off a jet wing within a second with the AA, but that would be OP.
Bullet damage is poor, I cant even kill infantry with 2 bursts with the cooldown, now I know you don't want to instantly kill them, but the inaccuracy/spread within 100m and amount you have to put down range just to kill 1 infantry is silly.
Combined with damage and fire rate, Attack Helicopters should not be able to fly in the open and easily take out the AA, the 2 above reasons I believe are to blame. What's the point in Anti Air if Air can easily take it out?
Ability to visually disable the radar, even if its just for the player, it blocks so much view from the 3rd person when playing, it does drop away when looking up but it takes time to do so and by then, the 'Jet' will not be above you anymore.
Adding to the above point, raise the 3rd person camera up so we can see more? BF4 was nice and far away. - MBT-
Armour is good, BUT getting insta killed by one AT mine is pushing it.
Getting one shotted from the rear shouldn't insta kill you, realistic yes, fun no, never happened in 3,4 so don't introduce it now, Fully agree with the engine dying if shot but not the insta kill. - IFV-
Nothing really to add here, pretty balanced, Maybe a bit more splash damage with the explosive rounds? - Jets/Helis
Bit more armour, Both jets and helis can be killed from other jest in less than half a second. Again realistic, not fun.
Ability to have a separate slider for the sensitivity for aerial Vehicles, for me, the jet and heli controls are sluggish, when I turn up the aim sensitivity the ground vics are just too sensitive. Needs to be separate. - Maps-
They are just too small to have a proper Armour v Armour at a decent range.
Fav from BF4 was Golmud Railway, Massive and mobile cap points (and a AC-130) :)
I look forward to the future of this game, as a lot of vic slots are greyed out so I'm hoping they will be able to be upgraded with other weapons in the future, e.g. Passive AA.
If for some reason any of my above points have easy fixes that I'm blind to (I've looked and cant find anything obvious) please correct me as it would be much help.
