Re: Please NERF Ilya Muromets Barrage Bomber!
@tat2jon not sure if it's still possible after the latest update, given the increased reload time on the clusterbombs, however when the heavy bomber is used by a coordinated team who know what they are doing and is opposing a team of mostly blueberries who have no clue what they are doing, it is not that amazing. Especially on Operations where enemies have only up to max 3 objectives on which they tend to cluster.
You need a pilot who has decent map knowledge, and yes it helps if he manages to keep the plane in the air 😉
Before reaching the objective, the pilot takes out stationary AA with the twin Auto Cannons. This is where the map knowlegde comes in handy. If the enemies are indeed completely clueless they won't even repair them, making the process much easier.
Next a few crewmembers will help, especially if you have one support player with a repair tool on board. Your crew can man the gunner seats to fight off enemy planes trying to take the bomber down, and the support player with the wrench should be in seat 4 so he can instantly repair the plane when damage is taken. And then it's just a manner of rinse and repeat.
Like always in Battlefield , teamwork beats any team of lone wolf blueberries. And the same goes for opposing the Heavy bomber. If a team works together they will have this thing down before it reaches it's objective and it certainly won't be able to make repeating bombing runs.
