Laser Designated missiles are broken and need to be changed.

The sheer power of a missile + laser designator is fine, however it is so unhealthy in the current state of the game. This combo quite literally has ZERO counterplay against it, unless you want to hide in the back of the map with your Jet or Helicopter doing nothing to help the team. This combo goes through flares, your only mean of defense in aircraft is useless. There is also the fact that the missile warning system does NOT tell you that a laser designated is INCOMING, only that your aircraft is designated. The combo is also inconsistent. At times the missile will just miss with nothing happening. Other times it will miss, then eternally track and hit it's target. The way it should work is to have it track and hit it's target with pin point accuracy unless it's countered by flares. 

Changes that should be made :

  • Have the combo be consistent with it's tracking and accuracy to hit it's target
  • Flares need to be able to counter this combo
  • Missile warning systems absolutely HAVE to tell the player that one is INCOMING 
  • ECM Jammer should be added as an option, have it function like it did in BF3 (It only works to prevent a lock-on and cannot counter an incoming missile)
  • Increase the flight zone on maps for aircraft to make it easier to lose a lock-on. Mirak Valley is very open and barely has any cover for aircraft. Any kind of missile can still lock-on to aircraft even though they are far away in the  "out of combat zone". Liberation Peak is really small for Jets, you can still be locked on in your spawn, very close to the "out of combat zone".
