Attack choppers are broken, the nerf is needed. Ive been abusing them not by cheating but might as well be with how strong they are. The biggest problem is when those try hard vehicle mains join a server and just dominate completely. As a solo player theres not much you can do against 2 jets, a wildcat an atytack chopper with a gunner andd another attack chopper. They coordinate attacks and since majority of people play alone or are pretty bad when you get a group of people good in vehicles all coordinating attacxks even if youre an amazing player your team gets slaughtered.

Your comment is no sense.. because u said if tryharder join lobby bla bla bla.. if there is a gamer that is so fucking good with a specific weapon or vehicle is right that he destroys the server because is SKILLED, and cry about it is your problem.. in past bf is heli was strong the entire team istant delete him, cause u have potentially 32 stinger users AA and your heli and jet. U ask nerf heli because good players rightly destroy u. No thx go back to cod

Is there a way to spot the direction of the lock ons coming ? Like in bf4? I haven't figured out how to notice the directions of the lock ons in 2042, am I missing something?
07:32 oh my god I don't believe it. after two years? I wonder if they will actually fix it. You probably don't know Ghost because you haven't used these missiles in a jet or heli, but they are completely broken since the premiere. I don't want to promote myself, but I have a special compilation on my channel showing how these misslies don't work, so if anyone wants, you can check it out.
See the anti tank mine I feel was nerfed way too much. 3 now to take out heavy vehicles. It already takes dam near 4 rockets to take them out. It's an anti tank mine should technically take 1-2 it's what they are made for. Even if they only have u two mines.

Are you kidding me easier it takes 3-4 rockets for tanks that sit back in their spawn with Irish anti projectile put up making it impossible to kill them unless can get to them with c-5. Heli unlimited flare soon as you lock they run away after dump their flares till it. Comes back by then you're probably out of rockets. Vehicle are all op cause at least 128 there so many on the map at once. There really not many ppl that use anti tank mines as it is. Every uses McKay grapples and drops there c-5 which is impossible to defend you have to hope a teammate kills him first.

Yeah they're so hard to hit, with all the explosive spam and Casper drones, plus 3rd person view makes them easy to see.
You get 3 AT mines. I always drop all 3 in a close triangle formation so I guarantee a vehicle kill. I never drop 1 or 2 alone, so I am cool with the "change"
Do we have a concrete statement that "ajust visual recoil" is "less visual recoil" from DICE?
The attack helicopter didn't need a nerf to be honest. I think it's the scout helicopter (Nightbird) that needs the nerf not the attack helicopter. I'm pretty decent in an Attack helicopter and I've never got that close to that many kills while piloting the attack helicopter. It's the gunner seat that gets most of the kills in the attack helicopter not the pilot. My friends can get a lot of kills if I'm piloting them around and most of them are average players. It's based on pilot skills and the combination of communication.
The AT mine nerf makes me sad. I think two to destroy a tank is quite reasonable, leaving the one extra available for smaller vehicles or other creative uses

Let's hope they took the brawler into consideration with the at mine nerf. Before the prior nerfs, it took 3 mines to destroy a brawler (40 damage per mine), now it seems the brawler might be even more powerful.
I love how they call the S-70 Ohotnik which is a UCAV a "Stealth Bomber" LOL yet it plays a role more akin to a Strike Fighter, considering it has guns and missiles and can target ATA which Bombers typically do not do.

Not sure I understand the Vehicle Repair nerf tbh. I mean the repair gets canceled as soon as you take any dmg and with the amount of AT's in the game I undestand it even less.
Nothing about fixing the Lis rocket bug in co-op
Nothing on hit reg, mouse input, or anticheat....😭
Can we do 128 bot lobbies?
They’re doing with the grappling hook what they should have done literally years ago. The poxy grappling hook should never have been in the game to start with. People just use it like they’re Spider-Man.

They need to reverse the default settings on crossplay. Loading the game with cross play enabled places too much hope that enough players will dissengage it before entering the game, They never do, the result is when you turn cross play off (even with a brand new update where you'd expect player population to be at it's mose), with crossplay off. you will never find a server with enough players in it to start a game. Turning crossplay off will rapidly increase the number of populated console only servers enabled at launch, PC crossplay should be added as an option, we need types of play, native console only, crossgen console only & all out crossplay to include PC players for those with friend son PC who wish to join them. PC servers have now been hacked and cheats are available for this market, why place the security of the game on consoles at risk? Many play on consoles in order to avoid rampant cheating on the PC and now that option isn't there. Even without a hack programme injected PC players continue to enjoy a clear advantage over those on consoles in ,uch the same way as having some advantage in the game so crossplay seriously needs a second look. It's never been mentioned or questioned since the release of this game so you have to wonder why, Since it's something that the vast majority of console players don't want if this fails to get addressed then the nexts games sales will be severly affected.
There’s no value you could change to turn this into a great game.

With all these balancing changes, less play styles become viable. Rip Irish Tanker
Ah OK so just go back to using the M5 then instead of the AM40. Got it. Just take away the one thing that made it unique compared to the other high ROF ARs. It already has a shorter 6BTK range than the M5 to compensate for the short 10m 4BTK range. Standard issue is just exclusively worse than the M5 now rather than having a close range TTK advantage but a ranged TTK disadvantage.
Changes like this make me 100% sure i wont play next battlefield game.
Attack jet?!?! That's all we need to solve the steamrolling... i promise.
Another update and not nerfing to the damn scatter grenades 😒 so OP
It didn’t always take 3 mines to kill a tank???

Mackay was stupid and this is a decent nerf but this games dead anyway. Hopefully in the next battlefield game the soldiers wont have all these stupid over the top gadgets and goes back into a more grounded design. Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 1 are great examples for a battlefield that I thought was nearly perfect for infantry balance. The wild and wacky specialist gadgets ruined the flow of the gameplay.

In my opinion Falk is the best specialist I use her med pen on myself and others and I'm at tier 18 right now (yes I know that's low) not only can I give ammo but I'm the go-to medic for those who have complained on Reddit that they needed medics.

As a relatively new attack chopper pilot, the nerf to the weapons are a little too extreme, 15 or even 12% I feel would’ve been better. They mentioned the gunner and pilot duo being too strong which I agree with, and I feel that the gunner weapon should deal less damage to armor and be geared more towards infantry
They nerf all repair times besides the RAM/Bolte? lmao. fucking ram is the most OP vehicle in the game. Also the APS-36 Shootdown Sentinel should be removed from the game. certain maps are easy to trap people as long as you have 10 of these things up. They sleeping over at battlefield 2042. I love how SMGS like the K30 didn't receive a nerf yet I can out gun anyone with it lmao.
Nerfing rocket by 20% (3 rocket direct hit on inf for kill will become 4, with 10 rocket magazine) is horrifing, i play every match on heli, and ive a good gunner literally 1 on 30-40 matches, the most of the time im alone on heli noone join attack heli because is so weak, gunner cant shot properly cause the driver need to evade 22728 Lis tv missile 2 enemy stinger are enough for clean sky for every heli.. need to evade jet ram, jet lock, aa lock, ebemy heli lock, stinger lock(no passive radar protection so dumb on that) and Dice think to add more time to kill on attack heli.. good to improve the agility overall but the nerf is retarded. Need 14 hydra rocket and kill 1 tank in 10 direct hit, faster reload time for rocket, and passive radar on stinger on 80m altitude. Better splash damage for gunner and more time before overheat... thats is balanced. 2 stinger and 1 aa on 32 players are enough for clean sky.. wothout jet heli ram and more...pathetic dice want make battlefield like cod
