[video] Enemy heli spawn camps, then steals our attack heli. WTF.

Here's what happened. I joined a game in progress on Manhattan Bridge. I see the heli is about to spawn and jump in. A few feet off the ground, I get killed by the enemy heli. OK, that sucks but it happens on this map. I'll try again. But as I'm waiting, I can hear the enemy heli hovering over our spawn. I can hear it because when you mouse over a vehicle spawn icon, you hear the audio from the location where the vehicle spawns. So I decide not to spawn in the heli, and wait to see what happens. Our heli spawns at our base, and no one from our team takes it. Then in the little video window that shows our heli on the helipad, I see the enemy heli gunner parachute down and steal our heli. WTF Dice. It is so messed up that this is possible. The spawn camping was bad enough, but to reward the other team with an additional heli is truly egregious. The enemy should not be able to get into unoccupied vehicles in the opposing team's base, or even set foot in their base. Entering the enemy base area on foot should result in instant death.

    I'm a bit confused by some of the replies here. There IS an automated AA gun at the HQ. Do people not realize that? It does a great job of shooting down incoming missiles/rockets, but not so much when it comes to enemy aircraft. It should be buffed against aircraft.

  • Omg yeah..this is clearly for. Reworking. WTF?! AE team devs.Where is your brains?! How many years need to see that and thinking about it ?! Explain to us please.I know,i know,not need to tell me,"we are too peoples and make mistakes..oh .well..I can continue count  more with  not well to thoughled designs,desions!! Seriously Start much more better and play your silly game with slot ways. I know you roo played,but with not enough ways to see what exactly for changeing!! 

  • This has been happening since the very first Battlefield game. It could be fixed by adding automated AA in the spawn area, similar to what we had in Battlefield 4.

    But if you ask me, I’d just leave it the way it is.

  • I know why not bring back vote ban and server rentals to handle spawn campers. thats how it used to be. BF is dead

  • Every map should have an AI-operated AA trailer at the base to prevent this from happening. I've never heard anything like this in a modern setting battlefield game as what usually happens when an enemy air vehicle enters the perimeter of the Friendly base spawn it gets shot down almost immediately. Flying around inside the base with impunity and camping the vehicle spawns is ridiculous.
